I wanted to love this novel, especially given how much I enjoyed the sneak peek chapters. Given that I went in with fevered visions of futuristic dystopian awesomeness, it's not surprising my overall reaction ended up being "decent, but not nearly as spectacular as I'd hoped." Not to say there's any...
Argh!! So much potential that it saddens me that I didn't like it more then I did. It had some really great parts but that was all just muddled because there was a whole chunk of book that nothing happened. There was nothing that furthered the plot, no kind of mystery, no real drama. It was just the...
Review: To start with, this isn’t a dystopian like how I thought it would be. Well, it kind of is. Coffee and chocolate are banned outright, and other things that we take for granted, like water and paper, are restricted. From that, you’d expect a hugely totalitarian society-right? At least I did.

*My Rating* 3.0*Genre* Young Adult Romance*Review*Imagine a world where chocolate is considered to be a contraband item and caffeine is illegal yet alcohol is freely consumed by nearly everyone. It’s a world where water is so scarce, that it is being rationed out to the general public and you need r...

When I was asked to review the audio for All These Things I’ve Done, I was ecstatic. I love pretty much any storyline set in the future with a dystopian theme. But this story was not at all what I was expecting.Sure, it’s set in the future, and the government is controlling things, as one would ex...
