Lola and the boy next door

Book #2 in Anna and the French Kiss Series

By Stephanie Perkins

I'm definitely going to burn in hell.. Oh, that awkward moment when everybody loves a book and you don't understand why... You know that feeling, right? Well, yeah, I'm pretty much living it. I thought I would love it to pieces, too bad it didn't work that way :| It's not that I DIDN'T…

Shatter Me

Book #1 in Shatter Me Series

By Tahereh Mafi

“Killing time isn’t as difficult as it sounds. I can shoot a hundred numbers through the chest and watch them bleed decimal points in the palm of my hand. I can rip the numbers off a clock and watch the hour hands tick tick tick their final tock just before I fall asleep. I can suffocate seconds just by holding my breath. I’ve been murdering minutes for hours and…

Incarnate

Book #1 in Newsoul Series

By Jodi Meadows

As beautiful as the cover! These days I’m a bit out of sync when it comes to the books I read.. I like some books that others don’t, and I don’t like the books the others love, I feel like I’m missing something. This books is one of the books I loved, while some of my book fellows didn’t.. I…

Hallowed

Book #2 in Unearthly Series

By Cynthia Hand

Oh boy, what a ride. Reading this book felt like flying with the wings wide open (not that I know how does that feel, but I can only imagine): I’ve been falling in love again with these characters, I’ve gasped at every surprise, I’ve smiled and I’ve even cried, I’ve felt Clara’s insecurities and frustrations, and her need to be…

Vampire Academy

Book #1 in Vampire Academy Series

By Richelle Mead

If I had to describe this book really shortly I would probably say: vampire teen drama.. a lot of vampire teen drama. Not that this is bad, because I enjoyed enormously the way these teens interacted with each other, the jokes, the fights, the paybacks, and so on. Still, I felt like this was just another usual teen book…

A Clockwork Fairytale

By Helen Scott Taylor

! Minor spoilers ahead ! Today I am just too lousy to avoid them, so please be careful and don’t read if you don’t want to know anything about the story. They are not big, but be aware that they are there. “The heart is heaviest when it’s empty and lightest when it’s full” So.. Once in a while…

Six Impossible Things

By Fiona Wood

Six Impossible facts about me: ✔ not to want to read an Aussie book; ✔ not to love a witty main character; ✔ not to enjoy sarcasm and good humour; ✔ not to love young love stories that make me smile laugh until my cheeks hurt; ✔ not to LOVE this story; ✔ not…

Split

By Swati Avasthi

I finished reading this book a while back but I didn’t really know what to say about it. It feels a bit unfair to sit in my comfortable chair, living my ordinary peaceful life, and give my opinions about such an important subject as family violence. You read in the book about all those horrible scenes and you…

Deadline

Book #2 in Newsflesh Series

By Mira Grant

Damn, this book was insane! I need a whole constellation lined up to rate it properly, because only 5 stars doesn’t seem to make it justice.. I loved every single word of it. “I guess in the end, it doesn’t matter what we wanted. What matters is what we chose to do with the things we had.” Deadline is one…

Hunting Lila

Book #1 in Lila Series

By Sarah Alderson

This book was so damn cute. I know that the author’s intentions were never for me to find this story just ‘cute‘, but without taking in account all the paranormal activity and mystery, the book is more or less about this girl, Lila (one of the most innocent characters – as far back as I can remember reading about), trying…

Feed

Book #1 in Newsflesh Series

By Mira Grant

I am used by now to read books that are great in the beginning, ok by the middle, and surprise the hell out of me all through the ending. Feed is that kind of book and even more. I loved how it started (with such a great adventure), and I loved that feeling I got through the story, like…

You Wish

By Mandy Hubbard

Such a cute little book! Don’t know about you, but I remember being very silly while making a wish for my birthdays. A barbie-alike friend? Totally me! A room full of chocolate and other sweets? Oh, boy.. I might still want to make this wish. Add some ice-cream and some M&Ms and please make it true…

A Match Made in High School

By Kristin Walker

I don’t know about you, but from time to time I like to curl up in my bed, with a cute book in my hands and not to think about anything – just enjoy it’s cuteness. Yesterday was one of those days – I was searching for something light and it was even more that what…

Daughter of Smoke and Bone

Book #1 in Daughter of Smoke & Bone Series

By Laini Taylor

I was hooked from the very first page.. Yes, I can say that again. My mind is full of beautiful stories of angels and demons (is that the right word?), stories of love and hope, stories of mythical creatures in a war as old as the world itself… My mind is screaming: I want more,…

There you’ll find me

By Jenny B. Jones

This book was really hard for me to rate.. I did liked it a lot (I simply LOVED some of the characters in this story), and it could have been a 5 stars book, but all that talk about God and prayers was definitely not for me. Let me get this strait, it’s not that I don’t believe in God…

Betrayed

Book #2 in The Guardian Legacy Series

By Ednah Walters

Awww, that ending ;)) I liked this book, in fact I LOVE this series! Coming back to this story felt like meeting with an old good friend of mine – I remembered some of the things I liked in the first story and I got to know a lot more new interesting things from this one. To me,…

Anna dressed in Blood

Book #1 in Anna Series

By Kendare Blake

My Thoughts: You know how from time to time you read in a book about a male character that you like a lot and you would just love to hear his version of the story? Well there is no more need for that, because in this case you get to hear his story – and you still love…

Shut Out

By Kody Keplinger

You know, this is a strange world we are living in. I always read some reviews here and there (about some books – not only this one) and I see people saying that [this] or [that] are not some books that they would allow their children read, because they include some cuss words or some sex mentioning, and THEN I…

She’s so dead to us

Book #1 in He's So/She's So Series

By Kieran Scott

Usually, wanting to punch all the characters in a book it is not a really good sign.. and I won’t say that this is not the case because in fact it really is. I hate horrible friends (all Ally’s supposed ex best friends), and rich kids with nothing else to do but to bully someone for their…

Blood Song

Book #1 in Lharmell Series

By Rhiannon Hart

Another Aussie book on my shelf full of awesome ;)) To be honest, it’s more like 4.5 because the last part of it was so-and-so, but anyways it’s hard to tell how much I loved this book. It’s great. This is one of those books that you take in your hands and then you can’t put down. I…

Raw Blue

By Kirsty Eagar

Why is it that we can relate so easily to pain, to struggle, to despair instead of happiness and joy? When you say “emotional story” there’s a small possibility for you to be referring to some positive feelings. You always imagine yourself in your bed, with a book in your hand and a lot of tissues around you.. Why…

Spellbound

Book #1 in Spellbound Series

By Cara Lynn Shultz

“I sat there, bored, my head propped up by my hand, my eyes rolling so far back in my head I could practically see my own brain.” The premise for this one was really, really good – I like the idea of soul-mates and I am always looking for a good romance based on this, but I don’t know…

Past Perfect

By Leila Sales

To make it clear, it’s a little bit more than 3.5 stars 🙂 AND I think I’m becoming more and more exigent when it comes to the books I read, and I’m also becoming lazy when it comes to my reviews. This is no exception. So here come some random thoughts: When I think about PAST PERFECT…

Chain Reaction

Book #3 in Perfect Chemistry Series

By Simone Elkeles

Ay carajo! There are only so many times you can enjoy the same old story.. in my opinion it gets down to probably two. I loved the first book because of the characters, and the chemistry and the action and I enjoyed enormously the humor in the second one, but when it comes to this one… I am…

Saving June

By Hannah Harrington

“It’s so stupid because all I wanted was space and now that I have it, there’s this part of me that’s achingly lonely I could die.” So beautiful it hurts ♥ So, why is it so hard to talk about the books we like? Why is it so hard to open my heart to the whole world…

Graffiti Moon

By Cath Crowley

“I was nothing inside but light and color” Can you be in love with a book? I know that I can fall in love with a character, I had a few crushes here and there, but if I were to want to get married with a book, I would propose to this one in a heartbeat. Dear…

The Piper’s Son

By Melina Marchetta

“Maybe she’d always been there. Maybe strangers enter your heart first and then you spent the rest of your life searching for them. “ This was such a beautiful story (as usual). I am a Marchetta fan – she is simply amazing, she knows how to rip your heart out and then to put it back in place.
