Julie’s Review I really enjoyed Shattered Souls – it is right up my alley and is absolutely what I like to read. I thought the idea of a YA ghost whisperer story was really cool. I enjoyed the mysterious beginning where Lenzi didn’t really know what was going on and why […]
Feature for Aug 30, 2013 – Question! If you could only have ONE – one book – for the rest of your life. Don’t cheat…what would it be? Rose: Hmmm well, let’s see. I would want to choose a really long book since it is the ONLY book I can have. It would be between a book […]
Julie’s Review I felt that Inferno was quite a bit different than the earlier books written by Dan Brown. It has a more real life element where the previous Robert Langdon books dealt more with religious theories and beliefs. The pacing was different as well since the book used a lot of flashbacks […]
The Highlight Tour with Prism Book Tours & Samantha’s Summer Tour. Welcome to Chapter Break’s stop on the Shudder tour finale of Samantha Durante’s summer-long review tour. My stop is showcasing these fun quotes from this summer Shudder summer-long tour about VILLAINS!!! Vile Villainy Interview w/ Samantha at Joanna In the Sky With Books: Actually, almost EVERY character in […]
Rose’s Review I definitely enjoyed Faking It more than the first book. I found the love story more interesting and somewhat darker than Losing It. I liked Max and Cade… “I’ll take my chances against your fickle heart if it means it’s mine.” I like that the traditional role of bad boy with tatts […]

Book Browse has this cute quiz called: What’s your reading personality? So we thought we’d take it and share our results 🙂 Julie: Your Reading Personality: Exacting Reader! The expression ‘so many books, so little time!’ sums up your life. You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you’d like […]
Julie’s Review I listened to the audio version of Calling Me Home and absolutely loved it. This was a book club selection, and definitely a book outside my comfort zone. I tend to shy away from race books because they are often preachy and can be depressing. While the story in this […]
The Beat the Heat Read-a-thon ran from July 29th through August 18th (it was originally August 11th but they extended it!). It was organized by Auntie Spinelli Reads or Phantasmic Reads. Here is our wrap-up post to show how we did. Did we read all the books we planned to read? Did we read more? Did we end […]
