Julie’s Review Good news, we broke out of the 3 star category! While the first 2 books were a little bit of a struggle for me to get through, this one got my attention right away and kept it the entire book. A great third book. At first I wasn’t sure […]
Description: Set in contemporary New York City, a seemingly ordinary teenager, Clary Fray (Lily Collins), discovers she is the descendant of a line of Shadowhunters, a secret cadre of young half-angel warriors locked in an ancient battle to protect our world from demons. After the disappearance of her mother (Lena Headey), Clary must join forces […]
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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
Rose’s Review I had never heard of Cora Carmack until meeting her in Dallas at the taping for ABC Nightline. Other avid book readers gathered at A Real Book Store recognized her immediately. I admit I felt left out. During the taping, everyone was asked to read a favorite section of a favorite […]
Julie’s Review This was a short read so it will be a short review. Honestly, this was a bit of a waste of time. There were some funny moments in Magnus Bane’s misadventures in Peru, but overall this was just silly and didn’t even answer the question! I really liked Magnus Bane in […]
