Book Review
House of Hunger takes place in a world ruled by blood. In the impoverished slums of this fictional land--unnamed yet reminiscent of industrial-era England--we meet 20 year-old Marion Shaw, a young woman desperate to change her circumstances. She dreams of escaping to the far north, where wealthy aristocrats live lives of luxury and bloodlust. Literally—they indenture “bloodmaids,” young women who bleed so that they may drink. When a mysterious job opening presents her with an opportunity to join the upper echelons of society, Marion leaves behind everything she knows to be a bloodmaid to countess Lisavet of the infamous House of Hunger.

One Direction Songs as Books. Top Story - April 2021.
Have you ever been listening to One Direction and thought, “gosh, I would love to read a book that has the same vibe as this song?” Probably not. But, on the off chance that you have, the list below is for you. I can’t exactly explain my methodology here—I just took the idea and ran with it. Whether you're a directioner or not, I recommend all the books on this list.

Books for People Who Are Addicted to Fanfiction
Fanfiction has become my safe place for the past few months of the pandemic. While I love “real” books, the combination of Zoom and general pandemic fatigue robbed me of a lot of my motivation to read. At the end of the day, I often found myself craving comfort and instant gratification that I couldn't find in books. After talking to a friend about fanfics, I rediscovered ao3, a middle school obsession of mine that I never guessed would return to my life ten years down the road. I read one fic, and I was a goner. For the last few months of 2020, I only read fan fiction, and I loved it. I still do. I love the angst, the sexy romances, the familiar characters, the warm and fuzzy feeling I get from a particularly good scene.
