Funny, cute and surprising character development.

So, the whole only one person can see the ghost book has been done, but I enjoyed the plot then and I enjoyed it this go round as well. This one does have the unique twist that the ghost is a rich girl. Who stole. A...

Powerful and emotional but fun summer read about loss, love, and the hope of healing.

This is a great summer read, but with an emotional punch. Nantucket Blue has a complex plot, and I love how everything works together to make Cricket, the main character, stronger and realize more about herself. I really connected with...

Great premise, executed well, with surprising emotional depth and well developed characters that are

I love the premise of this and it drew me in quickly. I liked the simplistic but fun set-up. There were of course complexities to the plot, and I was on the edge of my seat wondering how things would play out. Fiona...

Amazing series, author and can't recommend it enough.

As usual, Jennifer does NOT disappoint! It was so hard in the beginning when Alex was connect to Seth, and calling him "my Seth." She was so obviously not herself and that is not what I want for any person. I think that...

Darkly captivating an emotional romance woven with hope and character growth.

Oh my goodness. This was dark, amazing, emotional and hot. Katie has written another contemporary masterpiece and as an added bonus we get to see a peek at Noah and echo. Though you didn't have to read pushing the limits to understand and love dare you to. They would just...

Devoured it!

I liked Wren as a main character. She was different, but a heroine who could kick butt and take names. The premise is fantastic and got my attention from the first time I saw it. I think that the world building was balanced. I got a...

Loved it even more than the 1st. Perfection. Lots of character growth, swoon moments and heartache.

So, I couldn't be happy until I bought and started this book. I was going to wait to get it from the library, so I tried to read 3 other books, and wasn't feeling it. So I put myself out of my misery and bought it. ...

Good premise but didn't blow me away.

What I liked: Ren's strength: She knew how to work hard, she made courageous moves. Her loyalty to her "sister" Aven. Ren met her when they were in the orphanage, she was Ren's first friend, and Ren worked so hard to find her after they were seperated....

Fast paced and couldn't look way even though I was confused. A lot.

I went into book knowing not a whole lot except Mara was a good character and this book was highly recommended and well reviewed. I came away from this book knowing being in Mara's head is an adventure I will...

Action packed story with a slow building but breath taking romance.

I don't know why I waited so long to read this... (I know Rivie, give it to me) I really liked Aria's spirit. There was just something about her that I appreciated and connected with. I knew that bad things were going to happen to her, but...

Sweet and fast paced story from two characters that I rooted for.

I really enjoyed this first book, the pacing was great, and there was character growth as well as a romance that I cheered for. The Rules sucked me in right away. Even though I was a bit confused on the...

Emotional second book where America's choices only get harder.

I flew through this one and enjoyed getting to see another side of all of the characters. This one did a much better job at elaborating on the other girls, and I really enjoyed that. I know it was impossible in the first because getting to...

Nice beginning to a trilogy that was packed with action and surprises.

I liked Gray, he is impulsive, but caring. Though I didn't agree with every decision or action, I still enjoyed him as a narrator. It was different being in a boy's head that thought like him. There was also a lot of emotion right at the beginning...

Awesome sequel, enjoyed Juliette even more in this one!

When the synopsis says that she has to make some hard choices, it is not exaggerating I thought it was just being fancy, but she is faced with a twist that I didn't see coming. And it makes her have to make choices about love...

Great novella that gives great insight into Warner.

So I should have started this one before I read Unravel Me, but I only realized that it was addition that gave important insight when I was 2/3 of the way through Unravel Me. But I guess better late than never. So I stopped Unravel...
