Imposter by Jill Hathaway

Title: Imposter Rating:  Genre: YA / Paranormal Release Date: March 26, 2013 Publisher: Balzer+Bray Review: From this morning’s post, you know how much I loved Slide. And while I didn’t want to divulge too much information and ruin the story for you, I’m having a hard time reigning it in now. Normally, I want at least a three-book series. But Hathaway made the two books work and she rocked it. The ending is neat and tidy, though it didn’t seem forced. We get to watch Vee grow as both a teen and a protagonist. And we get a new twist: … Continue reading →

Slide

Title: Slide Rating:  Genre: YA / Paranormal Release Date: March 27, 2012 Publisher: Balzer+Bray Review: Loved loved LOVED this book. Jill Hathaway’s style of writing is captivating and creepy and she does an amazing job of using all five senses to really bring each moment to life. Vee’s “superpower” is to slide into the minds of others, to see the world through their eyes. Slide was like a YA version of CSI for me and the thrill of the hunt, of finding out who the killer actually was, was the exciting part. Though I’m sad to say that I waited … Continue reading →

The End Of Me by Tara Brown

Posted on May 8, 2013 by Jodie

Summary His death was almost the end of me. He was still everywhere, surrounding me. In our children’s eyes, in the smell lingering in our bed, in candy bar wrappers stuffed down the side of the minivan driver door. He was everywhere except where I needed him to be. In my arms, kissing my lips, on the name of the deed to our house. When his death didn’t end me, the proposal from the man who owned every moment of my life, did. My husband carried on in the places he wanted to be but I was gone the moment … Continue reading →

  Title: Goddess “A STARCROSSED Novel” Author: Josephine Angelini Rating: ★★★★★ Genre: Young Adult Publisher: Harper Teen Publication Date: May 28, 2013     I looked forward to this book, and the ending of the series, since the first novel. I fell in love with Josie’s characters, the inventive plot and the beautiful narrative that is embedded within the pages. Lately, 90% of the books I read are on my iPad. These though, this trilogy, I needed in hand. Feeling the pages for some reason adds to the majesty of her writing. I can’t tell you enough how Helen & … Continue reading →

Title: Harper Lee and Peppermint Candy Author: Paula Hennessy Rating: ★★★★★ Genre: Coming of Age Publisher: Self Published Publication Date: July 31, 2012 Review: When I first started reading this book, I thought it was going to be something like The Notebook, save for the title. It opens with an elderly couple doing what they can to upset the neighborhood. I immediately fell in love with them for this reason alone. I love Addie and Henry and wish all of us had grandparents like them. Shortly later comes a call from their daughter, Laura, who focuses on being center of … Continue reading →

Title: Lover Be Mine Author: Nicole Jordan Rating: ★★★★★ Genre: Contemporary Romance Publisher: Ballantine Books Publication Date: May 28, 2013 Review: Remember the love tragedy of Romeo and Juliette? As a reader and reviewer, this was one of my favorite Shakespearean pieces. When I read Nicole Jordan’s synopsis of “Lover Be Mine” I jumped on the chance to read this book. Normally taking my time on a book, I like to read it cover to cover and really digest it over time. Well with one I couldn’t stop! I had it read in about a day and a half, if … Continue reading →

Title: September Girls Rating:  Genre: YA / Paranormal Release Date: May 21, 2013 Publisher: HarperTeen Review: From the blurb on the back of the book, I thought September Girls was going to be a light and fun summer read, but it was anything but. Enter Sam, an emotionally confused teenage boy with a hormone-ridden older brother, a pandering father, and a stressed out mom who leaves her family to go to some mysterious place called “Woman’s Land” (think back to Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique). While Sam bashes women six ways to Sunday, is egged on by his brother and best … Continue reading →

1057735

It’s been two months since Mark Harris released his debut novel, Bewitched, a YA paranormal. Here’s a quick refresher: Is it love or is it witchcraft? He’ll never find out if he kills her first. The first time Darren saw Samantha, she was floating above his high school gymnasium during a basketball game, invisible to everyone but him. Next time he sees her, she’s sitting in front of him in class, wowing his friends and causing unexplainable things to happen that only he seems to notice. But things really get strange (and complicated) when his dying grandfather tells him that … Continue reading →

The Silver Dream

RELEASE DAY! Title: The Silver Dream by Neil Gaiman, Michael Reaves, and Mallory Reaves Rating:  Genre: YA / Sci-Fi Release Date: April 23, 2013 Publisher: HarperTeen Review: First, I have to be honest. I didn’t realize that The Silver Dream was a series novel until I was a few pages in and had no idea what was going on. That being said, I didn’t need to have read the first book to understand it. Michael and Mallory Reaves did a great job of working in details from the first book without giving a play-by-play summary, which was great. The Silver … Continue reading →

Review: Transparent by Natalie Whipple

Posted on April 21, 2013 by Jessica

Title: Transparent Rating: Genre: YA / Paranormal Release Date: May 21, 2013 Publisher: HarperTeen Review: Could you imagine being invisible? So many of us wish we could become invisible but that’s so different from being invisible. Imagine being born invisible and living that way. I can’t even imagine. Except, it’s not that far fetched when you look at the world Fiona lives in. Thanks to a drug that was taken by most people after the Cold War, generations later they are seeing mutations. Some people are being born with blue skin, some have telekinesis, some can fly, some are super … Continue reading →
