This One Summer by Jillian Tamaki and Mariko Tamaki | Book Review

I thought that This One Summer would be a pretty neat female focused comic book perfect for my summer reading. My instinct about this did indeed prove correct and so — the summary combined with a quick flip through to look at the art combined with A TON OF BLURBS from authors I really enjoy lead to me reading This One Summer and I regret NOTHING.

Greenglass House by Kate Milford | Book Review

I love that Kate Milford’s books trust that children will be intelligent. I love that they are complex stories with interesting characters and themes. Greenglass House by Kate Milford is a wintery read with quite the mystery to unravel and a rather fascinating cast of characters. Milo is looking forward to vacation and some time alone […]

Silver Shadows by Richelle Mead | Audiobook Review

Richelle Mead is one of my favorite young adult authors. You know how people can be brand loyal? Well I am series loyal. That’s right.

When an email showed up from the wonderful Penguin Random House Audiobook people offering me a review copy of Silver Shadows, I absolutely POUNCED because, I am loyal to this series and was desperate for the next chapter in Sydney and Adrian’s saga.

How To Meet Boys by Catherine Clark | Book Review

I decided to give How To Meet Boys a shot because it was a wicked short book with a summer-looking cover so I kind of figured it would get me in the mood for summer. Also? I just love light contemporary books. Unfortunately, I never totally gelled with How To Meet Boys.

Kiss Of Broken Glass by Madeleine Kuderick | Book Review

I’m really into books written in free verse. I love that young adult authors are able to play with form, eliminate the BS and get right to the heart of a story with verse. To be honest, when Kiss Of Broken Glass by Madeleine Kuderick crossed my threshold, I was not entirely sure about reading it […]
