I’ve never read a book so pointless in my life. That’s 3 hours of my life I’m never getting back. Even after finishing this book, I couldn’t tell you what it was about. It’s like someone ate a dictionary and vomited all over the pages. I took absolutely no meaning from this story. I didn’t see the point in anything I was reading, I didn’t understand the meaning of any of the made-up words being thrown at me, and I […]

So, I wanted to read this book really bad because the cover was amazing and it sounded cool, then when Inky was like, HEY this book is about a girl who can talk to cats! (because I somehow missed the cat part in the synopsis -JessiFail-) I was pretty sure I would love it. And love it I did!!! (I really don’t think there’s any possible way I could have NOT liked it!)

I had been seeing some meh reviews for this one, so I was a bit leery going in. But I was surprised by how much enjoyed it! The concept is so unique, and while the whole school murder mystery isn’t all that original, the world was. And there was humor! I giggled plenty of times at Dusty’s sarcasm. I do love a book that can make me laugh. The story had a strong start with Dusty’s break-in, and I was […]

Find the answers. Solve the problem. You don’t get a life until you make one worth living. I loved Partials. LOVED it (I gave it 5 starfish). Maybe because of this I set my expectations sky high for Fragments, thinking it would be just as good, probably better. I’ll be honest here, I was kinda disappointed. But as you can see, I still gave it 4 stars. Dan Wells is BRILLIANT when it comes to world building. Seriously. He has […]

As far as reaper books go, this one is on the high end for me. In fact, I don’t usually like them, so I’ve been looking for one that I could enjoy. And I did enjoy this one, even though it was more of a love story than a book about reapers. I really liked Dex. He was what made me enjoy this book! There was clear development in his character (especially in the end) and he was definitely the […]

The idea of alternate realities fascinates me hardcore. And there are not very many stories about it, sadly. In fact, I can’t think of any off the top off my head. But this one was awesome! West did a fabulous job splitting reality in half and making it believable. I loved Addie. She cracked me up! Her witty sarcasm had me giggling out loud frequently, and I wish she were a real person so we could be friends. Plus she […]
