Why Did I Read? I got an ARC of this from BEA and the cover is gorgeous! The premise also sounded so interesting – sci fi with zodiac houses? Cool, right? My Thoughts: Unfortunately, I really didn’t like this book. I almost DNFed it but for some reason I kept thinking it was going to pick up. But it didn’t. Basically the main character, Rho, is thrust into a leadership position after a huge tragedy strikes, leaving thousands dead. She’s […]

Why Did I Read? I LOVED Scoring Wilder by R.S. Grey and was very excited when her new book came out! Made plans to buddy read with Betty and couldn’t wait to start. My Thoughts: You guys, I’m so sad and disappointed. I was looking forward to this so much and I unfortunately didn’t like it and it breaks my heart ot give it a low rating. 🙁 Anyway, so Brooklyn Heart and Jason Monroe have to collaborate on this duet for the Grammy’s.

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 […]

So, I was really excited to read this one. I mean, it’s a fantasy, with a girl who’s been pretending to be a boy this whole time. Not to mention, she’s supposedly an awesome fighter, on the prince’s guard and basically sounds all sorts of awesome. It definitely made me think of Mulan – pretending to be a boy, in the army, you can see where I get that – and it really had all the markings of something amazing! […]

Okay, what do I say about this book. We read this for our Girls with Books weekend read along last weekend. Our responses were pretty similar. This book didn’t start off well for me. There are new adult books that are riveting and grab me and I love them so and then there are new adult books that just feel like a mish mash of new adult themes. It didn’t help that not very far into it, I was struck […]
