I honestly don’t know how I felt about this book. There were times I loved it, times I hated it, and times when it just flat out pissed me off. It was a crazy and aggravating emotional rollercoaster. The title is absolutely perfect for it! The main reason for the times I hated this book was Abby. She was pretty normal in the beginning, but just started to tick me off in the last half. Her ignorance made me want […]

This is the third time I’ve read this book. I read it the first time and loved it, then read it a second time so I could be refreshed before reading Crescendo. It is SO hard to review re-reads because when you already know what happens it’s difficult to be objective. There is no shock or surprise in the twists. I’m not real big on angel books, but this one is an exception for me. I have yet to find […]

Let’s start with a story, shall we? When I was around page 80 or so, I had a desperate urge to play Black Ops II (my current gaming addiction). After a brief argument with myself, I promised myself that if I made it to page 150  (because after all, what is a good relationship without compromise?), I could be rewarded with some beloved Domination and murder. What I didn’t expect was that an hour later I would so engrossed in this book […]

I was a little disappointed in this one. I love the world of Lux, but I can’t quite give it 5 stars like I gave the last two. I felt like there was a little less action in this one, and it was missing something – I just can’t really put my finger on exactly what. Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoyed it, there was just a disconnect for some reason. It makes me sad… I still loved Daemon – […]

Oh lord. Honestly, I’m not sure how I even finished this book. Morbid curiosity? The need to see liars and cheaters have everything blow up in their faces? Who knows. But somehow I managed to stick it through to the end. So, the characters. Good God. I don’t think I’ve ever met so many characters I wanted to flog in one single book. So many vapid, shallow characters! We’ll start with Em. I despised her. With the fire of a […]
