Emotional and Heartfelt: Call It What You Want by Brigid Kemmerer

Posted August 26, 2019 by Wendy in Reviews / 0 Comments

Why Did I Read? I really enjoyed Brigid Kemmerer’s Letters to the Lost and was excited to see what her latest contemporary was like! My Thoughts: Well, I know one thing. I can always trust Brigid to really hit me in the feels with her contemporaries. She manages to craft such heartbreaking stories with realistic family relationships. The push and pull of family and societal expectations and what would you do for those that you love? Where is the line […]

Review: Ogre Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine

Why Did I Read? When I was a kid, Ella Enchanted was my absolute favorite. I reread it so many times. I still own the same copy I had when I was young and the pages are yellowed, the cover is creased and it’s very, very well loved. I was downright ecstatic when I found out there was going to be another story in the same world! My Thoughts: Well, I was a little (please forgive my pun) disenchanted with […]

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.

I was so fortunate to snag a copy at ALALMW and it was the first one I read from the books […]

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 […]

My Thoughts: Last year was my first introduction to Laini Taylor. I read Daughter of Smoke and Bone and absolutely FELL IN LOVE with the series and Laini Taylor’s beautiful, gorgeous writing. Strange the Dreamer was no exception and I was once again wrapped up into another beautiful story and wonderful characters. So it is no surprise to anyone that I have been dying for Muse of Nightmares! After that ending?? I was terrified but also just needed this next book! I was so excited […]
