Helen, who is blessed with superhuman strength and plagued by nightmares, learns that the reason she's always felt different is that she is a scion, or demigod. So is Lucas. Each scion is a member of a different House, founded by a different Greek god. Since the end of the Trojan War, Zeus dictated ...
***NOTE! Review posted on ja čitam, a ti? Starcrossed, alongside with Until I Die by Amy Plum, was one of the books with pretty covers I wanted badly to read last year. And then it was published, I read few negative reviews and I already was disappointed with Until I Die, so I gave up. Other tha...
Sooo.. In the first 3 chapters I honestly thought the book had been written about a crazy girl (I mean, I know that as teenage girls we might want to attack hot guys..but not try to murder them!).Then the book really picked up after that, and I fell in love with it.But ended up in tears within the l...

Stellar premise. Horrible execution. I tried for three full weeks to finish this book and just couldn't do it. Every time I'd pick it up, I'd get such a headache from eyerolling I'd have to put it back down again. None of the characters captured my interest enough to care. The writing I found to be ...
