I wish I could give this 10 stars. There is so much action it makes your head spin.....in a good way. Jenna truly comes into her own as a kick ass warrior chick. Jake shows his true colors along with his dad, Jeff. All the characters I loved from Glistening Haven were even more fantastic. They fight...

Read more of my reviews at Secrets of Lost Words.Rating: C+Time travel book, you say? I'm there! 15 Minutes is a time-travelling novel that took me by surprise and kept me flipping the pages.Time travelling was a really cool aspect in this novel. It isn't really time travel but more like reliving yo...

Well, this is definitely a mysterious, suspenseful thriller with full on action and adventure; and of course a little romance to boot. I haven’t read a time travel novel since Lauren Kate and it was certainly an interesting read. I really enjoyed the writing style of Ms Cooper and will certainly pic...

They live a lifestyle straight out of Leave it to Beaver.These bubbles, or districts of New Haven, are made to keep the monsters away from the Human populace. The Glistenings are forced to wear bands to contr...
