Spirit and Dust

Spirit and Dust

My Thoughts: This book is a companion to Texas Gothic (which I LOVED!) I was excited to get back into the world of the Goodnight family.  Daisy, the main character in Spirit and Dust is cousins Amy from Texas Gothic. Daisy’s Goodnight gift is a bit different… she can speak to the dead. Add that to her “job” working with the… Read more »

Dreamland

Dreamland

For the Summer of Sarah Dessen I’m posting reviews of all her books that I haven’t reviewed yet. This week’s book is Dreamland. You can see when each book is featured in this graphic from Penguin Teen:   My Thoughts: It’s been said that Sarah’s newest book Saint Anything is her “darkest” book to date. I disagree. I think Dreamland… Read more »

Fox Forever

Fox Forever

My Thoughts: Reading this book was such a bittersweet experience! I read The Adoration of Jenna Fox way back in 2009. I had really just gotten into reading again and it just wowed me. Now, years later I finally found out how it all ends. So it was bittersweet twice over! (My experience and the story itself!)… Read more »

The Family Romanov

The Family Romanov

My Thoughts: The Family Romanov: Murder, Rebellion, and the Fall of Imperial Russia was one of the books that made me decide to read a nonfiction book each month. I’d been meaning to read it but just never seemed to get around to it. If I put it on my monthly TBR I knew I’d be much… Read more »

A Darkness Strange and Lovely

A Darkness Strange and Lovely

My Thoughts: Why, oh why do I wait to read the rest of the books in a series I like?!?! It’s like a sickness! The whole time I was reading A Darkness Strange and Lovely I was thinking about how I could have known this story far earlier! Ah well, at least it meant I had Strange and… Read more »

That Summer

That Summer

  So,  Penguin Teen is doing this super awesome summer of Sarah Dessen! I re-read all her books prior to reading Saint Anything (and then I re-read that one within a month of reading it for the first time!) I won’t be reading along this summer but I think it’s an excellent idea! I’ll be… Read more »

The Distance Between Us

The Distance Between Us

My Thoughts: I am, yet again, kicking myself for not reading books by an author sooner! So many of my friends have been raving about Kasie West’s books but I just never got around to reading them. After reading The Distance Between Us this will change!! So much love. Where to even start? Contemporary! Friendships! Family! Romance! Misunderstandings! All… Read more »

The Orphan Queen

The Orphan Queen

My Thoughts: This has been such a great year for reading fantasy! I’ve finished some series that I’ve loved and found a few new ones that have me eagerly awaiting book two. The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows is one of the latter! I downloaded a sneak peak of this book. I didn’t realize just how invested I was until… Read more »

Since You’ve Been Gone

Since You’ve Been Gone

My Thoughts: Why did I wait so long to read a Morgan Matson book?!?!? I am so in love! I guess it’s kind of a good thing since I now have two more already on deck 🙂 Where do I even start? There were so many things I enjoyed! First, there is the best friend… Read more »

Obsidian

Obsidian

My Thoughts: Honestly, I wasn’t too sure about this one. I mean, aliens? Not really my thing. But then I read Jennifer Armentrout’s NA books and loved the way she tells a story. I needed a “fix” of her writing and I happened to have the e-book of Obsidian. Once I started, I couldn’t put it down!!… Read more »
