This is what it sounds like when the world ends. I’m kinda still mulling this one over. My first thought upon finishing this book? Jeesh, I need to go read something about rainbows and unicorns now. This is not a happy book. But that was perfectly fine with me! Every once in a while, it’s nice to read something dark that doesn’t have a HEA, because life doesn’t always have a perfect ending. The beginning grabbed me right away, with […]

I was sure before I even picked this one up that I was going to love it. And in a rare instance, I was right! Many times when I go in with high hopes, I get disappointed. But that was not the case with Defiance. The fact that I could connect enough for it to actually make me cry earned major bonus points for this book. I even knew the bad thing was going to happen, because I saw it coming, […]

DNF review: Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne

I wanted to finish this one. I really did. Because it’s very similar to Stephen King’s The Mist and I loved that movie (didn’t read the book though). But, the prose was such a train wreck that I couldn’t even focus on what was happening anymore. Be warned, this may get ugly. The beginning started out pretty good, with some (fairly) well done 2nd person. The first paragraph (as seen above in the synopsis) was very catching, with the exception of […]

Not gonna lie, I really waffled on writing this review because I wasn’t sure what I was going to say. I liked it but it wasn’t amazing…the end. Ha. I’ve been looking for a good reaper book for a while, because I’ve read a few in the past that I didn’t care for at all. This book didn’t wow me like I had hoped, but it was a light and cute read! I was a little overwhelmed at first, because […]
