Sisters Red by J. Pearce

24 April 2011 Casey 3

Saying that I loved Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce would be like saying I only sometimes like to breathe oxygen. I really, seriously, completely, absolutely loved Sisters Red. Scarlett March lives to hunt the Fenris–the werewolves that took her eye when she was defending her sister Rosie from a brutal […]

First Grave on the Right by D. Jones

22 April 2011 Casey 4

With the birds singing, pollen floating in the air and the sun shining down on us all it really only means one thing: finals are upon me. And that means I should be hitting the books, studying hard and being an overall good student. But I couldn’t resist temptation when […]

Rage by J. M. Kessler

19 April 2011 Casey 0

I don’t know where to start with this review. Rage was such an emotionally intense novel that I have to admit that I did cry through a few scenes. Missy didn’t mean to cut so deep. But after the party where she was humiliated in front of practically everyone in school, who […]

The Gathering by K. Armstrong

18 April 2011 Casey 1

I loved, loved, loved Kelley Armstrong’s Darkest Powers trilogy.  So much so that when my friend told me she had an ARC of The Gathering, the first novel in the new Darkness Rising trilogy which is set in the same world as Darkest Powers, I offered her my soul for […]

Wolfsangel by M. D. Lachlan

25 March 2011 Casey 2

I just want to start off saying that I wanted to like Wolfsangel. I really did. The origin of the werewolves, Vikings, Norse Gods, witches and true love – what’s not to love about all of that? Or so I thought before I read Wolfsangel. The Viking king Authun leads his […]

The Smoke Thief by S. Abé

14 March 2011 Casey 3

I love shape-shifters. I love the idea of a person being able to change from a human into an animal. Werewolves are the most commonly seen shape-shifter, but I’ve also read about tigers, bears, leopards, even a sparrow once. In Shana Abé’s novel The Smoke Thief, I was introduced to […]

The Werewolf Upstairs by A. Chase

28 February 2011 Casey 8

To be completely and brutally honest, the only thing I liked about Ashlyn Chase’s The Werewolf Upstairs was the shade of purple on the cover. There is nothing, and I literally mean nothing, else in that book that I liked. Petty Crime Never Looked So Good… Alpha werewolf Konrad Wolfensen sees it […]

The Iron Daughter by J. Kagawa

27 January 2011 Casey 4

When I first started reading The Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa, I was in one of those rare moods where I didn’t really feel like reading. I had just gotten back from a family vacation, somewhat late at night and I was ready to just fall into my bed and […]

Kiss At Your Own Risk by S. Rowe

26 January 2011 Casey 6

For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been completely stressed over work, school, and a million other miscellaneous dramas that just will not leave me alone. I knew I either needed a month at the beach with several cabana boys waiting on me hand and foot, or a really good […]

The Iron Queen by J. Kagawa

25 January 2011 Casey 4

Each new installment of Julie Kagawa’s Iron Fey series somehow manages to be more amazing than the last and The Iron Queen was epic. My name is Meghan Chase. I thought it was over. That my time with the fey, the impossible choices I had to make, the sacrifices of those […]
