About Me


Hiya! I'm Faith! I'm a Canadian university student who loves reading and reviewing books, mostly YA. (Note: I'm trying to branch out into other genres! If you have any recommendations for adult books that read like YA, let me know!!) I can read a book in a day (depending on size and interest, of course) if I'm not too busy. I've basically given up on the dystopian genre but I'm currently obsessed with books featuring the Greek Gods and unique fantasy novels. If you meet me in real life, you will probably find a book near me. You might also find at least one blue article of clothing on person at all times. 

 Some of my favourite authors are Sarah J Maas, Marissa Meyer and Rick Riordan. (They can do no wrong) 

 If you have any recommendations, shoot them my way! And if you tell me what you're interested in, I can totally swamp you with recs. Kinda new at this blog thing, but I'm excited to see how this goes!

Favourite YA Historical Fiction Novels (as of August 2017)

I feel like Historical YA fiction is kind of an underrated genre. YA Dystopian novels used to be huge back in the Hunger Games craze and now YA Fantasy and YA contemporary Romances are popular. A lot of the Historical YA books can run a little young sometimes but here's some of my favourites.

ARC Review: Stay Sweet by Siobhan Vivian

Rating: 3 stars. I received an ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. (Thank you!) Stay Sweet is a book about ice cream, friendship and feminism. The main character Amelia is tasked this summer with keeping the town's famous ice cream stand open after tragedy strikes. She has to work with the owner's nephew, a cute college boy, and struggles to maintain her friendship with her best friend.  What I really liked about this book was Amelia's emotional growth. She starts the book almost kind of whiny. Amelia doubts her ability to be a leader, doesn't think that she's very fun, and is wondering why she was chosen to be the manager of the ice cream stand. As the book progresses, Amelia discovers her passions and becomes more confident, which I really loved seeing.  I also really liked the diary entries from the owner of the ice cream when she started making ice cream during WW2. I did feel like there was a point where there were too many, but I do real...

ARC Review: Welcome to the Slipstream by Natalka Burian

Rating: 1.5 stars.  I received an ARC on NetGalley in exchange for a honest review. (Thanks!) You know that feeling you get sometimes when you are watching a foreign film? The feeling that something of the importance that is happening is a bit lost on you because you're missing that context? That's sort of how I feel about this book. I would say that this novel was definitely unique, but I just wasn't knocked off my feet by it. I'm sure some people will like it, but I just don't think the writing was for me. Welcome to the Slipstream is about Van, a girl who moves a lot because of her mother's mental illness. Van's mom is a genius, but her mental illness makes her a bit difficult for people to deal with so she constantly changes jobs. The constant in Van's life is her surrogate grandmother, who helps to keep her mother sane. They move to Vegas, where Van discovers her dream of being in a band. But when her mother goes off to a self-help cult,...
