I got this as an ARC (advanced reading copy) through Amazon vine program. I love fairy tale retellings, and this book was a re-telling of Cinderella. I really loved this book; it was darker than the Disney version but happier and lighter than the Grimm’s version. If you know the …
This is the seventh book in the Merry Gentry series by Laurell Hamilton. It is the only Laurell Hamilton book for a long time that I really actually liked. This book was on par with some of the earlier novels in the series. The plot really progressed and the book …
This is the third book in the “Wicked Lovely” series by Melissa Marr. Where the second book was from Ash’s friend’s point of view, this book goes back to Ash’s perspective. This was an okay book and seemed to be very much a transition book. Almost all of the book …
This is the second book by Melissa Marr. It is in the same world as “Wicked Lovely” and many of the same characters are present. It happens after the events in “Wicked Lovely” but follows the story of Leslie one of Ash’s friends. Leslie is having a rough time; with …
This was the 6th book in the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer. Sounds like this is going to be the last Artemis Fowl book for a while. There is mention of Colfer writing a seventh book in a couple years, but right now no more books after that seventh …

Ah, the next book in the Meredith Gentry series (book #6 if you want to keep track). This is a series that I read because I like reading about the Seelie and Unseelie courts. I am not sure why else I read it. The plot is complex and interwoven and …
I thought this book looked and sounded interesting. I read a lot of paranormal young adult books and was excited to see if this was a good series. I listened to this on audio book. The quality of the audio book was okay. The lady who read it had kind …
This is the second book in the Kitty Norville series by Carrie Vaughn. I thought the first book was okay; this book is a little bit better than okay but I didn’t think it was anything extraordinary. In this book Kitty is called to testify in front of a government …
This was a surprisingly good book. I have never read a book by Chris Wooding before, and although I had to slog through the first chapter, the book really picked up pace from that point on. Poison lives in a swamp with her step-mother, father and baby sister. Poison is …
