3.5 stars — This one started a bit slower for me, I was enjoying it, but it wasn’t blowing me away. It ended with a blast though! It just sped right up and kind of overwhelmed me! But strangely, even though it ends on a cliffhanger, I haven’t decided if I’ll continue. Probably not. While […]
4.5 stars — I saw this book on sale on one of my bargain book emails (BookBub I think), and while I haven’t read any by Ms. Cherry, I do have a few and I’ve heard great things. And she’s going to be attending an author event I’ll be at in the fall, so that […]
3 stars — I thought now would be the perfect time to finally read Ms. Regnery’s Beauty and the Beast retelling, what with the new movie out…and crap on a cracker, it just didn’t work for me. It’s so weird, b/c I really enjoy her Blueberry Lane books, but this is now the second of […]
3 stars — Wellllll…*beep* I mean seriously. I am a big ball of torn. I don’t even know what that means, good start Lenore. So here’s the thing. There were two things about the way this book was written that just bugged the crap out of me. I mean SERIOUSLY drove me batty. And I will […]
4 stars — I’m often loathe to read books that are so highly regarded by so many people, b/c I’m always worried I will be the black sheep. And I sort of am in a way for this book, in that unlike my friends, this was not a full 5 star read for me. In […]
3.5 stars — Well darn. I just didn’t connect to this book like I was expecting to. I love Ms. Regnery’s Blueberry Lane novels, but this is the first of her Modern Fairytale stories that I’ve read. I’ll still give the others a try, but I think I had some expectations for it from seeing people […]
4.5 stars — I’m a day late, but I started reading this book to fulfill the January theme for one of my Diversity challenges, which was “Stories based on/ inspired by diverse folktales/culture/mythology.” This book fit that theme PERFECTLY and I’m so glad I picked it up with this challenge in mind, b/c I was […]
5 stars — My wonderful co-conspirator, Curly Carla, loaned this book to me through Kindle (which we both didn’t think was going to work since I’m in Canada and we Canadians can’t loan books, BUT IT DID!)!! And I adored it so much I immediately upon finishing went out and bought it so I didn’t […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 5 stars — UNPUTDOWNABLE. Seriously. I started reading this b/c I was at the release party for it and there was a part where the author posted a video of her reading the prologue and first chapter of the book. Well, when I started bawling at the end of the prologue, I had […]
4.5 stars — Oooooo!!! I sincerely hope this is the start of a new series by Ms. Yarros, b/c I want to know ALL THE STORIES!! This little novella was a great introduction to the town of Legacy and the Hotshots. And Bash and Emerson were fantastic! Lots of angst and heartbreak, but also lots […]
