Daughter of Smoke & Bone is a lyrical, emotionally rich fantasy with vivid characters, stunning world-building, and a story that balances beauty with darkness. As the second Paper + Word Book Club pick, it completely drew me in — slow to start, but impossible to put down once it found its footing.

ARC review of Fatewoken by Juliet Lockwood — a divine fantasy full of fated bonds, dangerous Gods, and one epic twist that left me speechless. A strong 4-star start to The Fates Trilogy.

A cosy fantasy filled with warmth, hearth-magic, and one unforgettable cat. Delemhach’s The House Witch is a gentle, heart-warming read that balances magic, romance, and comfort — perfect for fans of low-stakes stories and slow-burn charm.

Cosmic love, collapsing realities, and a glossary that saved my lurgy-fried brain — Limerence by L.S. Delorme is a beautifully weird fantasy that blurs the line between devotion and destruction. Dreamy, dense, and absolutely worth the effort.
