I tried several times to start this review with something clever or profound, something that would let you know I mean Serious Business about this book. But every time I tried, I ended up with something like OMCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC!!!!!!! In case that wasn’t clear enough for you: I...

Loved the worldbuilding, characters, and plot. This is probably my favorite retelling of Cinderella thus far. Cyborg Cinderella? YES.

I really enjoyed this story, from the beautiful writing to the amazing love triangle (a hard sell for me!), to the gorgeous scenery. UNEARTHLY was a solid win for me. I loved all the characters and wanted to know more about their lives. I can't wait for the sequel!...

Rarely do I love the second book more than the first, so this was a wonderful surprise. SHIFT was just as -- more! -- amazing as SHADE. Jeri has a compelling and easy to read writing style. Her characters are beautifully flawed and real. I love this...

LIVING VIOLET has a lot of great action, humor, and potential to be a fun new series. There were several parts that made me giggle out loud.

I battled ninjas to get the ARC of this book! So worth it. This book was heartbreaking from page one. It begins with a simple but evocative description of the Everneath: it is an underworld where immortals Feed on the emotions of despairing humans. ...

I read an ARC. The premise intrigued me first. A girl drowns in a frozen lake. Eleven minutes later, she’s alive again. How? And then she’s drawn to dying people? FASCINATING. Obviously, I was really looking forward to this book, hoping I’d love it....

I received the ARC of this book. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I opened UNDER THE NEVER SKY, just that I knew I wanted it because I kept hearing such fantastic things about it from the people at HarperCollins and anyone else who’d ever...

I admit, with the hype surrounding THE HUNGER GAMES, I was nervous to open the book. How could it possibly live up to all the amazing things people were saying? It did. Collins has a strong, compelling writing style, and this book grabs you...

The final book of THE HUNGER GAMES trilogy is captivating. I dropped everything to read this book as quickly as I could. It also made me cry. While I wish there had been more focus on plot and Katniss MAKING changes -- less Katniss something epic and...

I really wanted to love this book. The premise totally does it for me. Shapeshifting dragons, starcrossed romance, and epic choices. Unfortunately I didn't connect with the main character and wanted more from the plot than I was given. While I felt Jandica's struggles were authentic,...

This was my first Maureen Johnson book, and I wasn't sure what to expect. I loved it. The plot was great. Rory and her roommates were darling. While I never really connected to the romance, I wasn't sure Rory was into it much,...

I heard so many great things about this book I was almost afraid to start it. I'm glad I did, though, because I ended up loving it to pieces. The characters were smart, endearing, and left me suspicious of everyone who does not wear gloves. And everyone...

After reading LAMENT, I was eager to read BALLAD. Though I wasn't sure how I'd feel about James narrating, I ended up really enjoying his perspective. He was wonderfully tragic and compelling, and his motivations were heartbreakingly clear. Oh, and the end. . . . I wish...

LAMENT was a fast, compelling read. I really enjoyed the writing, flawed characters, and the engaging plot, and was thrilled to discover another book in this universe as well. While I had some quibbles with the music portrayed here (no competition I've ever been in allows a change at the...
