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!)

I had been seeing some meh reviews for this one, so I was a bit leery going in. But I was surprised by how much enjoyed it! The concept is so unique, and while the whole school murder mystery isn’t all that original, the world was. And there was humor! I giggled plenty of times at Dusty’s sarcasm. I do love a book that can make me laugh. The story had a strong start with Dusty’s break-in, and I was […]

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 […]

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 […]

I was sure going into this one that I was going to enjoy it. EVERYONE loved it (seemed like it, anyway). Sadly, I was wrong. Again. *sigh* It seems like I’m always the black sheep when it comes to books with a lot of hype. Don’t get me wrong, this book wasn’t terrible. I gave it 2.5 – which for me is somewhere in between ‘it was ok’ and ‘I liked it.’ Because although I mostly just felt ‘meh’ about […]

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 […]
