BOOK REVIEW: 'Don't Read the Comments' by Eric Smith ❄ I received Don’t Read the Comments from NetGalley, in exchange of an honest review. ❄ Don’t Read the Comments was a very amusing and emotional story about the online gaming community. The characters Divya and Aaron live their lives as young adults trying to make life better for their families while playing their favorite game Reclaim the Sun. Diverse representation was also proudly featured in this story, having the main characters be people of color. ❄ Don’t Read the Comments describes the harassment women face within the gaming community in explicit detail. It was truly heartbreaking reading about Divya’s dilemma as online trolls threaten her very livelihood, and that of her close friends. The story also details the apathy many people carry around when it comes to the safety of children playing online games. These are different times, where many social experiences are communicated online. ❄ The overall themes expressed in this story are friendship and trust. Divya and Aaron live in separate regions, yet they learn to communicate without reservation from the moment they’re placed together by circumstance. It was sweet reading each interaction as they learn more about each other’s lives! ❄ Don’t Read the Comments is a heartfelt book that features the power of community within the gaming world. I highly recommend it! ❄ Rating: 5/5 Stars

'People see what they wish to see. And in most cases, what they are told that they see'. So far this is my favorite line in 'The Night Circus'. I'm really loving this book so far!

BOOK REVIEW: Collateral Damage by Lynette Eason ❄ **Thank you Revell Reads for providing me a complimentary copy!** ❄ Collateral Damage is a definite page-turner! As I was reading, I became so absorbed with the characters' actions in every scene. Brooke and Asher are two individuals brought together through the circumstances of war and trauma. The story progresses as their war-time experiences converge in the normally safe environment of home, now heavily complicated. ❄ I found this story very fast-paced, as the mysteriously dangerous figures in the book kept me in suspense, along with guessing who may be the one out for Brooke's life. The twist in the book occurs before the mystery is revealed, but its weight carries the shocking consequence of the key players through the end. ❄ If you love a book with mystery and suspense, then Collateral Damage is the book for you! ❄ ❄ Rating: 4/5 Stars

I love that my new OwlCrate booksleeve can carry multiple books on my January TBR! It's so roomy! * * * * * #OCTrickery #owlcrate #owlcrateunboxing #subscriptionbox #bookstagram #photochallenge #bookcommunity #bookblogger #bookfinds #readingcorner
