Yeah this one was okay. The romance was a very slow build, with no real chemistry in my opinion. They seemed to like each other but the flirting seemed awkward and cringy. The world building kind of made up for it though, this was a great space science fictiony world. However, the story progressed too […]
3.5 stars — Well hmmm… The first (at least) 1/3 of this book was BORING as all get out. I wasn’t grabbed AT ALL, I didn’t connect with any of the characters, and nothing interesting happened (just a lot of detailed description of every single day). I was seriously starting to wonder why my friends […]
2 stars — This one wasn’t a match for me, and I don’t even know why I continued reading it. There was so much leading me to DNF it, but my curiosity got the better of me and I kept going to try to get some answers…I kept wanting it to be better than it […]
Favoirte Quote: “Hi.” I stuff my hands into my dress pockets. “I love it when dresses have pockets, don’t you?” “What imbecile would make a dress without pockets?” She raises one eyebrow. I like these hot and heavy yet, action packed short stories. They are super entertaining! These characters show growth and maturity as the […]
3 stars — OK, I know this is going to sound childish, but I’m not a fan of not knowing ahead of time if a book is going to be the first of a series or a standalone. Does it matter in the end? I suppose not. But I find if I think it’s a […]
DNF @ chapter 15 — Yeah, perhaps it was a mistake to listen to this one *right* after finishing Obsidian. I think it would be better to read it when you’ve read more in the series and then you want extra. Because diving in right away, I felt like there was barely anything new added […]
3.5 stars — Hmmm…well, this one was enjoyable, but it didn’t blow me away. Sometimes I think getting into a series so much later after it first released ends up dulling the shine a bit. I felt like there were a lot of similarities to Twilight. Not like the whole book, but just little aspects […]
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 […]
