Excellent Sequel!

This review really only needs two words: Graham Douglas. I fell in love with Graham Douglas in the first book of this series, which is quite different than this sequel, but nothing could've prepared me for the awesome that he IS in this book. While not...

Unique, Creative and Interesting Read.

There were two versions of this e-ARC that were sent out, the second included some changes (a Prologue was added, the end was changed as well as a few other things.) and being the nosey nelly that I am, I read them both. I'm so glad I did because...

Perfect addition to the Under The Never Sky Series!

Captivating and heart-achingly romantic, this novella takes place before Under The Never Sky and tells the story of Roar and Liv, best friend and sister to Perry. What starts out as friendship, grows into a love not only worth fighting for, but when threatened, a love worth risking it all...

Fantastic Sequel!

"We don't choose the time we're born in, he says. The only choice we got is what we do while we're here. To make it mean somethin'." I could not WAIT to read the next installment in the Dust Lands Trilogy and believe me when...

Compelling, Gut-wrenching, and Romantic Debut.

This is a beautifully written story with a powerful message about love, forgiveness and discovering your true worth. Missy has not had the easiest life, whether it be because of her mother's reckless lifestyle or the bullying she's endured at the hands of her classmates and my heart broke...

Mystery, Magic and Sweet Romance.

This is an interesting and entertaining debut by author Lea Nolan, who I had the pleasure of meeting at the Baltimore Book Festival. I'm not sure this was the book for me but there is definitely an audience for it. What I liked: The friendship...

Fabulous Finale!

OMP! (OhMyPatch) It's always sad to have to say goodbye to a series with characters we've thoroughly enjoyed but a good ending makes it all worth it. The war between the Nephilim and the fallen angels is about to begin and Nora and Patch are at the...

Hilarious & Touching

Do yourself a favor, whatever age you are, and READ.THIS.BOOK! It seriously rocks! Each of these stories will touch you in some way, whether making you laugh so hard you cry or sending you into a full-on "ugly cry". You'll be able to identify with at least...

Enjoying this book is elementary my dear reader.

I have never had so much fun with a kids book before! How To Be A Detective starts off with a letter from the Investigator Extraordinaire himself, Sherlock Holmes and is jammed packed full of cool stuff! A packet with all of the tools a good detective needs...

Excellent Debut!

Intense, heart-breaking and hopeful, this little book delivers a realistic punch and is unputdownable. The story of two teens being held hostage along with a roomful of frightened first graders takes an honest look at the far reaching effects of war and the damage PTSD can do. It...

Compelling, Gut-wrenching Debut.

Thank you Netgalley and Walker Children's Books for this e-galley. I read this in one sitting, staying up until 1:30a.m. in order to finish it, something I almost never do. It's well written with engaging characters, but make no mistake, this book will break your heart and ugly crying...

A Grand Slam!

I won a copy of Stealing Parker in a Twitter contest so a HUGE "Thank You" to author Miranda Kenneally for that! I love the covers of these books (Catching Jordan and the upcoming, Things I Can't Forget) because they're simple yet pretty and all directly relate to the...

"There is love, which means there is always hope." (Yes. This.) Holy Half-bloods, I didn't think it was possible to love Aiden St. Delphi any more than I did but OH.MY.AIDEN! I have been anxiously awaiting this novella for several reasons, the most obvious being, this...

Realistic and Informative

This is an eye opening, thought provoking story filled with quite a few warnings. The dangers of food allergies go far beyond the lunchroom and people certainly need to be made aware. Combine those with temptations like drugs, alcohol and the desire to fit in, and something as harmless...

Interesting story.

This book is beautifully written with an interesting storyline. It has alternating POV's that are both unique and incredibly confusing at times. This is the kind of book you really have to pay attention to otherwise you risk missing something important. For me, it started...
