Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld

Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld

Afterworlds was probably one of my most anticipated reads for the year. I have read (and loved) Westerfeld’s Leviathon trilogy and his Uglies series was probably one of the first YA series I’ve ever read. So when I found out that Scott Westerfeld had a new book coming out and it’s about a teenage writer, […]

I received a copy of this book from the publisher for review but this does not affect the contents of my review nor my feelings towards the book. To say that Evidence of Things Not Seen is unlike anything I’ve ever read is not an exaggeration. However, it doesn’t mean that I enjoyed it immensely. Evidence of Things […]

Jackaby by William Ritter
