A BLIND SPOT FOR BOYS by Justina Chen

December 30, 2014

Book cover of A BLIND SPOT FOR BOYS by Justina ChenThis books is hands down my favourite book of 2014! I can say this with conviction to the highest degree because this is my last book review of the year. And I can already tell the two books I am currently reading will not trump A Blind Spot for Boys.

ASHES TO ASHES (Burn for Burn #3) by Jenny Han & Siobhan Vivian

December 22, 2014

ASHES TO ASHES (Burn for Burn #3) by Jenny Han & Siobhan VivianI did not see this coming. I thoroughly enjoyed Burn for Burn and Fire with Fire. Ashes to Ashes, however, left me cold. I was already 84% through the book and yet I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. That thought keeps nagging at me but reading the last few chapters would for me be a waste of time.

THE GEOGRAPHY OF YOU AND ME by Jennifer E. Smith

November 11, 2014

THE GEOGRAPHY OF YOU AND ME by Jennifer E. SmithWhen I finished reading The Geography of You and Me, I wasn’t terribly impacted but I could appreciate the good parts of the book. The thing about life is that a lot of experiences are so outrageous, we’d be in utter disbelief were we to read about them in a book.

LOLA AND THE BOY NEXT DOOR by Stephanie Perkins

September 11, 2014

LOLA AND THE BOY NEXT DOOR (Anna and the French Kiss #2) by Stephanie PerkinsWhat do you make of a book that everyone has already loved to shreds? How do you pick up those pieces and see what others saw before you? Hype has a way of bringing awareness to certain books. At the same time, it can negatively impact one’s enjoyment. Without the hype I wouldn’t have loved Lola and the Boy Next Door. With the hype, I came to feel indifferent.

THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US by Kasie West

September 6, 2014

THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US by Kasie WestIt happened! I like a book precisely because of the romance. Of course there’re other factors involved but The Distance Between Us swept me off my feet. It was sweet, good light-hearted fun reading this book. I found so many reasons to laugh from the beginning right through to the end, which I loved. I like books that make me laugh. They’re such stress-relievers and wonderful distractions.
