Second Chance Sunday – D..

I could sum up the reason why Divergent is a Second Chance Sunday post in a short sentence of: I ♥ Four!, but then I would look shallow and Divergent would look like nothing more than a book with a painfully adorable boy that is tough and vulnerable all in one. And Divergent is so much more than that. Divergent is an epic story of love, loss and choices. Of finding out who you are and what you can take and what scares you the most. It’s about growing up and living your life for you. It’s about being brave […]

Review: Cinder – Marissa..

I will be the first to admit that I am shocked by how much I enjoyed this book. When I first started reading it I was convinced that I wouldn’t want to continue the series. It was just too out there for me. Cyborgs and androids and moon people; that’s just a tad too much for me to take. But as I started to read more and more and I started to see the similarities of Meyer’s Cinderella and the original fairy tale version, I got swept away in the creativity of it all. Was it predictable? Absolutely. But even […]

The Great Gatsby Read Along

Okay so I admit I wasn’t the most astute reader in high school. I got by but I never read all of the books I was supposed to. I was a Cliff’s Notes queen and proud of it. (Teachers all over cringe!) But I can proudly say I never read The Great Gatsby because it was never required of me to. Now with the movie coming out and my first boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio playing Gatsby himself I have no choice but to finally see what it is about. Because the thing is, every time I ask someone what it is […]

Review: The Elite – Kier..

Happy Release Day for The Elite! If you haven’t read it or The Selection and are fans of The Bachelor/Bachelorette, get on that. I hate that show and loved these two books. Book Crack I tell you! BOOK CRACK! GAH!!!!!!!!!!! That was basically my thought the whole time I was reading The Elite. I mean I was an emotional wreck for two days every time I picked it up and it still hasn’t passed. It had been a long time, Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver and Insurgent by Veronica Roth long, since I felt the kind of stress I did reading […]
