ARC Review: Bookworm by Robin Yeatman

Published on by Celeste4 Comments

Today’s review is about BOOKWORM by Robin Yeatman, a debut dark comedy about imagination and the alleged dangers of reading. Don’t let the seemingly jovial cover art fool you, though. BOOKWORM just might validate that women are free thinkers and reading does give them ideas.

Today’s review is about LEDGE by Stacey McEwan, a fast-paced, dark fantasy romance. At less than 300 pages, it’s an escapist read that I thought had influences from THE DARK CRYSTAL and THE HUNGER GAMES.
