A lot of the time, I stay away from the sad books. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just that when I read, I immerse myself in the book, place myself in the characters’ shoes and as a result, sad books really destroy me. So I really don’t think I would’ve picked this up on my own, but I read it as part of the Gayle Forman read along and I’m SO glad I did. This book was […]
So, I was too busy at the end of last semester to catch up on my reviews and then I was doing so much stuff over break that I was still too busy!

I loved Rose’s attitude and kick ass demeanor in Vampire Academy and we get to see more of that in Frostbite! I like Rose because she has such a fiery and snarky personality. But she doesn’t stay the same, you see her start to mature in this one and I loved that. Speaking of things I love, Dimitri, guardian and duster-clad […]
