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.

ANGELFALL (Penryn & the End of Days #1) by Susan EE

December 16, 2014

ANGELFALL (Penryn & the End of Days #1) by Susan EeTruth be told, I decided to pick up Angelfall because I could get the audiobook for free via Kindle Unlimited. Angelfall wasn’t actually on my TBR list but I was in search for an audiobook and practically all my friends on Goodreads who read the book liked it. Only one person was disappointed, so the odds were in my favour. This also meant that since I hadn’t planned on reading it, I had zero expectations.

GET HAPPY by Mary Amato

November 19, 2014

GET HAPPY by Mary AmatoGet Happy is such a sweet book with the right amount of conflict and tension. I liked Minerva right from the start. She was kinda bratty at first but a very self-aware brat fluent in sarcasm, so reading this book amused me tremendously.

THIS SIDE OF SALVATION by Jeri Smith-Ready

September 25, 2014

THIS SIDE OF SALVATION by Jeri Smith-ReadyThis Side of Salvation had a lot going for it. Sports, school, religion and romance — all things that are important to a sixteen-year-old. David had a bright future ahead of him in baseball. He trained just as hard for it off-season as he did during his seasons. College scouts were on the look-out for him and his high school coach had taught David all he could.

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.
