Most Anticipated New Releases for June



  So I'm super excited for this month. For one it's my birth month, my birthday's the 15th, so I will get plenty of money to buy new books and some new releases I am VERY excited about.


A Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir
Genre: YA, Fantasy
Release Date: June 12

  Okay, so I love this series. If you haven't read, I finally recommend it. I can't talk too much about this book without spoiling the first two but the series revolves around two people: Laia, a young girl who is a Scholar, a group that is oppressed by the Martials, and is forced to become a slave of the Commandant in order to save her brother; and Elias, a Martial student at the Academy who ends up being one of the graduates who are competing to be the new ruler of the Empire. In this book, we got failing empires with a possibly crazy emperor and an underhanded Commandant; as well as a grim reaper type character. I'm tempted to reread the series before this book comes out because I'm drawing a few blanks on some of the details.


Neverworld Wake by Marisha Pessl
Genre: YA, Sci-Fi, Mystery
Release Date: June 5

  In high school Beatrice was one of the cool kids, living on cloud nine, until the shocking death of her boyfriend Jim. A year after she graduates, she returns to the estate where she and her friends spent most of their high school days, hoping to find some answers about her late boyfriend's death. However, a mysterious man tells her that time has become stuck. I don't know why this book is giving me Pretty Little Liars vibes and I'm really excited.


A Thousand Beginnings and Endings by Ellen Oh

Release Date: June 26

  So this book is essentially a collection of retellings of East and South Asian mythologies and folklores. Some of the authors are: Renee Ahdied, Sona Charaipotra, and Roshani Chokshi to name a few of the authors in this book.

Lock Every Door Review

Image
 Okay, so I figured that everyone that wants to reads this book has already read it, but GUYS, this book was so good! As much as I want to talk to people about all the spoilery things that happened, I know that I need to make this review a push for people that are on the fence or people that insist they aren't going to read this book, to read it. So, the book is about a woman named Jules who, at the beginning of the book, was let go from her job and broke up with her cheating boyfriend in the same day or at least relatively close together, and finds a job listing that she can't turn down. Apartment sitting for 3 months accruing her a total of 12 thousand dollars at the prestigious Bartholomew, a glamorous and secretive apartment complex in Manhattan. While things seem a bit off, such as the rules that she's not allowed to have visitors or that she's not allowed to sleep away from the property, but Jules chalks it to the other tenants wanting their privacy, si

Microphones and Murders Review

    It's time for another ARC review. I did receive this book via Edelweiss, so shout out to them, but this is a cozy mystery centered around two sisters creating a true-crime podcast. There is representation for those that are hard of hearing since there is a character who is now completely deaf (I don't know how well this is done because I do not fit into this demographic and to my knowledge, this isn't own voices for it). But the book is about Liv Olson who used to work as a sound engineer in the #1 podcast series in the country, but now has given up that job to start her own podcast with her younger stepsister, Camry, called Missing or Murdered and the first season is surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Clark, a young woman who went missing after a Youtube video of her went viral that wasn't the most flattering. So Liv and Camry decide to head to Santa Maria to investigate.    Oh my gosh, is this so lighthearted and fun. It's very much a stereotypical c

Murder Monday #7 The Parachute Murder

    Okay, if there was ever a way to end the month of love it's with talking about the Parachute Murder, granted I never heard of it before I started researching for the blog, but oh boy are you guys in for a doozy.    So, everything started on November 18, 2006, when Els Van Doren, Els Clottemans, and Marcel Somers went skydiving together and it ended up with Van Doren's primary and reserve parachute failing to deploy, causing her to fall to her death from the height of over 2 miles. The police established that the cords of the parachute had been cut and Van Doren's video camera captured the dive (I have no idea if the video is out there, but I didn't really want to watch someone plummet to their death.) As the police continued the investigation and learned of a love triangle between the three of them, in which Clottemans was in love with Sommers and Sommers was in love with Van Doren AND Van Doren and Clottemans had a sexual relationship with Sommers. So Clotte
