I kind of liked it, and it definitely needs a second part, as the ending and the cast of characters lead us to realise that much more is at stakeāand that a storm's indeed coming.However, I had a hard time with half the characters at least (Evie herself, Isaiah, Sam...); the romance was rather usele...
I am finished! After at least a year of trying and trying again to read this book, giving up, I finally picked up the book again, and I went through it. And Dear Lord, it was a mighty trip of epicness, a trip that doesn't only lead to supernatural things, but also to love and romance. It was a fanta...
A young adult novel written by Libba Bray in 2012 I found out that Ms. Bray is an author of some note who has successful trilogies under her belt.I think that this book had a very interesting villain and I thought setting it in New York in the 1920s made for a more engrossing read when Bray started ...
Since my library bought a copy, The Diviners hasn't spent much time on the shelves. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I took the plunge and read it to find out what the fuss was about. I discovered a book that shouldn't have worked and, yet, strangely, I was hooked for nearly 600 pages... Read the re...
I wasn't sure what I expected when going into this one, I blame my Boardwalk Empire obsession that makes me fascinated with anything prohibition era related, YA novel with a New York setting in that era in time was an automatic must have for me. I loved the setting, and for the most part I loved t...
(MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS)I've never had my heart beat this fast since The Shadow of the Wind!The beginning was truly a catcher. When I finished chapter 1, I thought "this is going to be a great book". But the story slowly turned mushy and boring. There was too much transitioning from the life of a char...
For my first Libba Bray and a book written in the 1920's I can't use impressed as the word. This was a mind blowing book that both excited and scared me simultaneously.The writing style was perfect. The dialogues hilarious. The characters out of this world. I just can't fully express how amazing thi...
I am slightly disappointed with this book. I really liked the premise. I thought the plot was pretty good! I was really into the story and was sitting on the edge of my seat to find out more (even if I was able to predict a few twists here and there). However, I couldn't stand the main character, Ev...
I wanted to read an innovative YA novel that would satisfy my curiosity with the occult instead I got a dull mystery loaded with cardboard characters, trying to convey some moralistic message. And of course any self-respecting YA has to have some love triangle and a not so endearing female protagoni...
