Book Report: June

FullSizeRender-2

It’s been a whirlwind month! I only got a few of books read. . .

The 100 (Kass Morgan): This one was a pretty fast read for me. I liked getting all the different perceptions—which is something you didn’t get with the television show. And I love how it was sooooo much different from the tv show too. I’m excited to pick up the other installments of this series.

This Shattered World (Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner): It took me until about 1/2 – 3/4 way through the book to realize that there were characters from the first book and it was a somewhat continuing storyline. The first book was just a little . . . weird. . . but after reading book two it actually made a little bit more sense. This one took me forever to read—but it was good.

The Heir (Kiera Cass): So this one. I so loved the other three in the series (and I’m currently reading the novellas—loving those too). I didn’t start out loving this book, but it’s Kiera Cass, so by golly I was going to finish it (another one of my “buy whatever she writes” authors). By the time I got to the end I was liking it more. Eadlyn started out such a  . . . spoiled princess, I was so annoyed. She didn’t seem strong like her mother, just kinda, whiney. But Cass does a great job with her character growth!

Siren’s Fury (Mary Weber): I’ll have a full review on this one shortly. But basically. Oh. My. Goodness!!!! Sigh. Mary Weber does it again.

    I loved that whole series by Keira Cass and I knew about The Heir, but not the novellas! Thank you! I also really love the Book Report title of your post. 😉

I was up to my ears with rejections for my YA dyst I was up to my ears with rejections for my YA dystopian and ready to throw in the towel. My best friend suggested I try writing YA rom com (remember that @neysawalker ?) … which was laughable (since I liked killing characters not having the happily ever after.) But what she said stuck and I eventually started thinking about this girl named Murphy who watched her crush slip and fall at the airport leading to him being in coma, her being mistaken for his girlfriend, and then meeting his best friend and actually falling in love … 

Get It Happened at Christmas wherever you purchase your books (or request from the library!!)
