I’ve wanted to read this book since  first saw it on the shelf in the bookstore where I work.  Then a while back it was on sale for like $1.99 for the e-book, and so I bought it.  Plus, I got an ARC of the 3rd book, Emerald Green, so now I had a reason […]

First, let me thank both Edelweiss and especially St. Martin’s Griffin for allowing me to read an e-galley of this book.  Now, can I start telling you how much I loved this book?!  I have to say what an awesome way to end a series!  There was action, there was still romance, there were twists […]

My Review: Another book I checked out from the library, although it was kind of a fiasco getting it actually in my hands!  I got an email saying it had arrived.  I went to the library the next day, and it wasn’t there.  So, the librarian said one of two things happened, either someone else […]

Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor My rating: 5 of 5 stars I was lucky enough to get a copy of this at BEA this year. When I first saw the cover, I did a bad thing, I judged it. And not that the cover isn’t really neat looking, it just didn’t look […]

As always I’d like to thank the people who made it possible for me to read an advanced copy of this.  I was fortunate enough to walk into work at Barnes and Noble and see this sitting on the break room table.  As I had fallen in love with the Trylle series by Amanda Hocking, […]

Torn by Amanda Hocking My rating: 4 of 5 stars I actually read this as an ebook just like the first one in the series, Switched. When I enjoyed the first one as much as I did, I went ahead and purchased the 2nd and 3rd as ebooks, I believe for only about $2.99 at […]

Switched by Amanda Hocking My rating: 4 of 5 stars I downloaded this book to my Nook because it was only 99 cents. At first I was only reading it on my iPhone Nook app, and let me tell you, reading a book on an iPhone is not much fun. It is like you turn […]
