Spies and Prejudice started out really strong for me. I loved Berry’s voice, her name (!!), her whole “spy girl” thing, and her Saint Bernard. The plot was interesting, the best friend character (Mary Chris) was great.. We were rolling! But then my interest dropped […]

Review & Giveaway: Transparent by Natalie Whipple
Transparent was so much fun! I thought this book sounded awesome, but then I got nervous when I read several ‘meh’ reviews of it. But luckily, I ended up really loving the book! In some ways, Transparent almost read like a contemporary book. It’s not […]
Review & Giveaway: Wild Awake by Hilary T. Smith
I am so completely confused by Wild Awake. I read it, and I swear nothing happened. If you were to ask me to describe the plot of this book or the major conflict, I would have no idea what to tell you. Because there isn’t […]
Blog Tour Review & Giveaway: The Rules for Disappearing by Ashley Elston
I had hopes and expectations for this book, and I think they were met 100%. I loved the idea of The Rules for Disappearing because witness protection fascinates me. I love movies and TV shows about it, but I had never read a book about […]
September Girls by Bennett Madison
In a summary, September Girls is: Despite hearing some scary things about this book, I tried to go into it hopeful. I actually didn’t hate it right away. Then the awkward sexual sentences started rolling in randomly… but I still didn’t hate it. They were […]
The Program by Suzanne Young
Wowie, The Program book was awesome! Even though the synopsis hints at a love story, I didn’t expect it to dominate the book the way it did. I think I expected more of a sci-fi than a romance, but I was pleasantly surprised to find […]
Natural Born Angel by Scott Speer
My enjoyment for Natural Born Angel is all over the map, and that’s one of the reasons why I was so unsure about how to rate it (and I’m still kind of unsure). That means, it’s time to whip out the ol’ Enjoyment Graph so […]
Pretty Girl-13 by Liz Coley
Pretty Girl-13 completely took me by surprise! This book is really heavy. It’s dark, gritty, and deals with some seriously intense issues. I adored this book, but not in the usual girly, giddy, fan-girl-scream way. I adored Pretty Girl-13 in the sense that it really […]
If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch
I assumed that If You Find Me would be emotionally gripping and different—just from the synopsis—and it certainly delivered! The whole idea behind this book is just so sad and crazy, but the most mind blowing part is that it could easily be real. Carey […]
Review & Giveaway: MILA 2.0 by Debra Driza
MILA 2.0 was everything I hoped it would be: intense, action-packed, and filled with awesome technology. But it was also more than that: it had a TOTALLY SWOONY romance—but it didn’t dominate the story, and it had one of the most alive characters I’ve ever […]
