Julie’s Review: This novella was from Warner’s POV entirely, and it was meant to show us that maybe he’s not so evil after all. It gives us a glimpse into his obsession with Juliette, and I think it was meant to redeem his character a little. But I found it kind of dull. So we […]
Julie’s Review: I put off reading Requiem because I was a bit disappointed with Pandemonium and read so many mixed reviews of this final book in the trilogy. Many reviews were critical at the open ending, but I’m happy to say, I found the ending satisfying enough. This review contains spoilers so you’ve been warned. […]
Julie’s Review I really enjoyed Cinder and thought Scarlet was an interesting sequel, but to me it wasn’t as good as Cinder. I liked the Scarlet was a tough redhead who didn’t back down or hide from danger. She’s a really cool character and I really liked her. Scarlet’s Grandmother is missing […]
Julie’s Review: I don’t think I quite understood that Gated was going to be a book about a cult, so when the weird creepy leader guy kept feeding the people in the Community all these lies, I kept wondering when people would catch on. Then I re-read the blurb and realized nope they’re not […]
Julie’s Review Allegiant is definitely stirring up feelings and strong reactions among Divergent series fans. I tried to avoid reading reviews until I read the book but even just scrolling through my social media feeds, I could see something severe was going to happen. I had an idea of what it might […]
Julie’s Review Shatter Me is one of the books I’m kicking myself for waiting this long to read. The story is intriguing and I read it in pretty much one sitting. I just couldn’t stop once I got started. I had no idea what to expect and as I read more of […]
Julie’s Review I haven’t had a chance to read The Goddess Test series, but I met Aimee Carter as part of the Harlequin Teen tour and got to hear about her upcoming book, Pawn. I was really intrigued so I requested the ARC from Netgalley. Pawn is a cool take on a […]

Julie’s Review Otherborn is a unique story. It definitely is not what I expected. The world building is subtle and slow, where we do not learn all the rules right away. The characters are complicated and their “Others” drive the story as much as their main selves, maybe even more so. The story […]
Julie’s Review Book: What was really interesting and great about this story is despite the tragic backdrop, there is hope and true love. This is a society where teen suicide is an epidemic and the government created The Program to “cure” at-risk teens by erasing their memories. Some teens would rather “terminate” […]
