THERE WILL BE SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW!!! I can't review this one and NOT TALK ABOUT THAT ENDING! Wow. Just wow. I bought this book because a couple of my fellow bloggers in the twitterverse/blogosphere were going crazy about it. I finally read the synopsis and decided I would check it out for myself, and … Continue reading Follow Me Back by A.V.Geiger

Exile for Dreamers by Kathleen Baldwin
Alright, so I read the first book in this series way back before I started this blog, and I LOVED it! So much so that I specifically requested that my local library buy the second and third books in the series since they only had the first. Well, lo and behold, a couple of days … Continue reading Exile for Dreamers by Kathleen Baldwin
Not If I See You First by Eric Lindstrom
Okay, so I've mentioned before how I'll just purchase anything that's $3.00 or less (based off of those Goodreads Deals e-mails that I get) on the Kindle as long as the synopsis sounds fairly interesting. The problem with the inexpensive books is they tend to not be that great story-wise. The only real exception to … Continue reading Not If I See You First by Eric Lindstrom
Ticker by Lisa Mantchev
So people always ask me how I decide what books I'm going to read, and the simple answer to that question is PRICE, although I do also like a good synopsis. Goodreads is a fantastic site, as if I don't laud their praises enough, but they recently started this new thing called "Goodreads Deals" where … Continue reading Ticker by Lisa Mantchev
The Curse: Touch of Eternity by Emily Bold
Oh man, this was another of those books where the premise and synopsis sounded so promising, but the author just could not deliver. Although I will admit that the majority of my review comes from my extreme dislike of the over-dramatized writing that this author used. I understand that her target audience is teens and … Continue reading The Curse: Touch of Eternity by Emily Bold
Storm Siren by Mary Weber
I love stories that transport you in to the world of the characters; this being one of them. Nymia (Nym for short) is an extremely likable, relatable character, aside from the fact of course that she is a slave who has been sold to numerous owners and she can make it storm using her mind/body. … Continue reading Storm Siren by Mary Weber
The Secret Hour by Scott Westerfeld
I have to say, I couldn't really get in to this story. I don't know if that is because it's marketed as YA and I'm nearing 30 (shhh), or if it was just lackluster storytelling. I really liked the premise of this story, you know, people that are born at exactly midnight have the ability … Continue reading The Secret Hour by Scott Westerfeld
