I was really excited to read Undeadly because it sounded like some kind of awesome Harry Potter zombie/reaping book! Totally cool, right? As promised, Undeadly had some awesome story elements, but the book itself wasn’t as great as I was hoping. My first issue with […]

Beta by Rachel Cohn
Beta was so much darker than I anticipated! If you’re looking for a light, interesting read about clones, look somewhere else. Beta has suicide, heartbreak, murder, drugs, rape, and slavery! WOW! Totally not what I expected, but I ended up loving it. This book is […]

Katya’s World by Jonathan L. Howard
Katya’s World is like no other book I’ve read! Maybe it’s because I don’t read a lot of hardcore science fiction, or maybe it is because this book is just so unique, but either way, this story and world was completely new to me. This […]
Ashen Winter by Mike Mullin
Right off the bat, it’s obvious that I’m not rating Ashen Winter as high as Ashfall. Ashen Winter was a fascinating story that once again really dives into disaster and humanity (or lack thereof), but at the end of the day, I don’t feel like […]
