This one kicked off with an AWESOME start! Actually, if I had been in a store and picked this book up, I would have bought it immediately just based on the first page. It’s one of the best first paragraphs I’ve read in a very long time! The world building was one of my favorite parts of this novel. Sophie Jordan did a fabulous job of making everything sound legitimate and convincing! And the best part? There was a year […]

I thoroughly enjoyed diving back into this world! It’s a cute fluffy read with the perfect dose of paranormal. It was cool to see things from Laila’s point of view as well as Addie’s. I loved the banter between Laila and Connor! They clearly had chemistry, but fought it tooth and nail, which made it even better when the inevitable finally happened. There were some scenes where I wanted to yell, “JUST KISS, ALREADY!” because the tension between them was […]

Man. I was really looking forward to reading this book, as I’d seen SO many glowing 5 star reviews about how AMAZING it was. Guess what? Black sheep again. It’s not that I didn’t like it, but I didn’t necessarily like it either, if that makes sense. It was one of those books. You know, the books you read that you don’t really care about either way, that don’t give you much inspiration or make a lasting impression on you. My overall […]

“Do you love me?”He spoke without hesitation, without the usual line of thought between his eyes. “Infinitely.” What a fabulous end to a unique trilogy! I must confess that the beginning was a little slow for me. I had a little trouble getting into it…then the dragons made an appearance, and I was hooked! I love the world in the Newsoul series. It’s very original, and Jodi does a great job at bringing it to life! It was even better in […]

This novella was very hard to rate for me. While I still enjoyed it because it’s the Shatter Me world, Adam pissed me off. Really pissed me off. If I hadn’t been Team Warner already after Destroy Me and Unravel Me, this would have firmly secured me there 100%. I can definitely foresee lots of former Team Adam people changing sides, because I don’t know how anyone could stand to be Team Adam after this. Going into this novella, I truly […]

It was nice for the series to come to an  end, but all in all I just felt….disappointed. I was glad to finally see the Still Blue, yet it seemed like all the hype for it built up to that one moment and it…kind of…just…fizzled out. We know that it’s paradise, but I think a little more description could have glorified it a bit more. I think there was too much focus on the fact that skies were free of […]
