3 stars — Hmmm… OK. So this book frustrated me. There were parts that really sucked me in and kept me enthralled. But there were also parts that made me feel uncomfortable. And we’re going to start with those and get them out of the way. Now, I might just be super sensitive, I’m not […]
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 one had a lot of potential, but in the end I’m wondering if I should have DNF’d it. This was an ARC that I hadn’t gotten to 2 years ago, so obviously I realize it’s not the final copy. As such, I’m fine ignoring the typos and assuming those got fixed. […]
4 stars — Guess who has a crying headache now? Oh, that would be me!!! I wasn’t sure how I was going to like this one, as it’s a bit out of my wheelhouse in a couple of ways: a) I don’t tend to read historical; and b) it was written as a series of […]
4 stars — After my mixed feelings on Daniel and Madison’s book, I was wary of what this book was going to be like for my adorable Tyler and Eva….but I need not have worried, I was sucked right in and feeling all the feels! I will admit, there were still times I *really* had […]
3.5 stars — It’s been so long since I read the first one that I actually went back and speed-read it before reading this one. While it does say in the blurb that you don’t need to read the first, I feel like you’d be missing out if you didn’t. I think I still liked […]
DNF @ 19% — I just wasn’t engaged in the story. It was a bit far-fetched, but I knew that going in with the blurb… It wasn’t that so much as I just didn’t care about our protagonist. I felt like I wasn’t getting to know him at all, and it was just a recounting […]
4-stars — OMG!! I mean, I totally knew this wasn’t going to be the last book in the series, and I know they always end with a lot of questions, but wow…it’s going to be seriously hard waiting for the next book, and I have NO IDEA what’s going to happen! This book went in […]
3.5 stars — Definitely a fun ride, but I didn’t feel quite as connected to Sadie and Ethan as I was to Jake and Christa in book 1. I think I might have had certain expectations of Sadie as we saw her in the first book, and so the direction this book took threw me off […]
4 stars — Well, this one ended with a lot of tears…it’s been a few months since a book has done that to me. And it wasn’t the only time I teared up in this book! Which is not to say that this is a sad book, by any means. But Vela goes through some […]
