Devils’ Day Party by C.M. Stunich

Devils’ Day Party by C.M. Stunich

Favorite Quotes: Perspective is important, isn’t it? Something that seems so horrible one minute, is like a drop in the ocean the next. That’s the shit I need to stop doing, letting other’s actions influence my own happiness. I am the source of my happiness. I must also remember that I am the designer of […]

The Gatherer by A.G. Henley

The Gatherer by A.G. Henley

4.5 stars — Well colour me intrigued!!  I loved how that story of the women with the feather came into play.  It’s all super intriguing.  It gives it a bit more of a fantasy vibe than just pure dystopian.  And a wall of FIRE??  Crazy!! Lots of great detail about the world beyond what we’ve […]

The Defiance by A.G. Henley

The Defiance by A.G. Henley

4.5 stars — Well, that was a lot of crying.  I mean, I know I’m a crier, but damn. Emily Zeller was fantastic as always as the narrator.  Her voices were consistent even with the first book, and I basically just LOVE everything about how she narrates these books.  I honestly can’t imagine consuming this […]

The Keeper by A.G. Henley

The Keeper by A.G. Henley

4 stars — I might be in the minority, but I kind of love alternative POV short stories.  I love getting in the head of another major character and seeing things through their eyes.  And that’s what this short story from Peree gave me. The problem?  It was too short.  It just made me want […]

Any Boy But You by Julie Hammerle

Any Boy But You by Julie Hammerle

3 stars — I am pretty fussy with my enemies to lovers trope stories, and this one was okay, but hit some of my buttons that prevented it from being more than just okay.  Although I did stay up late reading it, so it was compelling! The problem with this one (for me) is that […]

The Scourge by A.G. Henley

The Scourge by A.G. Henley

4.5 stars — I was sucked into this book almost immediately from the start.  The concept was so unique, the details were superb, and the attention paid to Fennel’s sightlessness made me feel sightless myself.  And I genuinely think that a great book was made even more spectacular by listening to it. Emily Woo Zeller […]

Don’t Kiss the Messenger by Katie Ray

Don’t Kiss the Messenger by Katie Ray

4 stars — Well…huh.  So, this is another mixed bag for me.  On the one hand, I found both Cece and Emmett to be a bit unbearable in their pretention and snobbery…and I’m not generally a fan of seeing my MCs in a romance getting together/kissing/etc with other people (and we saw that from both […]

Girls Love Travis Walker by Anne Pfeffer

Girls Love Travis Walker by Anne Pfeffer

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — In some ways I think the blurb for this book does it an injustice. It evoked way more emotions from me than I was expecting…I guess I really thought it was gonna be more fluffy….but then again rereading the blurb it does mention what Travis is going through, so it […]

Falling for the Ghost of You by Nicole Christie

Falling for the Ghost of You by Nicole Christie

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — eeee!!! Totally fangirling all over the place with this one. This was a *happy sigh* finish. Then I started walking around thinking about all the gushing I was gonna do, and for some reason I thought maybe I should have something intelligent to say, and then I got thinking and […]

The Sweet Gum Tree by Katherine Allred

The Sweet Gum Tree by Katherine Allred

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars (rounded up) — this book was fabulous but emotionally draining… So much happened, and it really felt like a real story, where things were not perfect and suddenly happily ever after. The love between Nick and Alix was inspiring…even as it went through the ringer. I think I fell in love […]
