• Insurgent Review

  Full disclosure, as with Divergent, I saw the movie of this book but since it’s been forever, I only remember three scenes from it so this felt almost brand-new. Just hours since the ending of Divergent, Roth quickly picks up the momentum in Divergent with Tris and her friends (and some enemies) heading to the…

• The Winter Soldier: Cold Front Review

  Unlike Loki and Gamora, I have very little knowledge of Bucky Barnes outside of fans think he’s hot and he’s in a psuedo mentor-romantic relationship with Captain America much like Batman and Robin. Oh and he’ been brainwashed a lot. The final bit is very relevant to the plot, and wow, it made such an…

• Mulan: Before the Sword Review

  Mulan has been a symbol of female empowerment since her movie came out, but she has been an inspiration long before the 1998 movie since her legend has been around for centuries. Lin inspired by both her legend and the movie crafts her own tale of Mulan figuring out her destiny before she saves China…

• Twilight/Life and Death Review

  As readers of my blog have noticed, I’ve been on a YA dystopian binge but I figured I should also pay tribute to one of the books that forever changed the landscape of the YA and vampire genres- Twilight. Yep, I never read the books though with its renowned popularity, I have a good grasp…

• Ranking The Clandestine Affairs

  Just like Tessa Dare’s Girl Meet Duke series, this trilogy was all 5 stars for me so the ranking was very hard to do. Just minor things edged one out of the number two spot since they were all so good. 2. Her Night with the Duke: During one stormy night at the Black Swan…

• Mockingjay Review

  The final book in the gut-punching trilogy asks us readers to choose which cute boy is cuter and. . . okay I’m joking. While I can see parts where Collins pushed back against the urges behind the scenes for more love triangle, Katniss and is undoubtedly the star of this book as she tackles the…

• Divergent Review

  We get to the last of my dystopian trilogy trifecta. Well technically, it could be called a quartet as it has the Four prequel but it’s a prequel so it doesn’t really count. Anyway, much like The Hunger Games, I never read the books. I saw the first two movies and I’m aware of the…
