Review: Not Your Sidekick by C.B. Lee

I hadn’t even gotten through half of the book when I ordered the second and third in the series. That’s how much I enjoyed this book. Not Your Sidekick by C.B.

Review: Reverie by Ryan La Sala

As a person who gobbles up fantasies as if they were candy, and therefore has explored many worlds and tropes, Reverie was breathtakingly original. Not that there isn’t anything wrong with not being original—I enjoy those stories too—but I have honestly never read of a concept like this one before. I was so enthralled in…

Review: Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

As I recover from binge-reading this book, a few words circle around in my brain: this book was amazing. Not only does it have magic, complex characters, and a cause many of us can relate to, but it also has amazing world-building and a plot that will pull at your heartstrings. As a Latina, I…

Review: Secondborn by Amy A. Bartol

Bartol Firstborns rule society. Secondborns are the property of the government. Thirdborns are not tolerated. Long live the Fates…

Review: The Falconer by Elizabeth May

It’s been a long time since I’ve encountered a book that pulls me in so deep, that I devour it. I first started this book on an airplane, which was a very bad idea. This meant that I was going to be interrupted as I landed, and wouldn’t really be able to keep reading until…

Review: The Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco

This book was everything I wanted it to be and more. The cover is amazingly beautiful and truly got my hopes up as well as raised my expectations, and the book well surpassed both. The Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco The beast raged; it punctured the air with its spite. But the girl was fiercer.…

Review: The Northern Heart by Sasha L. Miller

This book was exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’ve been in quite of a reading slump, not really knowing what I want to read and not really liking what I’m reading. However, this book managed to pull me out of that slump quite brilliantly. The Northern Heart by Sasha L. Miller Several weeks ago…

Book Review: Reboot

Alright, so I bought Reboot quite a while ago, but I hadn’t had the chance to read it until now. Now I’m kicking myself for not reading it sooner. Without further ado, here is... Reboot by Amy Tintera Five years ago, Wren Connolly was shot three times in the chest. After 178 minutes she came…

Review on The Sea of Tranquility

*deep breath in* *deep breath out*I’m currently on a book hangover from this book. Gah. So good. I can’t express how good this is. I promise my review is much more eloquent but I thought I’d write a little note here. If you’re on the fence about reading this book—go read it. If you’ve never…

Review: Life After Theft by Aprilynne Pike

So originally, what drew me to this book was the cover. I mean look at it—it’s gorgeous. Then the author’s name: Aprilynne Pike. I’ve heard amazing things about her. And then the actual storyline. A kleptomaniac ghost? I hadn’t heard that one before. So I bought the book (and got it signed!!!) and finally read…

Review: Forever by Maggie Stiefvater

I first read Shiver back when it first came out and I had to wait a whole year for book 2. After that, I had to save money for things like food and gas for the car, so I couldn't buy many books. This series has been staring at me in the eye going like…

Review: Rooftops of Tehran by Mahbod Seraji

I got this book at my school during orientation. Everyone at orientation was allowed to pick a book from the choices they had, and a good friend of mine recommended this book for me. It isn't the typical genre I read, so I was dubious, but I got it anyway. Though this book is not…

Review: The Two Princesses of Bamarre by Gail Carson Levine

My best friend suggested this book for me, and I read it because of her. But let me tell you, that's not the reason I enjoyed it. I will keep beating myself up for not reading the author's name on this book (or rather, not paying attention to it), otherwise I would never have put…
