I can't recall exactly where I came across STARGIRL for the first time, though my guess would be I saw something about it on Goodreads. I'm not usually a reader of anything bordering on Middle Grade; it has a tendency to amplify everything I dislike about Young Adult. (This doesn't surprise me, of course. The … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: STARGIRL by Jerry Spinelli

When I got my Kindle for Christmas, I went on a bit of a spree trying to find books I could track down for either free or very low cost. I can't recall how I tracked this one down--I'm guessing it showed up somewhere in my library as a free download, but the blurb looked … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE GOOD NEIGHBOR by A.J. Banner
It's no secret that I have an incredibly long TBR list. Thus, when I talk to my friends about books they enjoy, I have to take any time they say "oh gosh you HAVE you read this book/series/etc" very lightly. If I read every book that everyone told me I should, I would genuinely never … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: IN THE WOODS by Tana French
I received an ARC of this book free of charge through NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I don't know when I picked this up, but I've had a fascination for books and characters whose lives are falling apart around them. Vices? Bring them on. Addiction? Love it. Abuse? Sure. I truly enjoy watching … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: FINDING HOPE by Colleen Nelson
I bought this book at an event put on locally around Hallowe'en time for horror etc. authors from around the eastern Virginia/Maryland/etc area. Of course, any event at a brewery is going to get my attention because hey, beer and books! But honestly I took one look at this author's name and decided I needed … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: BLAKE TWENTY-THREE by Slade Grayson
This summer, my best friend was talking to me about a book she'd read which took place around where we'd grown up, and was written by a local. I was still unemployed at the time, so she very kindly bought the book for me--and then I promptly failed to read it for months. (Because I'm … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: SONG OF SUMMER by Laura Lee Anderson
This review is written in exchange for a ARC through The Story Plant. I have to admit, you tell me that a story has a rock star--has-been or not--and you're going to catch my interest. I think there's an innate love of the rocker image born into people like me, and it's impossible to resist. … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: PERFECTLY BROKEN by Robert Burke Warren
(Double whammy reviews! This is what I get for not watching release dates.) I was given an ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. Logging into NetGalley is always a fun adventure, much like being in a library or book store. You wander around for a while, peering at book … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE PASSENGER by Lisa Lutz
I was provided a copy of this novel by the author in exchange for an honest review. Having dabbled in superhero/villain fiction myself, I'm always willing to take a look at new superhero fiction. It was one of the things that drew me to Tony Noland's VERBOSITY'S VENGEANCE. So when Kristen Brand approached me to … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: HERO STATUS by Kristen Brand
Yes, I know, I know. I talked to you about book 1 in this series last week. I'm sorry. But I wanted this book to sit on its own, because it really begins to delve into the meat and potatoes of this series, and I didn't want to bog down the last review. This one … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: UNFORGIVEN by Stephanie Erickson
