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 […]

The fact that this novel takes place in space was enough to make me like it. Space stories are so few and far between! There’s a certain magic to the idea of being in space (Treasure Planet!) and this one really captured that magic. The first line was ‘Stealing a spaceship shouldn’t be this easy.’ Talk about getting your attention! It was also very unique. The idea of metatech and metaspace was very intriguing, as were the Pyreans and Empyria! […]

Let me just say this: I love Anita. LOVE. She’s one of the most awesome authors I’ve ever talked to! I enjoyed Splintered, but Unhinged was even better! And no, I’m not biased just because I like the author. The world is a deliciously macabre version of the original, and I was thrilled to dive back in! I love Anita’s writing. She can paint the scenes in my head vividly and beautifully! The world building is one of my favorite […]
