All Fall Down

All Fall Down

My Thoughts: I was thrilled when I saw the announcement about Embassy Row. A new series from Ally Carter? Heck to the yes!!! I loved Ally’s previous two series and I was so excited that we get more from her. And that was before I even read it! Once I got my hands on a copy… Read more »

Perfect Couple

Perfect Couple

My Thoughts: I liked the first book in The Superlatives, Biggest Flirts, but I loved Perfect Couple! So. Fun. This is the Jennifer Echols I know and love! It was so enjoyable to follow Harper and Brody’s transition from friendship to maybe more. They have a lot of differences and this caused a number of misunderstandings. Why am I such… Read more »

My Thoughts: This is a book I heard about at the NOVL blogger breakfast and was dying to get my hands on it!

The Accidental Highwayman (audiobook)

The Accidental Highwayman (audiobook)

My Thoughts: I picked up an ARC of this book at BEA because it was talked up as similar to Stardust and The Princess Bride. Also, Brandon Sanderson called it a “swashbuckling adventure!” Clearly this book relates to my interests!! Yet it sat on my shelf until I discovered the audiobook was read by Steve West. Steve.

Hidden

Hidden

My Thoughts: This book is the companion to Hush: An Irish Princess’ Tale (a book I read and enjoyed back when it came out in 2007.) I always wondered what happened to Brigid (the younger sister of the heroine in Hush) so I was thrilled when I heard about Hidden. These books are my cup of tea. They’re based… Read more »

We Should Hang Out Sometime

We Should Hang Out Sometime

My Thoughts: This was one of those books that I loaned to a friend immediately after finishing it. Like, I had a whole list of people I wanted to give it to and the first person I saw after finishing got it! It was just so much fun to read! The format of this book… Read more »

This Shattered World

This Shattered World

Book One: These Broken Stars My Thoughts: I was a huge fan of book one in this series These Broken Stars. I listened to it on audiobook and it was perfection. So, I was really excited about starting This Shattered World. However, there were two things that made me hesitate: I kind of wanted to listen to it on audio since I… Read more »
