I think...

I think I am going to start reading Delirium by Lauren Oliver today again. I really enjoyed it the first time I read it and I am feeling a little down in the dumps and a good book can help to make things a little bit better.

"Empire of Storms" by Sarah J Mass Review

        Rating: ***** Wow. Yep did not see that ending coming at all! I cried or was very near crying many times through this book. Not always from sadness. The ending was from sadness...  And agony. Fantastic writing! I pretty much got everything I wanted from this book which is great! That last line! Okay I officially need book 6 like yesterday! (even though it's the end! ) Update Sept 8th, 2016 : Okay now that I have gotten some sleep and time to gather my thoughts on with the SPOILERY thoughts! <spoiler> Okay so I was really excited to see Elide's journey to Terrasen but as bad as it sounds when stuff with her and Lorcan came up in the story part of me really didn't care like in Queen of Shadow with Chaol and Nesryn... I am guilty of skim reading most of their scenes in about the middle of the book. I'm just not really sold on that pairing. But whatever it wasn't horrible. So I was so excited to see Aelin finally make it to Terrasen and clai...

Review of "Rosie Dunne"/ "Love, Rosie"/ "Where Rainbows End"

Wow, this was much different than I expected. I based my expectation purely on seeing the trailer for Love, Rosie. But I thoroughly enjoyed it. I really enjoyed reading this book because of it's unique letters format. I have not read anything like this since the Confessions of Georgia Nicholson  series and it was in journal/ diary enteries. And it was interesting to read a book that takes place in such a large timeline.

The ending was good too, even though it was a little abrupt. I do wish the reader could know more about Alex and Rosie's future together... but my guess is that they stayed and li...

Review of "The Queen of the Tearling" by Erika Johansen

Based on several reviews I had read about this book I was not expecting to like it very much. But it was quite the opposite. I truly enjoyed how Ms. Johnansen wrote about the importance of books and literacy in society. As well as her mentions of popular books from our era. The use of magic was not overdone which kept the story from being too far-fetched. There were parts of this book that disturbed me a bit. I have never been a big fan of the use of profanity in literacy. But that was one of the few things I disliked about this book. It was a breath of fresh air to read about a female protagonist who had a realistic self-consciousness about herself and was not perfect and beautiful in appearance as a lot of these literary heroines seem to be in books of this same genre. There are no perfect characters in this story as well which I feel also supports the realism of this story.  ----Spoilers Ahead--- - -- --- ---- ----- ------ ------- -------- ------...
