Honestly I was hoping for better. The blurb grabbed my attention but then I just couldn't get into it. This is my first by Justina Chen and just because I didn't like this one doesn't mean I won't give her another try.
Initial thoughts: This book has a cover that is such a deterrent for me, the saving grace was the author's name. I had previously read a book from Justina Chen that I loved, so I pushed aside all misgivings. I am so glad I did because I loved A Blind Spot for Boys even more! It's not some sappy roma...
This is one emotional hike for me. DISCLAIMER #1: My dad was diagnosed with MILD GLAUCOMA just a month ago. He was told that he's lucky that the doctors diagnosed it early because it could lead to permanent blindness. My dad's a pastry chef. He doesn't only need his hands, he needs his eyes, so you ...
review Characters: Terra, jacob, Terra's parents, Jacob's mom. These are the characters you question is they are real or if this is fiction. Terra is unlike any YA heroin in any book this reviewer has come across. She is a control freak, a trouble magnet and for once not a drop dead beautiful on the...
Not really my type of book. I thought the psychicness would come more into play, but it was basically just a side note. I think my problem was I didn't realize this was a book about basically nothing. Just a girl dealing with life, and her parents divorce and finding herself, which is fine, just not...
I figure that I must be among the last few people to read this book. It's been on my wish-list for awhile but for some reason I just never got around to it, despite seeing many great reviews out there. Perhaps I felt like it wasn't going to live up to them or be the kind of story I really enjoyed re...
There is nothing that upsets me more than a broken family. Coming from one myself, I found this book to be both hopeful and enlightening. The plot of the book faces a broken down family. Reb is torn between her parents and their divorce. She thought she knew her father and the image she has of him i...
This book was a little hard to get into at first. But I liked the idea of it, so I decided to stick around. And after the first 50 pages or so, it got better. Some parts of it were beautifully written, some parts felt like they were there just so that the author could make the story last longer. And...
Terra tries to maintain a perfect life and she would have one except she is hiding something. She is hiding her face. On her face, she has flawlessly applied a fine layer of makeup that is hiding her port-wine birthmark. She has perfected this technique and would never leave home without it. She i...
