Audio Review: Incendiary by Amy A. Bartol

Audio Review: Incendiary by Amy A. Bartol

So far, every book in ‘s series has been hard to write. I don’t even know how to start! Incendiary is probably my favorite of the series so far. We get answers to questions that have been building, and the family Evie has built is FINALLY back together for almost the whole book. Now if […]

#MyTBRL Review: Sterling by Dannika Dark

#MyTBRL Review: Sterling by Dannika Dark

Another hard to write review….I believe this is becoming a trend for me. It’s either that or I’m about to get in a rut. Sterling by is the first in her series. This book has popped up in my Amazon recommendations SO many times that I finally caved and y’all voted it as #MyTBRL read […]

Audio Review: Indebted by Amy A. Bartol

Audio Review: Indebted by Amy A. Bartol

Why are reviews so hard to write?! Yet again I’m struggling to put words to my feelings on ‘s Indebted, the third book of her series. The book picks up where Intuition left off (and if you haven’t read that book, there are minor spoilers coming. Fair warning!). Reed and Evie are happily bonded and […]

We are in the home stretch of 2019! It seems like only yesterday I was making my signup posts for this year’s challenges. This quarter is always busy as two of the three months are spent with back to school activities, birthdays, and school fundraisers. Honestly I’m exhausted even thinking about it. I managed to […]

Audio Review: Intuition by Amy A. Bartol

Audio Review: Intuition by Amy A. Bartol

Well, here I am again, having a hard time writing a review for the second book in ‘s series . It isn’t that I didn’t enjoy Intuition. On the contrary, I really did. It’s more that I don’t know how to unpack all my feelings and thoughts on this book because y’all, there are many! […]

Audio Review: Inescapable by Amy A. Bartol

Audio Review: Inescapable by Amy A. Bartol

Sometimes reviews are really hard to write. This is one of those times. I really wanted to like Inescapable by , but I just didn’t. This is one of those times where the saying “It’s me, not you” comes into play. All of my pet peeves, the things that make me cringe, were found within […]

Review: The Fractured Empire by Robin D. Mahle

Review: The Fractured Empire by Robin D. Mahle

This review first appeared on YA Book Central. I don’t know where to start! The Fractured Empire by is the first in series, and the first I’ve read of this author. I’m speechless! The world-building, Addie and Clark, Xavier and Gunther, even Nell and Perry, I loved it all. I cannot wait to read more […]

Audio Review: The Great Pursuit by Wendy Higgins

Audio Review: The Great Pursuit by Wendy Higgins

The Great Pursuit by is everything I could’ve asked for and more for the . It compliments The Great Hunt perfectly, shifting the hunt into a full-blown war. Paxton and Aerity are separated for much of the book, but that doesn’t detract from the love that was born in book one. In fact, I feel […]
