"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: It goes on." - Robert FrostBeautifully written. I can't exactly place my feelings on this because of the mix of emotions. I believe that life is about taking chances and I'm glad that's what Parker realized in the end. Julianna's journ...
This story is about a girl reading about another girl's story.And you are reading a review about a story about a girl reading about another girl's story.Immediately after reading Golden my impulse was to give it a 4.

Golden left me a little torn. On one hand, I really enjoyed it but on the other, it left me feeling unmoved. The prose was beautiful. The introspectiveness of it pulled me right in when I opened the books and read the first few pages. Eventually, the prose wasn’t enough anymore. Not when the plot b...
60 percent into this book I knew how it was going to end.Though it didn't go exactly how I thought, I got the main things right.

I almost missed out on Jessi Kirby’s books from a lack of interest, and I am so glad I decided to pick up her first two books anyway.
