Waiting on Wednesday #10
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. So, I'm kind of out on a limb for this WoW and, boy, do I know it! I don't know, YA horror is not really my thing (big understatement), but I recently read [...]
Movie Review: The Maze Runner

And, like all book-to-movie adaptations, the book is obviously better than the movie. We're covering the bases early [...]

I don't need more reasons to further delve [...]

Top Ten Tuesday: Top Eight Underrated Books in the YA Fiction Genre
Top Ten Tuesday is a lovely original feature/weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. I bet everyone is doing YA Fiction, but I couldn't think of anything else. After all, this blog mainly deals with YA so why stray too far from home? Hansel and Gretel strayed too far from home and look [...]
