Why Did I Read? Okay so when I first heard about The Falconer coming out a few years ago, I was so excited and wouldn’t stop talking about it. So much so that Betty was super nice and snagged a copy for me when she was at ALAMW that year (thank you!) And guess what. I JUST now read it. Major fail on my part! My Thoughts: I have finally found a new series to fall in love with! So Aileana Kameron is […]

Why Did I Read? This book is pitched as Friday Night Lights meets Pride and Prejudice. Why, hello, two things I love! If you didn’t know, I have a Football Friday feature and also have an undying love of football as well as of Mr. Darcy. It’s a wonder I even waited this long to read this book! My Thoughts: I really, really loved this one, you guys! So Devon is your average high school senior — she’s trying to […]

I felt like this one had a lot of potential. It’s an […]

Why Did I Read? I’m a big fan of time travel books and so of course, the sound of this one hooked me in! My Thoughts: I am all about time travel and historical fiction so Passenger seemed to be the perfect fit for me! For the most part, I really enjoyed this one! It started off really slowly for me though. There’s a large segment in the beginning where our main character Etta goes back in time and she really […]

The Sound: It’s Fiona Hardingham and Steve West. Apparently I listened to three audiobooks in a row narrated by Fiona and two of them also had Steve West. THEY ARE AMAZING. Seriously. Love them. The Story: This is my first Maggie Stiefvater book! And now I know I need to read all her books! I thought the writing in The Scorpio Races was beautiful and I adored the story! I’m a big horse person. I loved horses as a kid and […]
