Why Did I Read? This was such a sweet and funny set up and I love those sort of cute romances! My Thoughts: The set up to this romance was the absolute cutest. I adored it! Clementine comes from a rich family and tries to keep it on the down low, especially given an incident she’s experienced before in her past. On a trip, she accidentally switches phones with a stranger and hops on her flight before she notices. For the […]

Audiobook Mini Reviews: Heart of Betrayal, All Fall Down, As You Wish

When I merely liked The Kiss of Deception and was very meh about it, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Heart of Betrayal. I already felt like a black sheep for not falling in LOVE with The Kiss of Deception but everyone assured me that Heart of Betrayal was so epic and amazing. Well. Just shun me now because I disliked Heart of Betrayal more than its predecessor. 🙁 I still feel like this series is so fantasy light. I kept expecting more. This book is […]

The Sound: I really liked this narrator! I thought she did a great job for each POV that we were in. No complaints here! The Story: I really thought I’d like this one more than I actually did.

One is a naive girl named Rio from California, […]

Why Did I Read? I have been so excited for this collection of short stories! Ever since I finished Winter and fell into such a bad book hangover, I have been anticipating Stars Above! My Thoughts: Marissa Meyer is the queen of writing the most magnetic characters and the best friendships and relationships. I have missed these characters so so much and reading the short stories was so much fun! I read them in order and did NOT peek at the epilogue. […]

The Sound: I was not a fan of the narrator. There was this odd lilting tone that made it sound like the MC was super whiny all the time. During the voices for other characters, it was fine but since the book is in first person, all the inner dialogue and well, everything when other people weren’t talking, just GRATED on me. So… maybe I wouldn’t have disliked this book as much if it weren’t for the narrator? Perhaps. But […]
