About Me
Hi my name is Ava and I am a passionate reader and lover of all things books, writing and dogs. Penelope and Coral are my number one reading buddies, but there is always room for more! I love reading, reviewing and writing about many genres but some of my all time favorites are horror, fantasy and thrillers. The goal of this blog is to share my honest book reviews, reading recommendations and (my favorite part) discussing our favorite books and authors.
