I can't write books so I review them instead
I read this book in 2011, when it first came out. I still remember the day I came across it – my friends and I were roaming around in Indigo and I happened to find it on one of the shelves. Each of us took a copy of the book and just sat down on…
The first book I ever read by Dean Koontz was Odd Thomas – and I loved it. I remember feeling such strong emotions for the main character, loving the depth of the story, and wanting to read more. But I never got to complete the rest of the series. I was excited to see this…
I am having a very difficult time trying to figure out how to write this review. This novel is definitely unusual in that it is narrated about events that happened in the past. Basically, you are reading someone’s autobiography. Except that this person is fictional. And their adventures are all steeped in fantasy. Which makes…
I was really excited to read this novel because this is the same author that wrote Eleanor and Park, which made me cry my eyes out and was just fantastic. I had really high hopes for this novel, especially because it involved fantasy – and we all know I love fantasy novels! Simon Snow is…
First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2015 has been such a crazy ride for me with a hell of a lot of ups and downs. I don’t know what 2016 has in store but I know that reading more books is definitely one of my top priorities! With that being said, what better way to…
I don’t remember where I saw this book, only that its premise was interesting enough for me to remember it and want to read it. I’ve been waiting for a bunch of books I’ve placed a hold on to become available (and it irks me that the one time I am free to read, I…
I AM SUPER SUPER SUPER EXCITED TO HAVE FINALLY MANAGED TO READ THIS BOOK!! It has been on my Wishlist and on my Holds list for such a long time!!! I got lucky in being able to borrow it just as I left on my Florida trip; it has been the perfect pastime during the…
So I have had quite an adventure with this novel. When I first picked it up, I has no idea that this was by the same person who wrote Cloud Atlas (which I haven’t read or watched but I’ve heard amazing things about it so I probably should do both). I began reading it sometime…
This is another fantasy novel that I have heard amazing things about. I’m glad I’ve gotten this chance to reconnect with this genre; much of my reading consists of psychological thrillers or murder mysteries so it is nice to come back to my favorite childhood genre. In Nieshka’s village, the Dragon, a powerful wizard, comes…
As soon as I finished reading the first book, Seraphina, I immediately put this one on hold. I loved the first novel (which I have already made a review for so check it out if you haven’t already!) and I really wanted to know what would happen next. Seraphina’s secret has always been the one…
