The Cardturner
The Cardturner

Review:I love The Cardturner simply because it is like no other YA book out there. It manages to tell a great story, spur thoughts about philosophy and religion, and teach me the basics of bridge. Few storytellers are capable of doing this well, but Louis Sachar certainly is one of those.

Alton is a wonderful character. He is easy-going, self-deprecating, and sarcastic, but his most outstanding characteristic is kindness. He goes along with his money-grubbing mother's demands to spend time with ... Read more

Godsgrave: Book Two of the Nevernight Chronicle

Review:Recommend: Hell Yes!
Review:
What can I say about this insane, bloody, sexual book? It was amazing! I missed Mia so much and I love how in this book she is just as fierce as usual, just as smart, just as bloodthirsty, and just as stabby as before. Seriously, I love this feral b*tch!
I love The direction this book takes Mia in, I love how we learn new things and take unexpected twists, and that ending left me SHOOK! I am beyond ready for Darkdawn so my heart can officially implode!
I ... Read more

The City of Brass
The City of Brass

Review:Over the past year, I have read several impressive debut novels (Katherine Arden and Ruth Emmie Lang specifically come to mind) where authors have built unique and magical worlds in which the reader can lose themselves. S. A. Chakraborty joins this group with a novel that is mesmerizing and steeped in Arabic and Persian folklore. The City of Brass takes its title from a less well-known tale in A Thousand and One Nights/"The Arabian Nights". As in The Arabian Nights, Chakraborty's City of Brass i... Read more

Stormdancer: The Lotus War, Book One
Stormdancer: The Lotus War, Book One

Review:DNF. There was nothing too incredibly wrong with this one, it just wasn't good.

In chapter one, we start with a girl named Yukiko being attacked by an oni (a demon) and the prose is just... bleh. It's not bad, but it's an action scene and it's just boring to read. Then in chapter two, we get a different character talking to a shogun (*cue Japanese speakers heaving a collected sigh at the author's weeaboo Japanese, including having all the characters address each other as "sama," which is ...

Traitor's Blade: The Greatcoats Book 1
Traitor's Blade: The Greatcoats Book 1

Review:Of friendship, and courage, of love and sacrifice (and some damn fine sword play) Falcio, and his friends, Kest and Brasti, are 'Captain Blood' and his crew reborn, the "Three Musketeers" re-envisioned. But they are fresh and new, and bound to each other by bonds that some of us never have the pleasure to know. Read it. You will enjoy every moment of it. Read more

Unbroken (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen Book 4)
Unbroken (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen Book 4)

Review:PLEASE READ THE FIRST 3 BOOKS IN THE SERIES BEFORE READING THIS REVIEW!!!!

Ok - we basically start off where we left our darlings in Forsaken ....

Chad made sure all the bad guys were in jail, and he had this idea of 'The Circle' - a group of twelve people world-wide, who each own their own piece of information about the cylinder.
Should that all word out the way Chad planned it, it would make Amy and everybody connected to him safe.
And it looks like it's working - but ther... Read more

A BRIDGE UNBROKEN (A Miller's Creek Novel Book 5)
A BRIDGE UNBROKEN (A Miller's Creek Novel Book 5)

Review:Cathy as usual gave us a first rate Christian romance suspense novel, this time focusing on forgiveness.
A must read, with this book, is" The Fragragrance of Crushed Violets, forgiving the unforgivable"'
This book is a bible study on forgiveness Read more

The Witch Sea
The Witch Sea

Review:The story itself is the most engaging part of this book- you find yourself questioning the existence of the main character, her backstory, why she's on this island. The romance however... is a little lacking. It's barely there, the development is mainly subtext with some throw away lines and the ending is very... light. It sorta just decides "yep this is it." Overall a nice little read, especially for free. Read more
