First I’d like to thank Netgalley and Abrams Kids for allowing me to read an e-galley of this title. I’m always intrigued with stories that are going to be historical fiction about authors. I don’t know a lot about the Brontes, although I have read both Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre. At first I wasn’t […]
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases that we’re eagerly awaiting. I’ve chosen what I believe is another standalone novel this week. A historical fiction told by three of my favorite YA authors. The blurb doesn’t give away much, here it is from Goodreads: For […]
Now, I tried this last year, and my goal was to do 11-20 books. I ended up doing 11, only 4 of which were ones I’d listed in my original post. But here are the ones I did: Horrorstor by Grady Hendrix Belzhar by Meg Wolitzer Broken Symmetry by Dan Rix Cinder […]

This was the next audiobook I chose to listen to. I had owned a copy of the book, but traded it for something I couldn’t wait for awhile back. So I had to borrow the audiobook from my public library. It was a pretty good story. The narrator did a good job with different voices […]
I’m so excited to join into this challenge that is being hosted by several awesome blogs: Fiktshun, Two Chicks on Books, Tales of a Ravenous Reader, and Magical Urban Fantasy Reads. The final topic has to do with the books we’re most looking forward to being published in 2016. As with the rest of them […]
On Christmas Eve I celebrated with one side of my family: my mom, stepdad, brother, sister-in-law, and 3 year old niece, Hadley. But today, actual Christmas Day, I’ll be celebrating with the other side of my family: my dad, stepmom, and two younger sisters. It’s kind of opposite of how it was growing up. […]

Today’s topic has the requirement that the book must be published in 2015. Here is my list, not really in any particular order again. […]
