Julie’s Review: Reading Enders was a struggle for me. I started out reading the e-galley, but put it down around 20% or so. Then I just didn’t pick it back up for quite a few months. Eventually I decided I have other books with higher priority to read with my limited sit down and read […]
Julie’s Review: Mila 2.0 is really about what it means to be human. Mila is a teenage girl living with her Mom in a small town and is enjoying talking to this great guy that she’s really into, and things seem normal. Well, until she has an accident and finds out that she doesn’t bleed, […]
Julie’s Review: I can’t even begin to gush about how much I enjoy Tahereh Mafi’s writing style in this series. I loved Shatter Me, and really feel the same way about Unravel Me. Like in the first book, the writing was excellent. There are so many good quotables and really unique imagery in this book. […]

Julie’s Review: I was approached to review the audio book of Wings of Shadow specifically, and I agreed because the blurb sounded interesting, and I do love audio books. I don’t think I’ve heard any other books narrated by Meghan Lewis but I really enjoyed her narration of Wings of Shadow. Her accents were great, and I […]
Julie’s Review: The Coldest Girl in Coldtown was such a cool book (ok that was a bad pun). But really, I found it fun. I thought the way people get turned into vampires was pretty unique, since it deviated from the norm of either simply being bitten, or drinking vampire blood. In this book, someone […]
Julie’s Review: I read several interviews where Ms. Jordan says outright that Uninvited is not a dystopia. I have to respectfully disagree. It is absolutely one. Just look at the definition: dys·to·pi·a n. 1. An imaginary place or state in which the condition of life is extremely bad, as from deprivation, oppression, or terror. 2. A work […]
Julie’s Review: *Sigh* I really liked The Headhunter’s Race when I first started reading it. See? Look at this tweet below. Started reading The Headhunters Race eARC on my lunch break. I’m already a fan. — Julie S. (@juliecookies) February 3, 2014 I thought the premise was interesting, and the set up was good. The […]
Julie’s Review: Astral Tide is such an imaginative and unique story. The ethereal mood throughout is refreshing, since I don’t typically read many books involving another plane of existence. The Astral here is like a character rather than a place, which is pretty interesting. I liked the special abilities that the characters that have an […]
Julie’s Review: In Short: The Diviners was on my TBR for a while now and I bought the ebook when it was a daily deal. I finally got around to reading it when Rose’s book club picked it for February, but since I’m moving I knew I wouldn’t have time to actually read the book, […]
