Review:

After reading The Moon and More I can say with the utmost confidence that Sarah Dessen is my favorite author of all time. Her writing is completely mesmerizing and it just gets better with every book. However, I feel that The Moon and More falls slightly short of all of Sarah Dessen's other works. This book is no This Lullaby. And while it is expected that Dessen's books can't all be as good as This Lullaby, I was a bit disappointed.

I think the thing that bothered me the most with this book was the romance. Neither of the romances were developed enough, and I didn't feel any attachment to either guy. Sarah Dessen attempted a love triangle but I didn't really like the way she went about writing it. Luke was a douchebag, of course I didn't like him, and although Theo was slightly better, their relationship was never explained very much, and it came to a dead end. At the end of the book, Emaline never said what happened with her and Theo, even though they broke up. I thought there should be some sort of closure at the end, but there wasn't. There just didn't seem to be a central plot direction. Maybe there was, and I'm just completely missing it, but I don't think so. So therefore, the romance kind of sucked.

Emaline as a protagonist was ok. Sarah Dessen's heroines usually have some sort of gusto that is different from other heroines seen in YA fiction, but Emaline is definitely at the end of the list for me. She seemed cold, rude, and I just wasn't able to make connections with her that well. I understand that she had gone through a lot, but her character was... not really relatable and obnoxious.

But, of course, reading this book was a definitely a treat. Sarah Dessen's writing is perfect, when I say perfect, I mean MORE than perfect. Each sentence was perfectly formed and fit together like a puzzle. I can't get enough of the words she writes, and despite my complaints, I was sad when this book was over. No more Sarah Dessen until...I don't know when, but not for at least a couple years. There are still some Dessen books I haven't read, so I'm definitely on those soon.

If you're hesitating to read The Moon and More, I would say that there are some legit things to be hesitant about, but if you are a Sarah Dessen fan, then go for it! Most of the reviews I see are 5-star perfect, but this just wasn't my favorite Dessen. So this might be me just being picky and you might LOVE this book.

First there are nightmares. Then come the memories. Now she must hunt.
Ellie can't shake the terrifying dreams about monstrous creatures that are hunting her, killing her. Then she meets Will and feels on the verge of remembering something just beyond her grasp. His attention is intense and romantic, and Ellie feels like her soul has known him for centuries. When they meet on a dark street at midnight, Will awakens Ellie's power, and she knows that she can fight the creatures that stalk her in the grim darkness. Will holds the key to Ellie's memories, whole lifetimes of them, and she can no longer pretend anything was just a dream.  Her role is to hunt and kill the reapers that prey on human souls. In order to survive, she must also hunt for the secrets of her past lives, the dangerous and ancient battle of the angels and the Fallen, and the truths that are too frightening to remember. Angelfire is achingly romantic, terrifying, and filled with blistering action.

I started Angelfire not really knowing what to expect. I'd heard great things about it and terrible things about it. I guess my opinion falls somewhere in the middle, because while I didn't love the book, I also didn't hate it. To me, this book is the definition of a 3-star book. Not perfect, but not terrible. I'm not really sure how to make this into a formal review, so I'm going to break this review up into 4 elements: the writing, the plot, the characters, and the romance.

• The writing I didn't have any real problems with the writing, but it wasn't my favorite. I like it when the writing flows smoothly without any bumps, but this writing had some flaws. For example, sometimes the sentences were kind of choppy and didn't fit together perfectly. I guess this might be the result of this having been Moulton's debut novel. Ellie as a narrator was...interesting. I wasn't a fan of her character (more about that later) but I also didn't like her narration. Sometimes she'd say things and I would literally roll my eyes. I'm sorry but I'm just telling the truth. The thing I did like about the writing was that Moulton did an insanely awesome job describing the fight scenes. She described them in such detail and that's a skill that many authors lack. 

• The plot The plot was definitely my favorite part--but that doesn't follow that I adored it. I have only read a couple books about angels (Hush, Hush and Fallen). I loved Hush, Hush and wasn't a fan of Fallen, so I wasn't sure if I was keen on the angel thing coming into this book. I like the idea of a girl being kick-ass enough to save the freaking world, but the idea wasn't carried out well enough. I heard on and on about how Ellie was so powerful and courageous and Moulton displayed examples of this, but all in all, I didn't CARE how powerful Ellie was at the end. I've already heard this ten gazillion times!!!!! What I did like about the plot really comes down to the angels. The Fallen, the Grigori, the reapers, etc. I loved hearing about all of them and their powers and what they could do. It was like discovering a new genre of books that I'd never heard about before. So I loved that. 

• The characters I have a lot of mixed feelings about the characters. On the one hand, Ellie is pretty kick-ass for a YA female character, but on the other hand, I hated her and was *this close* to wishing that she would die already. As a character, I found her to obnoxious. And also. I am SOOOO, SOOOO sick of heroines in young adult books blatantly lying to their parents and not even feeling very bad about it! Ellie did have some regrets when she lied to her parents, but when she said, "I have more important things to think about than curfew and house rules" (direct quote missing), I literally wanted to throw the book across the room and scream.  Anyway, that was my opinion of Ellie--not very good. I liked Will too. He definitely wasn't my favorite YA love interest, but he was lovable and crush-worthy. There wasn't anything particularly interesting about him (well, other than the fact that he's a...guardian angel) but he seemed sweet and caring (even if Ellie didn't deserve his love at all), so I liked him. 

• The romance I probably have the most to say about the romance. For one thing, I liked the buildup to the romance and how it really didn't get started until like 75% of the way through the book. I also liked the forbidden love element, since I always am a sucker for reading about forbidden love. But also, it seemed like once it did get started, it escalated too quickly. Such as, just days after their first kiss, Ellie was thinking that she wanted to touch him, feel him, and even though she never said directly that she wanted to have sex with him, it was strongly implied--so strongly implied that it took me a moment to realize that she didn't actually say it. Anyway, though, the romance had an interesting ending. Cliff hanger!! Another thing about the romance: It wasn't insta-love, but it seemed like it because just moments after Ellie met him she was "captured by his gaze" or "thinking that he was sooo hot". I get that Ellie and Will had known each other from previous lives but it didn't prevent those things from being annoying. As you might now, I'm not very picky and can usually go with the flow with things like this, but it bothered me a little. 

So all in all, Angelfire didn't blow my mind, but it also didn't make me want to hurl (always a good thing). It seems like your typical YA fantasy romance, and it is. A little cliche, but I haven't read too many angel books, so maybe the reason why it seemed new and different was that. I suggest you read it if you like angels, and you don't mind if your female protagonist is a complete idiot. Happy reading. :)

3/5 stars

Will
Maybe I'm too late. Maybe Zoe's dad stole all her fifteen years and taught her to be scared. I'll undo it. Help her learn to be estrong again, and brave. Not that I'm any kind of example, but we can learn together. When the whole world is after you, sometimes it feels like you can't run fast enough.

Zoe
Maybe it'll take Will years to come to terms with being abandoned. Maybe it'll take forever. I'll stay with him no matter how long it takes to prove that people don't always leave, don't always give up on you.

*This review contains a spoiler, but I have marked it off with a bracket*

I don't usually go for books like these--sad, heartbreaking; the main topic being romance. The subject matter is completely outside of my comfort zone as well. But the synopsis sounded really interesting, and I'd seen some reviews that captured my attention. So I decided to read it, even though I was a little nervous. I wasn't really sure what to expect. And for a debut novel, this book was impressive.

I have a few complaints about this book though. For one thing, the romance.  I certainly don't know what it's like to be in love, nor do I expect myself to. When I figured out that Zoe was only 15, I had to pause for a second as I did the math. She's 15, Will is 18, I'm 13...15 seems young doesn't it? I mean, of course teenage girls can have silly, giggly schoolgirl fantasies (believe me, I've had my fair share of those), but don't you think 15 is a little young to be thinking seriously about love, marriage, and sex? Especially with a guy who is 3 years older than you. I guess it just weirded me out a little; maybe I'll understand when I'm older or something like that. Another thing I was not a fan of, was Zoe. I disliked her weakness. I know that her life really sucked, and that she'd been through a lot, but she seemed too delicate and vulnerable and Will seemed too powerful and overprotective, which I hated. In good relationships these days, the girl has to be as much of an influence as the guy. This book lacked that, and it disappointed me. [[I did admire the decision that Zoe made at the end, which required some smartness and showed that she wasn't exactly some china doll waiting to break into pieces]]. Despite the considerable age gap between Will and Zoe, however, I loved their relationship. It wasn't forced or fake, and the romance developed over the course of the book. Even though they hadn't known each other for that long before they decided to run off, it didn't seem like a case of insta-love because they only really started to love each other about halfway through the book, or at least it seemed that way to me.

Besides these things, this book was superb. The premise was brilliantly conveyed and the writing was flawless.  I usually don't go for books with alternating perspectives, but for this book it worked really well. I loved the way that Halbrook painted a picture for you. The plot, the characters--they were all crystal clear. I couldn't put this book down, I finished it in two sittings and just lay there in shock after I finished it. The ending was emotional and powerful and didn't seem forced in the least bit.  I don't usually cry during books, and I didn't cry during this book, but the ending was definitely tear-worthy.

I was pretty torn between giving this book 3 or 4 stars, but I've decided on 3 stars. I enjoyed this book a lot, but I think that it had some potential that Halbrook just didn't take enough advantage of. Halbrook did do an excellent job of just diving in--some debut authors close their books in a wimpy way, but Halbrook went out with a total bang and I loved that. I don't think I've ever read a debut novel quite like this one before, and that's a good thing.

3/5 stars

Review: Paranormalcy by Kiersten White

Paranormalcy
by Kiersten White
Release Date: August 31, 2010
by HarperTeen
Num Pages: 335
Links: Goodreads

Weird as it is working for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, Evie's always thought of herself as normal. Sure, her best friend is a mermaid, her ex-boyfriend is a faerie, she's falling for a shape-shifter, and she's the only person who can see through paranormals' glamours, but still. Normal.
Only now paranormals are dying, and Evie's dreams are filled with haunting voices and mysterious prophecies. She soon realizes that there may be a link between her abilities and the sudden rash of deaths. Not only that, but she very well may be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures. So much for normal.

Cute, sassy, flirty and totally a guilty pleasure read. It's the perfect thing to read if you're looking for a light read that will make you laugh.
I am so in love with these characters. For one, I LOVE Evie. I mean, come on, she carries a sparkly taser that she named Tasey, her best friend is a freaking MERMAID, and she's totally a normal girl while being...well, not normal! I loved the way that White created the contrast between those two things. She chases around paranormals in her free time, yet she can't get enough of Easton High. I just loved that whole premise. But back to the characters. Lend--Oh my gosh, I LOVE THAT BOY!!!!! *fangirls* He was just perfect, amazing, cute, and everything a book boyfriend should be. I'm so glad that he was in this book. So the characters were definitely my favorite part.

The writing, not so much. This was White's debut novel, and I think it was pretty good for a debut novel. But I have to say that her writing kind of gave me a headache. Sometimes the sentences didn't flow right, or everything just seemed sudden and at times I was like, "Wow! How'd we get here, when just two sentences ago, we were there." That kind of annoyed me. And in some places it was just a little too cute, which as much as I hate to say, annoys me to no end.
The plot was cute, just like the writing and the characters (for lack of a better word; "cute" is the only word coming to mind right now), but at the end it started to slip away a little bit. The action was definitely exciting, but it didn't really keep me on the edge of my seat, if you know what I mean. Also, this book was really predictable. From the moment we were introduced to Lend I predicted that Evie would fall in love with him (and it wasn't because there was a blatant spoiler on the back cover of the book). Even though that part was predictable, I still thought the plot was fun and...cute. O_O

While this book wasn't my perfect cup of tea, it might be just yours and I tell you, read it! It's totally worth the fun and relaxing feel, even if you feel like you've just indulged in a huge jar of chocolate frosting. I really enjoyed it.

Review: Such A Rush by Jennifer Echols

Such A Rush
by Jennifer Echols
Release Date: July 10, 2012
by MTV Books
Num Pages: 336
Links: Goodreads/Purchase

A sexy and poignant romantic tale of a young daredevil pilot caught between two brothers. 

When I was fourteen, I made a decision. If I was doomed to live in a trailer park next to an airport, I could complain about the smell of jet fuel like my mom, I could drink myself to death over the noise like everybody else, or I could learn to fly. 

For Leah Jones, reality is life in a rundown trailer park with an irresponsible mother. But there's one escape. With an after-school job at the local airstrip, she manages to afford cut-rate flight lessons. At the controls of a small plane, she leaves the trailer part far below, swooping out over the sea in the ultimate rush. 

By her senior year of high school, Leah's dreams come true: she snags a job flying for an aerial banner-advertising business. Then the owner dies suddenly, leaving everything in the hands of his teenage sons: golden boy Alec and adrenaline junkie Grayson. Though Leah has crushed on Grayson for years, she tries to stay clear of the apparently doomed business--until Grayson digs up her most damning secret. Holding it over Leah's head, he forces her to fly for secret reasons of his own, reasons involving Alec. She's been drawn into a battle between brothers--and the consequences could be deadly. 

My Review:

This review deals with talking some sexual content in the book, so if you'd like to skip the parts about that I have closed them off with [[these]].

Such A Rush was definitely not what I was expecting, but I ended up really liking this book.

     This book was different from what I usually read (in a good way!). I really liked Jennifer's writing style and the way she told the story through Leah. Leah's a really complicated character and I'm not sure if I like her or not but let me just tell you, this story-line is amazing. 

    The first two pages were boring and it took me a while to get past those two pages. But after that, it went straight into the story, and I was hooked. The story didn't officially start until more than halfway through, though, and that's when I realized that I was staying up way too late for a school night but I just HAD to finish this book because it was so amazing, sexy, and powerful. 

    [[[So I think I have to say some things about the content in this book. This book is heavy, very easy and light to read but then, being a thirteen year old, there were some parts that I would have preferred not to read if you catch my drift.  I guess I'm just going to have to say it, despite it being really awkward: There IS graphic sex in this book. So, be aware of that before you read it. I don't mind sex in books as long as it doesn't go into full-out details and the characters aren't younger than sixteen or seventeen.  The first time Leah had sex she was 14, so that put me off a little, but then she was 18 the next time she did it, so that was fine with me, but it was a little intense, like I would have preferred not to hear [[[too much about that thing in Grayson's pants and too much about him putting his fingers between Leah's legs]]]. Anyway *looks away awkwardly*, this was the first book I've read with that kind of sex in it, and it wasn't all too bad (it was well written....) but I prefer just plain old kissing to hardcore sex. ]]]]

   Now that I've covered that lovely topic (thank god), I think I also have to say some things about Grayson. I have read some not-so-rave reviews about the way Grayson treated Leah. I am all for guys treating girls like they should be treated. I didn't think Grayson treated Leah all that badly. He had his reasons, and though sometimes I wanted to punch him in the face, he ended up pretty good by the end. Another thing about Grayson- I just couldn't picture him with blonde, curly hair. I kept picturing him with light brown, curly hair. 

  This book also deals with the concept of twins. I love reading about twins and have always wondered what it would be like to have a twin. Alec, Grayson's twin, is clearly the more relaxed, easygoing twin. It's Grayson that's the stress mess. :p I mean, yeah, he's pretty messed up, but you know, he's been through a lot in his life, so I'm cutting the guy a break. I thought for all he'd been through, he ended up pretty good. And Alec's relaxed manner put me off a little, I wouldn't expect someone who'd been through all that Alec had been through to be so...I don't know, relaxed I guess is the best word. 

  And then there's Leah. Her mom was 16 when she had her, and never really learned how to be a mother. You can see how her mother's attitude reflects on Leah. They're nothing alike, but Leah does seem to keep insisting on wearing slutty clothing just to make boys look at her. I didn't like that part of her, her desire to wear gross, [[[look-at-my-boobs and see how much you can see of my underwear]]] clothing, it was never really explained why she wanted to do that. Like Alec said, Leah was like two different people. There was the flirty, giggly her, and then there was the sexy pilot who was all work, no play. While Alec liked the flirty giggly version of Leah, the pilot one was WAY more kickass and way more what I wanted this book to be about. Here was a really good idea for a book and it was expressed well but I think that Jennifer could have expressed it a little more clearly. A young girl pilot? Totally my type of book!! But then there was so much hype involved around the romance and Leah's slutty clothing choices that I didn't really get the chance to focus on this awesome, kick-ass idea for a book. 

  Anyway, I really liked Such A Rush despite some blemishes along the way. I would really recommend this book, but I would say 13, or even 14 and up. I'm obviously 13 and can handle it (if I had been any younger I would have been uncomfortable...). I hate to be one of those "wait till you're older" type of people, but I seriously think this book is best fitted for mid-teens. I might try to reread it again in a few years just to see if my experience is different. Happy reading. :)

3.5/5 stars

Book Review: Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick

Synopsis*:
Nora Grey's life is still far from perfect. Surviving an attempt on her life wasn't pleasant, but at least she got a guardian angel out of it. A mysterious, magnetic, gorgeous guardian angel. But despite his role in her life, Patch has been acting anything but angelic. He's more elusive than ever (if that's possible) and what's worse, he seems to be spending time with Nora's archenemy, Marcie Millar.

Nora would have hardly noticed Scott Parnell, an old family friend who has moved back to town, if Patch hadn't been acting so distant. Even with Scott's totally infuriating attitude, Nora finds herself drawn to him - despite her lingering feelings that he is hiding something.

If that weren't enough, Nora is haunted by images of her murdered father, and comes to question whether her Nephilim bloodline has anything to do with his death. Desperate to figure out what happened, she puts herself in increasingly dangerous situations to get the answer. But maybe some things are better left buried, because the truth could destroy everything - and everyone - she trusts.

My Rating: 3/5 stars
Who Recommended it to Me: I read the first book and liked it, so naturally I wanted to read this one. 
Who I'd Recommend it to: Fans of the Twilight Saga and fans of the first book in the series. 

My Review: 

I'm going to have to give this book 3.5 stars because while it was a really good book, there are some key things that bothered me and can't be overlooked.

First off, it was really captivating. I finished it in a day and couldn't put it down. Becca Fitzpatrick really knows how to capture you into Nora's world and feel when she's scared, when she's happy, when she's sad. Several times, I could feel my eyes widen or my hand grab the edge of my seat as she told something particularly astonishing. She writes in a really inspiring way, so that's what I admire about this book. I also love the storyline: Regular girl meets super hot fallen angel and they fall in love, but there's really more to the story than their love. It might seem kind of cliche, and it is sort of cliche, but it seems different than other typical YA love stories I've read about, which was kind of what I liked about it.

In the first book, I really liked Nora. I thought she was awesome and kick-butt and I could relate to her alot. But then in this book, she started acting like a pure idiot, too needy and jealous. She jumped to conclusions really quickly and obviously if it weren't for some really dumb moves she made throughout the book, she would be in a different place where she was at the end of the book. Even Vee started to annoy me. She didn't believe Nora and was too wrapped up in Rixon and making Nora jealous that she kind of forgot she was Nora's best friend. Surprisingly enough, I never got annoyed with Patch--I always got annoyed with Nora for being annoyed at Patch, if that makes any sense. I always knew that Patch was innocent, and that he wasn't the Black Hand. Same with Scott. But anyway, I'm on Team Patch.

Another thing that frustrated me about this book was that it was such a mess. It was poorly organized, to tell you the truth, and so many new things came up that it was hard to keep track of it all. In the midst of everything, I forgot that Nora's mom was supposed to be having an affair with Marcie's dad. And what's the deal with that? I got sooo confused with that whole scenario that I started to give up, then I had to reread it for the book to make sense, which really, really frustrated me. >.<

All in all, though, I would say that if you liked the first book (as I did), then this one is worth a try. I was expecting something brilliant from this book, despite a few warnings i got that it wasn't as good as the first book. Yeah, it definitely didn't read up to my expectations, getting only a 3-star rating (I'm floating somewhere between 3 and 4 stars), but I would still say it was definitely worth the read. The writing isn't high quality or anything, but this one is a page-turner and one of those ones you should just curl up with and read in one sitting. 

The Summer I Turned Pretty (Summer #1)

Synopsis:
Belly measures her life in summers. Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer, a place away from the beach house, away from Susannah, and most importantly, away from Jeremiah and Conrad. They are the boys that Belly has known since her very first summer--they have been her brother figures, her crushes, and everything in between. But one summer, one terrible and wonderful summer, the more everything changes, the more it all ends up just the way it should have been all along. 

My Rating: <img src="URL HERE"> 
Who Recommended it to Me: no one in particular
Who I Would Recommend it to: Fans of Sarah Dessen and those who like light beach reads and realistic stories about regular girls and their lives.

My review:
Oh, the summer story.  The one that makes you smell the sand of the beach and the chlorine of the pool as you're reading it.  The one that reminds you how wonderfully awful summers can be.  I found it very like Sarah Dessen's books, or The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks.  A very quick fun easy enjoyable read, and I'd recommend it to those who are nostalgic about summer coming to a close but at the same time want a light read that you can finish in a matter of hours. 

The main character of this book is a 15-year-old girl named Isabel Conklin. Everyone calls her Belly. One of the things I found semi-annoying about this book was the girl's name -- "Belly". (Why am I reading so many books these days with girls who have bad names? I'm so confused.) The name Belly makes me think of a stomachache, or bellybutton rings, or the gross insides of people's stomachs.  Yes, this is disgusting, but can I help what I think? No I can't. So I'm just gonna tell you the truth.  Belly lives every summer with her mom, brother, and close family friends, Susannah and her two sons, Conrad and Jeremiah (again with the names; Jeremiah makes me think of the Bible for some weird unknown reason). They spend their days mostly hanging out at the pool, swimming, and just hanging out in general.  It sounds pretty fun, I have to admit.  

I'm not really sure how to make this into a formal review, so I'm just going to list things I liked and things I didn't like below. 
Things I Liked:
- The feel of the story.  Like I said in the first paragraph, I liked the way you could smell the sand and chlorine and have that feeling you get in the summertime just by reading a sentence of it. 
- The characters. Despite their names, they're really honest and well-figured out.  They seem like people you'd meet on the street or even people you'd be friends with. 
- Cam. I hated that she broke up with him and went for Conrad instead. I loved Cam, thought he was so sweet and that Belly was a total jerk to him. 
- Jeremiah. Thought he was great and funny.

Things I Didn't Like:
- How I could read it in a day.  I like to take my time while reading books but this one I just had no choice but to tear through.  After I read it I didn't really feel anything. 
- Conrad.  He was a jerk jerk jerk jerk idiot idiot idiot idiot! He was messed-up and annoying and I could say a loot of other things but I don't wanna get in trouble for writing them so I won't:)
- The names, as I already mentioned.  They were annoying. 

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes Sarah Dessen and Nicholas Spark's The Last Song. I liked Sarah Dessen's books a lot better than I liked this book (they are some of my favorite books) but the writing and feel is exactly the same, so I think that if you're a Sarah Desen fan you might enjoy this as well.  I also wouldn't recommend this book to boys, or to people who think that you shouldn't just go around reading light reads.  It's definitely a light book and definitely a beach read, but thats what I sorta liked about it.  

So if you're going to buy it, I say sit back and enjoy.  Read it, appreciate it, review it, and all the necessary ingredients to reading a book.  Happy reading:)
