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 …

I am not usually a fan of serialized stories (I prefer the immediate gratification of being able to read the entire book) but I couldn’t resist when I heard that Meljean Brook was writing her next book in a serialized format. I just couldn’t wait until all of the parts were out to dive in and resigned myself to having to wait for each part to come out …
Hello again! I am back with a challenge in partnership with my friend Kimberly from The Windy Pages. We have decided to take the month of September to focus on reading and reviewing those languishing NetGalley ARCs. I get so much guilt whenever I look …
