Book Review – Frostbite by Richelle Mead

Book Review – Frostbite by Richelle Mead

Richelle Mead ramps up the action, angst, and intense emotions in FROSTBITE. By the end, I didn't know whether to be happy or sad. I guess I should stop wasting time and read the next book. In FROSTBITE, the threat of the Strigoi increases, forcing Moroi and dhampirs to ...

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 – Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

Book Review – Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

Book Review: I've been wanting to read this book for a long time. I absolutely fell in love with Will and Lou's moments together. Characters with that kind of chemistry are rare. These two came to life on the page. But Lou's characterization and growth from beginning to end ...
