I cannot make myself finish this when there are so many other good books waiting to be read on my shelves. The main character is whiney, the tone of the writing leans more toward middle grade than young adult and feels particularly plain and childish. Might pick this up again later, but for now I am...
"I don’t need a new person to suddenly spring up under my skin and push out who I was, who I’ve already decided to be. Those feelings have no place in my life and I will not let myself be a fool in love, with love, let it take over and destroy me." It would be so easy for me to list what I disliked ...
I don't usually read YA, but I make an exception for Ms. White, because I like her blog. So take the review with a grain of salt, because this isn't my usual genre.I really liked this book.

The cover is really gorgeous!The first hal...
Initial reaction: Sadly, I was disappointed by this. I really wanted to like it because a) it has a gorgeous cover and an awesome title, b) it involved both Egyptian and Greek mythology, and I'm a huge mythology nerd. But ... I found there was too much focus on the romance, and over all I found the ...
Great original use of non-Western mythology is something that gets me every time! "THE CHAOS OF STARS, while it started out slow, blossomed into a lovely story with original ideas and just enough teen angst to keep me interested, but not make me go nuts. It was a quick, smooth read, with a fun cast ...
