This Raging Light By Estelle Laure
Ever since I read Homecoming by Cynthia Voight, I have been fascinated by the story of kids being abandoned by their parents and having to make it on their own. I know that sounds a little messed up and perhaps that says something about me, but whatever it means, it was […]
Orbiting Jupiter By Gary D. Schmidt
Orbiting Jupiter was first brought to my attention by Entertainment Weekly’s blurb about ‘What’s Hot in YA’ fall releases. I am so glad I saw that article because this was a book that has been with me since I finished it. The narrative is interesting because everything is told from the perspective of […]

Kate’s quest is revenge, and […]
Waiting On Wednesday
Waiting on Wednesday is a feature hosted by Breaking The Spine where I talk about books that I am eagerly anticipating! This week, my WoW pick is….. Obviously, you had me at Outlander for teens, although I am a sucker for any type of time travel story. Why does March have to be so […]
Vivian Apple At The End Of The World By Katie Coyle
When I was at the Texas Library Association convention last year, I asked the rep at the HMH booth which book she was most excited about and she handed me Vivian Apple. I thought it was going to be another YA contemporary about a teen questioning her faith, and perhaps there was an […]
Mortal Heart By Robin LaFevers
I remember getting an ARC of book one in this series and thinking that it would be another historical fantasy, but what I got was a book that was well researched with characters that were interesting and told a story with basis in actual history. Now that I am writing the review of […]
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 […]
