Darker Still is a charming little book. It will captives readers everywhere with its crazy yet also logical sense of darkness and magic. Natalie Stewart is a mute girl. She's a young girl full of hope and dreams. She wants to speak again but she can't because...

WARNING: THIS BOOK IS ONLY RECOMMENDED TO THOSE WHO LOVE POETRY, HISTORY, SAD POEMS, AND EMILY DICKINSON. Okay... I'm not kidding. For those who love poetry and is sad/moody, this is the book for you. I felt that this book was too sad and moody and too...

Hollywood Hustle is a huge DISAPPOINTMENT. DON'T READ THIS BOOK. IT'S SUCH A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. DON'T EVEN BOTHER READING IT. Why? Problem #1: Less humor as the previous book. Son of The Mob was delightful and free-spirited. This book was more serious...

Wow... What an interesting read. Not the best one, but an interesting one. I found Insignia much more entertaining. Revolution 19... The robots call it Revolution 19. Revolution 18 and Revolution 19 are the two revolutions that happen in the book along with an unknown revolution. Every...

The second book in the series. I felt that a recap in the beginning would have been useful. For many parts of the book I was clueless until I remember the events that happened in the first book. It was about halfway when I just decided to pull out Wikipedia...

This book has been just sitting on my bookshelf for a long time while I was debating whether or not to read it. The synopsis was intriguing. The synopsis was killer especially this part: "To give up or to get up." The cover of the 5th Wave is...

After reading The Maze Runner series over a year ago, it's an understatement to say that I completely and totally understand The Kill Order. Truthfully, I didn't understand many parts until a dim light bulb goes on in my head. The Kill Order was much more interesting...

The sequel to Partials, the first book of the Partials Sequence. Fragments is the second book in the Partials Sequence. As revealed by the first book, Kira is a Partial. She's not human, she's a Partial. In this book, her main job is to find the...

I'll try not to reveal anything big. Okay, first of all, mental bond? Lucas and Silver are Fraternal Twins. If they were Identical Twins, the story would make much more sense, because identical twins share the same DNA and are practically the same. It sounds kind...

The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost Parker is that one traveler who stood in a yellow wood trying to decide which road to take. The less traveled by or the more traveled by road. Two choices to make. It's a huge topic of Golden. Most likely...

The synopsis slightly exaggerates the expression "For how can she deliver Death’s vengeance upon a target who, against her will, has stolen her heart?" The book only involves that expression for only one chapter. *raise eyebrows* Out of all books I love, Grave Mercy is one book...

I have to give applause to the author for how original the Mistwood is. The synopsis is another story because it was so ordinary and simple and bland. (It needs some improvement, obviously!) In summary, Mistwood is a stunning beautiful story, lost in the neverending stacks...

Confession: I'm reading Cross My Heart, Hope to Die only because I just want some clues hinting the identity of Sutton Mercer's killer. Cross My Heart, Hope to Die seem to have the same M.O. as the previous books. Emma finds a suspect, the suspect is...
