Review: Rebel by Amy Tintera

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on August 22, 2014 | 0 Comments

While I didn’t enjoy it quite as much as I enjoyed Reboot, Rebel was a great conclusion to a very unique duology! There was plenty of action and edge-of-your-seat moments. Callum and Wren’s relationship was beautiful. It wasn’t without conflict, but they stuck together and stayed strong when times get tough. Instead of bickering, or being petty (like you see so often in YA), they supported each other. That’s what I want to see! Once again, I loved Wren. She’s a […]

Review: Deliverance by C. J. Redwine

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on August 18, 2014 | 2 Comments

I’m sorry to say that this book is my least favorite of the series, but I still enjoyed the journey and I like the way everything was wrapped up in the end. And something I liked – this book was really dark. Most of the book is a major struggle for both Logan and Rachel (especially Rachel). There was a lot of gloom and doom, which really drove home the desperation of the characters. Sadly the pacing was horribly slow through […]

Review: The Art of Lainey by Paula Stokes

If it works for armies and athletes, maybe it can work for me. I’m a girl who believes in fighting for what she wants. I wasn’t a huge fan of Venom, but something I mentioned in my review was that I was really impressed with Fiona’s (Paula’s) writing style. This book was no exception! There’s something about the way she puts her words together that makes you want to keep reading. Her prose is interesting and entertaining! As far as […]

Review: Where Silence Gathers by Kelsey Sutton

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on June 30, 2014 | 0 Comments

I totally didn’t realize this going in, but this book is a companion novel to Some Quiet Place, not a sequel. I was disappointed to say the least, and sadly, I feel like maybe that could have affected my overall judgement of this book. My first issue? I wanted Fear. I loved Fear in the first book. Actually, he was what made that book for me! If you didn’t already know, I gave Some Quiet Place 4.5 heartbeats. While he had a few small […]

Review: After the End by Amy Plum

To be honest, I was a little nervous going into this. I wanted to read it really badly because of the amazing cover and interesting synopsis, but at the same time – I hated Die for Me. HATED. But thankfully, this was much different! I feel as if Amy Plum’s writing style has vastly improved since the Revenants series, and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! I’ll admit it was a little overwhelming at first because there […]

The Treatment Blog Tour: Review & Giveaway

While I never posted a review for The Program back when I read it (I lost ALL my notes…fail me), I absolutely loved it. I think I gave it 4.5 out of 5. While I feel like some of that magic was lost somewhere between the first and second book, I still enjoyed the sequel. I do have to say that the pacing dragged a bit in the first half for me. I was actually a little bored with it. […]
