Find the answers. Solve the problem. You don’t get a life until you make one worth living. I loved Partials. LOVED it (I gave it 5 starfish). Maybe because of this I set my expectations sky high for Fragments, thinking it would be just as good, probably better. I’ll be honest here, I was kinda disappointed. But as you can see, I still gave it 4 stars. Dan Wells is BRILLIANT when it comes to world building. Seriously. He has […]

First of all, I waited WAY too long to write this review. I already forgot most of the book and had to skim through it to remember! Sad, I know. I enjoyed it while I was reading it, but it didn’t make much of a lasting impression on me. The world building was really cool, and I found the idea of Mystics fascinating. Kind of like X-Men, each Mystic has their own individual special power they can use through the […]

Not gonna lie, in the beginning I didn’t like this book much at all. The first 100 pages or so would probably only have scored a 2 or 2.5 rating for me. I was unimpressed with the characters, and it was a bit too cliche for me. Girl meets sexy bad boy who acts like a jerk to keep people at a distance, and they conveniently get stuck as school partners? Ugh. And even though the visions were weird and slightly […]

h e l l  i s  e m p t y. a n d  a l l  t h e  d e v i l s  a r e  h e r e. HOLY. CRAP. SO MANY FEELS. I’m not sure anything I say could really do this book justice. But here goes… I liked Shatter Me. Liked, not loved. But I still wanted to read Unravel Me, although I wasn’t sure I was going to love it as much as […]

First of all, in Shatter Me I didn’t really care about Warner one way or the other. I didn’t dislike him necessarily, but I thought he was a bit creepy. Mainly that his obsession for Juliette was creepy. And in my review of Shatter Me I even said “So strong was his obsession that he deluded himself into believing he loved her. I almost felt sorry for him.” Because I didn’t believe that he truly loved her. So, when I […]

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 […]
