All Fall Down by Ally Carter

All Fall Down by Ally Carter

I received this book for review from the publisher, this does not influence my review. Having read the Heist Society series and the beginning of the Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter, I totally thought I knew what I was going into with this one. But I was soooo wrong. This book completely blew me […]

Chopsticks by Jessica Anthony and Rodrigo Corral

Chopsticks by Jessica Anthony and Rodrigo Corral

I borrowed this book from my library, this does not influence my review. I think there’s really only one sentence needed to get you to read this book: Chopsticks is told entirely through pictures. That’s right, the whole story is told through beautiful photography and minimal text. In the true spirit of Chopsticks, a picture says […]

Inked by Eric Smith

Inked by Eric Smith

I received an e-copy of this book from the publisher. This does not influence my review. When I heard about Inked, I was really intrigued. Unfortunately, that intrigue did not keep me reading until the end. Don’t get me wrong, I tried. I really really did. I read until 80% in, and after a week of […]

The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black

The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black

I received a copy of this book at BEA 2014, this does not effect the contents of my review.  As a huge fan of Holly Black, I was super excited to read her new novel. The Darkest Part of the Forest is an interesting and intriguing novel full of awesome world-building. But that’s about all I […]

Blind by Rachel DeWoskin

Blind by Rachel DeWoskin

When I first heard about Blind, I wanted to read it immediately. I haven’t actually read a book with a blind protagonist, and I was looking forward to read in a new perspective. So you don’t understand how happy I am that this one did not disappoint! I really loved it, and I think Blind is just […]
