Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/06/28/review-legacy-by-cayla-kluver/ After I finished Legacy, the first thing I did was look up more about the author. Check out her bio: Writing has always been Cayla Kluver’s passion. It wasn’t until her freshman year in high school that she...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/06/27/review-the-iron-witch-by-karen-mahoney/ I was actually pretty disappointed with The Iron Witch. The idea the book was based on was so intriguing, and yet the book itself fell flat. Donna is an alchemist. And not the changing-things-to-gold alchemist, the killing-pesky-fairies-on-earth alchemist....

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/06/04/review-the-iron-daughter-by-julie-kagawa/ I actually read this book quite a while ago, but I had been contemplating publishing my review. Not because it was so bad that I would feel guilty for posting such a bad review, but because I wanted to post the...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/06/11/review-hereafter-by-tara-hudson/ Amelia doesn’t remember her past. She can’t remember her last name, who her parents were, when she died, how she died … She only remembers that she died in the river underneath High Bridge. And then all that changes when she...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/05/24/review-the-goddess-test-by-aimee-carter/ Books based on Greek mythology have taken a backseat ever since the huge outburst of paranormal romances. And it’s a pity, because Greek mythology is one of my favorite parts of fiction. Just trying to remember all the names — from...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/06/03/review-darkness-becomes-her-by-kelly-keaton/ I don’t think that it’s any secret that I automatically add fantasy books dealing with New Orleans onto my “to be read” list. But even if Darkness Becomes Her didn’t even mention New Orleans or Louisiana at all, I still think...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/06/26/review-clarity-by-kim-harrington/ I cannot even begin to explain how much I enjoyed reading Clarity. I’ve always been a huge fanatic with murder mysteries. I absolutely adore Agatha Christie’s and Arthur Conan Doyle’s murder mysteries (my favorites are And Then There...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2012/04/04/review-city-of-bones-by-cassandra-clare/ Opening City of Bones is like a fantasy: first you’re engulfed by this strange new world of Shadowhunters and mundanes, angels and demons, vampires and werewolves, and fey and warlocks. Then as you get wrapped up in this unique world, you...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/04/23/review-chime-by-franny-billingsley/ Chime was a bit of a difficult read for me. At first, I was thrown off by the writing of the author and the time period and setting. The language was different, the style of writing was different, the thoughts of...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/05/18/review-angel-by-james-patterson/ I generally don’t review books in a series without reviewing the books before it, except I figured that you didn’t want a review of a book that I barely remembered! So, a fair warning right now. If you haven’t read all...

Previously published on my blog: http://fictionfervor.wordpress.com/2011/04/13/review-across-the-universe-by-beth-revis/ I love books that aren't constrained to just one genre. I like mythological creatures with romance. I like dystopia with the supernatural. I like a little murder mystery tinged with love. I like that. So you can imagine that I was...
