My Thoughts: My first thought when I finished this was "that was entertaining". It's always good when a book makes me feel this way.There is a character for almost everyone. I found I liked the three girls together as a group rather than any individual one. They all had their strengths and their wea...

The Friday SocietyThis is a fun read of the fluff variety. If you were looking for deep thoughts and philosophy, you wouldn’t pick up The Friday Society, but if you are looking for an adorable trio of independent (even though all three of them are in some kind of servant position to a male adult, no...

I want to mentally hi-five Adrienne Kress, because this book, apart from some pacing issues, is exactly the kind of book I anticipate from a YA read. It was so much fun and I'll admit I had a grin on my face in many places within the story, and was surprisingly gut-punched by the way things turned ...

Before I begin this review, I’d like to note the extreme distinctions between Outcast and Angelfall. If you think you will like this book because you liked Angelfall, you might be a little off base. Outcastis entirely its own story. It is not set in a post-apocalyptic setting, and is more like urban...

The blurb for Outcast is quite enticing and I immediately wanted to read it. The only problem is they gave away too much information in it, it left little suspense for the beginning of the book. However, you are quickly drawn into the story as Riley is an entertaining, quirky main character. I loved...

4.5 starsA completely new look at angels. I loved the plot: it was fast paced and didn't slow down once. Riley and Gabe are both a lot of fun. She's got a great inner monologue and the sarcasm is some of the best. This is a girl I want to hang out with, but we'd probably get arrested. Gabe is deligh...
