Book Review: Mercy Road by Ann Howard Creel

Mercy Road by Ann Howard Creel is a book that has a really interesting concept. The involvement of women in the First World War is not something that I have read much about before. It is so interesting and awe inspiring to learn about the American Women’s Hospital. While I enjoyed the story and the main character, the side characters are not very complex. Continue reading →

🐘Super excited to reread The Magician’s Eleph 🐘Super excited to reread The Magician’s Elephant before watching the new movie on Netflix this weekend! Thanks so much @penguinrandomca for the review copy. It’s one of my favourite middle grade books. ❤️
I’m super excited to share my review for ITS ALL I’m super excited to share my review for ITS ALL IN HOW YOU FALL by Sarah Henning on the blog today! 

It’s All in How You Fall by Sarah Henning combines sports with matchmaking as it follows a gymnast who must move forward after a career-ending injury. As a sucker for sports books, I loved the assortment of new sports that the main character explores, and the characters within the story have a sweet dynamic. This one left me with a smile on my face, and I would consider it a perfect feel-good summer read.

Be sure to check out my full review and favourite quotes from the book on the blog. (link in bio)

Thank you @tbrbeyondtours & @shhenning for the review copy!
