END OF DAYS (Penryn and the End of Days #3) by Susan Ee

June 2, 2015

Audiobook cover of END OF DAYS (Penryn and the End of Days #3) by Susan EeReading End of Days made me wish Angelfall was a standalone. The series of Penryn and the End of Days held so much promise, especially with Angelfall, which I found very original with its unconventional portrayal of angels.

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.

MATCHED (Matched #1) by Ally Condie

November 24, 2014

MATCHED (Matched #1) by Ally CondieMatched was a fairly mellow book for a dystopian fiction. In fact, it started off with a markedly utopia society in which peace reigned. Cassia looked forward to her Matching ceremony, where she would meet her Match. She fully trusted the Society to determine her ideal partner whom she would marry four years later, when they were 21 years old.

MORE THAN THIS by Patrick Ness

March 19, 2014

Book cover of MORE THAN THIS by Patrick NessWhen I was done reading, I felt gobsmacked. More Than This is utterly confusing. Not because it lacks clarity of thought or writing. No. Rather, because existentialist questions somehow can never be answered to the full satisfaction of anyone. Every answer inevitably leads to new questions.

ALTERED by Gennifer Albin

February 15, 2014

I had such a tough time finishing this book. So many times did I consider just not finishing it but I told myself I should give it another chance. I know I had trouble with Crewel but this whole weaving business that supposedly kept order in Arras was too original for me not to continue…
