★★★★★ A cute new take on a classic! I was not a huge fan of the original tale - I think I was just too old for it when I went for a read. But, I rather enjoyed this version. The pulltabs were really cute and all of the moveable parts look (and feel) really study.… Continue reading Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland – Brooke Jordan

She's written books, edited and re-edited, and pounded the pavement. She had no idea how she would catch someone’s attention if they wouldn’t read… Continue reading Becoming Karen Carter – R.E. Sargent

Dayna never knew her father because of that, the whole town… Continue reading The Devil and Dayna Dalton – Brit Lunden
Abby: Alone – Peter Martuneac
★★★★ That kind of life can't ever get boring, I would think. Before Abby was on the run from zombies, she lived a pretty normal life with her mom. Like I said, she's not a bad mom. Far from it. She works her butt off to provide for me. Dance lessons, forced bonding, and plenty of… Continue reading Abby: Alone – Peter Martuneac

★★★★ ½ "I quit believing." "Well, thank God you've always been able to think for yourself." Wynter Roth (reluctantly) joined the New Earth cult community along with her mother and older sister. There was something truly...wrong...lurking beneath the surface. When Magnus took the pulpit, he stared out at us in silence. "Have I not told you what is… Continue reading The Line Between – Tosca Lee
The Toll – Neal Shusterman
★★★★★ Looks like they are REALLY serious about no spoilers... so I'll just say - this was everything. Literally blown away, socks knocked off. Everything. My Review- now that the book is out ...can’t see why I should concern myself with humankind at all. Rowan and Citra were last seen three years ago, at the… Continue reading The Toll – Neal Shusterman
