Review: Afterlight by Elle Jasper

I had trouble getting through this one. Why? Because it was a cookie-cutter of Twilight. (Am I the only one who noticed this?!) Sure, there were some differences…it had some colorful icing and fancy sprinkles added for camouflage. But the basics were disturbingly similar. I should have known in the prologue when Riley said she was ‘utterly, irrevocably in love’ with a vampire, and my first thought was easy, Twilight. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN. *shakes fist* The book was fairly […]

I’ve only seen the first Alice movie once, forever ago, and I’ve never read the book. But I loooove retellings! Howard did a fantastic job at making Carroll’s twisted world even more twisted. I think the world-building was one of my favorite parts of this story, because as I was reading I was able to picture everything vividly in my mind. The imagery was beautiful! Let me just say one thing first….I. LOVE. MORPHEUS. Seriously. I am so Team Morpheus all […]

Welcome to the 2013 Sequel Challenge, hosted by me! I personally am TERRIBLE about reading the first book in a series and never going any farther. I don’t know why, but for some reason series intimidate me (especially if it’s longer than a trilogy). I searched and searched for a challenge like this and couldn’t find one, so I decided to make my own! The goal: To read as many sequels as you can. You set your goal at whatever […]

November 2012 Monthly Recap

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 2, 2012 | 0 Comments

This has so not been a good reading month for me. You’ll see under my book reviews that I’ve only finished four – FOUR! – books this whole freaking month (My average is 11-12). I discussed this in my Books I Didn’t Finish post, in which I blame Days of Blood and Starlight (amazing), Stormdancer (epic), and ICED (awesomely epic) for leaving me with a triple book hangover the size of Africa. In other news, I’m now co-hosting my […]
