Review: Serious Moonlight by Jenn Bennett

Review: Serious Moonlight by Jenn Bennett

Posted April 22, 2019 by Wendy in Reviews / 0 Comments

Why Did I Read? I have LOVED Jenn Bennett’s other YA contemporaries (Alex, Approximately and Starry Eyes) like they’re on all time favorite statuses. So this was one of my most anticipated 2019 releases and ever since I first heard it announced I wanted it ASAP because 1) it takes place in MY BELOVED CITY, 2) mysteries, 3) half-asian love interest! I was so fortunate to snag a copy at ALALMW and it was the first one I read from the books […]

Audiobook Mini Reviews: Dear Mrs. Bird, Next Year In Havana

My Thoughts: Dear Mrs. Bird came onto my radar from some friends who read it and loved it. I love historical fiction and so I decided to check it out. Best decision ever! It landed on my list of top books I read in 2018 and I simply adored it. The story takes place in London in WW2 and centers around the people, the women in particular, left behind in war time London. Most historical fiction books taking place in […]

Review: Famous In A Small Town by Emma Mills

Why Did I Read? There are certain YA contemporary authors that are auto-buys for me, which is a little rare because I typically don’t gravitate toward YA contemp nearly as much so when I say one is an auto-buy, it’s serious business! Emma Mills is one of those authors! She writes the best, real, genuine friendships and stories and I love her! This was a must. My Thoughts: Sophie has lived in this small town her whole life and she […]

Review: Nyxia and Nyxia Unleashed by Scott Reintgen

Posted January 14, 2019 by Wendy in Reviews / 0 Comments

Why Did I Read? I’m a big fan of sci-fi and I am loving the influx of YA sci-fi recently! My Thoughts: Nyxia was a fast paced, non-stop action read that I enjoyed immensely! It is set on a space ship taking a group of kids out to Eden — they are competing for a limited number of spots to go there and mine nyxia – a substance only found on this other planet. Their family gets compensated handsomely by this […]

Mini Reviews: A Date With Darcy, This Mortal Coil, Furyborn

My Thoughts: This was pretty much the perfect recipe for a fun, light, contemporary read for me. I loveย Pride and Prejudice and thought this was would be really cute. Unfortunately, this really missed the mark for me. It felt really over the top and it just read much younger than I expected it would be given the actual age of the characters. I am all about boy craziness and book boys – like I talk about swoony book boysย a lot. […]
