Pivot Point – Emma at Mi..

Next we have Emma from Miss Print. She selected another favorite of mine, Pivot Point, as her gust post focus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I spent a lot of time asking myself, “What if?” over the last couple of years. When I was fruitlessly job hunting and dealing with a lot of family emergencies, it was very natural to pinpoint exactly where everything went wrong; to wonder what choices might have led to better outcomes.What if I didn’t go to grad school? What if I never worked at that book store? What if I hadn’t quit that job? So many seemingly insignificant […]

Introduction – Parallel ..

About a month ago I finished Loop by Karen Akins (review to come at the end of the month) and I was blown away. If you are my friend on Goodreads and you didn’t have Loop on you TBR list I most likely shoved it down your throat gentle nudged you to read it. I was completely crazy about it and I think a lot of you will be too. Anyway, after I was done I started to think about all of the parallel life books that I love which got me to think of the time travel books that […]

Top Ten Tuesday – Top Te..

So after much back and forth with today’s TTT I decided to go with series that are worth the commitment for people that are scared of series in general. What series are your favorites that you would recommend? Divergent/Delirium/Throne of Glass/The Summer I Turned Pretty/The Selection/Altered/Pivot Point/If I […]

Just Like Fate – Cat Pat..

Before I get to the review for this one I wanted to say something about the rash of parallel life books that seem to be out in the YA world right now. I was talking to Christine of Oh, Chrys! on Twitter a little bit back when she was reading Pivot Point by Kasie West. She was telling me that she wanted more science. Being a big fan of the parallel life books I suggested that she read Parallel by Lauren Miller because that one had more science to it. She said she heard the books were both similar which […]

Review: Pivot Point – Ka..

I can’t even put into words my love of this book. I honestly feel like saying it was amazing is doing a disservice to it. Amazing is so over used, for me anyway, when talking about a book. But I can’t think of anything else to really use to describe Pivot Point. To say I fell in love with is it a huge understatement, and reading this book proved to me that I need to read/find more books like it. Like Parallel by Lauren Miller, I am completely enthralled with the concept West used in this creatively told novel about […]
