I began reading this book thinking I would get a suspense novel centered around a broken relationship and that is what I got, to a certain extent. Carter and Lilah are a golden couple, but when times get rocky things, of course, start to fall apart. Lilah is quite obviously mentally ill. Her parents […]

We Were Liars By E. Lockhart
We all know the danger of reading a much-hyped book, especially if you read and review so many, so I went into We Were Liars half expecting to be blown away, half expecting to be disappointed. I really loved this book, but I think it was for reasons that might differ from those […]
Side Effects May Vary By Julie Murphy
“Maybe I should have let it be a good thing and maybe I should have left all the horrible parts of me there in that hallway to be forgotten in that graveyard of memories, but I didn’t know how to do that. I didn’t know how to separate out the wrong parts of […]

Into The Still Blue By Veronica Rossi
When I first picked up Under The Never Sky, I admit that I wasn’t expecting enjoy it as much as I did. I confess that to you now because I have totally and completely changed my mind about this series. It has become one that I recommend to readers of all ages. Into The […]

Untold by Sarah Rees Brennan
“Kami had never been like other people. She had never had to cry herself to sleep alone. It was overwhelming to realize that there was not going to be any comfort ever again. She was going to spend the rest of her life living the way other people did, in terrible everyday loneliness, […]
Fire With Fire by Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian
“Later, when I think about the look in Reeve’s eyes, and I remember what he said about how there should be consequences for the bad things people do, I feel dread, because I know he’s right. There will be consequences, for all of us.” – eGalley pg. 335 I was so happy to be […]
Dark Triumph by R.L. LaFevers
Dark Triumph certainly lives up to its name and brings the darkness. In this riveting follow-up to Grave Mercy, Robin LaFevers does not hold back when giving us Sybella’s story. I was not overly fond of Sybella in Grave Mercy, but I am sure that you will grow to admire and love her as […]
