The Haunted

The Haunted by Danielle Vega

by Leave a Comment

I’ve never read any of Danielle Vega’s books, but I’ve heard she writes some pretty scary stuff. I decided to give her newest book a shot to see if it scared me. Unfortunately (Or should I say fortunately?), the book was not very scary for me. Hendricks and her family- mom, dad, and baby brother- just moved to their very small town. Her parents flip old houses for a living, sell them, then move on to the next. Something about Steele House makes them decide […]

Hot Dog Girl

Hot Dog Girl by Jennifer Dugan

by Leave a Comment

It’s the summer before senior year, and Elouise/Lou is determined to make it the best, most epic summer yet. This plan centers on winning over long-time crush Nick. They work together at Magic Castle Playland, a small local amusement park. Nick is one of the diving pirates, but Lou has spent her two years serving as a hot dog outside the food stands. Unfortunately, Nick has a girlfriend, the pretty, nice, literally-plays-Cinderella Jessa. How is a hot dog supposed to compete with that? Other than […]

“I don’t know if we’re in a love story or a story about love…”

What If It's Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera

by Leave a Comment

“I believe in love at first sight. Fate, the universe, all of it. But not how you’re thinking. I don’t mean it in the our souls were split and you’re my other half forever and ever sort of way. I just think you’re meant to meet some people. I think the universe nudges them into your path.” Arthur is staying in New York for the summer while interning at his mom’s law office. While out getting coffee one day, he runs into the boy of […]

With the Fire on High

With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo

by Leave a Comment

Emoni has always had a passion for cooking. Ever since she was young, she had an instinct for adding extra flair to her recipes, almost never making the same dish the same way twice. Some even claimed that her cooking is magic, even brings back forgotten memories. Emoni isn’t sure about that, she just likes to cook. During Emoni’s senior year, her school finally introduces the perfect elective: culinary arts. This class will focus on Spanish cuisine, and there will be a special trip to […]

The Princess and the Fangirl

The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston

by Leave a Comment

I very much enjoyed Poston’s Geekerella, so I was excited to get back into that world with The Princess and the Fangirl. It’s set in the same universe, but focuses on different characters at the same convention in a time far, far away…or maybe like a year or so. At the latest ExcelsiCon, the new Starfield movie was a smashing success. Now, they are gearing up for a sequel. The only person not excited is leading lady Jessica Stone. Her Amara was killed off in […]

99 Percent Mine

99 Percent Mine by Sally Thorne

by Leave a Comment

I was pleasantly surprised to find myself enjoying Sally Thorne’s The Hating Game. It had that sexy back and forth, love-hate thing going. It wasn’t perfect, but it was a lot of fun, plus nicely steamy and romantic. So it comes as little surprise that I would be excited for Thorne’s newest book, 99 Percent Mine. The sad reality is that I’m not that into this book. Our heroine is Darcy Bennett, bartender and former award-winning photographer. Darcy is one of those rebellious young ladies […]
