(Here's the link) I've spent the last few months in a state of disarray. It's been such an incredible joy to connect to readers across the globe through Goodreads and my blog...but recently, I've felt like something was missing. The spark that I used to feel when I wrote reviews was starting to dwindle. I… Continue reading Booktube – A New Frontier

King’s Cage – Victoria Aveyard
★ A Smarter girl would turn and run To be fair...the author tried to warn me. To keep this review from getting as long (and as bloated) as the book, I will focus on the three worst aspects - the prison, the characters and the sexay scenes.

Sorcerer to the Crown – Zen Cho
★★ It's never a good sign when it takes well over 150 pgs to get the story started....really...truly not. This book dragged. Nothing really worked for me. Nothing.

THE PREMISE - aka not a bad start The British elite conquest consist of magicians (called… Continue reading Sorcerer to the Crown – Zen Cho
Life and Death – Stephenie Meyer
★ I thought about falling to my knees on purpose. This was the kind of beauty you worshiped.

The Plot - aka started from the bottom, now we here...still at the bottom. The premise to this novel was… Continue reading The Darkest Night – Gena Showalter
Glass Sword – Victoria Aveyard
★ Rarely, (and I mean rarely) do I abhor a book to its very core. In an effort to give some structure to my upcoming rant, I will limit myself to the things I disliked the most: The title, the writing and (of course) how our heroine is actually aterrible, horrible person. The Title I literally cannotget over this title. So… Continue reading Glass Sword – Victoria Aveyard
