WARNING: Possible spoilers! I’d rather be shot dead screaming for justice than die alone in a prison of my own making. Oh goodness, where do I even start? I don’t even know if I can write a review that can do this justice. This book got to me, just like Unravel Me did. So many times I was in danger of drowning in feels!! We found out in Destroy Me that there was a reason for the way Warner is. In […]
See the full list of topics HERE. Last week’s topic: If you could live anywhere? To be honest, I’m not much of a planner. I don’t really think about the future all that much because I tend to live in the moment. I never planned out every detail of my future wedding when I was little, never pored over future baby names. As I talked about in the 3rd Life of a Blogger, I plan to become a web designer! […]
This discussion kind of stems from a discussion I had not too long ago about hype. Has being a book blogger made me a critical reader? Sometimes when I read a book and write down every single complaint I have, I wonder: If I weren’t writing down all these complaints, would I enjoy this book more?

This book was so adorable! I loved The Nightmare Affair, so I was super excited for the sequel. And it didn’t disappoint! I love Dusty. If she were a real person, we’d be good friends! She’s snarky and funny! She’s also strong – she may have had moments of weakness, but she didn’t fall apart when things got tough. She took action. Eli kind of irked me a few times in this one. His mood swings almost gave me mental […]

This book reminded me a lot of a cross between The Hunger Games and The Golden Compass! I don’t particularly like to compare books, because that usually insinuates that one is a cheap ripoff of another, but that was not the case with Fire & Flood. Yes, it was similar; but Victoria Scott made it her own, and it was a unique and intriguing read! The egg is small and ugly, and if I’m not mistaken, it’s got a little stank […]
