Este tiene que ser la mejor novela juvenil que he leido hasta la fecha. Fue una historia tan interesante e encantadora que me enamore de ella. Esta es la manera que esta clase de libros deben de ser escritos. Una gran historia, aterradora y un lindo romance. Me alegra por fin haber conocido una pr...

I’ve been underwhelmed by a lot of so-called historical books lately, but I’ve also found some unexpected gems–The Vespertine by Saundra Mitchell and Haunting Violet. I loved this book. Its heroine, Violet, is not a forward-thinking lady escaping the shackles of society. She’s a fake trying to make ...

I've had great luck with my Halloween picks this year. This book was a great little find. I haven't read this author's Drake Chronicles series yet, but I'm now interested in checking it out after reading Haunting Violet.Normally I don't like to write summaries for book reviews, but since the actual ...
