Fixing Delilah

I loved Sarah Ockler's other book, Twenty-Boy Summer, and I expected the same beautiful writing and heartfelt story for Fixing Delilah. I got exactly that. Delilah is a great character to relate to. I related well with being caught up in the family drama, and I...

Tyger Tyger

I've grown to love books that are fairy tale like. Anything passed down from mythology has me instantly hooked! This is the second book I have read about Celtic Mythology, and I loved it from the very start. (I'm also prepared to go to Ireland at this point.) ...

Sing Me to Sleep

Some Spoilers Ahead. Sing Me to Sleep started off slow, but the last few chapters were a ride. A ride that had me in tears. I was bored and anxious for a good part of this book because of Beth and Derek’s relationship. (Mostly...

City Island

Every once in awhile, that one movie comes along that has a little bit of everything in it. Comedy. Drama. Weird. Awesome. City Island is perfection at its best. And I wouldn't have picked this movie up if...

The Hunger Games

I’m not one of those people who obsess over whether or not a book and its movie counterpart are exactly the same. Scene by scene. Word for word. I realize that this is not always possible. However, it always seems...

Great

Didn't think it could get any better than the first one. Well, I was wrong. This is a great follow up to Eighth Grade Bites. He's in high school now, but that is not the only thing that has changed for Vladimir. *RBC

First book I ever read about vampires! Action packed and strangely relatable. Excluding the vampire part. Every other book in this series is just as epic as this one! *RBC

The Last Olympian

A great ending to a great series. Sad that it is over, but happy that I got to experience this. Also, this was a very action packed quest! One of my favorites. * reviewed by Chance

This is my absolute favorite in the whole series! Everything about it from the quest to the new characters to the myth this book was based off of. It was all awesome! Just all over awesome. *reviewed by Chance

Nevermore

Since Nevermore first came out, I have seen tons and tons of reviews doting all over this book. I ignored it and found other great books, and some not so great, to read. I kept putting off buying it, because it just seemed like every other book with the similar...

I hate that this book had to end. I don’t really know how to explain how much I love it. How much it spoke to me. It just did. It screamed at me, actually. Amazing. Incredible. Enlightening. Beautiful. Heartbreaking. Stunning. ...

Darker Still

I heard a lot of mixed reviews about this book. I went into it thinking it was just going to be some historical murder mystery. It was so much more than that! Natalie and Jonathan are great characters with some very steamy scenes! Very romantic. I've never...

Ezra Miller as Patrick has got to be the best thing ever! So I love this book, but I kinda dislike it in some ways. Charlie broke my heart throughout this entire book. He seemed so naive. It's more than a coming of age story, it's also a deep book...

A Little Wanting Song

Oh, man. It seems like every book I read by an Australian author is freaking amazing. This is just another brick to the awesome house of Australian books. What the hell is in the water in Australia that makes great writers? I've been waiting quite some time...
