Gorgeous and intriguing–not a gap in my love for this book. Bee-utiful I didn’t expect to love Bone Gap. Yeah that seems weird, right? That I’d choose to read a book that I wasn’t very excited about 6 months before releases? There was something about Bone Gap that intrigued me though, and when I was scrolling through Edelweiss, I thought “Why not?” and downloaded it. And then I started reading it and fell in love with a story about faces and family and […]
I’ll meet you there with tears on my face because of this book. Holy shit the tears and the feels in this one. I couldn’t go five pages without having some sort of pang of emotion in my chest from something the characters did or said or felt. I’ll Meet You There is just a bundle of ups and downs tied up in a shiny package with an amazing cover. From the very first page, and I mean the very first page, you’re smacked […]
It’s a sin not to read this book. First of all: HOLY SHIT WHAT THE HELL OHMYGOD WHAT THE CRAP I CAN’T EVEN WITH THIS DEAR SWEET BABY JESUS SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THESE FEELS I AM FEELING THEN WRAP ME IN A BLANKET AND LET ME CRY BECAUSE THIS BOOK IS JUST DEAR SWEET LORD. READ IT JUST READ IT I CAN NOT IF YOU DON’T READ IT. WE WILL NOT BE FRIENDS IF YOU DON’T READ THIS. *Coughs* Now that that’s […]
Survival and heartbreak at it’s best. Survival stories aren’t always my favorite. After a while all the books with characters lost in a forest sort of blurred together, so I was a bit wary of picking up The Distance Between Lost and Found, but the incident that was mentioned in the synopsis intrigued me, I’ll admit. And we all know how fond I am of tough-issue books. So I picked it up. And loved it. This is going to be a short review because […]
A book with it’s own potential energy–and lived up to it. I’ve been dying for what seems like forever for this book. Gritty and heartbreaking contemporaries are my thing, and the more tears I cry the better. (Yeah I’m a bit confused as to how that works too.) But this one just sounded like a me book. It sounded heartbreaking and beautiful and poignant and everything that I loved in my contemporaries–and love it I did. Here’s the thing about this Suicide Partners thing–suicide is […]
HOLY HELL. (Pun always intended) OH. MY. GOD. I’m going to admit, it was the cover of Shutter that drew me in (and Lynne Matson’s recommendation). I’m not a huge paranormal, ghost, or horror fan. (In order: Usually has cliches, usually isn’t unique, and I’m a huge wuss.) But ohmydearsweetgod, Alameda makes me want to run out and grab everything remotely similar to Shutter. First things first, the science. It’s absolutely amazing and it’s not something you’d expect in ghosts, is it? But there are talks about […]
I read this and I’m going to tell you right now–I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Of course, I’ve heard everyone squealing about this one, people trying to get me to read it, saying that as a high fantasy fan I absolutely had to read it. I was skeptical though. We all know the dangers of putting a book on a pedestal before we’ve read it. But damn, this book deserved that pedestal. It was hard getting into it at first and I actually […]
