THE NIGHT CIRCUS by Erin Morgenstern

December 18, 2014

THE NIGHT CIRCUS by Erin MorgensternLet’s get the cliché part of this book review out of the way first: The Night Circus was absolutely enchanting! It was magical and beautifully written. This audiobooks was a treat for the senses, especially because Jim Dale narrated it and he sounds like the perfect traditional storyteller.

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.

FREE TO FALL by Lauren Miller

December 13, 2014

FREE TO FALL by Lauren MillerAs I sit down here to review Free to Fall, my mind is till completely lost in Angelfall by Susan Ee, which I finished listening to only a while ago. No matter, I took down notes as I read Free to Fall, and sometimes impressions after a few weeks give a much better idea of the impact of a book.

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.

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.

· Categories: Fiction Keywords: american authors, family, family myth, family problems, friendship, high school, lyrics, music, realistic fiction, romance, single parenthood, solid platonic friendship
