Audiobook Review: Front Lines by Michael Grant

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. It takes place in an alternate history where women are allowed to fight in WWII. Firstly, I love historical fiction. Secondly, this premise sounds awesome! The story is told in three different POV. One is a naive girl named Rio from California, […]

Review: Stars Above by Marissa Meyer

Review: Stars Above by Marissa Meyer

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. […]

So… maybe I wouldn’t have disliked this book as much if it weren’t for the narrator? Perhaps. But […]

Why Did I Read? It’s the next Off Campus book! I’ve only been looking forward to it since forever! My Thoughts: This series has got to be one of my all time favorite new adult series. They’re funny, sporty, sexy and feature such great main characters! And I had been dying for The Score to come out. Ever since we found out this one would be featuring Dean. Dean Heward Di-Laurentis, the one who completely embraces his player status unabashedly and enjoys it. […]

I have tried and I can’t actually write a proper review for Morning Star. I have TOO MANY FEELINGS. Instead, I’m going to do it in the form of an open letter to Pierce Brown. You will NOT find any spoilers in the following. Dear Pierce Brown, Greetings, my goodman. Upon finishing the epic conclusion to your fantastic series, I am emotionally spent. I am utterly verklempt. You have alternately broken my heart, made me shed tears of joy and sadness, […]
