Review: Rebel by Amy Tintera

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on August 22, 2014 | 0 Comments

While I didn’t enjoy it quite as much as I enjoyed Reboot, Rebel was a great conclusion to a very unique duology! There was plenty of action and edge-of-your-seat moments. Callum and Wren’s relationship was beautiful. It wasn’t without conflict, but they stuck together and stayed strong when times get tough. Instead of bickering, or being petty (like you see so often in YA), they supported each other. That’s what I want to see! Once again, I loved Wren. She’s a […]

I’ve tried posting on the old page, tweeting, and posting on here. Nothing seems to help. My question is: Is there even any point? I’m honestly thinking of deleting my Facebook page altogether. It posts for me automatically when I publish a […]

Review: Deliverance by C. J. Redwine

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on August 18, 2014 | 2 Comments

I’m sorry to say that this book is my least favorite of the series, but I still enjoyed the journey and I like the way everything was wrapped up in the end. And something I liked – this book was really dark. Most of the book is a major struggle for both Logan and Rachel (especially Rachel). There was a lot of gloom and doom, which really drove home the desperation of the characters. Sadly the pacing was horribly slow through […]
