Not your average Mythology.

What I loved: I really enjoyed this. It's unlike any other mythology inspired book I've read because it takes into account free will in addition to the good and evil that resides in all of us. The detailed world building makes you feel as if you've just stepped into...

This is one book that lives up to it's title!

I love the complexity of this cover, from the colors, the pictures in those tiny squares, to her face. I don't like Eden. There, I said it. What I loved: I'm a huge fan of dual POV and this one gives us Fia's...

Not your average American bank robber.

What I liked: It's interesting to read a book that's been translated from another language and this one was originally written in French. A story about a French bank robber is a unique change from the average MG read. It's obvious that Anthony's Dad loves him even if he...

Most original angel book I've ever read!

I DEVOURED this book in a matter of hours! What I liked: Speer uses L.A. and the world of celebrities as well as people's obsession with angel worship as the backdrop for this story. (Instead of watching the Oscars, people watch the Commissioning each year...

Full of fun inventive mischief!

This is a cute read for any science loving kid! Charlie wants to be a real-life inventor and while he's already gotten started on a few creations, they don't always turn out the way he plans. In fact, they tend to get him in trouble. (Oops!) Through...

Great sequel!

Fast-paced, action packed with fantastic kid characters who battle evil while using prayer as their ultimate weapon? Doesn't get much better! Or, as my boys would say, BOO-YAH! This is a winner with kids and parents alike; kids, because the characters are relateable and...

Good Sequel

I enjoyed this sequel much more than the first book. What I liked: The writing is really good and I found the characters a little more engaging than in the previous book. Kraven, the snarky demon was my favorite and I would love to read more about...

Lightheared, Funny Romance

I haven't read Mansfield Park nor have I read all of the Shakespeare plays these characters perform but that didn't keep me from thoroughly enjoying this book! It's light-hearted, funny and the romance is heart-achingly sweet. What I liked: This story is filled with...

Mind Blowing Sequel!

To say this sequel to the electrifying Shatter Me is intense would be an understatement of epic proportions. I was merely a few pages into it when my heart decided to jump out of my chest and take up residence in my throat where it pretty much stayed before...

Fun, Fast Read!

What I liked: Fast-paced adventure and the unique take on the story of Atlantis. The world building has depth and detail. (I swore I felt sand everywhere as I read and my desire to ever eat another hotdog again was completely cured) Alison is a releatable main character with...

Fantastic Sequel!

Thank you YABC and Katherine Tegen Books for this ARC. *flails* I really enjoyed Incarnate (especially Sam) and was so excited when I found out I would have the chance to read Asunder early. I made some tea, slipped on my fingerless "Ana" gloves that I asked...

AMAZEBOTS!

What I loved: The synopsis was intriguing and I found myself sucked in from the prologue, THE PROLOGUE! It's not often that a book simultaneously cracks me up and scares the crap out of me at the same time but this one did! Nick, Cass and...

A heroine more focused on honor than choosing the right boy.

What I Liked: Clean-cut, fast-paced action with a strong female character who was spurred on by a sense of honor and duty instead of just swoon. (Not, that I don't love the swoon.) The two would-be love interests were equally as strong although one was more concerned about Kira as...

So much fun to read, but I NEED MORE!

Firelight fans need to read this for two reasons: 1) Because Az needs her own, full length story after this. 2) Because Az meets a boy who may just rival Will/Cassian in the hotsauce department. 3) Because Tate. That is all....
