The lovely Megan came up with the idea for this, so all credit goes to her (well, I made the purty button!). [Megan] There are so many awesome sub-genres of paranormal books, that it’s easy to find one you like and stick with it. So that’s why I decided to make a reading challenge with […]

DNF Review: Zom-B by Darren Shan

**Caution: May contain spoilers** Let me just say: This synopsis is NOT the one I read. If I had read this one, I probably wouldn’t have even bothered with this book. Despite it’s short length, I didn’t actually read all of it. I made a valiant effort. Really, I did. But the lead character, B, was such a douchenozzle that I simply couldn’t go on. I usually don’t rate things I don’t read all of, but I think I read enough […]

Review: Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on November 13, 2012 | 0 Comments

I’ve been dying to get my hands on this book for months, and had to wait patiently (not) for my library to order it. Then I got it, and I was nervous to finally read it, because what if I got my hopes up too high? What if it wasn’t worth the hype? There were VERY mixed reviews on Goodreads, after all. Either love or hate, with almost nothing in between. I am extremely happy to say that I fell […]
