Mortal Danger by Ann Aguirre

Mortal Danger by Ann Aguirre

I want to come clean about something before I start my Mortal Danger gushing review. You see I’m very lucky to receive an email from MacMillan every so often with their upcoming releases, and have free reign to pick which ARC’s I’d like to receive and review. It’s basically a book nerds wet dream to […]

100 Sideways Miles by Andrew Smith

100 Sideways Miles by Andrew Smith

I am constantly searching for the perfect unique contemporary and I’m happy to report that 100 Sideways Miles has made the list. 100 Sideways Miles is about a teen named Finn Easton and his particular knack for measuring time in distance. I sort of understand how he does it but I am no fan of math so […]

The Jewel by Amy Ewing

The Jewel by Amy Ewing

This was one of my most anticipated books from BEA and I am so sad about how it turned out. I remember seeing the cover for The Jewel for the 1st time on Tea Time and getting really excited and now, I’m just disappointed. The basic premise of this book is pretty simple. People of nobility […]

On the Fence by Kasie West

On the Fence by Kasie West

If you know me well, then you’d know that while I love my fair share of awesome action-packed stories, I also love cute summer reads. And On the Fence is probably one of the cutest books I’ve read this summer. Having grown up with three brothers and only her dad, she doesn’t really know anything about […]

Messenger of Fear by Michael Grant

Messenger of Fear by Michael Grant

I think it’s best to start this review with a confession. You see, even though Michael Grant is a crazy popular author and it seems like the entire YA readers community LOVES him this is my very first Grant book. I know I know! I’ve put the entire Gone series on my TBR just to […]

In the Shadows by Kiersten White and Jim Di Bartolo

In the Shadows by Kiersten White and Jim Di Bartolo

I have no words to even begin describing the awesomeness that is In the Shadows. I don’t think I can even properly describe the plot without saying too much. I want everyone to go into this completely blind, like I did, because it’s much more enjoyable that way. But alas, I should probably tell you something […]

The Young World by Chris Weitz

The Young World by Chris Weitz

I read in phases. Currently, I’m on what I call a contemporary craze but I was once upon a time, obsessed with post-apocalypse. So when I heard about The Young World, my old need to read these types of books came flourishing back. My mind: OMFG NO ADULTS?! DISEASE?! OMFG, I NEED THIS BOOK LIKE NNNNNOOOOOOOWWWW! Sufficient […]
