Screwed Review

Screwed Review

     Rose’s Review      I was super excited to begin reading Screwed simply based off its description.  I thought this book might offer something unique or new.  The premise for the story sounded interesting indeed.  In fact, I upgraded this book’s review from one star to two simply because the book seemed to […]

The Adoration of Emma Wylde by Kimberly Russell Guest Post, Review and Giveaway

The Adoration of Emma Wylde by Kimberly Russell Guest Post, Review and Giveaway

     Julie’s Review      Emma Wylde is a spoiled brat of a girl, mainly due to the fact that she’s a pop superstar. Everyone does whatever she says, and she comes across as pretty bitchy most of the time. She goes out and parties too much, gets herself drunk (and she’s underage) and then is surprised […]

Daughter of Smoke and Bone Review

Daughter of Smoke and Bone Review

     Rose’s Review        I really really liked this story. I usually prefer stories that are contemporary, set in present day and real time. I am honestly not one for high fantasy. However, this book was amazing. I loved how unique it felt. I have truly never read another book like it. The book is […]

Pushing the Limits Review

     Rose’s Review        This was my second time listening to this book. (I have never actually read this book, like in print. The first time, I rated it a 4. This time I struggled between 4 and 5 stars, deciding that a solid 4.5 stars is more the case and rounded up.) Told from […]

The Edge of Never Review

The Edge of Never Review

     Rose’s Review  I decided to read this book when I discovered it was newly available on Audible.com and it had been recommended by so many book blogs as having the same feeling as that of The Sea of Tranquility and Hopeless. Perhaps, due to that rating, I did not like this book as […]

Fever Review

Fever Review

       Rose’s Review         I had never actually read Maya Banks until after I met her at Katy Budget Books last month and got my books signed. (Interesting side note here: my doberman puppie, Maddox, has not chewed up ANYTHING in my house, yet for some reason, he thought Fever a particularly tasty […]

This Girl Review

This Girl Review

     Rose’s Review        I enjoyed both Slammed and Point of Retreat and basically anything else written my Colleen Hoover, so naturally I was super excited when I received this ARC through netgalley. This Girl is essentially a retelling of my favorite parts of Slammed, but from Will’s POV and with more details. I enjoyed […]
