Christmas Book Haul

Hello all! Happy holidays!! I'll be sharing the books that I got during Christmas! I got four really good books and I'm incredibly excited to share them! I also got some book stickers to put on my laptop to show the world what a book nerd I am!! I've been wanting to read more books…

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 List by Patricia Forde

I didn’t really know what to expect when I got this book. It seemed intriguing—a girl who takes care of words in a world where people can only speak 500 words. I definitely ended up with a book that got intriguing the more you turned the page. The List by Patricia Forde In the city…

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…

12 Books of Christmas: If We Kiss

ONE DAY UNTIL CHRISTMAS! WOO! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE! I can't believe it's already so close until Christmas. I hope all of you are enjoying this time with your families and friends! So today I have a book that I read in one sitting back when I was younger. If We Kiss by Rachel Vail Blurb:…

12 Books of Christmas: Giving Up the V

Wow, only three days until Christmas!! I can't wait!! Presenting the ninth book of Christmas: Giving Up the V by Serena Robar Blurb: Spencer “Responsible” Davis is nowhere ready to “give up the V,” as opposed to her hormonally crazed crew of friends, obsessed with the who-what-when-where-how of it all. “It” being . . .…

12 Books of Christmas: Crazy in Love

The seventh book of Christmas is one that I read a long time ago and had been looking for since then (it was a library book). Only recently was I able to find it and read it again. Crazy in Love by Dandi Daley Mackall Blurb: High school senior Mary Jane Ettermeyer has been the…

Review: Snow in Summer by Jane Yolen

I got this book on Black Friday. Originally another book from this author caught my eye, so much so that the reviews on the back of that one brought me to this one. I bought both books that day and have since become a fan of this author. Snow in Summer: Fairest of Them All…

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 Siren by Tiffany Reisz

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…

Review on Defiance

Let me start off by saying that I didn't know if I wanted to read this book or not. I originally bought it because I really liked C.J. Redwine, and she was really great on Twitter. I bought this book with a mere glance at the blurb—and that's not like me. So when it arrived…

FFT: Brave Enough to Smile

This is a new thing I'll be doing randomly on the blog. I call it "Food for thought." I'll ramble about things that I think are important for others to know. I was reading a post from Kristen Ashley's blog, and she tells this story where she saw this really hot guy was interested in…

Review: Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler

When Carrie (see: The October Club) introduced this book, I read the blurb and immediately thought it seemed interesting. I wanted to read it because it was a novel idea. I mean, writing a book in letter format? To your ex explaining why you broke up? It seemed fascinating. So this is it. Why We…

Review: An Abundance of Katherines by John Green

Let me start off by saying that this is my first John Green book. I started with this one because I felt this was one I wouldn't start bawling in the middle of, such as with The Fault in Our Stars (which I'm told is amazing but ends semi-sadly and has death and such involved.)…

Review: Models Don’t Eat Chocolate Cookies by Erin Dionne

I came about this book in a very interesting way. My grandma used to work at a school where they had a library, and every once in a while she would ask us to come with her so we could pick out some books that the school didn't need anymore. So I would go through…
