I love books that have to deal with forgiveness. Sometimes in life, bad things come at you, you don't understand till years later and then BAM! You realize your angry. You understand the situation more, but you still don't understand why it happen that way. You want explanations. You want answers no...
This was a very quick, summery read. It was a bit tragic, so not necessarily an upbeat beach read. The cover is dark, so that should give you a clue. And the romance just wasn't there for me. Anna and Tyler just couldn't measure up to other YA romances I've read. Now, I know that this wasn't the foc...

It’s about strength and love. Kirby fit many emotions into her book and did a wonderful job with her characters a...
This was one of those books that I wanted to love more than I actually did. The story was good and I really enjoyed the setting of it, but there was something lacking that kept it from grabbing my attention and hanging on.
This is a perfect mixture of grief and romance. I really connected with the main character Anna, and Ms. Kirby wrote her emotions beautifully and they really evoke a response.

I assumed it would be a light, frothy, summer-romance-on-the-beach read. (Not that there's anything wrong with that!) When I finally picked it up, I w...
I've come to find that discovering new contemporary YA authors to love is becoming a consuming hobby, but it's so worth it when I find an author like Jessi Kirby and a book like MOONGLASS.I'm not the biggest fan of MOONGLASS' cover, but the blurb by Sarah Dessen intrigued me. Dessen has been one of ...
Jessi Kirby's debut novel is a must-read for summer. That gorgeous cover drew me to it but the story is what really got me. It's a heartbreaking story of love, loss, and finally learning how to live again.Anna Ryan does not like the way her life is going. Moving back to the beach where her parent...
As the story opens, it's the end of summer and Anna and her father are moving from her childhood home in Pismo Beach, California, to Crystal Cove. In addition to the difficulties of leaving behind her home and friends, she's also leaving behind her mother; or rather, the place her mother died. When ...
