My Thoughts: It’s no secret that I am a huge fan of Jason Reynolds. That’s basically the only reason I picked this one up. I have nothing against Spider-Man, but I’ve never been that into super hero anything. Honestly, I had never even heard of Miles Morales! I’m so glad Jason wrote this book, which… Read more »

Shadowshaper
My Thoughts: Oh, hey, look! Another book that came out years ago that I just finally got around to reading. I had heard such good things about it (and I really enjoyed hearing the author speak and read from it at a conference!) so I snagged the audiobook with the last of my audible credits. Both the audiobook… Read more »
Alex & Eliza: A Love Story
My Thoughts: Before reading, I heard a lot of mixed thoughts about Alex & Eliza: A Love Story. I was a bit leery going in. I can honestly say that I really enjoyed this one! I listened to over half of it on audiobook and then read the last chunk. (I am so impatient with audiobooks!) First things first,… Read more »
Nemesis
My Thoughts: Nemesis by Brendan Reichs is an action-packed thriller. This is not my normal read! However, the summary captured my attention and I was excited to give it a try. When I had the chance to listen to the audiobook, I took it. I’m glad I decided to mix things up a bit because… Read more »
Anna and the Swallow Man (audiobook)
My Thoughts: I’m still not sure what exactly I think about this book. It was interesting and I was invested in Anna and her plight. I wanted to keep listening to find out more about her and “The Swallow Man.” It was a very different reading experience, to be sure. A few thoughts: Reading this book… Read more »
The Inexplicable Logic of My Life
My Thoughts: I finally read Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe last month. It’s one of the most beautiful and thought-provoking books I’ve ever read. I actually listened to it on audio and it was perfection. (Can Lin-Manuel Miranda narrate ALL the YA audiobooks?!?) When I got the opportunity to listen to the audiobook of The… Read more »
Empress of a Thousand Skies
My Thoughts: A book blurbed by Kiersten White and narrated by Rebecca Soler? Yes, please! Obviously I jumped at the chance to listen to the audiobook of Empress of a Thousand Skies by Rhoda Belleza. Overall, I really enjoyed this one. It’s a promising debut and start to a series. I’m interested in the world… Read more »
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
My Thoughts: This book is incredible. Seriously. So, so, so, so, beautiful. I know, I know… I’m way late to the game. It was a Printz Award Honor book in 2013 and so many people I respect were raving about it. I just never got around to reading it. I’m so glad I finally did!… Read more »
Caraval
My Thoughts: I had so much fun listening to/reading this book! When I heard about it at BEA I knew I needed to read it. Then I actually got to meet Stephanie Garber and I wanted the book even more. I couldn’t get my hands on a copy then but thankfully I was able to… Read more »
Windwitch
My Thoughts: If you check out my review of Truthwitch, the first book in this series, you can see that I am a huge fan. Like, crazy in love with this world and these characters. Obviously Windwitch was one of my most anticipated releases of 2017. It did not disappoint! I tried to savor the reading of it, only listening to… Read more »
