The Drama!

The Favorites by Layne Fargo

April 16, 2026 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

Iykyk- this novel brings to life Caity Weaver’s infamous and amazing 2018 tweet about the Canadians ice ‘skating’ to Moulin Rouge, just switch it up with Americans and seven different covers of Wicked Game. Katarina Shaw has always been determined to become an Olympic ice dancer. With her childhood sweetheart Heath Rocha as her partner, it looks as if their championship dreams are destined to come true. But the road to gold never does run smooth and their partnership seems to come to a messy […]

XOXO Tiffin Academy

The Academy by Elin Hilderbrand and Shelby Cunningham

January 29, 2026 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

Spending a year at a prestigious New England boarding school would have been the dream of little high school me. Teaching for a year at a prestigious New England boarding school probably sounds a little bit more like a nightmare. It’s move-in day at Tiffin Academy. As the students return it is also the same day that school rankings are published. Amazingly Tiffin has made a seventeen spot jump to number two in the country. Take that Phillips Exeter! Just as everyone begins getting comfortable […]

Book of Night

Watch The Shadows

Book Of Night by Holly Black

Thief Of Night by Holly Black

January 20, 2026 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

For my birthday this year I decided to read both books in the Charlatan Duology, Holly Black’s Book Of Night and Thief Of Night. I’m a lucky, lucky little shadow creature. Charlie Hall is a (mostly) former con-artist trying to go straight and send her little sister to college. She used to be the Charlatan, an intriguingly effective thief willing to work in the world of shadow magicians.  With just a little blood and a lot of trauma you too can waken your shadow for […]
