Hosted by I’m Loving Books Alright, so let’s face it: I failed miserably last month with The Body Finder. So time to pick a new one, and hopefully I’ll actually, you know, read it this time.I have a special shelf for 2012 so I will be choosing off of that one instead of my main TBR list. My random.org number: 58 The book for slot #58: Uglies by Scott Westerfield Add to Goodreads Everybody gets […]
Did I mention I love this series? It’s so incredibly addicting and sticks with you long after you’ve read the book. The world of the Mortal Instruments is beautifully and realistically painted, magical and enchanting – even the second time around, I’m engrossed in the series! The stakes are even higher in this one with Valentine and his terrifying and sinister agenda. But is it really a surprise? He does evil so well! He’s so fanatical about his beliefs it’s […]
This is the second time I’ve read this book. I just bought City of Lost Souls, so I’m re-reading the whole MI series before I start on that one. It’s hard for me to write this review because it’s hard to be objective about something you already had an opinion of. I loved the series the first time and I enjoyed this one just as much the second time around. It’s a fast paced and easy read, full of twists […]

I didn’t care about Talon in the last book, so I had no desire to get to know him better. Sunshine was…eccentric. Read: weirdo. I mean, really, who leaves their keys in the fridge by accident? And some of the things she did and said in the beginning were so outlandish that it just […]
The present. Right now. The exact spot where the hourglass filters the sand from the future to the past. That’s where we have to live. Before all the sand runs out, or before somebody shakes it all up again. Whew, man! This book was intense! I totally loved reading in Kaleb’s POV. I liked him from Hourglass, so I was looking forward to getting a more in-depth peek into his head. In the beginning he’s kind of an asshat. He’s […]
What a glorious read! Out of all the paranormals, weres have always been my favorite – and this book didn’t make them look all fluffy and sweet. Lupine Syndrome is an actual disease, and when infected, the person typically turns into a monster and a killer. Hemlock really portrayed the ugly side of humanity. There was a lot of bigotry and racism towards those infected and it was violent at times. The riot at the protest and the way Branson […]
