Book Review: When We Collided

Rating: Fire  When We Collided was my second attempt at loving an Emery Lord book after The Start of Me and You. Unfortunately, I wasn't in love with this one like I was in love with The Start of Me and You. In fact, throughout a majority of the book, it didn't seem that special. I didn't feel super connected …

Book Review: The Start of Me and You

Rating: Fire  There was so much I loved about this book. It wasn't earth shattering or mind blowing, but it was funny, sad, romantic, and sweet. Emery Lord is a magnificent writer, and it shines through in this story. Paige's voice is fresh, raw, insecure, and vulnerable. Half the things she said could've come out of my own mouth, …

Book Review: The Book Thief

Rating: Fire  Disclaimer: This review will contain spoilers in order to attempt to do justice to this book. Also, the book spoils itself multiple times.  Okay, so let me just get this out there. This book is the best book I've ever read. I'm really going to try to capture what makes it so amazing but I know …

Book Review: A Study in Charlotte

Rating: Fire  A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallaro is a book that was tentatively on my TBR list. While voting on Goodreads for best Young Adult novel, I saw this one was receiving a lot of votes. Besides it's gorgeous cover, the plot was pretty intriguing, although a little different than my usual genre. This book …

Book Review: Long Way Home

Rating: Fire  The long awaited sorry of Violet and Chevy in the Thunder Road series by Katie McGarry has finally arrived! I don't know about you, but every time Violet and Chevy was mentioned in Thunder Road I got more and more curious about why they loved each other, yet refused to be together. And finally we get …

Book Review: Amy and Roger’s Epic Detour

Rating: Fire  Wow. Morgan Matson seems to have a special talent for making me sob while reading her books. This wasn't even one of her sadder books (Second Chance Summer anyone?) but left me crying all the same. This was a reread, but honestly was just as good as I remembered it being. Amy Curry is …

Book Review: By Your Side

Rating: Fire  Ever since I saw the bio for this book, I've been excited for it.  First of all , it's written by Kasie West, one of my all time favorites. And second of all, it featured a trapped in a library together romance. Swoon. But, as much as it kills me to say this (I currently …

Book Review: Tell Me Three Things

Rating: Fire  Oh. My. God. I think I'm in love. This book blew me away. Julie Buxbaum has such an amazing writing style. Everything she writes is perfectly witty and flows and really sounded like the inside of a teenage girl's mind. AND it's only her first YA book. She completely nailed it! Also, I …

Book Review: Anywhere But Here

Rating: Fire  Anywhere but Here was my first book that I've read by author J.L.Paul, and I have to say I am pleased. Rena's little sister has been missing, and Rena moved in with her aunt because of her wild behavior resulting from her sister's disappearance. While with her aunt, she opens up her heart to …

Book Review: Saint Anything

Rating: Fire  I've always had a love hate relationship with Sarah Dessen, author of Saint Anything. It's never been her writing that's the problem; I think she writes magnificently and the stories always flow well. I used to think the problem was that the plots seem pointless in some stories, where the characters never grow and learn …
