Book Review: The Scorch Trials by James Dashner

October 19, 2011 By Jessica Filed Under: Book Review 1 Comment

Spoiler free even if you haven't read book #1, The Maze Runner. If you thought James Dashner couldn't top the action and intensity from The Maze Runner, he does.  You learn so much about the world and the characters but the question that will bug you through the whole thing is WHY? Why is all this ... Read More »

Book Review: The Maze Runner by James Dashner

October 18, 2011 By Jessica Filed Under: Book Review 1 Comment

The Maze Runner is an intense, action-packed thriller but at the same time manages to be so incredibly moving. I'm reading this for the second time. I know what's going to happen, and I still get chills! Though it's pretty intense and sometimes a little dark, it still manages to be funny with the slang that the ... Read More »

Series Theories: The Death Cure

October 4, 2011 By Jessica Filed Under: Series Theories 3 Comments

In celebration of The Death Cure coming out next week, I thought I'd start a new meme in honor of it.  I'm calling it Series Theories because I want you to guess what's going to happen in the last book of a given series.   FYI, this will have spoilers of the first two books. ... Read More »

Book Review: Fateful by Claudia Gray

September 28, 2011 By Jessica Filed Under: Book Review 2 Comments

Fateful is like Titanic the movie meets Twilight. It was one of those ideas that was so unique but at the same time it was like, "Why hasn't someone thought of this before?" A great action packed page-turner that was very entertaining. I kind of saw the ending coming, but it still surprised me enough ... Read More »

Book Review: Supernaturally by Kiersten White

September 22, 2011 By Jessica Filed Under: Book Review 2 Comments

Spoiler free, even if you haven't read Paranormalcy #1. Supernaturally is deeper and darker than Paranormalcy. It's a little more serious and dramatic and wasn't as lighthearted as the first one. It has great action and it kept me guessing through the whole thing. Definitely a page-turner for me.  It also answers a lot of questions ... Read More »

My name is Jessica. I love to read Young Adult and classic literature. I’ve been a book blogger for six years and I haven’t gotten tired of it yet. I’m a very curious reader. Writing about all the questions and thoughts I had while reading a book is the best hobby ever.  Read more….
