It wasn't BAD. It wasn't good in any different or outstanding way either. Too many of it's type crowding the shelves, and some of them are decidedly better. There were some nice bits on the relative strengh of the realtionships betweend sister wives and wife and husband, and there was some ring of...
This is, without a doubt, the worst book I've read so far this year, and one of the worst books I've ever read. I picked this one up because of my dystopian junky needs, and because it involves gender issues, which is another subject I like to explore in literature. The premise is this: Citize...
This is one of my favorite books ever. The plot is amazing i like how it is science-fiction and dystopian and how the story takes different and unexpected twists. I loved the characters and how the story starts coming together little by little. This story has betrayal and suspense and it has a lovel...
Another Dystopian YA that hit the bookshops and my library after the success of The Hunger Games. I had some problems with the genetics part of this book, as a training Biomedical Scientist.

Because of this disease, no one is able to live past the age of 20, if you're a woman, and 25, if you're a man. Rhine is forced into a marriage with tw...
I really loved this one. I loved the characters and I loved Rhine. There were a few things that didn't sit well with me and thus the 4 star rating instead of 5 stars. It didn't make sense that the virus would kill women at 20 and men at 25. What is this virus? Is it a virus or something genetic...
This was a difficult book to rate, so I'm going to break it up into "pros" and "cons""pros" - Awesome cover! Totally captured the pages within. The story follows the misfortune of 3 girls, Rhine, Jenna and Cecily who are kidnapped by "gatherers" to become the sister wives of a wealthy man named Lind...
Some novels just have you engrossed in the story from the very first page. Wither was such a novel for me. Wither opens with a beautifully written and harrowing first chapter, where a beginning is made to show the world building. You’re thrown right in the story. Unfortunately, the other chapters di...
