Review: These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 2, 2013 | 2 Comments

These Broken Stars is kinda like Shades of Earth meets Titanic, and it’s unlike anything else I’ve read. The world building was by far my favorite part of this book! I loved the feel of the story, and the planet’s energy-based life forms. Their abilities were fascinating! This is a hell I’ve never imagined. And I think I’m going to die here. I didn’t care much for Lilac in the beginning. She’s a spoiled rich brat who’s lived a frilly life without […]

Review: The Moth in the Mirror by A.G. Howard

Each time he saw his reflection as of late, he no longer recognized the moth in the mirror. He was incomplete, broken; and he despised it. First of all, I love Morpheus. It’s no secret that he’s one of my favorite book boyfriends (only second to Warner of course). So of course I was going to love this one. I’m surprised by how much I did love it, though, because I’m not usually a fan of novellas. I loved being […]

Audiobook Review: The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

So, I finally read this book. Took me long enough, eh? It didn’t really blow me away, but I did really enjoy it. I must admit that this book is very difficult to review as I don’t have much to say other than it was beautiful and heartbreaking! John Green’s writing style is epic. He makes even the most mundane things seem interesting, and that was what made me enjoy this so much. There was hardly anything going on for […]

Review: Divergent by Veronica Roth

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on November 22, 2013 | 11 Comments

This is not the first time I’ve read this book; I read it back in 2011 when it first came out. I liked it the first time, but it didn’t wow me. I probably would have given it 3-3.5 stars. That was before I started blogging, and I remembered next to nothing, so it was almost like reading it for the first time again. I was never really on the Divergent bandwagon with all of the crazed fans, but with […]

Review: Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on November 20, 2013 | 10 Comments

I wasn’t a big fan of Shadow and Bone. I was the black sheep on that one. I was hoping that Siege and Storm would blow the first book out of the water and I would love it, like everyone else did. Sadly, I was wrong. It was exactly the same for me as Shadow and Bone was: Meh. I did fare a bit better with all of the foreign/made up terms in this one, because there was a map and […]

Review: Infinityglass by Myra McEntire

Infinityglass was a cute conclusion to the Hourlass series! While I feel like the magic of the series fizzled out somewhat as it progressed (it’s just not the same without Emerson and Michael!), I’m happy with the way it ended and would still recommend this series to any fan of sci-fi or time travel. I must confess I didn’t like Hallie much at all in the beginning. She was one of those girls. You know, the kind that wear skanky things […]
