Okay. So. I loved The Goddess Test. Really. I thought it was great how it was inspired by Greek myths but didn’t feel the need to stick to closely to them. I loved the characters and the mystery and how not all the questions got answers at the end but we still weren’t left hanging….

Okay. I read this book in July and then…I don’t know…decided not to write the review right away, so you’re all going to have to bear with me here. Sophronia Temminnick at 14 is a great trial more interested in dismantling clocks and climbing trees than proper manners — and the family can only hope…
That’s right, it’s back! I’ve built up a rather alarming amount of books I’d like to see go to good homes since the last time we had a Saturday giveaway. If you’ve done this before, you know the drill. If not, welcome to the first of many Secondhand Saturday posts! These are the books currently…
Nightshade was one of the very first ARCs I ever got. I picked it up at Comic Con 2010 and read it soon afterwards. It was one of my very first reviews here on the sight. But between reading the first one, and the publication of the second one, Wolfsbane, I came to hate love…
Do you know what Epic Reads is? No? Well you should. You should also know that Epic Reads exists because of the benevolence of King Snarkles, the reading hedgehog. …uh…if this isn’t making any sense to you then I don’t how to explain. Just know that reading is great and hedgehogs are cute and when…
I remember the fortunate moment when I got an advanced copy of Marie Lu’s Legend in my hot little hands. I was excited. Very excited. It ticked many of my boxes. Dytopian? Check. Crazy smart heroine? Check. Learning to see like from another point of view? Check. Zombies? No. Alas. No zombies. But that’s ok,…
Confession time: I wanted to read this book since it was an indie published under the title “Good Oil”. I was thrilled when I learned it was going to be published in the states under a new name and then it showed up on NetGalley several months ago and I was absolutely ecstatic Of course I…
I feel like I’ve been waiting for this book FOREVER…when it’s actually only been six months since I read Rift. But I just love Ember and Barrow so much and I needed to know the end of their story! Everything Conatus stands for is at risk. Hoping to gather enough resistance to save their order,…
I love Gayle Forman. I loved the emotional catharsis of reading If I Stay and Where She Went. Enjoyable days where I sobbed for hours and hours. Really, she writes the feel good books of the century. Also, she is fan of Jellicoe Road, and we all know how I feel about that particular book….
