4 stars — This novella was fun, solid, not too complicated. I felt for Gail, I can’t imagine having all that hope and then being faced with challenges. Also, I know what it’s like to feel like a child hates you, though that stems more from my anxiety. It was fun to finally loop this […]
4 stars — Nadine and Thrand actually weren’t what I was expecting. And in both cases that was a good thing. I was expecting Nadine to be a bit more confrontational and infuriated by Thrand’s antics…but while she occasionally became frustrated, she actually maintained a pretty good humour about his strange personality. She was wonderfully confident […]
4 stars — For some reason I thought this was going to be just Bek & Elly, and while they played a large part of the story, we actually got to see quite a few little stories in this one! It was kind of adorable, with so many couples separated (either from each other or […]
4 stars — Hmmm…the parts I loved, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED. But it wasn’t quite the humdinger I was hoping for I guess. Also, this review is going to be all over the place, apologies in advance (though I did try super hard not to spoil ANYTHING). I think I expected them to come back together quicker […]
4.5 stars — Wow. That was nothing like what I was expecting. I mean, I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t that. I was sucked in almost immediately. The first few chapters had a bit of a Titanic retelling feel, but that’s as long as that lasted (obviously). All the same, it […]
3.5 stars — While I was intrigued by the plot and where it would go, in the end I wasn’t particularly attached to the characters, or the romance, which tends to be my bread and butter…and something I need to really push a book over the top. I both listened and read, though I only […]
4 stars — Devi was a fantastic change from the everyday. I loved her nerdy science loving self, and how passionate she was about learning. I both got her reticence with N’dek and didn’t…like, I got that she wanted to protect herself from hurt, but why she held on to the bizarre belief that Bridget was […]
3.5 stars — Well, I went into this one with low expectations and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. I mean, still not a huge Hannah fan, and that’s not just because of the voice and inflection that Ms. Munroe uses to narrate her. But I guess because I […]
4.5 stars — Wow. Best bromance in the history of bromances. This book had so many surprises. And it’s going to be so hard to review because I don’t want to give ANYTHING away…and yet, so much of what I loved is spoilery. There was LOTS of science. Like, LOTS of science. And a good chunk […]
4 stars — Well that was a very satisfying novella! It was odd going back to a book set so much earlier in the series, and seeing characters I haven’t read about as much. It was also weird reading it and not listening to it. 😛 I loved seeing them set up this “holiday”, and […]
