In Waypoint, twin brothers trek across the country to fix the country's power outage. In Anna and the Apocalypse, high-schoolers battle zombies on Christmas. In The Rains, all the adults get infected by a zombie-like virus, and a boy tries to save his brother who will be turning eighteen soon. Enjoy my mini reviews for these three post-apocalypse...
It's been five years since the events of the last book. Unrest between the Daeva and shafit in the hidden djinn city of Daevabad is growing while Ghassan continues to rule with an iron fist, squashing anyone who opposes him into submission, including Nahri and, when he's forced into coming back, Ali. But outside the city, dangerous plans are brewing as well, plans that could drastically change...
This turned out to be a surprising reading year. Many of the books I was most anticipating ended up being mediocre, and many of my favorites were books I almost didn't read and thought wouldn't be quite right for me. Another strange thing is that I didn't do a lot of series binges. I also read far less vampire books than usual. So yeah, a bit of a strange reading year for me, but I still...
It's December 31st! One year is ending, and a new one is beginning. Call me what you will (some would go with pessimist, I say realist), but I'm not feeling very positive about it, not when all my problems from this year are just carrying over into the new one. But I know no one wants to end their year by listening to me complain, so luckily I do have some good things to share about the past four...
I've already shared with you all my favorite covers and favorite characters from books I read in 2018, so that means... it's finally time to share my favorite books! I don't know why I keep calling these posts "Top Ten" when I never manage to stop at just ten. My blog is just full of lies. It sounds good as a post title though, you know? Anyway, I'm excited, as I always am for this post, because...
It's time to talk about characters! Everyone loves a good character, right? I know I do. One of the difficulties with this post in particular is that there are multiple different ways to "like" a character. Sometimes I like a character for who they are, and I probably want to be best friends with them. Sometimes I think a character is complex and interesting, but I don't necessarily like them as...
At the beginning of the year I set myself some bookish and blog-related goals, or rather guidelines since I wasn't being strict, and now that the year is ending, it's time to see how I did! Considering I made these and then immediately forgot about them, it'll be as much a surprise for me as it is for you all...
As a gargoyle, Jet's life used to consist of sitting on a building every day, but now he has Matthew and Samantha making things much more interesting. When Samantha insists they have to stop Krampus from ruining Christmas, Jet is ready to help, but first they'll have to convince Tarrick to help...
I feel like this is my most anticipated post every year. I mean, I don't know what you all anticipate, but *I* anticipate it. Book covers are my jam. Little mini works of art! So I love looking back through what I've read and finding the most gorgeous ones. I don't know if book covers have been getting prettier, or if I've just been more drawn to pretty ones since I started blogging, but wow, I...
The apocalypse has been unleashed, and vampires everywhere are going mad with hunger. Although now separated, both Edie and Jude are on their way to Austin with the same goal: to kill the one responsible and end his reign of terror, even though one knows...
