3.5 starsThis book came to my attention after El over at Just Love Romance reviewed it back in July. El raved over this but what captured me the most was when she mentioned that the main character, Nancy, was an asexual. So a couple of days ago, I decided to give it a goWell, I liked it; I didn't lo...
For me, this book was a three and a half star read. I picked it up because I was attracted to the name. Unfortunately, it didn't quite deliver.What I loved:- The premise - The ideas- The characters- The inclusiveness (mainly Nancy and Kade)What I didn't like- The plotNo matter how pretty a package y...
"We went down the mysterious stairs that couldn't possibly be there, of course. Who wouldn't go down an impossible staircase in the bottom of a trunk? We were twelve. We were curious, and angry with our parents, and angry with each other." We all know about portal magic. We've grown up reading bo...
Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children is a special place, one of several worldwide, for children and teens who briefly traveled to magical other worlds. Their parents could no longer understand them or deal with them. Maybe they'd never been able to. They thought their children had been kidnapped...
I'm glad is was a short book. That is not a great way to feel after finishing a book is it ?

I fell asleep too many times while reading this ...

(I mean, if Feed had not been followed by its sequels, that would be my favorite.) But I wasn’t–expecting? hoping for?–the ending that we got, and I think the slight...
4 starsThis was a weird little paranormal/murder mystery. Nancy has just arrived at a private school for troubled runaways - it's really a school for kids who have been kicked out of various fairylands and are having trouble coping with their return to their old lives. They all long to find anothe...
Every Heart a Doorway is simply beautiful. The premise is a boarding school for teenagers who have gone to other worlds, fantasy worlds, and then returned, and are left longing to go back to the place they now feel is home. They need a school (run by someone who had the same experience) because pe...
Do you ever have the feeling you don't really belong here? Ask yourself: "Is this it?". Do you feel like there's some adventurous side of you which can't come out due to the restrictions of the world we live in?If so, imagine that one day, instead of opening the door to your good ol' (ever so boring...
