Review:I like the book and I am very happy that Max and Fang are finally together. I liked the way it was ended...you know that the other are alive and Fang and Dylan have no hard feelings. I love that Max finally tells Fang that she loves him. I love that Fang also admitted his feelings for Max. I am very happy that it ended the way it did. Read more
Review:I love the Max Ride books, but I think they've been going downhill for a while. I wasn't super-excited to read this, but I knew that I would eventually. I also know I'm going to read the next book [whatever it is, and whenever it comes out-if anyone knows, please tell me!] but I wasn't overly impressed with this. When an author flat-out tells you in the summary that one of the major characters that has the love of so many fans is going to die, they're taking a huge risk. Kill someone off, annoy ... Read more
Review:While I can't pretend to like the title of this book, I am definitely still liking the series. As it goes on it only seems to get stranger, more mysterious, and more complicated. As Max struggles to protect her flock from the Erasers (led by resentful child Ari who may or may not be her brother), she also tries to find out about their past and about her supposed destiny (which, if you missed book 1, is to save the world). Though the kids get a peak at what a normal life is like, it seems that th... Read more
Review:This book is great. although I haven't read it yet (I'm waiting for October when I fly to England so I have something to read on the 9 hour flight) I'm a big fan of the series. It came in the mail just a few days after I ordered it, and the shipping wasn't too expensive. The book also came in great condition. Read more
Review:This was not my kind of book. All of the characters were beyond fictional in that they existed in a world that has not yet come and individuals who were have bird and half human just goes beyond my imagination. While I do read a lot of fiction, but believable fiction, science fiction and books like this are just not my cup of tea. Had I known the history behind the character, and the root of the evaluation I had read, I would not have purchased this book. Read more
Review:I actually threw this book and I am greatly sorry for it but this novel got under my skin. So yes, I totally enjoyed this novel and yes, I would highly recommend it, if this is a genre you read. Why? For starters this novel is real, this story is reality as it told the story as if they were your neighbors and this was not the edited version. There was no red bow at the end and there was no happy, sappy feeling in the middle that made me go “ahh!” I was furious and irritated and I wanted to ... Read more
Review:This is a well written story with unique characters and abilities. Fast paced and when you think you figured it out the story takes a different turn.
Clean YA love story, once you start reading you don't want to stop.
Well done Ingrid Seymour ! Read more
Review:Never judge a book by its cover! Lesson learned, as initially, that was my enticement; however, contents do not live up to the expectation. Certainly, the author’s idea was present, on the surface, but failed to deliver.
Asylum outlines a group of teenaged whiz kids partaking in a summer college prep course while being housed in a historical sanitarium. Roux set the stage with creepy off limits areas and inquisitive kids but failed to develop either a plotline or conclusion, ending up wit... Read more
Review:“A List of Cages” is book that bolsters my existing faith in the younger generation. Its message about friendship resonates with me. One of my favorite quotes from the book seems to sum it up: “Hate ricochets, but so does kindness.”
At the heart of Robin Roe’s debut novel lies the relationship of Adam and his younger foster brother Julian. Julian lived in Adam’s home temporarily after the death of Julian’s parents. The two are reunited years later in high school. Despite their differe... Read more
Review:My Sweet Audrina is just as demented as I remember it being. Now in a VC Andrews book, that's not a bad thing. There are varying degrees of Andrews dementedness, and this book is pretty low on the scale, all things considered, especially since there's none of the incest Andrews is so famous for. It's kind of the literary version of a soap opera. Poor Audrina is so screwed up in the head. She doesn't know what day it is, how old she is, or why her parents will never love her as much as they did h... Read more
