Review – Insanity by Cameron Jace

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction Reviews 0 ★★★★

Title: Insanity Author: Cameron Jace Release Date: December 20, 2013 Pages: 256 Goodreads Rating: 4.13 Stars My Rating: 4/5 stars My Content Rating: PG-13? (Violence and some mature subject matters) Summary from Goodreads: After accidentally killing everyone in her class, Alice Wonder is now a patient in the Radcliffe Lunatic Asylum. No one doubts her insanity. Only a hookah-smoking professor believes otherwise; that he can prove her sanity by decoding Lewis Carroll’s paintings, photographs, and find Wonderland’s real whereabouts. Professor Caterpillar persuades the asylum that Alice can save lives and catch the wonderland monsters now reincarnated in modern day criminals. In order to do so, Alice leads a double life: an Oxford university student by day, a mad girl in an asylum by night. The line between sanity and insanity thins when she meets Jack Diamonds, an arrogant college student who believes that nonsense is an actual science. Insanity is a quirky, somewhat bizarre modern take on Alice… Read more »

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction Reviews 0 ★★★★

Title: You Look Different in Real Life Author: Jennifer Castle Release Date: June 4, 2013 Pages: 355 Goodreads Rating: 3.63 Stars My Rating: 4/5 stars My Content Rating: PG-13 (Somewhat mature situations, homosexuality portrayed-but not in any way explicitly) Summary from Goodreads: For the rest of the world, the movies are entertainment. For Justine, they’re real life. The premise was simple: five kids, just living their lives. There’d be a new movie about them every five years, starting in kindergarten. But no one could have predicted what the cameras would capture. And no one could have predicted that Justine would be the star. Now sixteen, Justine doesn’t feel like a star anymore. In fact, when she hears the crew has gotten the green light to film Five at Sixteen, all she feels is dread. The kids who shared the same table in kindergarten have become teenagers who hardly know one another. And Justine, who was so funny… Read more »

Review – UnSouled by Neal Shusterman

Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction All-Time Favorites, Reviews 0 ★★★★

***This review may contain spoilers for the first two books in the series. You can find my review of Unwind HERE and my review of UnWholly HERE.*** This is one of my absolute favorite series!! If you haven’t read Unwind and UnWholly, you should. It is one of the most unique, thought-provoking dystopians out there. UnSouled picks up where UnWholly left off – Lev has just rescued Connor from the Graveyard and Risa has just escaped from Proactive Citizenry (after appearing on national TV and declaring that she is against unwinding and rewinding). Cam is desperate to find Risa and to somehow win her love – he figures that bringing Proactive Citizenry is the best way to do that. The negatives: A bit of middle book syndrome. While I loved this book, it did seem a bit like it was mainly just setting us up for book #4. Somehow Shusterman… Read more »

Without this ‘breath of life’ she and others like her must help those on the verge of suicide. It’s a job Julia used to enjoy, until the accident that claimed her boyfriend’s life—an accident she knows was her fault. If living with the guilt weren’t enough, she’s now assigned to help a girl dealing with the loss of her mother, something Julia’s not exactly the best role model for. If she can’t figure out a way to help her, Julia’s going to lose her position in the Sary, something she swore to her boyfriend would never happen…. Read more »
