Percy Jackson is back, bitches. In the spin-off-sequel Son Of Neptune second in the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan Percy wakes up much like Jason with zero memories of his past except for Annabeth. Anyways, he tries to fight monsters on waking up with Rip Tide but they won’t die, FML! You see some stupid a-hole, […]
Akata Witch by Nnedi Okorafor Book Review
November 21, 2011
Friends, Akata Witch by Nnnedi Okorafor is such a unique fantasy experience, much different from the quest oriented, Western based fantasy that I normally read. AND I LOVED IT. Sunny, main character, is kind of a weirdo, or rather she’s considered a weirdo in her Nigerian village.  You see, she lived in America for the first part […]

I liked Matched by Ally Condie well enough to accept Crossed, the second in Condie’s trilogy when it was offered to me for review via audiobook.

Worth The Emotional Bombs It Will Drop On Your Soul
November 16, 2011
Friends, you need to know that A Monster Calls is not an easy, happy go lucky book. It is deep. It is painful. It will make you feel unless you have a heart of stone, in which case, why are you even reading my reviews considering how much I write about my emotional reactions. I absolutely think A Monster Calls is worth the emotional bombs it will drop on your soul.
