Death of the Author Reviews
Sea of Shadow [Book Swap #4]
Chelsey and Alexandra talk about The Twelve Kingdoms Sea of Clouds a book that has AMAZING world building and is only held back by it's clunky prose.
The Haters Review
The Haters' benefits from Jesse Andrews' unique brand of comedy and writing style. While the plot is technically nothing out of the ordinary, it is highly enjoyable and laugh-out loud funny.
Glass Sword Vlog Review
Glass Sword delivers a sequel that in no way lives up to it’s predecessor. Between a lack of character development and a petulant heroine there is very little to hold our interest in this novel.
Peeps Review
While this book has aged a bit, the best part, the parasites, are still the stars of the show. Peeps even blatantly ignores the YA taboos of sex and alcohol and comes out better for it.
American Vampire Vol. 1 Review
American Vampire was a decent origin story but many of the themes that could have pervaded the story weren’t even touched upon. All in the series has potential and we hope that it reaches it.
Suffer the Children Review
Suffer the Children is a really creepy concept but falls into the trap of being extremely predictable. It's a short read that might scare you. A little.
Frostbite Review
Frostbite doesn’t hold with a lot of the cliches you’d expect from a high school vampire book. We were pleasantly surprised with its maturity.
Life and Death Review
On this magical Leap Day, Chelsey and Alexandra release to you dear viewer one more vampire review. A special review, a review Chelsey never wanted to do... but Alexandra made her. Welcome to Life ...
Carter and Lovecraft [Book Swap #3]
Carter & Lovecraft has enough Weird to satisfy any Lovecraft fan out there. With an unsettling vibe throughout the novel and film noir-esque premise, this book is one to enjoy.
Midwinterblood Review
A creepy atmosphere and tons of symbolism make Midwinterblood an intriguing read and a great essay subject.
Anna and the Swallow Man Review
Anna and the Swallow Man is a weird little book that's both fairy tale and historical fiction. Find out in this review why it will be an instant classic and is the perfect companion to The Book Thief.
The Masked Truth Spoiler Review
Teen fiction always needed a Die Hard, but will it work? Here is our more in-depth spoiler filled book review for The Masked Truth.
The Masked Truth Vlog Review
We don’t usually get violent hostage situations in teen fiction, which makes this book intriguing but the problems come from the boring setting and over technical explanations about mental health. It’...
Trial by Fire Review
Trial by Fire has its flaws. Lily is a bit of a Mary Sue and the plot is occasionally predictable but when paired with fascinating world and unusual concepts it becomes a story that keeps you reading.
Carry On Review
Carry On, the companion book to Rainbow Rowell’s bestseller Fan Girl, is exactly what we’d hoped it would be. With dynamic characters and a romance that will melt the hardest of hearts it should not b...
