***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 […]
There was something completely wonderful and irresistible about The Boys of Summer. It was the type of book that made me remember young love – sometimes fondly and sometimes with a slight cringe. 🙂 The synopsis explains to book pretty well, so I’ll get right to my review. The negatives: Lack of communication. If you read my reviews often, you know that one of my pet peeves is when a couple has problems based solely […]
Forbidden is just what its name implies. The synopsis describes it well. It’s a story of a brother and a sister who have lived through so much together that they feel that they only have each other to turn to – and much to their own horror, they start to turn to each other in a romantic way. You will be shocked and horrified at times throughout this book. You will be torn apart by […]
I finally caught up with the rest of the world and read Divergent!! And I have to say that I completely see what all the hype was about. This book had me hooked from the very beginning and I did not want to put it down! (Luckily, I had book #2 in hand, which I am now reading, so I really didn’t have to). I loved, loved, LOVED this book and can’t wait to read books […]

If you haven’t read The Immortal Rules yet, go get it NOW (and then come back and read this review later—it contains spoilers from the first book in the series). Oh, Julie Kagawa, why do you torture me so? That ending, REALLY? REALLY?! Okay, I think I can calm myself enough to write a review now, but honestly it’s going to be hard. Let me start by saying, I could not wait for this […]
As the summary says, this is a sequel to the 2007 book, Unwind. If you haven’t read Unwind, run now to your nearest bookstore and see what you’ve been missing. It was an amazing book that Neal Shusterman originally planned as a stand-alone. But, here we are, five years later, and he decided that there was more to the story that needed to be told. All I can say is thank you, thank you, […]
