The reason why I first got this was because the old cover had a pretty coffee cup on the cover (much like the one in my header). I am very much a coffee shop girl — yeah, I fit into that Seattle-ite stereotype and 3 years living in Vegas isn’t gonna change that. =) I love coffee shops. I like the smell of espresso, drinking from an actual mug, and sitting among other people reading, working, chatting, etc. It’s comforting […]

It didn’t help that not very far into it, I was struck […]

Unbreakable was like… a season of 24. Fast paced, action packed, crazy twists, lots of wtf moments and SO addicting. Once again, as in Unraveling, there is a countdown and that was also a bit reminiscent of 24 to me. That’s one of my favorite shows so it’s no wonder I loved this book too. Unbreakable is the sequel to Unraveling, so if you have not read Unraveling, do not read this because there will be spoilers to Unraveling!! Unbreakable picks up […]
