Review: Silence by Becca Fitzpatrick

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 14, 2013 | 0 Comments

While I still enjoyed this one, the series has been going slightly downhill since the first book. I gave Hush, Hush 4.5 starfish, Crescendo 4 starfish, now this one 3.5…. I don’t have a whole lot to say about this book because honestly I feel like there wasn’t much to it. There was hardly anything happening plot-wise. Most of it was Nora trying to get her memories back – which was extremely frustrating for me as a reader, because I already knew everything […]

Audiobook Review: Abandon by Meg Cabot

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 11, 2013 | 3 Comments

First of all, this book is NOT about the Underworld. It’s about a girl who spends 20 minutes in the Underworld then spends the rest of the story adjusting to life after a NDE (near death experience). I cannot express how disappointed I am that the Underworld parts were so tiny. There were far too many things that were either absurd or made absolutely no sense. 1) John’s age didn’t add up. When she was in the cemetery for her […]

Review: Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick

So, this is the second time I’ve read this book….and I remembered absolutely nothing. I mean, I could remember bits and pieces, but all of the important stuff? Gone. So it was kind of like reading this for the first time again. I felt disappointed with this the first time….I don’t know why, because it was really good the second time! Not quite as good as Hush, Hush was, but there were so many twists and surprises that I was […]

I started this feature here at ASR in order to know your fellow bloggers a little better! If you are interested in being featured please fill out the form. Meet Melissa! My name is Melissa and I’m 30 years old. I was actually rather excited to turn 30 this year, and leave my 20s behind. Perhaps with age comes wisdom? I was born and raised in Victoria, on the West Coast of British Columbia (that’s in Canada!) […]

Review: Touch of Death by Kelly Hashway

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 7, 2013 | 0 Comments

I love mythology! That was what drew my interest to this one. I think my expectations were a little too high, though. It was a pleasure to work with Kelly on her blog tour, so it makes me sad to say I was disappointed with Touch of Death. It’s so, so hard to write a not-so-great review for an author you like, and pretty much everyone else loved it…maybe it’s just me :( Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoyed it […]
