Beyond Pride and Prejudice: The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennet by Lindz McLeod

April 18, 2025 by Vic

Despite what the title suggests, Lindz McLeod’s The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennet (out April 29th) is in fact a Pride and Prejudice retelling that centers Charlotte Lucas, Lizzie’s best friend, who marries the dull Mr. Collins. Set four years after the original novel, McLeod’s story begins with Mr. Collins’s death, a rather somber start that quickly brightens upRead More

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Now that I’m twice the age of many of the protagonists in Young Adult books, I have a different relationship with them.

Carolina reviews The Unraveling of Cassidy Holmes by Elissa R. Sloan

November 25, 2020 by Danika Ellis

I’m ashamed to admit I have always preferred boy bands to girl groups. I was a massive One Direction fan back in the day, and still have so much love for each of the boys (especially Harry <3).
