Review:  Need by Joelle Charbonneau

Review: Need by Joelle Charbonneau

First, thanks to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Children’s Book Group and Netgalley for allowing me to read an e-galley of this.  I got to this a little bit after it was published, as you know I’ve been behind on my e-galleys, although I’m hoping to get back ahead this month. I enjoyed this author’s Testing trilogy, […]

The main character is of course Vivian Divine. She is a teen movie star.  Not too long ago her mother was killed after being threatened. […]

Review: Far From You by Tess Sharpe

Thanks to the Disney Summer of Chills for sending me an ARC of this title.  I can say for sure that Disney’s books they’re promoting with this are so far all winners from what I’ve read, and I actually haven’t even read the one I was most excited about! I believe this is the author’s […]
