Favorite Quotes: Even the rebels don’t particularly care about using people. They might not be as blatantly cruel and destructive, but I guess that perspective simply depends on whether you hold the power or are the victim. Tumbling a few times, I ended up face down, my pack thrown to the side. I stayed like […]
Favorite Quote: On the verge of an apocalypse filled with monsters and torture in a nightmare world. And I’m standing here, a moonstruck teenager pining for an enemy soldier. What am I, crazy? This time, I’m the first to turn away. This book meets the Plague space requirement for #SFvFBingo being hosted by Curiosity Killed the […]
Favorite Quotes: There are kids my age, but I don’t recognize any of them. Even though a lot of them are as tall as adults, they don’t stray far from their parents. Some of the girls are tucked under the arms of their moms or dads like little kids. They seem safe and secure, protected […]
Favorite Quotes: I shove the horrible, screaming images in my head into the dark, silent place in my mind that is getting deeper and more crowded each day. One day soon, the things I stuff in there will burst out and infect the rest of me. Maybe that will be the day the daughter becomes […]
The best thing about this story was not the romance but the world building and the interaction between tribes/species. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the romance, it was tactile and erotic and the chemistry was oh so yummy! But the island they lived on was so fascinating. How primative the tribes were was different […]
Another DNF for me. The world building was on point but the storyline didn’t have enough to hold my interest. It was too slow for me to keep going. I had to move on. Plus I failed to see any way where they would be together. And I really didn’t want them to.
Favorite Quotes: White-hot fury burns through me, scouring me hard enough that there’s no doubt about how I feel about her. No doubt that whatever I fuck up, whatever I ruin, I’ll always come back to her. She’s a riptide, constantly pulling me under, and I’ll sink away and drown before I come up for […]
This book is one of my favorites in the series. After this one it kinda all goes downhill for me. Re-reading it with my daughter in this day really makes me think of the differences in our mindsets from when I was a kid and readinf it now. For instance, Eutace is a wretched boy. […]
This book took a bit of a detour. It takes place in the world but not with the rest of the cast of characters. But since this is a novella I’m pretty satisfied with it. You do not have to read this in order BTW. Although some little things would make sense if you did. […]
Okay, the last half of the book really picked up for me. It was slow going there for a minute in the first half of the book. It almost seems like the author switched up the whole story half way through. The difference in the writing is very noticeable. I remember really liking the first […]
