My Dust and Grim tour spot!

 


Book Info:

Dust & Grim by Chuck Wendig

Genre: Middle-Grade Fantasy

Publishing Date: October 5, 2021

 


Synopsis:

Miss Peregrine meets The Graveyard Book in this middle-grade adventure about rival siblings running a monster mortuary—written by bestselling author Chuck Wendig.

Thirteen-year-old Molly doesn’t know how she got the short end of the stick—being raised by her neglectful father—while Dustin, the older brother she’s never met, got their mother and the keys to the family estate. But now the siblings are both orphaned, she’s come home for her inheritance, and if Dustin won’t welcome her into the family business, then she’ll happily take her half in cash.

There’s just one problem: the family business is a mortuary for monsters, and Molly’s not sure she’s ready to deal with mysterious doors, talking wolves, a rogue devourer of magic, and a secret cemetery. It’s going to take all of Dustin’s stuffy supernatural knowledge and Molly’s most heroic cosplay (plus a little help from non-human friends) for the siblings to figure it out and save the day… if only they can get along for five minutes.

Bestselling author Chuck Wendig’s middle-grade debut is equal parts spooky, funny, and heartfelt—perfect for Halloween and year-round reading!

All of Us Villains Review! 5 Stars!!

All of us Villains is written by Amanda Foody and Christine Lynn Hermen. I want to first say a big thank you to them, the publisher Gollancz, and Netgalley for providing me a free copy to review! So let's get into it. I was not fully prepared on just how much I would grow to care about the characters. Even though these characters are not nice people (trust me they are not), the writers still ensure that they come across as human which I think is really important when writing these types of characters as it gives them an element of depth.

Edie In Between Review!

  "As it is above, so below" Edie in Between written by Laura Sibson is such a fantastic witchy read! I adore all of the witchy elements in this book including tarot, crystals, spells, rituals, magic, and finding magical items! One thing I really loved was the lgbtqia+ representation in this book, I felt like it was very well done! So if you love sapphic reads, Edie in Between is definitely for you! The relationship built in this story I felt was really well developed! I also love the way that grief is handled in this story, the fact that it is not something you just get over, but it stays with you always. Sometimes as Edie learned that grief can be a reminder of love, which is in itself is a powerful form of magic. I think the way that it was handled sensitively through the plot was really well done. I also loved the language used in this story, especially when it came to magic. It also helped to make the story more immersive which I really liked. I think my only issue was t
