Truth be told, I put Ironskin on my to-read list years ago and then promptly forgot about it. It came back onto my radar again recently and I finally took the time to read it, and I am really glad that I did.
Ironskin is set in historical England, in a world where fairies and dwarves exist and in which The Great War between humans and the fae ended just five years previous …

Truthfully I may have just grown out of this type of book – young adult that is full of angst and drama. While I was and still am a fan of Twilight (and understand it’s weaknesses) this kind of serious teen drama has never been my favorite. However, I’d heard so many amazing things about Katie McGarry that I decided to give Dare You To a try …

Hi, everyone! I have been a busy bee this last month. I’ve done a fair amount of reading and have watched quite a few film as well. I also just got back from Comic-Con in San Diego which was quite a whirlwind. I saw a …
I feel bad giving this one such a low rating but I couldn’t, in good conscience, recommend it to anyone. I was really excited to read this one and was bummed that it fell so far below my expectations. If you’ve never read Stephanie Perkins I would suggest picking up one of her previous novels first. If you read this first, you may be turned off her books forever, which with be a shame. I’ve read some of her earlier works and found them to be funny and charming with endearing characters… Read more »
I picked this book up about a year ago, excited to finally finish this great series, when I found myself losing interest and putting it down. I didn’t think I’d wait this long to come back to it, but I’m glad that I did. I picked up where I left off and was immediately drawn back into this world of magic, gods, and assassins. Mortal Heart gets off to a much slower start than its predecessors.
