Audiobook Review: Winter by Marissa Meyer

Posted December 16, 2015 by Wendy in Reviews / 5 Comments

The Sound: I’ve mentioned last week in my series review of Cinder, Scarlet, and Cress how much I LOVE the narrator and that obviously has not changed. This audio book is the longest I’ve listened to. TWENTY-THREE AND A HALF HOURS. I loved every second of it and fell into such a book slump after this book because I not only missed the world and the characters but I missed their voices. Rebecca Soler is amazing. She captured each character perfectly and it definitely enhanced […]

Why Did I Read? There is a ton of hype surrounding this book but of course, I was intrigued and plus, I am a huge sci-fi fan! My Thoughts: It’s going to be really tough for me to review this book.

I honestly didn’t know […]

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? It is the series ender of one of my favorite series! I’ve only been waiting forever for this final book! My Thoughts (No spoilers for this book but may have spoilers for the previous books in the series) I wouldn’t say that Origin ended in a cliff hanger exactly, but it definitely left me with many many questions and desperate for the next book! I was beyond thrilled when I found it out early at Barnes & […]

Review: Origin by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Posted September 6, 2013 by Wendy in Reviews / 4 Comments

Jennifer Armentrout. That woman. She does it again! She completely wrapped me up in the story, had my heart breaking one minute and then smirking at the snark the next. I love that! I love being so immersed in the story and having the characters feel so real that I feel like I can reach into the book and touch them. And who wouldn’t want to touch Daemon?? Oh, you hear that? Yep, that’s the sound of Daemon’s ego growing. […]
