In my goal to read 5 books this week, which I barely made by the book I finished today, this was one I chose because I figured it would be a quick read. But now I’m behind on blogging! So here goes! As I read through the other reviews of this on Goodreads after I […]
The funny thing about this book is that I had received an ARC several months ago I think, but it got put under some other books, I forgot about it, and actually picked up another ARC at the bookstore the other day and brought it home. It wasn’t until I was up in my office/2nd […]
There were actually some real hazards, or should I say irritations at work last night. But as my blog is about the books that I want to buy after working, I won’t go into those things. Both books I’m going to talk about in this blog are Teen books. Not that I got to spend […]
Waiting on Wednesday is sponspored by Breaking the Spine where we discuss books we are eagerly anticipating. I saw the ad for this in a recent Shelf Awareness newsletter and just keep forgetting or getting too busy to blog about it on Wednesdays. I’ve really enjoyed this series since I read the first one as […]
This book was actually not one I had intended to read. Don’t think it was even on my to read list. It was just a stripped cover book I’d picked up at the store to put on the bookshelf in my classroom for my students to read. Well, last week at school, I didn’t bring […]

This is the 2nd book I’ve read by this author, and I see a bit of a trend. But it’s a good one! One that I think will bring about more books to read in the future. Anyway, our main character is Mason, when he was a young boy, he was mauled by a neighbor’s […]
As you might be able to tell, I’m quite into the dystopian teen novels these days. This was another great one. In this world, there are no wars, no fighting, everyone is peaceful. And the way to this was by curing love. Seriously, everyone gets a surgery when they turn 18 to cure them from […]
This entry will actually be a combination of both last Saturday and last night. I just was too busy to get Saturday night’s done. But both nights I found several books, and some of these I’m listing are ones that I had seen before, but forgot about, so my plan of keeping track this way […]
I’ve walked past these books in the teen section at the bookstore I work at for years. The covers always drew me in, and I did pick them up, and thought they sounded interesting, but just never got around to reading them. I once again have the Nook checked out from work, and so, decided […]
