Afterward By Jennifer Mathieu
Afterward is a book that gives you a peek behind the curtain of the type of high-profile kidnapping story you might see sensationalized on national news. What happens when the cameras turn off and the families go home and try to rebuild their lives? Ethan and Caroline knew of each other in their […]
Blog Tour: Ask Me How I Got Here
Welcome to my stop in the blog tour for Ask Me How I Got Here by Christine Heppermann. After you’ve read my thoughts, dont fogt to check out theother posts on the tour and the giveaway. I love novels in verse and I think they work especially well when taking on sensitive subjects. […]
The Winner’s Kiss By Marie Rutkoski
I was both eager and fearful when I started this book. Each installment of this series was the best kind of painful and, especially in the last book, I knew that any happiness in the end would be bittersweet and hard-won. The end of book two was pretty grim and I was first and foremost […]
Ex Libris Audio: A Gathering Of Shadows
A Gathering of Shadows jumps right back into the world of Red London (or at least the sea in that world) with Lila trapped on a boat….and a scene that unfolds in a way that reminded me immediately why I love this series so much. Lila is still my favorite, with her murky motivations […]
Ex Libris Audio: A Darker Shade Of Magic
I love this author’s books and I really don’t know why I waited to listen to this one. Magic and parallel worlds are right up my reading ally, so to speak. I was immediately intrigued by the idea of several Londons. (Let’s be honest, I was intrigued by everything. Also, I want Kell’s coat.) The […]
Other Broken Things By Christa Desir
From the outside, Nat seems to benefit from her privilege; she got drunk, got in a wreck, her dad paid for a lawyer, and she got some court ordered rehab and AA meetings. As you dive deeper into the story, you see that Nat is a person who struggles under the weight of two unhappy […]
Winter By Marissa Meyer
Oh, what’s to say about Winter that hasn’t already been said? I’m not sure I can contribute anything very original to the giant chorus of voices lauding the last installment in this wonderful series. I loved it. It was long, yes, but I was glad for that. I was no ready for this series to […]
Dumplin’ By Julie Murphy
There is something about Willowdean’s confidence in who she is (smart, hardworking, funny) and who she is not (defined by her dress size or any other physical characteristic) that made me wish I was more like her in almost every way. I think that is the magic of this book, that you are 100% […]
Six Of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
I’ll just go ahead and get this out of the way – Six of Crows lives up to the hype 100%. There. Now, I’ll say that I loved the detail and pace of this book that seemed to deftly balance world building with action. It’s difficult to get my cynical book bloggers heart to yearn […]
