After reading the Selection trilogy, I decided that maybe it wasn't a bad idea to try reading other books which reminded me of TV shows I didn't like. (I know, it sounds strange. Bear with me on this.) I'd been hesitant about this book in particular since while it sounded interesting, it also sounded a … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE LAST ONE by Alexandra Oliva
Tag: 4 star
I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I'll admit, there was a piece of me that was hesitant about this book. I'd read THE GIRL WHO STAYED relatively recently, and had been somewhat underwhelmed by the experience. Also, the story was apparently told a bit like the … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ALL THE MISSING GIRLS by Megan Miranda
I thought about reviewing these books separately, but I read them in such quick order one after the other, I think it's fair to put America's whole story into one review. I came across THE SELECTION, book one in this trilogy, in a Barnes & Noble several months ago when I was on a bit … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE SELECTION TRILOGY by Kiera Cass
I received an ARC of this from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. Recently I've had an interest for books that take place in space. I've always liked space, be it through stuff like Star Trek/Star Wars, or just my on-going fascination with black holes and stars. (I didn't take Orion as part of … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ADMIRAL by Sean Danker
At long last. I finally read this book. AT LONG LAST. (Spoilers for books 1-2 under the cut.) There's something a little bittersweet about final books in series. It's the point you've been trying to get to all this time; it's the grand finale where (you hope) all the questions get answered. But at the … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE HARVEST by Chuck Wendig
Okay, so I'll admit. I'm a huge fan of Wicked, both the musical and the book. I've seen The Wiz, both on stage and the movie. I haven't actually seen the original Wizard of Oz movie all that often, and nor have I had a chance to read the books. But I love the story, and the characters, … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: DOROTHY MUST DIE by Danielle Paige
Book twooo! I continue to be way too excited to read this trilogy. I've waited so long... *sniff* But particularly after where book one left off, I was particularly interested in what was going to happen next. (Note: spoilers for book one below the cut, because it is literally impossible to talk about book two … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: BLIGHTBORN by Chuck Wendig
I've been excited to read this since I first found out that the book existed and was going to be published. As with too much of the rest of the country, I have a strange fascination with tragedy and why it happens, so a book about a school shooting is right up my alley. (Particularly … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THIS IS WHERE IT ENDS by Marieke Nijkamp
This is book one of the Heartland trilogy. I've finally obtained, and read, a book one of a Chuck Wendig series. yesssssssssss But in all seriousness, my ongoing battle with Barnes & Noble, Chuck Wendig, and my propensity for obtaining book threes in trilogies has been the topic of some discussion on both here and … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: UNDER THE EMPYREAN SKY by Chuck Wendig
I've always been torn on how I should approach book reviews: whether to write the review immediately after reading the book, or waiting a bit and seeing how the book stays with me and then writing the review. Sometimes however, the decision is made for me just because of my schedule--and that's the case with … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE BOOK OF LOST THINGS by John Connolly
