I’ve had this book forEVER, and I kept putting it off and putting it off…I don’t even know why! I really enjoyed In the After. I was really looking forward to this one. And I ended up enjoying this one almost just as much! I should have read it much sooner! I enjoyed being back in the world of In the After. I forgot how much of a badass Amy was! She didn’t take crap from anyone, and had no […]
I love this world because it’s so unique. Megan Shepherd has created a story unlike any I’ve ever read before! Cora and her friends might have escaped the Cage, but all they did was trade it for another cage. This one was just as creepy as the last! Despite the fact that the Kindred claimed to not kill humans, they were still terrifying. They’re still captors! They controlled everything the humans did. The humans were no better than slaves to […]
She was iron and fire, a warrior’s spirit with a lion’s heart. While I didn’t enjoy this one quite as much as I’d hoped (I loved the Defiance trilogy), it was still an enjoyable read! I love retellings, and even though I never really got super into the Snow White fairy tale, I thought this was a great retelling of it. Wicked stepmother and all. (Except, where are the dwarves?!) The thing I loved the most about this book? DRAGONS. […]
The darkness cannot last. Light will come again. Wow. This book was amazing! I absolutely loved the world. It was brilliant and creepy! And INTENSE. I was hooked right from the start. The premise is so awesome – the world is in perpetual dark because of a never-ending eclipse, and it’s not safe to be Outside anymore because these creepy things called Dwellers roam the land and attack people. Also, bats are like 4 feet tall. It was SO awesome! I’ve […]
“They work their discreet types of madness on us, power and pain, and we hold to our truths in the darkness.” I had major problems connecting with this book. Mainly to our lead, Grace. I got no feeling whatsoever from her. In fact, it seemed as if she didn’t have feelings. She was telling the story, but she never had any emotion. Therefore, I felt nothing. I was an onlooker to this story, not part of it. I like to experience […]
I had been wanting to read this for a while, yet at the same time dreading it because while I was intrigued, I was pretty sure it wouldn’t be a me book. Actually, I was quite sure I was going to hate it, but curiosity about the hype eventually won out. Surprisingly, I didn’t hate it like I thought I would, but I wasn’t all that impressed, either. I felt very ‘meh’ about everything. I didn’t care about the characters or the […]
