Julie’s Review: I feel like I’ve been in a reading rut lately because a lot of the books I’ve read have just been a little meh. How do you know when you’re in a reading rut? Well, when you finally read a book that is excellent, you feel it! You just have this exciting tingly […]
Julie’s Review: My Creatures book club read Lord of Thunder for our January meeting, and had the author, Linda Mooney, attend in person! She’s local(ish) and we’ve had her attend a meeting in the past and had a really fun time. This time was no different. We had a blast chatting with her about this […]
Julie’s Review: The Blue Between is a pretty quick YA sci-fi that is pretty entertaining but left me wanting a bit more. I liked the premise – girl gets hit by lightning and all of a sudden starts disappearing and appearing in strange places, getting accused of being a runaway. Under hypnosis she realizes she’s […]
Julie’s Review I kind of have mixed feelings about Untraceable. It started out very slow for me, in fact I read it for a book club and didn’t finish. This doesn’t usually happen. I thought all the detail about survival tips at the beginning was more info dump than world building. Ok, […]
Purchase links: Amazon | B&N Julie’s Review I’ve only read the first full book in the As The World Dies trilogy, so not all the characters in the Untold Tales were familiar to me. However, I still enjoyed the side stories. It was very cool to get a better perspective into […]
Julie’s Review Overall, I give The Midnight Spell a good solid 3 stars. I liked The Midnight Spell even though I have some complaints. The parts that I did enjoy were quite awesome, and the parts I wasn’t as happy about did not detract from the story too much. The Midnight Spell […]
Julie’s Review Overall I think I give this book a 2.5 star rating. It did not start out good for me, but the book did end on a good note. I picked this up as a freebie a while back and read it now for a book club meeting. Honestly, if it […]
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 […]
Julie’s Review At first I thought Linked was a dystopian world where the government performed secret horrible experiments on twins. Then I thought it was a sci-fi space opera adventure story. It is really kind of both. This story is fast-paced and exciting, with twists and turns and danger. When Lissa and her twin, […]
Julie’s Review Wow. SimonTeen did a one day free read promo on pulseit.com today so I had to read this book today. I started at lunch and was worried I wouldn’t get done by the end of the day and would end up having to buy it to find out how it ends (which […]
