4 stars For a mash up, this one was actually pretty good.I’ll admit it has been a few years since I read Wuthering Heights and there are some parts that I only vaguely remember, but Gray does a decent job of seamlessly inserting vampires into the original text. At times I found myself questioning what…

5 stars I received a copy of this book from LibraryThing in exchange for an honest review. A powerful and inspiring collection of stories from survivors of rape and sexual assault. This is truly a remarkable work. Ream provides the stories of many survivors spanning over race, sex, age, and profession. Each story provides details…

4 stars Very similar to Jurassic Park in its set up. Obviously there’s dinosaurs, but also strangley the formula of a bunch a men on an island along with one female scientist and two children, who experience one dino mishap after another. Despite the fact that this is basically a rehash of the first book,…

5 stars This book is hilarious. The literature used is fairly diverse (Gilgamesh all the way to The Hunger Games).

3 stars I received this book from BookLikes in exchange for an honest review.This is definitely an interesting idea for a story. I liked the shifting perspectives and changing focus on different characters. But the plot came off as a bit dull and the writing was very technical. The descriptions felt repetitive and overly specific.I’m…

5 stars I received a copy of this book through Goodreads in exchange for an honest review. I absolutely love books with interrelated characters and this is by far one of the best I have read. The characters and their stories are diverse and interesting. This is an amazing work detailing human relationships of all…

3 stars Basically this is a nice easy read with a whole lot of problematic characters. I liked the premise of the book. The whole Seven Stones idea was pretty cool and I enjoyed the concept of the Unmentionables. But the characters were ridiculous. Lizzy, as far as I can tell, is pretty much a…
