You know that feeling after you finish a book when it was so absolutely amazing and awesome but now you’ve reached the end and it’s over? And also when the ending is so “OMG!” that you just feel like you’re in emotional turmoil? That’s me. I’m still sitting here, reeling from… everything. It has been more than a full day and 1) I still haven’t finished writing this review, 2) I haven’t read anything else since then (both from lack […]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK. I find it exceptionally hard to write reviews for books that I completely fall in love with because when I think about what I want to say about it, I’m essentially just going “ahhhh SO GOOD” and “I LOVE MAL” with lots of flailing. And while that’s how I FEEL about it, I’m thinking it’s not so good to have an all caps review. =) So I will try my hardest to put coherent sentences […]

Oh my goodness, wow. This book was simply amazing. How do I even start to put into words how much I loved this? This is a story that takes place during World World II and tells of the incredible friendship between two girls that may not have met if not for the war. I honestly don’t want to say that much more because I don’t want to give anything away. Trust me when I say the story is awesome. Yes, […]

So I had been on kind of a contemporary NA kick and thought I’d switch it up a little with some sci-fi. I received a copy of Fields of Elysium awhile back for a R2R and thought it’d be perfect for some fun sci-fi reading. Wellll, I didn’t enjoy it. At all. The premise is pretty interesting — Molly discovers a secret portal to a new planet Arkana. In Arkana, the technology is way more advanced than on Earth. They […]

After reading the blurb for Click to Subscribe, the debut novel of L.M. Augustine, I knew I had to read it. It is about a 16 year old boy, West Ryder, who pours his thoughts and feelings into video form on his vlog. No one else in real life knows about his vlog and he likes it that way. As a blogger, I can definitely relate to the feeling that I can write into the annals of the Internet and […]
