Irresponsible Reader

Dad once told me that even a hopeless situation doesn't always stop him. Not because he believes there'll be a miracle, but because giving up feels too final. And pretending is a form of grieving, too. This is a YA graphic novel from DC—I'm not sure that the medium needs YA-focused work, but hey,...

This review can also be found at Carole's Random Life in Books.I hate the fact that we live in a world where school shootings happen. I have mixed feelings about the fact that a book like this even exists because I don't want to use a tragedy as entertainment. I have had a review copy of this book f...

I felt for Kyra as I read this novel. Kyra was shunned from her community because she was different. When she was finally diagnosed, the community still rejected her. Kyra just wanted to find someone that she could call a friend. One day, she found Corey and they were the best of friends until Corey...

This wasn’t exactly the novel I was hoping it would be. The side stories by the different authors were nothing to scream about, I didn’t think, but the main story about the ten delinquents left out in the woods for three days was what, had my attention. I wanted more of this story, I wanted to know ...

But Corey knows something isn’t right and Kyra shouldn’t have ‘gone’ s...

I finished reading this book in one sitting, I only had to stop reading because I was thirsty or I had to eat dinner. I was the whole time on the edge of my seat, and this book left me to be a sobbing mess. I felt so many emotions while reading this book.

I saw This is where it ends for the first time in the Buzz Books but after I was rejected on Netgalley, the book kind of disappeared from my radar until I saw it again last week (there has been very little publicity in The Netherlands for it, even though this is where the author lives). Mass shoot...

This was a quick read and it has a lot of potential. But overall its an exhausting book and gets a bit tiring. As school shootings are a big topic in today's society I was looking forward to reading this one. But, its lacked depth and ended up being one action scene after another without much though...
