4 stars — Harry and Pippa were both very likeable characters, but I think I’m still not quite in reading mode and so I got a bit frustrated with them (mostly Pippa) at times…I also might have had a hard time suspending my disbelief on how often Alice conveniently napped. *snort* For all that Harry […]
4.5 stars — I don’t even know where to start. I’m not really a fantasy reader, but there is something about the way Amy Harmon writes her stories that has me immediately grabbing for any fantasy novel she writes. Her worlds are so vivid and unique. And the emotions! OMG the emotions. I just finished […]
4 stars — OK, this book surprised me in a lot of ways!! And mostly good, so woop woop! I wondered if perhaps it was because I hadn’t reread the blurb before diving in, but nope — there was a lot that wasn’t hinted at! Ash was so unexpected. First of all, I wasn’t expecting […]
2.5 stars — This rating does not reflect the writing whatsoever…I actually highlighted a lot of this book, b/c I think Ms. Ryan writes beautifully and presents things in an interesting manner. Unfortunately, while I’ve enjoyed the one other book I’ve read by her, I don’t think I have the patience for the types of […]
4.5 stars — OMG, I think this author is a match for me!! I love her sense of humour, her characters are just sassy and fun and remind me of people I love! I also couldn’t help but think of the one chick from the Traveling Pants movie…not sure if that was inspiration, or just […]
4.5 stars — Every time I read a book by Ms. Chase, I’m reminded why I love her. There’s just something about each and every one of her characters that draws me in, makes me laugh, makes me feel for them, even when they’re all entirely different. And their interactions are beyond amazing! Always witty […]
4 stars — Wow. Again, why don’t I read more science fiction?? I would have missed out on this gem if I wasn’t determined to stretch myself this year! OK, before I get going on my review, I just wanted to note that I would call this book mature YA rather than just normal YA. […]
3 stars — Well, I ended this one feeling quite conflicted. And as usual, I couldn’t resist going to Goodreads and reading through lower star reviews to see if I could help pinpoint my gripes. *slaps hand* What’s funny is that at least half of those people had the opposite gripe of me wrt to […]
