Posted to http://www.nobentspines.blogspot.com/*Author Provided a free copy in exchange for an honest review*Okay. So this might be one of the few books that I don't have a book boyfriend in. Humm.

Rating: 1.5/5 starsInara Scott's portrayal of Dancia's character as a timid teenager with underlying raging hormones and paranormal issues felt way TOO realistic and (generally) accurate! Therefore, way too annoying.

The Candidates is one of the novels that I have been dying to read for such a long time that when I finally got the chance to read it I had been expecting so much. And already, I am happy to tell you all that the novel gave me everything I wanted and more! I will admit that because of the blurb tha...

This book felt X-men-ish with all the Delcroix agenda and the talents of its students. It was very intriguing to read… at first. I have to admit that I expected more from this book.

rating: 3.5Dislikes: I think this is one of those books where my age seems to come into play. I've been out of high school as long as the main character has been alive. I don't mind stories that take place in schools as long as something is happening. This book was missing that, it seemed to be most...

Ok more of a 3.5 for me, but mainly because I was not happy with the ending. Totally enjoyed reading this book. Ever since I saw this super gorgeous cover and read the synopsis I wanted to read that one. Perfect concept for a good novel: girl with mysterious powers, a boarding school and two boys! ...
