With all the hype surrounding this one, I was honestly afraid that I would end up being disappointed. But guys, the hype is definitely not exaggerated because this book was gorgeous! I am so in love with Sabaa Tahir’s writing, her prose is freaking beautiful! There were so many quotable lines! (The pages were filled with my little neon book flags!) Not to mention that the idea is original, and the world is unlike anything I’ve ever read before. The Augurs […]

Holy wow, this book was amazing! It’s been a very long time since I’ve read something that I got so much sheer enjoyment from! There were so many times where the WWE chant “this is awesome” was running through my head. (And probably no one is going to know what I’m talking about.) Because it was – freaking awesome, that is! I was grinning like an idiot and laughing out loud throughout the whole book. That high of an enjoyment level […]

This was just as amazing as I knew it was going to be! I mean, it’s Julie. Obviously I’m going to love it. (Also I was totally geeking out because I got the eARC before anyone else…before Julie even got her author copies. Like, what?! I FEEL SO SPESHUL, GUYS.) What blows me away each and every time about Julie’s storytelling is that it feels so real. Her imagery is very vivid and it’s so easy to picture everything like I […]

I’ve had this book on my list forever, and last year I was able to meet Melissa and get a copy signed. It’s been sitting on my shelf for months, and I’ve been eyeballing it – because that cover! – but honestly I’ve been putting it off. I wasn’t sure it would be a “me” book, so I was hesitant. Turns out I had nothing to worry about! I can’t believe I waited so long to read this! I was […]

Sadly I didn’t quite love this one like everyone else did. I do see the appeal, but the lack of connection to the story killed it for me. *sobs* I wanted so badly to love it, but I just didn’t. It was still a beautiful story, though – Jodi Meadows rocks at creating unique and intriguing worlds! I loved the magical aspect of the story, and the concept of the Wraith was pretty cool. That was definitely the selling part […]

Wow you guys, Victoria Schwab has such a wonderful talent for creating worlds like no other world written. Just like her other books, I’ve never read anything like it! What really made this book amazing was how unique the story was, that was definitely the selling point for me. It was deliciously dark and magical! I must confess that I was a little bit bored in the beginning – it had a very historical feel to it, and anything remotely close […]
