Hi, booklovers! I'm glad you stopped by! :)

A little about me: I'm a YA sci-fi/fantasy author (with some children's and women's lit on the side). I'm also the proud owner/creator of a fandom candle shop called The Bookish Flame. You can find it on Etsy @ www.etsy.com/shop/thebookishflame and on IG @thebookishflame .

What else I do: When not writing, I spend time with my furry best friend, Mennie, do yoga (YWA community), fangirl over Doctor Who (River + 11 = Forever) and take photos for my #bookstagram (@authorjenniferlkelly). I also post unboxing videos and book reviews on my YouTube channel (JenniferKelly427) a couple of times a week.

Who I love: Some of my favorite authors include Maggie Stiefvater, JK Rowling, Leigh Bardugo, Marissa Meyer, ...more

Crooked Kingdom (A YA Book Review)

Crooked Kingdom (A YA Book Review):

In a nutshell: Whereas, SoC was a fast-paced heist, CK is a slow simmer. As Kaz would say, brick by brick. A great ending to the duology with the possibility of more down the line. 4/5 stars.
