Valkyrie Rising Blog Tour: Review, Interview, + GIVEAWAY!

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. […]

While I didn’t enjoy this one quite as much as I enjoyed Paranormalcy, it was still a cute and fun read. There wasn’t really much happening plot-wise, but the humor made up for it. There was one span of about 20 pages where I was constantly smiling or giggling (coincidentally, that was when I was reading in public…). I love a book that can make me laugh, and humor earns major brownie points for me. I had a hard time […]

This makes twice that I’ve read this one, and I enjoyed it just as much the second time! I re-read it because I wanted to read Endlessly and it’s been so long since I read the first two that I forgot basically everything. But as I was reading, I found it all coming back to me. It kept me from being surprised in many places, because I knew what was going to happen; but I think as a new reader, […]

This book was totally creepy! It grabbed my attention right from the beginning and refused to let go. Suspenseful and chilling, I was on the edge of my seat, biting my nails, wondering what would happen next. I just want to get something off my mind right now before I go any further: I don’t know what’s up with killing felines in books lately, but it really needs to stop. It doesn’t add anything to the story except outrage (for […]

When you’ve been struck by lightning as many times as I have, you start to expect the worst pretty much all the time.  With an opening line like that one, needless to say I was hooked immediately! The pacing was quite fast, and with all of the events happening I was enthralled and wanted more! I didn’t really know what was happening – who are the Seekers/Followers? What’s the deal with this Prophet guy? What’s really going on here? But I wasn’t confused, […]
