Taken is a fantastic dystopian that is great for fans of Legend by Marie Lu. If you didn’t already know, this was my #1 most anticipated 2013 release. Did it live up to the hype? Mostly. I did really enjoy it, but it wasn’t as spectacularly epic as I thought it would be. Gray was a good lead. He was almost completely ruled by his emotions, which was probably why I liked him. It made him seem more realistic. The romance…sigh. This […]
So, I wanted to read this book really bad because the cover was amazing and it sounded cool, then when Inky was like, HEY this book is about a girl who can talk to cats! (because I somehow missed the cat part in the synopsis -JessiFail-) I was pretty sure I would love it. And love it I did!!! (I really don’t think there’s any possible way I could have NOT liked it!)
The idea of alternate realities fascinates me hardcore. And there are not very many stories about it, sadly. In fact, I can’t think of any off the top off my head. But this one was awesome! West did a fabulous job splitting reality in half and making it believable. I loved Addie. She cracked me up! Her witty sarcasm had me giggling out loud frequently, and I wish she were a real person so we could be friends. Plus she […]
*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 love mythology! To be honest though, I didn’t really know anything about Norse mythology except what I saw in the movie Thor. Sad, I know. But I think that increased my enjoyment of Valkyrie Rising in the long run, because I got to learn a few things about Valkyries! It started off a bit slow, but I didn’t get bored because the mythology was enough to keep me interested. I had a bit of trouble connecting with the story at […]
I still didn’t quite feel the magic that Paranormalcy had, but Endlessly was nonetheless a good ending to a cute and fun trilogy! I didn’t love Evie as much as I did in Paranormalcy, but she didn’t get under my skin like she did in Supernaturally. Even so, I found her rather selfish. Don’t get me wrong, I can understand why she didn’t want to help the paranormals, and I’m sure it would be frustrating to have your decisions made for you. […]
