A friend of mine, Stacee, runs this blog where she details her adventures in going to author events and getting books signed. I love reading it because I love going to events and getting books signed. And I guess I enjoy inciting the green burn of envy in my veins because I read all of…

I thought I knew what this book was going to be about based off the summary. Oh, it’s another one of those “Freaky Friday” switch-a-roo books, I mistakenly thought. The only real reason I picked it up is because Roxanne St Claire wrote it as her YA debut novel. But I was wrong to force…

Remember this feature? Well, I’m bringing it back since I’ve been reading a lot more “adult” books that aren’t necessarily romance. Up first is… Amped by Daniel H. Wilson Technology makes them superhuman. But mere mortals want them kept in their place. Enter a stunning world where technology and humanity clash in terrifying and surprising…

I had the pleasure of meeting Jennifer Bosworth during the Fierce Reads tour and was glad that I was able to read Struck before the event. It was a fun, fast read with sci-fi, post-apocalyptic, and paranormal elements. But somehow they all worked very well together. Mia Price is a lightning addict. She’s survived countless…

There are certain subject matters I’ll always gravitate toward, and one of those is ghost love stories. It might have something to do with how I was exposed to Ghost at a very young age, or the fact that every single time Heart & Souls comes on, I have to watch it. I don’t know….

Christine: I’m always nervous about reading second books in a trilogy. They can either disappoint you or live up to the first book, or on a very rare occasion, exceed expectation. While Goddess Interrupted didn’t exceed expectation, it did a good job trying to live up to the first book, which is hard to do…

I’m of the mind that summer books can be heart breaking. I know it seems perverse, the sun is shining, the sky is blue, hopefully waves are lapping at your feet and life is beautiful- so why would you want to read about heart fail? Well think of it this way, would you prefer your…

When planning our awesome Summer Reads week, we realized we’d already reviewed a bunch of books that are perfect for the beach.  So here are some quick blurbs, plus links to the full reviews, of some awesome Summer Reads. Christine: Scott Pilgrim by Bryan Lee O’Malley This is a graphic novel series I enjoyed. It’s…

For our second Summer Reads book, I chose The Lost Code by Kevin Emerson because it takes place at a summer camp. And not just any summer camp but one in the middle of a post apocalyptic world on it’s last legs. Plus, Atlantis. What’s not more awesome than Atlantis? I think YA needs more…
