Guess what? Gretchen and I (we’re on a first name basis) both have the same favourite Curious George book. Curious George Goes to the Hospital. This isn’t important to the story or this review at all. I just really love that book and was overjoyed to see it mentioned in Possess. Fifteen-year-old Bridget Liu just…
Five glorious months ago I won an ARC of Dearly, Departed from Goodreads. As soon as it arrived in the mail, I dropped everything to read it. Two days and 500 pages later, I found myself instantly craving the next book. Unfortunately, the joy of getting an ARC soon becomes depression when you realize you have…
I love love stories. And it’s no wonder with how many romance books I read in a month that I wanted to read Kiss Crush Collide as soon as I read the summary. It fit my love of forbidden romances and bad boys who fall for good girls, so I’m so glad I was able…
When I first heard of this book I was overcome by two strong but conflicting emotions: NEED for the book because the cover was gorgeous and the title spoke to my soul(!), and worry because the main character’s name sounded a lot like the author’s name and I didn’t really want to read a self-insert…
Hey guys! Today we’re joined by Michael Griffo, author of the Archangel Academy series – Unnatural and the just released, Unwelcome. He graciously answered a few questions we had concerning his series, his inspiration, and his life. 1. How did you come up for the idea of the Archangel Academy series? The kernel of the idea came to…
Ever felt like someone was watching you, but when you turn around, no one’s there? I know I have, as I’m sure everyone has at one time. It’s a creepy feeling. But what if someone actually was watching you? What would you do? Who would turn to? The videos went viral… EVER FEEL LIKE SOMEONE’S…
Shifting, by Bethany Wiggins, is one of those books that I’m not entirely sure why I wanted to read it. Looking at it now nothing about the description (or the cover of the ARC) seems as if it would be appealing to me, personally. After bouncing from foster home to foster home, Magdalene Mae is…
At first I wasn’t going to do one of these because I was sure my list would be basically the same as Leiah’s. She does have excellent taste in books…by which I mean we like the same thing most of the time. But then I was thinking about it a bit and I realized she…
I like boarding school books. There has always been something about them that interests me. Kids being away from their homes and parents creating little microcosms of society. I think they provide a perfect setting to showcase the best and worst about us. I was drawn to Robison Wells’s Variant for this very reason. Benson Fisher…
I like all kinds of books with magic. …and books without magic….but that doesn’t matter with this book. Though especially when it’s magical realism (which does apply to this book) and when it’s being used to fight evil (which doesn’t really apply to this one.) Seventeen-year-old Keri likes to plan for every possibility. She knows…
