See the full list of topics HERE. Last week’s topic: Genres of Music So, I haven’t really traveled all that far. If we’re talking ANYWHERE, maybe I’d pick someplace like Australia or something. But I’ve never been there, so I don’t know! As far as places I have been, I’ve always wanted to live in Florida! I looove the atmosphere down there, and I think the state is absolutely beautiful. Oh, and there’s no winter, which means no snow! I know […]

Novel Thoughts: Romance in YA

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on February 5, 2014 | 25 Comments

Romance in YA If you haven’t already figured out by now, I am not a fan of romance. It is extremely rare for me to be fully invested in one, and 90% of the time, I hate them. Why? Because they are (mostly) all the same to me, and seems like they’re getting bogged down with clichés more and more. *coughs* When a boy character and a girl character are introduced to a story, you automatically know they are going […]

Review: Afterglow by Karsten Knight

I had some trouble connecting to this one. I still really enjoyed it, but for the most part I didn’t love it like I did the first two books. I didn’t feel much throughout the novel except a bit of shock…until the end came. I saw the sacrifice coming, but it still affected me. I was surprised by the sadness I felt! Ash was still the same fierce, fiesty MC that I loved from the previous two books. She stayed strong no […]

Review: Perfect Lies by Kiersten White

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 31, 2014 | 4 Comments

While this may not have left a lasting impression on me, I really enjoyed it while I was reading it. Kiersten White’s books are always a great distraction – I have no problem getting swept up in her storytelling! However, there was one big flaw this book had in my eyes: It was forgettable. We all orbit the brilliant, chaotic burning of [Fia’s] star. I still really liked Fia! She’s more of an antiheroine. Like I said in my review […]
