This is the second book I've read from Kasie West. What I like about her is that you know what you're going to get before you crack open the book: a really cute young adult romance that will make you smile. P.S. I Like You is like being engulfed in a nice warm hug. Bored ...
Book Review – Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake
May 24, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Anna Dressed in Blood has a spooky charm that pulled me in. Cas's dark and witty voice combined with Anna's general badassery made this book such a blast to read from start to finish. Though, I wasn't really sold on the romance part of the story. Cas hunts and ...
Book Review – When We Collided by Emery Lord
May 23, 2016 by · 2 Comments
When We Collided is the first book I've read by Emery Lord. While I appreciate the author peeling back the curtain and shedding light on mental illness, specifically bipolar disorder, I had too many issues with the writing style, characterization, and plot to enjoy this ...
Book Review – Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys
May 3, 2016 by · 14 Comments
Book Review: Note: I read this book and then reread it by listening to it on audio. My audiobook comments are at the end. It is not often that a book as special as this one comes around. Ruta Sepetys's prose shines in this haunting fictional account of the most tragic ...
Book Review – Whisper to Me by Nick Lake
April 25, 2016 by · 3 Comments
Book Review: It’s weird. I’m writing this to you, and you haven’t walked into my life yet. But I guess you already know when you first saw me. It’s like a wood in ancient Greece, a leafy glade. I’m here, and the voice is here—the echo—and we’re just waiting for you, for ...
Book Review – The Crown’s Game by Evelyn Skye
April 20, 2016 by · 1 Comment
Book Review: The setting combined with the interesting premise of a duel to the death made me pick up Skye's debut. I enjoyed the author's vivid depictions of the Russian scenery but the romance felt contrived rather than organic. The Crown's Game is initiated by the ...
Book Review – The Glittering Court by Richelle Mead
April 7, 2016 by · 4 Comments
Book Review: The Glittering Court is the first book in Richelle Mead's new fantasy/historical-like series that I would describe as an Elizabethan "The Bachelor with ladies' choice" meets colonial America meets the Gold Rush. That's a lot to take in, I know. As a loyal fan ...
Book Review – Never Never Part Three by Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher
April 6, 2016 by · 4 Comments
Book Review: I have enjoyed novels written by both Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher, but the Never Never series was a stinker. This series didn't leave me clamoring for more like I was hoping for after these authors announced they were collaborating. Even though I didn't ...
Book Review – Blood Passage by Heather Demetrios
March 1, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Book Review: Heather Demetrios takes readers back into the beautiful world of the Dark Caravan Cycle with Blood Passage, which was inspired by 1001 Arabian Nights. While there were some moments that were a little slow, this book takes readers on quite an exciting ...

Book Review: In Real Life was so freaking cute! It will take you back to the time when you experienced your first love. You know, when you were a ball of nerves and wanted to know if the other person liked you as much as you liked them? Well imagine that scenario but the ...
