Z Brewer has always been one of my faves. Back in my high school days I binged Vladimir Todd over and over. I distinctly remember going to Borders (RIP Borders) and requesting a great YA read that would keep me hooked. They presented me with Vladimir Todd and instantly I was in love. Z Brewer's… Continue reading #BookReview The Cemetery Boys by Z Brewer
Lost Boy by Shelley Hrdlitschka is a unique read that will take you away to a whole new culture. I was unsure how I would feel about this book, and honestly I'm still a little confused. Jon left a polygamous community to try to find a life of his own. He doesn't believe in the… Continue reading #BookReview Lost Boy by Shelley Hrdlitschka
Sadie is an intense YA thriller by Courtney Summers. This book is unique, let me tell ya! It's from two point of views: a podcaster in the form of a script for said podcast and Sadie, the missing teenage girl. Things get pretty wild: Mattie, Sadie's little sister, was brutally murdered. You need to understand… Continue reading #BookReview Sadie by Courtney Summers
Smile by Raina Telgemeier is a story that totally connected with me in ways other books couldn't. Raina's story echoes a lot of my own, and it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside to see a story like this get shared. Many kids will face dental issues and bullying, so a book like… Continue reading #BookReview Smile by Raina Telgemeier
The Hate U Give is a powerful and moving novel, that is an essential read (in my humble opinion). YA is powerful. It used to just be my escape from the world, back when I was in high school. I was lifted away to fantastical realms where the girls were in love triangles and were… Continue reading #BookReview The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas
To begin this review, I have to admit I'm a little biased. I have always enjoyed Kelley Armstrong's books and doubly so because she's Canadian (represent!!). My review will absolutely reflect that I thoroughly enjoy her writing style and I am always down for a reading ride in her books. So, off to the races...… Continue reading #BookReview The Masked Truth by Kelley Armstrong
W-O-W-Z-A. I love fairy tales and their adaptions, but Marissa Meyer takes this to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. I haven't been this glued to a series in a very long time (almost a decade... back when I was in high school). It's seriously amazing that Marissa can pull my attention so well. Seriously, I just… Continue reading #BookReview Cress by Marissa Meyer
I was absolutely thrilled that I bought the first two books in this series together, because I NEEDED to continue this series. The first book, Virals, was an absolute hit for me and Seizure continued the insanity! This time around Tory, Ben, Shelton, Hi and Cooper are off on another adventure.... except... get this... PIRATES.… Continue reading #BookReview Seizure by Kathy Reichs
Blue Lily, Lily Blue was an intriguing novel. It's my own fault that I didn't enjoy this book as much as I could have. It has been YEARS (and I mean, literally years - probably five?) since I've read the first two books in this series (The Raven Boys and The Dream Theives) so I… Continue reading #BookReview Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie Steifvater
