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

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
I've been reading enough lately that I think the Saturday book review will become a regular thing from now on. I don't know that I'll have one EVERY Saturday, but at least for a while I should have enough books to fill it up. Anyway! This is another Story Plant book, that I have received … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE CHANGING SEASON by Steven Manchester
To be honest, I don't remember how I came upon this book. I'm guessing something popped up on either Facebook or Twitter from the author, offering the first two books in a trilogy for free, and I decided “well hey, why not, free books are good.” Because I can't find anything in my email prior … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: UNSEEN by Stephanie Erickson
In many ways, this has been a review long-coming. Quite a while ago now, I saw Dearen talking on her Twitter account about Alora and the upcoming book. There was a sale going on--but it was only on the Kindle store, and I only had a Nook. I sent a message off to her, asking … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ALORA: THE WANDER-JEWEL by Tamie Dearen
There are two kinds of books, when it comes to characters staying with you after the final page: the ones who wrap themselves so deeply into your brain you'd swear that just for a moment, they were real...and the ones who are stuck there as your brain keeps trying desperately to figure out what the … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: DIVIDED by Sharon M. Johnston
I received an ARC for this book from NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review. If absolutely nothing else, the initial blurb of this book is enough to make me grab it off the shelf. Dark things happening! There was a war! Ugly truths! Risks being taken and secrets being kept! Woo! What more could … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: An Inheritance of Ashes by Leah Bobet
I've never read any of Jodi Picoult's work before, though a quick look at a Books-A-Million the other day showed me that I'd be willing to at least give them a shot. So when Between the Lines and its sequel Off the Page started showing up in my BookTube world, I didn't quite know what to expect. … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult and Samantha Van Leer
Despite having heard of the book The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, I did not recognize Ann Brashares' name as the author when presented with the opportunity to review The Here and Now. I am an avid fan of Young Adult fiction, and the premise seemed interesting. I am a little wary of YA novels … Continue reading Book Review – The Here and Now
Normally, I wouldn't put two book reviews together, but it's been a while since I posted and these two books belong together. At the suggestion of my father, I read these two books, Blue and its prequel Until Again by Lou Aronica, over the course of two days. And even if I weren't making a … Continue reading DOUBLE BOOK REVIEW: UNTIL AGAIN and BLUE by Lou Aronica
