Caution: Review contains spoilers for Strange the Dreamer! “Wishes don’t just come true. They’re only the target you paint around what you want. You still have to hit the bullseye yourself.” Holy CRAP this book was SO. BEAUTIFUL!!! I loved it just as much as the first one! And, of course, just like the first one this one is tragic and heartbreaking. But GLORIOUS. I loved every second! Laini’s writing is gorgeous and just draws you in. Even when nothing […]

Review: Heretics Anonymous by Katie Henry

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on September 21, 2018 | 0 Comments

“A heretic is someone who has belief, but not the right kind. At least according to the Catholic Church.” Full disclosure: I would NEVER have picked this book up on my own, ever in a million years. I don’t read contemporary much to begin with, and even though the cover is interesting for a contemp, the fact that it sounds religious would probably have deterred me. But, Harper sent the book to me, and I was in the mood for […]

The dragon is rising.

There are not enough Japanese books in YA! In fact, the only other one I know of off the top of my head is my fave series, The Lotus Wars (by Jay Kristoff who happens to be […]

Review: Even the Darkest Stars by Heather Fawcett

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on September 14, 2018 | 0 Comments

Even the darkest stars shone here, so far from the earth. I don’t really know what I was expecting going into this one. I hadn’t heard much about it, but a lot of my bookish friends loved it. I think going in with little expectations and little knowledge of what the book was about worked in my favor, because I really enjoyed it!! The main complaint I have about this book is that it is really slow. Not much happens other […]

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl The Lotus War – With the popularity that all of Jay’s other books have garnered, it absolutely BLOWS MY MIND that basically no one knows about this series. And breaks my heart, because it’s my all time fave!! I bookpush the shit out of this series on Instagram because it doesn’t get enough love! (Also it doesn’t help that Jay NEVER TALKS ABOUT IT) Zero Repeat Forever – […]
