Wolfsbane by Andrea Cremer

Wolfsbane by Andrea Cremer

Wolfsbane by Andrea Cremer My rating: 4 of 5 stars It’s been so long since I read Nightshade, since I was lucky enough to get it read as an ARC. So it did take me a bit to get back into the story and remember where we had left off, but once I did, I […]

Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris

Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris

I’m not going to do a big long blog on this one. As it is number what in the series? Not sure. But I will say that I did really enjoy it. It took only a few pages to get sucked right back into the world of Sookie Stackhouse and company. And yes, I love […]

Nightshade by Andrea Cremer

This was another of the Penguin YA advanced readers books I got back in August. Wasn’t sure if I’d like it. The cover is a little freaky for my taste. I know, I know, don’t judge a book by its cover, but be honest, it’s hard not to just a little. Anyway, this is another […]

Gateway 6:  Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

Gateway 6: Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

I’d seen this book at the store. No idea what it was about, but the cover is very interesting. Even with such an interesting cover, and really a title that doesn’t give much clear idea to what it is about, I can’t believe I never picked it up to read what it would be about. […]
