Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review. I really really like dystopian novels. It’s both frightening and exciting to think about what the world would be like if society as we know it collapsed and we were left in an extreme condition and had to survive. Any chance that I get to read a…

Red Rising: Sons of Ares #1 by Pierce Brown
Pierce Brown is the author of the Red Rising series, which consists of Red Rising, Golden Son, Morning Star, and soon, Iron Gold. I actually read the first 3 books of the series and found them to be quite interesting, and I’m looking forward to reading the latest installment when it comes out. I had no idea that the author had decided to venture…
Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman – Arc of a Scythe #2
I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. You might recall that I recently read Scythe by Neal Shusterman. I had loved the premise of the novel and while it did have its flaws, I still enjoyed reading it. When I found out there was a sequel, I couldn’t wait to get my…
Scythe by Neal Shusterman – Arc of a Scythe #1
As soon as I read the premise for this novel, I knew I had to give this book a shot. It was a short blurb but it contained everything it needed to pique my interest. It’s about 400 pages…. and I devoured it in one sitting. Here is my review: Thou shalt kill. In a world where hunger, disease, and…
Last Star Burning by Caitlin Sangster
I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The premise of this novel got to me right away. It’s not that it is so very unusual, but I just felt like there was a lot of potential to the story and I wanted to get the chance to see where the author…
The List by Patricia Forde
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was looking into finding a new YA fiction novel, and having this one being compared to The Giver, which is one of my all-time favorite books, made it a must-read. Here is my review: In the city of Ark, speech is limited to 500…
The Ship by Antonia Honeywell
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. What made me want to request this novel was that another author, M.R. Carey had positive words for it. M.R. Carey wrote the book The Girl With All the Gifts, which I absolutely adored. So if an author who wrote one of my favorite books…
Sunrise by Mike Mullin – Ashfall #3
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. As soon as I finished the second novel in this series, I immediately began reading the final installment in this series. I just wanted to know how everything would end, because this is a really addictive book series. It also helps that all of…
Ashen Winter by Mike Mullin – Ashfall #2
After reading Ashfall, the first book in this unique dystopian series, I found myself eager to discover what would happen next in the lives of Darla and Alex. It took me some time to get to this next book, but once I got into the story, I finished the book in mere hours. So here is my review: 6 months after…
Ashfall by Mike Mullin – Ashfall #1
I received an ARC for the third book in this series, not realizing that it was a part of one. After reading the premise of the third book, I realized that in order to give a fair review, I needed to read the previous 2 books in the series. And that’s exactly what I am doing now: Alex is looking…
