Yes, I'm back again with a lovely book that I don't really have the credentials to review. Enjoy!
Look, I know what this blog is called, but for the love of God, DON'T go nibbling your first edition of Frankenstein, please.

Review: Heroes by Robert Cormier
So this one was for my ENGLISH LIT EXAM! You'd think that meant I hated it, but no, so therefore I am reviewing it.
PS, this review will be just edging on the spoilery, especially if you're good at reading between the lines.
Francis Cassavant has just come back home from the War and he has no face. But that's how he wants it to be. The War -- and the events that occurred before he left to fight it -- have taken their toll, and he doesn't want to be recognised. Not before his final mission is complete.

Series review: Weather Wardens by Rachel Caine
I have finally finished reading all nine books of the Weather Wardens series, and I thought I'd tell you what a gem it is just in case you've never found it before.
Because, Darlin', this is the best thing that will cross your TBR shelf.

Review: Sanctum by Sarah Fine
Lela has dreamt of hell for years... and now she's going back there. Willingly. Lela is desperate to save her friend Nadia from her fate, but Malachi, Captain of the Suicide City's Guards, isn't as eager. He may be ruthless and necessarily dangerous, but he doesn't want Lela risking her second life.
Unfortunately, she's the one other human in the city with a mind of their own.

Review: The Evolution of Mara Dyer
Yes, 18 days after its release, book 2 in the Mara Dyer trilogy came in the post! Yes! Then I read it in about six hours. Damn.
Mara's family are even more worried about her mental health, but that's not Mara's biggest problem. Or at least, she doesn't think it is. That's before she's a prisoner in her own home, a home that is no longer safe. At least she still has Noah...

Review: The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer
Yep, I'm back again. And I've read some books. Hurray!
Mara's lost her memory. She's lost her best friend. But has she lost her mind?
When she begs her parents for a move to Florida instead of a move to a psychiatric hospital, she thinks that maybe everything will be alright. Instead, she continues to see her dead friends in the mirror, and now she's seeing the deaths of others -- before they've died. If her sanity wasn't enough to worry about, her new school's player-and-proud, Noah, has started sniffing around her. Can she keep her sanity and her heart together?
