I finally got around to reading this!! It’s been so long since I read Divergent, in fact it’s been since April of 2011!! I tried so hard last year to win an ARC, because I’d gotten to read Divergent as an ARC. And then I didn’t get to meet the author at BEA, and I […]
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where we spotlight upcoming releases that we’re eagerly awaiting. This week I’ve chosen the sequel to a book I just reviewed on Monday. I so loved The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa, that I’m very excited to know that the sequel, The Eternity Cure, […]
Okay, once again I have been totally wowed and am asking myself why in the world I waited so long to read a book by this author. Now, I must admit the other series by this author, is about Fey, and I’m not really into the fairies that much. Not that I haven’t read any […]
Another cool ARC I got from BEA last summer, and just hadn’t been able to get to until now. Unfortunately, it’s not autographed. So that means I’ll take it in and put it on my “check out” shelf in my classroom for my students to borrow. This is a book for people who like zombie […]
This is a series I was a bit behind on reading. I didn’t even get started until last summer, when I knew I was going to get the chance to meet the author, Aimee Carter, at BEA. So I started reading them as soon as I got to NYC to visit my sister last year, […]
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 haven’t participated since last October! Wow! But then the last few months have been pretty busy. The book I’ve chosen this week is a sequel to a book that I can’t believe took me […]
I am a huge, huge, HUGE fan of Maggie Stiefvater. And really, I need to just go read all of her books whether they sound like something I’d like right off the bat or not. This book is proof that whatever the synopsis might say, her stories are way more than what they say they […]
So this is the 2nd “book” in the Transcend Time series by Michelle Madow. I wrote in my review of the first one about getting to meet the author last year at BEA, so I won’t bore you about that again. The reason I say book in quotation marks is because it is really just […]
So this year I participated in 2 year-long challenges: The TBR Pile Reading Challenge and the A-Z Book Challenge. Both of which I completed!!! The TBR pile should have been easy, yet as I got new books, those sounded better than the ones I’d already had sitting on my shelves, even though I’d been so […]
During my BEA 2012 experience, I did get to meet the author of this book. I’d heard of her books on several blogs, and knew what she looked like from following her on Twitter and such. And then the first day, for the Blogger’s Day of the convention, she was standing in line behind me […]
