This was a re-read for me – it’s been a couple years since I last read it, and I had pretty much forgotten everything except for the very end. Looking back, I wondered why I gave it 4 stars, but reading again I realized why. While it’s not exactly memorable, it was enjoyable while I was reading it! First of all, this book is a romance. We all know how Jessi feels about romance. But, it wasn’t bad at all. […]

Life of a Blogger: Skyrim

Life of a Blogger: Skyrim
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 11, 2014 | 6 Comments

Full list of Life of a Blogger topics. Last week’s topic: Where you live This week’s topic is a freebie! I’ve been wanting to talk about Skyrim because I’ve recently become re-obsessed with it! If you’ve never tried this game, you really need to. It’s soooo addicting! There’s so much you can do, and it pretty much never ends. There’s always little side quests to go on. You get to wander around on the map and discover new places and […]

Books I’m DYING to Read but Haven’t Been Able to Get to Yet

          What do all of these books have in common? I HAVE THEM. ALL OF THEM. Some of them I’ve had for months (*coughs*Murder Complex, over a year). Sadly, I’m playing crazy catch up on my Rewind and Fur & Fangs challenges (because I slacked in the beginning), so I don’t have time to get to any of these until January. Unless by some miracle I get ahead of my challenges (not likely). SIGH.

Just like the first book, this one wasn’t very memorable. In fact, it was even less memorable. Practically nothing happens the entire story – it’s just a lot of wandering around, lost, looking for help while running from the bad guys. But somehow, it was still enough to hold my attention. I never got bored, and it was still enjoyable. Much like the first, the details will fade quickly and I probably won’t remember much of it. It was cool to get […]

This book and I had a love/hate relationship. On one hand, I kind of hated it. The writing was HORRIBLY sophomoric, the interactions were juvenile, and the action scenes weren’t really believable. The writing didn’t sell the story. I think this had the potential to be an awesome book if the execution had been better. The beginning was rough for me. I was really struggling for a while. The attempt at humor was so ridiculous it had me rolling my eyes and […]
