Furyborn is a REALLY cool story with two different timelines that relate and intersect. The prologue shows you the outcome of Queen Rielle’s timeline, then chapter one takes you two years back to explain how events led up to that outcome.

The first time I read Heir of Fire I gave it 2.5 stars (here’s my first review). But I just did a reread and gave it five stars! I think this is really interesting so I want to talk a bit about why I think […]
I need to say right off the bat that THE ENDING KICKS ASS!! It was so exciting, intense, and full of death! OMG! Aaaanyway! There was a bit of a romance/love triangle in Red Queen but it was subtle. I was glad for that because […]
WOAH! When totally ROCKED! Let me put this in perspective for you… I was struggling to get through Love and Other Theories. Like, really struggling. It took me two or three days just to get to 40%. It sucked. Then I got approved for When […]

I think there’s something wrong with me. I didn’t love Heir of Fire! 🙁 I look around and see people talking about loving it, about having cried and bawled their eyes out. But me? I was kind of bored. The book is 569 pages long, […]
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! […]
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 […]
I’m bummed that Tiger’s Promise was only a novella; I could have read a whole book about Yesubai! I adored Yesubai’s story. It was inspiring, but tragic. There was a constant feeling of dread as I was reading the book (like “I think something bad […]
