Thanks to HarperTeen for providing a copy for review! Honestly, I didn’t even plan on reading this book. Just from the synopsis I wasn’t sure I’d even like it. But I got an ARC in one of my Harper packages, so I figured, why the hell not? Sigh. Now I know why. I would never call anyone’s hard work crap, because I know writing a book is hard and time-consuming and probably devours a little piece of your soul; but […]

While it didn’t impress me much at all, Life After Theft was a cute, fluffy read. I had some major issues in the beginning, but turned out to be an OK read. To be honest, Jeff annoyed the crap out of me in the first half. This book reminded me why I hate reading in male POV. He was the typical guy, checking out every girl he sees, and talking about how ‘hot’ they were. Constantly. Seriously, if the word […]

I had been seeing some meh reviews for this one, so I was a bit leery going in. But I was surprised by how much enjoyed it! The concept is so unique, and while the whole school murder mystery isn’t all that original, the world was. And there was humor! I giggled plenty of times at Dusty’s sarcasm. I do love a book that can make me laugh. The story had a strong start with Dusty’s break-in, and I was […]

*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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
