September 10, 2014
I think ultimately Woodson’s brown girl dreaming is a great read no matter the format that you decide to experience it – whether through print or audio.

Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld | Book Review
September 9, 2014
Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld was the thickest, heaviest, longest book that I obtained at Book Expo America. It’s also one of the books that I was THE MOST excited about because I got to go to this swank lunch hosted by Simon & Schuster and hear Westerfeld talk about the book.

In The End by Demitria Lunetta | Book Review
September 8, 2014
In The End is the conclusion to Lunetta’s duology and wraps up events from In The After while showcasing more of the world after the floraes have decimated the population. While I was really excited to begin In The End because I love when series and books have actual endings and conclusions, I found myself not quite as engaged by this conclusion.

I am really taken with non-fiction graphic novels. I already legitimately love non-fiction books and love graphic novels, so the combination for Andre The Giant: Life And Legend by Box Brown had me over the moon excited.

Vampire Academy: The Graphic Novel by Richelle Mead | Book Review
September 6, 2014
You know how sometimes you get on this reading roll where you are reading all of the books ever at once and it’s so awesome and you are like hey, I might as well beat my own record this weekend by picking up a super fast graphic novel of a book that I already love? Well, yes that’s exactly why I read Vampire Academy: The Graphic Novel by Richelle Mead adapted by Leigh Dragoon and illustrated by Emma Vieceli. Pretty much this book took me exactly 40 minutes to read and let me tell you straight out that I refuse to spend longer on this review than the book took me to read, it’s just the principle of the matter.
