I’ve had my eyes on this book since the COVER REVEAL. So please, tell me why it took me so damn long to pick it up? If a friend hadn’t loaned it to me, I wonder if I still would be waiting to read it. And I loved it. I love this concept. It entertains […]
I had so much fun with A Week of Mondays. To be honest, I picked it up not really knowing anything about it, except that it was on my book club reading list and I liked the cover LOL! What worked: Groundhog day! Okay not really groundhog day, but I’ve always loved that movie and […]
I enjoyed Zero Day – I think it was definitely a good thing that the politics were so minor, since I’m feeling very political these days! What Worked: characters – loved Adie and felt like the portrayal of her brainwashing was fairly well done. I liked the difficulty she had trusting her parents or believing in them. […]
Wow Wake of Vultures was unexpectedlygood! I just love the mixing of Texas History with a paranormal world. And it’s such a different, interesting interpretation of a paranormal world! The types of monsters we encounter range from Greek mythology to trickster tales of the Native Americans. There’s a lot going on with gender and sexuality here too. […]
How have I ended up reading two books in a matter of a month about a sociopath?! I really enjoyed the main character Jaz. But holy hell, it’s awkward. I liked him more than my other sociopath read because he’s actively trying to be good – he reminds himself frequently that “people matter.” How awkward […]
I didn’t enjoy United near as much as the other books in the series. It was fine – but I feel like the plot went from plausibly unrealistic to incredibly unrealistic. There’s this whole conflict with another alien race and I just didn’t buy the way things were handled. World leaders – human and alien […]
So A Promise of Fire was my October TBR List Pick, but I stay a full month behind on reviews… because I read THAT slow. I listened to A Promise of Fire and I really enjoyed the narrator, Mia Barron. She had great voices and I think she helped me grow attached to the characters […]
It almost reminded me of a movie I watched as a Teenager. I thought I creepy house, feelings of dread and a group of teenagers? Yes, please! That was until I read it. Ok so don’t get me wrong this book wasn’t bad…BUT….it takes quite a few pages to get to the really good parts, […]
I am not sure what I expected when I started this book. The cover was gorgeous and it reminded me of a cross between Alice in Wonderland and Willy Wonka. I liked the flow of the story and the writing was very descriptive. The story is told in Scarlett’s POV and I will be honest […]
