Mini Reviews: Year One, House of the Scorpion, Ninth House

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 16, 2022 | 0 Comments

This book was SO BLAND. There was really nothing special about the writing or the characters. The concept was interesting, and was about the only thing this book really had going for it. But honestly? It just felt like a straight rip off of Darkest Minds. An adult version, and not nearly as good of one. The characters are all flat with no personality to speak of, and I didn’t care about any of them or anything that was happening. Color […]

ARC Review: Unseelie by Ivelisse Housman

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 12, 2022 | 0 Comments

I have never read a book with an autistic MC (that I know of), and now that I have, I wonder if maybe I’m on the spectrum. Because I have never related to a main character as much as I related to Seelie. She’s brash, and stubborn, and reactive, and feels too much…and I honestly saw myself in her. She’s also super socially awkward (like to the point of it being painful, lmao) and shies away from human interaction and […]

Audiobook Reviews: Dead Silence, To Sleep in a Sea of Stars

Are you a fan of space books? Are you also a fan of the movie Ghost Ship? LOOK NO FURTHER! This book is for you! And also, this book was 100% for me. I am a huge space horror fan, and it’s sooo hard to find them. Or good ones, at least. This was one of my most anticipated books of 2022, so I was super jazzed when I got it as an eARC in late 2020 from NetGalley. And […]

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 6, 2022 | 0 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl I am a pro at adding books to my “to-read” shelf and forgetting about them. Even more of a pro of putting off books I’ve wanted to read forever! Here’s my top picks for books I’ve been avoiding in the last 10 years! Game of Thrones (added in October 2011) Demon King (added in November 2011) Hades Daughter (added in November 2011) Touch of Power (added in November 2011) […]

ARC Review: Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 5, 2022 | 0 Comments

I am embarrassed that it took me so long to finally review this book, but here we are. Even though this wasn’t my favorite Rogerson book by far, I still thoroughly enjoyed it! My main complaint with this book was that I found the pacing to be rather slow. Sorcery of Thorns and An Enchantment of Ravens both grabbed me immediately, and I was captivated by both of them from the get-go (especially Sorcery, which is one of my all […]
