MY THOUGHTS I picked up this book, expecting a dystopian, but while this book had dystopian elements, this book is incredibly realistic. And I loved it! This book takes place in a walled city, obviously, full of crime and poverty. It's a horrible place to...

MY THOUGHTS I loved These Broken Stars, so I was excited to read this book! This book wasn't quite as amazing as These Broken Stars, but I still loved it! Lee is captain of soldiers on the planet Avon. The goal there is for them...

MY THOUGHTS I was actually disappointed by this book. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't what I was expecting. Nick has been having flashbacks of a past he can't remember. All featuring a girl covered in blood. Nick is wondering who the girl is and...

MY THOUGHTS This book was very different than the first book! I didn't like this as much as the first book, but this is still a very great read! Charlie is now Queen of Ludania, after defeating Sabara, but Sabara isn't dead. Sabara is living inside...

MY THOUGHTS When I'm about to start a book, I prefer to not read the synopsis. Do I read the synopsis when I add it to my TBR list, a little, yes, but by the time I read the book I have forgotten what the synopsis said. I...

MY THOUGHTS A glimpse at the synopsis, and one might think that this is just like every other YA book. While this book can be predictable at times, it's actually a very unique and enjoyable read! This book focuses on Becca, a very smart 17-year...

MY THOUGHTS I've been wanting to read this book for such a long time and I'm glad to say I was not disappointed! The book follows Kiera, who is pretty normal, though she is a piano prodigy. She knows what she's doing with her life and...

MY THOUGHTS I didn't really know much about this book, going into it. I knew it had something to do with mythology and that's it. I ended up finding an enjoyable read with lots of mythical elements! Zephyr has been stuck in Tartarus for the...

MY THOUGHTS I read an ARC copy of The Madness Underneath back in late 2012. Imagine the pain when I finished that book and came across one of the worst cliffhangers! Of course, it became even worse when the next book, this book, didn't come out until 2015. That...

MY THOUGHTS This was such a beautiful and brilliant book that I easily finished in one night! Aysel currently lives with her mother and stepfamily in a depression. She has a mediocre job, she feels like her stepfamily doesn't want her there, her mother doesn't...

MY THOUGHTS There are so many great things about this book! The most interesting aspect of this book definitely has to be the idea. This book revolves around a society where people's memories are kept in Links, which are beads that people generally wear...

MY THOUGHTS This is a very interesting take on mythology and the Persephone myth! I have never read another idea quite like this one! Haden Lord lives in the Underrealm and has been disgraced by all of his people, even his own father, the king....
