4 Nuts Why is it that so many books in YA hinge on the deception and lies of the two love interests to one another? Had this book not had so much of it I probably would have given it a full 5 stars. Honestly, that trope gets a little old. But I suppose that […]

This tag comes from A Clockwork Reader and is about one of my favorite animated shows of all time, Avatar: The Last Airbender. Let’s get started, shall we? Water: Katara and Sokka- Best sibling relationship. I really like the relationship between Eadlynn and her brother in The Heir and The Crown, the two spin off books from […]
