At first, I didn’t really care about the story. I tend to see novellas as a waste of time, nothing but filler. But as soon as Zu made an appearance, I was interested. And I found myself becoming more and more invested in the story. And to tell you the truth, this story actually isn’t just filler like most novellas! I didn’t care for Gabe at first, but I think that’s kind of the point. He’s kind of a jerk […]

This book was one of my most anticipated 2015 releases. After seeing review after review, proclaiming how EPIC and AMAZING and MIND BLOWING this book was, I wanted it desperately! I originally missed it on Edelweiss somehow, until someone told me it was on there. I immediately went and downloaded it. I was sure I was going to love this one. Alas, I did not. I am the black sheep. (Again.) Maybe the problem is that the Hype Monster set my expectations sky […]

Full list of Life of a Blogger topics. Last week’s topic: Goals & Dreams This week’s topic: What superpower would you choose? Topic suggested by Mel @ The Daily Prophecy This is no contest for me. If I could choose any superpower, I would – hands down – choose the ability to fly! I’ve always dreamed of what it would be like to fly. When I turned 21, I went skydiving. It is by far the most incredible thing I’ve ever experienced, […]

Okay, so remember last week when I did the Taylor Swift book tag (cringes), and joked that the concept was cool, but it’d be better if it was Avenged? Well, I started pondering their song names and realized it wouldn’t be all that hard to come up with. So, here it is…a book tag for people like me, who like their music a little stronger! Inspired by the Taylor Swift book tag, originally posted by The Book Life The songs: […]

I’ve been wanting a readathon for a while now, so I figured I’d revive the Love for Books Readathon!
