Strands of Bronze and Gold was written well and certainly had interesting elements, but unfortunately the majority of the book was boring. The problem is that once Sophia arrives at the Abbey, Bernard doesn’t let her go anywhere or do anything. As such, 95% of […]

Unremembered by Jessica Brody
Unremembered has everything I love in a sci-fi: genetics, evil corporations, love, technology, and conspiracy. It’s almost like it was made for me! However, I have to warn you. This story isn’t exactly original. It’s awesome, and I loved it, but it is one of […]
Ashes and Ice by Rochelle Maya Callen
I think Ashes and Ice is a solid case of “not for me”. Although it wasn’t a perfect book overall, the main reason I’m giving this book 2.5 stars is because the plot took a direction that ultimately isn’t in line with my personal tastes. […]
Mind Games by Kiersten White
Mind Games was an okay book, but I was hoping it would be a lot better. The book isn’t nearly as intense or action-packed as I thought it would be. I think the problem with this book is that Fia is actually crazy. I went […]
Shades of Earth by Beth Revis
Death will come on swift wings to whomsoever opens this book. This. Book. Has. So. Much. Death. Beth Revis is like a fiction mass murderer. I did not expect so many people to die in Shades of Earth. It’s written like a realistic war book. […]
Pivot Point by Kasie West
If there is any book in the world that can give you a book orgasm, it’s this one. Pivot Point is not just one of my favourite books. Screw favourite book of the month, or favourite book of the year. Screw favourite paranormal or favourite […]
Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout
I guess it might be worth noting right off the bat that I have not read Vampire Academy. Everyone always compares these books but I can’t since I haven’t read VA. 😛 There, I’ve said it. Moving on. Overall, I really liked Half-Blood. It had […]
Monstrous Beauty by Elizabeth Fama
I have read no other book like Monstrous Beauty. We have mermaids, ghosts, history, lineage, love, heartbreak, and a fascinating story with multiple characters whose lives, deaths, and fates are all intertwined. I love how Monstrous Beauty is told in two different time periods: modern […]
Beta by Rachel Cohn
Beta was so much darker than I anticipated! If you’re looking for a light, interesting read about clones, look somewhere else. Beta has suicide, heartbreak, murder, drugs, rape, and slavery! WOW! Totally not what I expected, but I ended up loving it. This book is […]
Burning Blue by Paul Griffin
Wow, I absolutely ADORED this book! Burning Blue is told from two main points of view: Jay and entries from Nicole’s diary. There are a few others as well (like notes from the therapists), but those two are the key ones. Jay was a fabulous […]
