3.5 stars — I’m not a huge Twilight fan, though I enjoyed the stories and the movies (to some degree). They’re very much a guilty pleasure, and for all their faults I am entertained by the series. I will admit though, that when I got the audiobook from the library and saw that it was […]
4 stars — After rereading book 2 in this series, I *had* to go back and reread the first one. There’s something about the whole premise of being trapped in a mall, trying to foil bad guys that just appeals to me. And I almost wonder if I enjoyed it even more the second time […]
4.5 stars — I was so afraid of starting this book, b/c I remember how Hallowed Ground had slayed me. I couldn’t even bring myself to reread the series before reading this one, b/c the emotions just hit home so hard. But as a result of not rereading, I feel like I can confirm that you […]
4.5 stars — Wow, it’s so hard to decide, but I think this was my favourite of the 3 so far! Still absolutely adored Mary Jane Wells as the narrator. She’s so consistent with her voices, with distinguishing between thoughts and dialogue, and she NAILS both the humour and the emotion of our characters. Penny was […]
2.5 stars — Well…I guess this is one series I should NOT have finished. I should have listened to my gut that had me avoiding reading Garrett’s book, b/c this one definitely disappointed. Or maybe it’s that it lived down to my low expectations. Basically, if you’re hoping that Garrett has a huge transformation, or […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 5 stars — OH YEAH BABY!!! LOVED IT!! This was the book where my hubby looks over at me, sees me grinning like a moron and asks “good book Lenore?” This is the book where I give the big happy sigh at the end. This is the book where I’m fighting back tears […]
4 stars — Yay!! That was a solid finish to the series! I was getting worried b/c I was liking the books less and less as we went along…and while this one did have some things that irked me, there were some other things that surprised the heck out of me and I adored! So […]
3.5 stars — This book was not quite what I was expecting…which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it did leave me feeling a bit unsatisfied in some areas. I actually started off listening to the audiobook I got from the library, but I wasn’t a fan of either narrator, so I switched to the […]
4.5 stars — This felt like a true coming of age YA novel…just one that brings more diversity and representation. And while I learned a LOT about being trans, and about all the different flavours of queer out there, if you break it down it’s also just about Felix figuring out who he is, coming into […]
3.5 stars — Well…this one gave me mixed feelings. I was really looking forward to finding out what happened to Courage too!! But it definitely didn’t live up to my expectations. Maybe I’ve outgrown this series. I will finish it, but I feel like the books have not been getting better as we go along… […]
