The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune

I had been seeing this book all over the place and it's for a good reason. The story inside is just as beautiful as the cover. Linus leads a very solitary life. His life is pretty much the same thing over and over and nothing changes. He likes it that way. One day, this all …

The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller

I am really loving stand alone books right now! This book was so good! I went into this book blind but I did know there were a lot of people talking about it. I am doing a readathon with a Facebook group and they loved this book. I started this book hoping that I could …

The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White

I chose this for my Transfiguration O.W.L's prompt! I also chose it because I'm trying to read more of my OwlCrate books! I was really hoping to like this more than I did. I just felt a bit .. unsatisfied when I was finished with it. I loved the concept a lot but the execution …

The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams

If you are looking for a good romance, this is for you! I have been participating in the O.W.L's readathon and for some reason decided to read all the huge books. My husband even asked if I was crazy. I am making my way through but desperately needed a break from fantasy reads! This is …

Nightshade by Andrea Cremer

I finally read this!! It's been on my book shelf since 2012!! It's one of those that I constantly went back and forth on getting rid of or keeping. I have the whole series, so I always just held onto it. Plus, I really like the cover! This is about Calla, a werewolf, who is …

The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

Ohh.. this book! I will start off by saying that you have to be in the right mood/mind set to read this. Also, it helps if you can really focus and concentrate. A lot of people either hate or love this one. I am somewhere in the middle. The writing was actually really beautiful and …

The Toll by Neal Shusterman

I did it! I finally finished this book. This one was a lot harder to get through than the previous two. I really felt like this story just went a completely different direction than I was expecting. It wasn't necessarily a bad read but not great. The writing and world building in this book is …

Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman

I don't think I was expecting this book to go where it did. I'm not saying that in a bad way but I was surprised at the direction. I'm not quite sure how I feel about what has happened! I can see why this series is recommended so much! This book felt a bit slower …

Scythe by Neal Shusterman

I have finally read this book!! I was waiting for the series to be completely out before starting. Although, now I'm nervous about the ending. Anyways, lets get to this book! Wow! What a great book! If you are in a funk, pick this one up. The world building is so amazing. I mean, it's …
