Come With Me If You Want To Live || The Beautiful Ashes by Jeaniene Frost

Posted September 25, 2014 by Wendy in Reviews / 4 Comments

Why Did I Read? I haven’t read Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress series yet but have heard great things and then this one sounded great! Parallel realms? Paranormal? Romance? Count me in!! My Thoughts: So this book started off really jarring for me. It opens and immediately drops you into the action which I like sometimes but here, it left me kind of just trying to get my bearings. And then, Adrian basically drags Ivy with him — to save her, but […]

Why Did I Read? Well, I got a copy of this from BEA and I was thinking I’d try and make a dent in my big pile of BEA review books. Also – the premise sounded kind of interesting.

Why Did I Read? I pretty much will read anything and everything by Aven! I was also in the mood for a good, fun romance and I know that I can depend on Aven for that! My Thoughts: Chronicles of a Lincoln Park Fashionista is SUCH an amazing, fun, heartfelt romance! It read like a romantic comedy movie, like I could just visualize everything playing out in my head. It’s the type of book you want to pick up for […]

Sort of like brownie bites, review bites are a bite sized review! This time I’ll be talking about two of Rainbow Rowell’s adult books: Landline and Attachments! In Landline, MC Georgie McCool needs to make a decision. Go with her husband Neal and kids to visit his family for Christmas? Or stay because she could have a huge opportunity as a writer for her TV show. She decides she needs to stay for work and Neal takes the kids and goes anyway. […]

Burning it Down

Why Did I Read? It’s the long awaited third book in one of my all time FAVORITE fantasy series!! I waited for 2.5 hours in line for this ARC at BEA and I didn’t even mind the wait. My Thoughts (There will be no spoilers for Heir of Fire but there will be spoilers from the first two books!) Heir of Fire is very different from the first two books in the series. It’s quieter and focuses a lot on characterization […]
