It was hard to put this book down, even to just fold laundry. However, it should be noted that de la Cruz has a particular writing style - very short chapters, heavy on plot, rotating third person POVs (in this case Freya, Ingrid, and Joanne), and for an adult book, very little sex on the page. I wa...
I started off watching the show when it became available on Netflix, and it wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't great either. I picked up the book, thinking it couldn't be any worse than the show and was rather surprised. First, the whole genre itself was changed to adapt it for television. The b...

I finished this one on Tuesday. First, I have to say books about witches and magic in modern times really suck me in. I love them. This one was no different. The prologue intrigued me and got me interested right away. After the first 50 pages or so, though, I was afraid this was going to be mor...
I found this book on a browse through my B&N while on vacation and impulsively picked it up. I enjoyed it - the ending, which I though reflected her YA writing in it's almost-silliness, was very creative, I thought, and the story itself was enjoyable. This is touted as being the first in a series, a...
