First thanks to Egmont USA Publishing and Edelweiss for allowing me to read an e-galley of this book. I have to say though that this was the 2nd book in a row that just didn’t really catch and grab me as I read it. The idea behind it was intriguing, so I finished it because […]
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases that we’re eagerly awaiting. The book I’ve chosen this week is one that I’m going to be waiting on quite awhile as it is not supposed to be published until March of 2015. I had hoped to get […]

This is one of the ARCs I had to get at BEA. And boy am I glad that I got it!! Let me say when I picked it up to finally read it this week at first I wasn’t sure because it was about middle school kids and I had mistakenly assumed it was about […]
Thanks to Edelweiss and St. Martin’s Griffin for allowing me to read an e-galley of this title. I am a huge fan of dystopian and this sounded right up my alley. Overall I felt it was a good story, while I was left with something feeling missing, but not in a way that I won’t […]
