Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles #1) by Marissa Meyer

  Let me first start out by saying you had me at Cinderella…then it was downhill from there.   I had high hope for the Lunar Chronicles series since it was highly recommended to me by several friends, amazon, and Goodreads. After reading this book I found myself wishing I hadn't bothered. Going into this…

The Beauty of Darkness (The Remnant Chronicles #3)

Finally. Lia became the girl I wished she was in the first two book. This book started off really strong. I laughed, I cried and I yelled at the characters. There were time my heart broke and Mary Pearson were put back together…only to break my heart again. I loved the first half of the…

Gemina (The Illuminae Files #2)

Let me just saw wow! Again I would recommend listening to the Audiobook. Its set with a full audio cast and you really feel the characters personalities though the narrations. I loved Illuminate and Gemina even though I am not a big SciFi novel reader. I love how its written and how, as a reader…

The Remnant Chronicles By Mary E. Pearson – Book 1 & 2 Review

What am I reading? I haven’t posted a book review in quite some time. I’ve read a lot but just haven’t had the time to review a book…so here goes... I’m currently reading the Remnant Chronicles books by Mary E. Pearson. I’ve read book 1 & 2 but only just started book 3. Kiss of…

Life of a book worm with kids

So this weekend we went down to Tucson for a toy convention. While Tyler went looking for toys and collectibles he can sell, I went there for books. Its safe today that I am a book worm. I enjoy reading to my kids everything from picture books, to middle school chapter books. I’m often up…

Illuminae by Amie Kaufman

  Holy cow! How have I not read this book. This book is amazing and not usually the type of book I like to read. Don’t get me wrong I’m a Star Wars fan but this is nothing like Star Wars. This is just one of those books you have to pick up and read…

The Cruel Prince

Oh WOW! Why does it have to end and why do I have to wait for the next book? I was warry to start this book since there has been so much hype. Even before this book officially came out I wanted to read it. I loved everything in this book, from “heroes” to the…

My favorite Neil Gaiman quotes

Since I haven't posted any book reviews over the last two weeks...im going to post my favorite quotes from Neil Gaiman who wrote fairy tales for adults, and kids.

The Gravity of Us

The Gravity of Us By Brittany C. Cherry   Holy cow! This book had all the feels. I couldn't put it down and ended up staying up all night to read it. I laughed, i cried,i wanted to yell... The slow build and characterdevelopment great. Toss in kids, sisters and family...and you have a great…

Paper Princess

What did I just read? This books was described as Cruel Intention but I don't think it was as cruel. I enjoyed this book but I don't think it should be a YA book. There is way too much sex, drinking and drugs. This book is basically a bunch of rich spoiled brats messing around…

Bind The Soul

Bind The Soul By Annett Marie My Review This is book two of the Steel and Stone series and I loved it…more then book 1. What is this series and why am I loving it so much? Thank you for Kindle Unlimited for suggesting it! First of all this book is very dark, violent, and disheartening…

Chase the Dark

Chase the Dark By Annett Marie My Review I’m not sure how to feel about this book. I enjoy young adult novels but I usually stay away from heaven/hell books and books that have a lot of mythology. Plus if we are judging a book by it’s cover…let’s be honest this one does not scream…

Coraline – Neil Gaiman

I might be bias since I am a huge Neil Gaiman fan. At one point I wanted to name our 2nd child (Bam) Coraline but this was shot down my Tyler. I enjoy his adult books but I find myself attracted more to his children’s books.  They are a twist on what we think fairy…

Daughter of Smoke & Bone

My Review I wish I could give this story a better review but just I can’t. In all honesty, I wanted to like it, finish it and be proved wrong. It wasn’t an awful book but I felt that this book was two stories in one. Worth reading if you have the time but not…

The Air He Breathes

This book was very emotional. Usually I stay away from books that start out with the loss of soul mates and young children. This book has both and I was in tears throughout the book. I also try to stay away from shorter books since I like to get lost in the pages for days…

A Court of Wings and Ruin

  Like other comments reviews on this book... I agree that this book doesn’t have the same flow as book two. I enjoyed this book but there were times when the flow was a bit choppy. Parts were very hard to read and I had to reread it to really understand what it was saying. I…

A Court of Mist and Fury

Wow. Just wow. This book is much better then the first book in the series. I couldn’t put this book down and read every free moment I had. I laughed, I cried, and I was surrounded by the “darkness” of the world. The Ferya’s character development from mortal to immortal is very complex and I…

A Court of Thorns and Roses

This series is a game changer. While book one is not my favorite in the series after reading book two and three I had to reread this book to better understand thr characters motives.  This was a change of pace but not for Maas. Whereas the Throne Of Glass series is fantasy/romance with the romance…

Ghost

I liked this book but I felt that the ending was a little rushed. The cirst 75% of the book i cpuls t put it down and found myself staying up late to find piy wjat happens. I think this book could have been 50 more pages to draw out the betrayal, feeling and forgiveness.…

Reaper

Not a big fan off this one. I loved Crow and Ghost but this one is a pass for me. Its very slow, a little depressing, and hardly any dialogue. I found that both characters to be moody and depressing. I almost put this on my did not finish list but since I liked the…
