Liezel’s Thoughts:
The Wedding Game had me literally in tears – not the wrong kind but the very, very good kind. My tears weren’t just brought on by the laughing out loud hilarity but how uplifting it made me feel. It was exactly what I needed this lonely Valentine’s Day. What was so amazing about it was uh…. everything!
The heroine Luna Rossi was terrific. Luna is one of those characters you wish was a real person …
Angie’s Thoughts:
These Violent Roots is an amazing story of what’s right and what’s wrong. Blurring those edges just right to make you question which side you would be on. Which side you’re rooting for. This book has become a conversation that my husband and I will have for many more days to come.
This may be told from Grace’s point of view but it’s so much more than Grace’s story. This book is for all the …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
If you asked what was the best thing that I loved most about this book, I wouldn’t be able to pinpoint one specific element. The first thing that caught my attention was the main character – Yadriel. His strength is unparalleled. I am not talking about physical strength rather the strength in his character, in his personality.
To come out to his family as being trans is a challenge all on its own but to …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
I have yet to read most of Cassandra Clare’s books but after finishing this story, my love for YA fiction is completely renewed. I am now determined to read the entire series from beginning to end.
I do have to admit, it was difficult for me to fully commit to reading this book. Introducing so many different characters is difficult for me but as the story flows I understood why this was necessary. I learned …

Not many books leave me speechless and fulfilled at the same time, but Every Last Secret did. It’s conniving. It pisses you off, but it’s like a train wreck. You can’t look away or, in this case, put your kindle down. When I say it pissed me off, I was extremely upset.
I hate Neena. Hate. Her. I don’t think she has one redeemable quality. Zero. She has a great husband who worships her feet, …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
They said at the end that this story that they wrote was “heavy at times”… for me, that was an understatement. It was heavy from beginning to end. I’m a widow… the main characters of the book are both widows. Need I say more?
What I loved so much about this book was how the writers poured so much emotion into this story. I felt their loss, their despair, the emptiness… it all felt genuine. …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
Say it isn’t so! Did these series have to end? This is definitely one of those series that I wish that could last forever. Why, you might ask? Jude, of course. She is one of those smart, strong-willed, and independent heroines that you could never get enough of.
Time and time again, they try to underestimate her. It was her mortality that made her even better. From the very start, Jude is given tasks to test …
Thoughts:
I am a mood reader – so, I guess I wasn’t in the mood for this book? It was disappointing, really. I know you are going to ask me… Did I even read the first 2 books in the series? Yes, I did, and I immensely enjoyed them, thank you very much.
What was disappointing was I expected so much more. Instead, what I got was a long drawn out whining session from a supporting character. I …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
I didn’t read the synopsis nor check out the reviews before reading “Our Way.” I wanted that element of surprise on my side, and sure enough, it started off as being pleasantly surprised.
Early on, I thought it was terrific witnessing every tiny detail on how Eliza and Nathan’s beautiful friendship unfolded. It definitely was an excellent foundation for a beautiful friendship but what made things complicated was Nathan’s sexuality. The way the author described …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
The Chicagoland Vampires series is definitely one of the best paranormal series to date, BUT … man, after reading the Heirs of Chicagoland, it has fast become my favorite. Come on, what is there not to like when you combine a vampire with that of a shifter’s world?
The characters – Elisa Sullivan and Connor Keene, are what make this series. What is so amazing about Elisa Sullivan is despite how influential her parents are, …
