I stopped reading Exquisite Captive at the 20% mark. I’m just not that into you It’s not personal—Really. I didn’t hate you—Promise! I wasn’t ripping apart the pages. I just wasn’t that into you. …but it kind of breaks my heart. Jinnis are sooo cool! […]
I feel a bit let down with Landline. On the one hand, I actually quite liked the book as I was reading it. It was an interesting story and I loved the idea of Georgie communicating with the teenage version of her husband. It was […]
Let’s clarify some terms Before we begin, I need to set down some terminology for my review. As you probably know, the book Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld is two books in one, told in alternating chapters. One story is that of Darcy, a soon-to-be-published YA […]

Just like with the rest of the books in the series, I had almost a morbid fascination and obsession with The One. On the one hand, I absolutely hate the idea of a competition to become a bride. It’s disgusting. If I were America, I’d […]
In the beginning, I kind of liked Second Star. I felt really bad for Wendy and her family. I was really on her side—I supported her desperate attempts to find her brothers and her unwillingness to give up. And, at the beginning, I kind of […]
