I absolutely LOVED Hemlock (I gave it 5 stars!), and have been jonesing for the sequel for months and months. But for some reason, it just didn’t have the magic that the first book had for me. It was still good, but I was disappointed in some small way with it. My main problem was that I couldn’t connect (seems to be the theme these days, doesn’t it?) as well as I did with Hemlock. I enjoyed the story, but I wasn’t invested […]
Not a Drop to Drink was a very character driven novel. The characters were thoroughly fleshed out and so realistic that I connected to each and every one of them. At some point I realized with a shock just how invested in them I actually was! Then I had to steel myself for the unavoidable heartbreak that I was probably in for… This book is not fluffy unicorns and happy rainbows. It’s dark, and desperate, even depressing at times. That’s […]
I was seriously looking forward to this book! It was one of my most anticipated summer releases. I was seriously disappointed. It’s not that I didn’t like it. It was just meh. And for some reason it really reminded me of Doomed by Tracy Deebs, so it kinda felt like I had read it already. My main problem was that I didn’t give a crap about any of the characters. They were all cardboard cutouts with little to no personality […]
Besides Taken, this was my most anticipated debut of 2013. Did it disappoint? It surely did not! There was plenty of action, and once this book grabs you it doesn’t let go. I positively LOVED the setting! There are not nearly enough futuristic stories that take place over the water. The idea of a future where Manhattan is almost entirely underwater is fascinating to me. And something cool came from all that water: Roofracing. Now, I tried not to think […]
One of the things I love most about Jodi Meadows’ writing is the world building. I want to crawl right into the pages and live in there! The world she creates is incredible and magical. And it’s so unique, unlike anything I’ve ever read before. I think my favorite part of this book was the sylph. I loved them! I kinda want one to keep. In the beginning I didn’t know what the heck was going on, because they were […]
While the first book was good, I believe I enjoyed this one much more! It didn’t have a real lot of depth, but it was a cute and fun read. The fact that there are THREE changing points of view in this one really makes me appreciate Tera’s writing style. A few times I forgot momentarily who I was reading, but for the most part it was very well done. The voices were quite similar, but each of the girls […]
