I hate saying that I didn't finish a book, but the thing is, life is just too short to waste time reading a book you're not enjoying. For some people, this is real easy to do. Then there are others - myself included - who feel as though they have to give the book a… Continue reading Books I Have DNF’d, Vol. I

His Hideous Heart – ARC Review
His Hideous Heart is a compilation of 13 tales by Edgar Allen Poe's tales re-imagined by current authors that takes most of the tales and puts them into a modernized setting for the readers of today's age.

Shattering Glass – Review

The story shows the long build-up to the tragic end, meanwhile you get little glances at what seems to happen to Young, Rob, and Bobster after the ending of the book. The story moved fast and… Continue reading Shattering Glass – Review
Time Bomb – Review
I cannot get over how amazing this book was! It covers some tough, but very real issues including racism, bullying, sexual orientation, perfection, and of course, the act of a school being bombed. Each character has some sort of problem that readers can easily relate to. We've all had to deal with at least one… Continue reading Time Bomb – Review
Two Can Keep a Secret – Review
Two Can Keep a Secret was as good as McManus's first book, One of Us is Lying! Once again she told the story through the perspectives of the main characters, Ellery and Malcolm, and in a suspenseful way that kept me guessing right until the end! Only this time, I didn't figure out who the… Continue reading Two Can Keep a Secret – Review
