Review: Pacifica by Kristen Simmons

Kristen sure has a way with writing characters and building worlds! There wasn’t a huge amount of action in the first half because she spent a lot of time really building up those parts. And it made them feel so vivid and real! The pacing is a bit slow to start, but it gives you time to savor the world and understand it, and also savor the character development. Kristen also has a way of writing an empowering story of […]

I’ve had this book forEVER, and I kept putting it off and putting it off…I don’t even know why! I really enjoyed In the After. I was really looking forward to this one. And I ended up enjoying this one almost just as much! I should have read it much sooner! I enjoyed being back in the world of In the After. I forgot how much of a badass Amy was! She didn’t take crap from anyone, and had no […]

Review: The 100 by Kass Morgan

I’m going to be honest, I was afraid to even pick this book up. The reviews for it are horrific. I don’t think I’d seen one good review out there. But, I saw everyone raving about the TV show, and I couldn’t watch it without at least giving the book a chance first (*coughs* because I would never, ever read the book after watching it). Now, unfortunately, I see why people don’t like it. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t […]

Review: Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on June 29, 2015 | 1 Comment

There was sooo much 80’s pop culture in this book! I did get excited about the music references, but honestly most of it was over my head because it was things I wasn’t interested in (particularly 80’s video games, I never had any gaming consoles growing up sadly). I don’t know much about video games from that era because I was never that big into gaming. So a lot of those references had little to no meaning to me. But […]

Review: The Murder Complex by Lindsay Cummings

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 26, 2015 | 4 Comments

I’m still not quite sure how I feel about this book. I was REALLY enjoying it in the beginning, but somewhere along the line it lost some of that magic. I don’t know what happened! I took a break from reading it about halfway through, and for some reason when I came back it wasn’t the same. Maybe because I had already started to forget some of the details. I wanted to love this book, I really did – I […]
