ANGUS, THONGS AND FULL-FRONTAL SNOGGING by Louise Rennison

April 5, 2014

There were a lot of things about this book that I didn’t particularly like but to be fair, I did smirk and laugh a lot. Georgia was hilarious, if a little neurotic. She obsessed about some of the weirdest things and there were only so many times I could gloss over a character flippantly saying…

FAKING FAITH by Josie Bloss

April 4, 2014

Faking Faith dealt with themes that always fascinate me: religion and the Internet. Weaving them together in one book is practically a guarantee that I’ll read it.

THE STATISTICAL PROBABILITY OF LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT by Jennifer E. Smith

March 10, 2014

Alright, this is going to be one of my shortest reviews, I think. Even though there weren’t very many surprises left in the book with the blurb that has been included with the book, I can’t deny the cuteness factor of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight. In fact, this is one of…

THE PARADOX OF VERTICAL FLIGHT by Emil Ostrovski

February 26, 2014

There is something terrifying yet absolutely comforting about coming across a character that seems to be of equal mind to mine. Or maybe it’s the author’s thoughts that might as well have been pulled out of my very own mind. Not that I could have written this tale but the voice! That voice was like…
