Review: Useless Magic

Useless Magic Useless Magic by Florence Welch
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

#PopsugarReadingChallenge2019
Prompt - A book written by a musician (fiction or nonfiction): Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine

I make songs to tie people to me, with a ribbon of fantasy around their necks. Such a beautiful bow that I hold in my fist. And will not let go.

Short and lyrical. Literally. The book was full of her song lyrics. While I wish it held more of her poetry, I can see from her drawings, doodles, notes, and the way she sings that she puts all of herself into her art. I feel, like I usually do when listening to her music, that I understand her a little more. That she's given us another piece of herself.

And I still think that The End of Love is one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

Review: Dirty Money

Dirty Money by Liliana Hart My rating: 5 of 5 stars This really wasn't long enough. The story stops at 88% for some reason, but fine. I'll accept that because it was awesome! The stakes were extremely high this time around after the cliffhanger in the last book. I'm happy that Jack and Jaye are evolving as a married couple while dealing with old ghosts. This book wrapped up a 4-book story arc, and while it feels like a good place to end, I hope that it doesn't. View all my reviews
