Life was perfect until the incident in the hallway that left Nicole scarred for life. Who would do such a thing to perfect Nicole is a question that Jay is trying to uncover. Why Jay? Jay feels connected to Nicole and at first, this connection is a one-way streak and that is fine with Jay. Jay has...

I’m enough of a cynic these days to greet reference to the theme of inner beauty with an eye roll. In my experience, much of the messaging around the nature of true beauty is either trite or saccharine and comes with generous helpings of condescension or overt moralising. I need another “lesson” on ...

An ARC of this book was provided by the publisher.4.5 stars — between it was really good, and amazing. The book starts out with the school's most beautiful and popular girl, Nicole Castro, splashed with acid. I don't know about you, but this certainly catches my attention. Most beautiful, most popul...

I was quite disappointed with Burning Blue. Having seen such stories in the news, I was really interested in reading about someone who gets acid thrown at their face. Not because I'm a total psycho, but because I wanted to see how it affected the victim's life and thought process. I really wanted to...

"Burning Blue" by Paul Griffin is a mystery, but it's also much more. It's a social commentary on troubled teens. It's a commentary on cliques. It's a window into the lives of troubled teens. It's a fascinating and compelling read.The story is told in first person narrative with the narrator, Jay, t...

Rating: 3.75(?) Stars Where do I start when it comes to Burning Blue? It's different. In a genre of literature so popular, it's hard to find anything similar to it. It's part mystery, part romance, and part something else entirely. I can't quite wrap my head around it to be perfectly honest. On one ...
