At first I was a bit annoyed with the author for switching POVs so much. 3 is pretty much my limit for the POV switching, but this one had FIVE POVs!!! Five!! But it was an amazing book all the same, and I adored it. It didn't matter that there...

I have always loved books about assassins. There's just something about them that is so interesting (yes, you could say I have a bit of a morbid curiosity), and this book definitely didn't disappoint. Ismae lives in 15th century Brittany, which nowadays is part of north-western...

I usually don't read many contemporaries. After reading Dante's Girl, though, I am seriously reconsidering my opinion on contemporaries in general. This is a perfect, fun, light-hearted and sweet read. The romance was very sweet and just great! Every summer Reece (yes, it's a boy's name, but...

This was an amazing book. Light-hearted and fun, with some romance and a bit of action, the perfect protagonist, one forbidden love, a cute prince and 34 girls vying for his hand... what could go wrong? Well, I am going to put it out there. What was...

All throughout this book, I was thinking "What will happen next?!" First we need to find out who Miranda is, then we need to find out about her "family", then we need to find out..... yep, I will stop now. It is really easy learning about...

This is a retelling of the story Cinderella. Except in this book, Cinder is a cyborg and an alien. The plot was INCREDIBLY predictable. I suppose that's kind of the point, because we know about Cinderella, so we can draw parallels between the original and this...

Wow. Things are really starting to heat up. (SPOILER ALERT) The Alchemyst and his wife are nearly dead, Scatty and Joan of Ark are stuck 1 million years ago, Dee has got hold of Clarent AND Excalibur, and Macchiavelli and Billy the Kid are stranded on...

I thought this one was even better than Across the Universe. In my opinion, I think the pot was the best part. It was so good, always introducing a new twist, so, just as you thought you'd got the ending, there was another plot twist. And...

Chloe Saunders is fifteen years old. And she can see ghosts. Of course, when she starts freaking out about something that's other people can't see, they assume she schizo and stick her in a group home: Lyle House. Chloe soon realises that there's a lot more to Lyle House than...

When the heroine gets hit by a truck and killed in the first chapter, you know this is going to be an exciting book. Don't worry, it's not one of those that tells of the afterlife and how much it sucks and so on. I'll explain.... As...

So, we return to the world of the Trylle. Wendy has just returned back into the "normal" world with Rhys, to introduce him to her brother. Of course, Finn and another guy show up to try and tow her back to the Trylle. Of course, she resists and then she...

Yes! When I finished the last book of the Iron Fey series, I was like "Nooooooo!!!" (if you don't get the image, think about luke from star wars after he realises darth vader is his father). And then this comes out, and I must say, I was a bit apprehensive...

Honestly? Before reading this, I thought it was going to be a bit cheesy and kind of lame. I mean, genetically mutant kids with wings escaping from evil scientists and wolf guys? It sounded like one of those stupid TV shows that my brother always watches. ...

There was one sentence that I can remember from the book. "...his eyes are literally dancing with light, burning as though on fire." Emphasis on the literally. Now, I'm pretty sure the image I got in my mind was NOT the image that Oliver hoped to convey. It was funny,...

I'm not saying that I didn't enjoy Crossed in lots of places, but it's not one of those books where you scream "OH MY GOD I LOVED IT!" at the end. I would have probably given it a 3.5 star rating for the plot, instead of...
