*HUGE thanks to the lovely Inky for sending me a copy!! <3 I don’t know why it took me so long to finally read this. A few of my bloggy friends (you know who you are!) have been nagging me to read it and I’ve actually been dying to start the series. I wanted to love it as much as they did, but I’m afraid it didn’t live up to the hype for me. I seriously think I have a problem with […]

If you didn’t already know, I looove high fantasy. There’s just something about it that pulls me in! So I was pretty sure going in that I was going to enjoy this one. And enjoy it, I did! The world building was what sold me on this one. I want to burrow into Devri’s imagination and live there! (you know, in a totally non-creepy way….) She is fabulous at drawing you in, and it was easy for me to picture […]

I was sure going into this one that I was going to enjoy it. EVERYONE loved it (seemed like it, anyway). Sadly, I was wrong. Again. *sigh* It seems like I’m always the black sheep when it comes to books with a lot of hype. Don’t get me wrong, this book wasn’t terrible. I gave it 2.5 – which for me is somewhere in between ‘it was ok’ and ‘I liked it.’ Because although I mostly just felt ‘meh’ about […]

One of the things I love most about Jodi Meadows’ writing is the world building. I want to crawl right into the pages and live in there! The world she creates is incredible and magical. And it’s so unique, unlike anything I’ve ever read before. I think my favorite part of this book was the sylph. I loved them! I kinda want one to keep. In the beginning I didn’t know what the heck was going on, because they were […]

While I still enjoyed this one, the series has been going slightly downhill since the first book. I gave Hush, Hush 4.5 starfish, Crescendo 4 starfish, now this one 3.5…. I don’t have a whole lot to say about this book because honestly I feel like there wasn’t much to it. There was hardly anything happening plot-wise. Most of it was Nora trying to get her memories back – which was extremely frustrating for me as a reader, because I already knew everything […]

First of all, this book is NOT about the Underworld. It’s about a girl who spends 20 minutes in the Underworld then spends the rest of the story adjusting to life after a NDE (near death experience). I cannot express how disappointed I am that the Underworld parts were so tiny. There were far too many things that were either absurd or made absolutely no sense. 1) John’s age didn’t add up. When she was in the cemetery for her […]
