Making You Stronger || Be With Me by Jennifer Armentrout

Posted October 15, 2014 by Wendy in Reviews / 2 Comments

Why Did I Read? Wait for You was the first new adult novel I ever read. Perhaps that’s why this series holds such a near and dear place in my heart or it may just be because Jennifer Armentrout is freaking magical and writes the swooniest men in the history of ever. I preordered Be With Me and somehow just hadn’t read it until recently when Stay With Me came out! Clearly that was a mistake because Be With Me was captivating and so good! My […]

Let’s Pretend || The Fine Art of Pretending by Rachel Harris

Why Did I Read? It’s a Rachel Harris book! And the fake relationship is one of my favorite tropes. This was my first BEA read. 🙂 My Thoughts: How does Rachel Harris do it? How?? She captures the teen voice so well! She also has a writing style that just sweeps you up into the story with descriptions that just make you feel like you are in the book and wholly invested in the characters! In The Fine Art of Pretending […]

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

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 […]

Hell Hath No Fury Like A Woman Scorned || Ghost House by Alexandra Adornetto

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. My Thoughts: Oh dear. I really did not enjoy this book at all. So, Chloe, an almost-eighteen-year-old girl loses her mother at the beginning of the book and it appears that it was a sudden death. (It doesn’t really say how […]

Let’s Talk Fashion

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 […]
