I wasn’t sure what to expect from Dreamstrider, but I knew from the jacket copy that it was going to be different than anything I had read lately, and I was right! Livia has a very rare ability and it has lifted her out of a horrifying existence as a Tunneler and […]

Blog Tour + Giveaway: Illuminae
Welcome to my stop on the Illuminae tour. I am very excited to share my thoughts about this unique book! The first time I saw Illuminae in ARC form, I almost had a heart attack because this book is massive. However, the publicist promised me I would love its unique delivery and she was […]

Firewalker By Josephine Angelini
When we left Lily, she was burning herself on a pyre so that she and Rowan could escape the dangers of the other Salem. Much of Firewalker was spent trying to build Lily’s army, or at least decide what to do, in her world. I really loved seeing Rowan and Lily in the […]

The Fire Sermon By Francesca Haig
This book almost flew under my radar, and I am so glad that it was brought to my attention. It’s hard for a post-apocalyptic book to make it on my crowded reading list in this somewhat saturated market, but the plot and pacing of The Fire Sermon drew me into its brutal and interesting story. […]
Ex Libris Audio: Red Rising
There are books that lend themselves well to the audio format, and some that are perhaps better when read. I think that Red Rising falls into the latter category. The extreme details and references to locations (the print version had a map) made me wish I had the book. I found myself vacillating between fascination […]
Ex Libris Audio: The Martian
I could go on for hours and hours about how well Andy Weir captured NASA. The bureaucracy, the passion of the engineers, the disdain the astronauts have for being told what to do…..all of it created a world that, while set in a place where NASA was adequately funded, is still realistic. At its core, […]
