Powerful, dark and emotional book.

Is it possible to love a book and simultaneously rip out the last pages. If so, that is my feelings after reading Empty. The ending hit me in a way to personal level and i cried and nearly didn't...

love this series

Though a few of the details were fuzzy, it did not take me long to dive back into Kylie's world and character. I love her voice, the sarcasm, the emotion and the kindness and loyalty to her friends. She wants and needs answers, and she takes the...

I love this series, the characters and Maria's writing

Maria has done it again. This next instalment of the Healer series is just as amazing as I've come to expect of her writing. I love the world that she's created. It has magic elements, but I can totally see myself a part...

Absolutely loved and recommend. Wonderful start to a new trilogy.

Let the fangirling commence. Oh my goodness, what a story. I loved it from the first word to the last emotional scene. Alexandra has created a story with a unique plot, amazing characters, and she is one heck of a writer. I couldn't believe the...

Great plot, characters that I felt for and amazing premise.

I loved the concept of what's left of me and Zhang pulled it off wonderfully. I enjoyed getting to know Eva and Addie, their similarities and differences. They were more different than I would have expected since I...

Connected with main character, and loved the premise and how it was executed.

I really connected with Liv and I was so intrigued by the plot of All the Broken Pieces. Cindi Madsen pulled it off beautifully. I lives the characters as well as Olivia's voice. Spencer was...

While this wasn't my favorite contemporary it was a pleasant enough read.

The dual narrative worked well for this book though at first I wasn't so sold. But it gives a unique flavor to the book. I got a sense of both of the characters but not so much of how their stories meet. This was the point of...

Cute and funny story with good characters

I really liked Julia, the main character of Meant to Be. She is the right blend of nerdy, smart and quirky. The backdrop of Meant to Be is London, and it was charming to read about, I could almost picture myself there with the descriptions on the...

Absolute page turner

I was in love with Ethan from the start. He is broody, and I connected with his voice. I could understand where he was coming from with his attitude and I liked the glimpses of the person he really is through the shell. ...

Great book, awesome series, amazing author.

There isn't much to say besides wow. And I loved it. Alex continues to kick butt and take names, Aiden is hot as ever and we get to see a whole new level with him... Seth is mysterious and dangerous as ever, and there are...

Enjoyed!

I think Ms. Linko wrote a winner in Flutter. I am immediately drawn to the main character Emery. I like books with medical issues and also books with supernatural elements and this managed to take those two things and fuse them into something awesome. ...

Gritty and realistic story with three distinct main characters, beautiful and shocking.

This is Not Forgiveness is darkly beautiful and draws you into this story with three main characters, all with their own voice and all with their own issues. The opening wasn't what I expected and I needed to...

Beta breathes a breath of fresh air into the dystopia genre

Beta has such an awesome concept. I was drawn into Elysia's world and mind, wondering what would happen next, what she would feel that she wasn't supposed to and how her world would change. I could connect with Elysia because she has...

Enjoyable story and sweet love story

Time Between Us had me from hello. A girl falling for a boy she shouldn't met, but totally making it work. I loved the synopsis, and the first chapter/prologue thingy drew me in. I wanted to know what led them to that place, what...

Important subject, handled well. Great MG read that can appeal to older readers as well.

I totally related with Windy. Not in the popular crowd, but not really completely on the outside crowd either. On that edge and wanting to change so many things about yourself. I also related with the feeling of doing things I didn't necessarily want to...
