Taken is a fantastic dystopian that is great for fans of Legend by Marie Lu. If you didn’t already know, this was my #1 most anticipated 2013 release. Did it live up to the hype? Mostly. I did really enjoy it, but it wasn’t as spectacularly epic as I thought it would be. Gray was a good lead. He was almost completely ruled by his emotions, which was probably why I liked him. It made him seem more realistic. The romance…sigh. This […]
I am in a world of winter being burned beneath a summer sun. Stung was fabulous! This was a great example of humans playing God and getting burned for it. And, if you didn’t know by now, I loooove those kind of stories! Stung was a high action, high stakes, fast paced edge-of-your-seat read. Once you step into the pages, you’ll lose yourself in the world that Wiggins has created! This book was so original I couldn’t help but love it! […]
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 […]
First of all, I waited WAY too long to write this review. I already forgot most of the book and had to skim through it to remember! Sad, I know. I enjoyed it while I was reading it, but it didn’t make much of a lasting impression on me. The world building was really cool, and I found the idea of Mystics fascinating. Kind of like X-Men, each Mystic has their own individual special power they can use through the […]
h e l l i s e m p t y. a n d a l l t h e d e v i l s a r e h e r e. HOLY. CRAP. SO MANY FEELS. I’m not sure anything I say could really do this book justice. But here goes… I liked Shatter Me. Liked, not loved. But I still wanted to read Unravel Me, although I wasn’t sure I was going to love it as much as […]
First of all, in Shatter Me I didn’t really care about Warner one way or the other. I didn’t dislike him necessarily, but I thought he was a bit creepy. Mainly that his obsession for Juliette was creepy. And in my review of Shatter Me I even said “So strong was his obsession that he deluded himself into believing he loved her. I almost felt sorry for him.” Because I didn’t believe that he truly loved her. So, when I […]
