The first thing you need to know about this book is the author’s first name is Rainbow, which I just can’t seem to wrap my head around. Do people call her Rain? Does she turn around when a child shouts ‘Rainbow!’ excitedly after seeing an actual rainbow? Did her parents know what they were doing…

If you’ve seen Memento, you might have a slight idea how jarring it would be for a person’s memory to be wiped every night. Now, London’s condition is not nearly so severe as that lead character’s is in the movie since hers comes with a surprising twist (and no need for tattoos covering her body)….

I picked this book up with mixed feelings. I’ve not been a fan of Claudia Gray’s writing in the past. I thought Evernight was rather silly and didn’t bother with the rest of the series. But this one is about witches! So. I had to. Obviously. When Nadia’s family moves to Captive’s Sound, she instantly…
This book was rough going. I don’t know why I’m drawn to these books about people going through horrible ordeals. Maybe it’s the train wreck mentality, or how I’ve been programmed to perceive such things as ‘entertainment’ and ‘news’ all mixed into one (thanks, media!), or maybe it’s the fact that I need to know…
In the days leading up to our most wonderiferous trip to ALA last month I’m sure my friends got absolutely sick of…well…every word that came out of my mouth. See, there were three books that I simply HAD to get. Three books that would make or break the weekend. If I got these three and…

The first time I read anything written by Alaya Dawn Johnson I was fourteen years old. She wrote my most favourite fanfiction of all time. I’m not going to go into details here but it was Sailor Moon, and involved chickens, and accidental nudity and traveling between worlds and magic and painting. She also wrote…
Today is a special treat because we have a NEW REVIEWER joining us. Her name is also Kate (confusing, I know), but we’ll find a way to distinguish between our two Kates somehow. As for now, just know that she’s awesome and we’ll hopefully get her into WordPress soon so she can start posting her…
