With all of the GLOWING reviews of this book, everyone raving about how amazing it was, how amazing Tamlin was, I was DYING to get my hands on a copy. I would have almost bargained my first born to get my hands on it. I begged Twitter if anyone would let me borrow it. (Thank you Kelly for letting me borrow yours!) And the fact that I didn’t love it like everyone else is kind of soul-crushing. (It has a […]
With all the hype surrounding this one, I was honestly afraid that I would end up being disappointed. But guys, the hype is definitely not exaggerated because this book was gorgeous! I am so in love with Sabaa Tahir’s writing, her prose is freaking beautiful! There were so many quotable lines! (The pages were filled with my little neon book flags!) Not to mention that the idea is original, and the world is unlike anything I’ve ever read before. The Augurs […]
Sadly I didn’t quite love this one like everyone else did. I do see the appeal, but the lack of connection to the story killed it for me. *sobs* I wanted so badly to love it, but I just didn’t. It was still a beautiful story, though – Jodi Meadows rocks at creating unique and intriguing worlds! I loved the magical aspect of the story, and the concept of the Wraith was pretty cool. That was definitely the selling part […]
Gosh, what can I say about this series that I haven’t already said?! It’s unlike anything I’ve ever read before! My favorite part of this series by far is the characters. I love them so much! Tess, Simon, Meg, Sam, Grandfather Erebus, Jenni, Vlad, Nathan…I love them all! Anne Bishop’s characterization is awesome! Tess is definitely my favorite. She’s so badass! And you know when her hair starts turning green, then red, then streaking with black…she means business. I love it! […]
This book was one of my most anticipated 2015 releases. After seeing review after review, proclaiming how EPIC and AMAZING and MIND BLOWING this book was, I wanted it desperately! I originally missed it on Edelweiss somehow, until someone told me it was on there. I immediately went and downloaded it. I was sure I was going to love this one. Alas, I did not. I am the black sheep. (Again.) Maybe the problem is that the Hype Monster set my expectations sky […]
It was so much fun to read this series again! I’m still surprised by how much I had forgotten about this series. It never really stuck with me the way The Wayfarer Redemption did, but it was amazing nonetheless! I loved the part with the Axis and Inardle in the ice hex, and the story behind the River Angels was riveting! I had completely forgotten that. The One was as creepy as I remembered, and it was satisfying to see […]
