This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

Cress by Marissa Meyer

Pub date: Feb 14th 2014

IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A COVER YET -SOBS- We had to wait a year for Scarlet, and we have to wait another year for Cress, and then we have to wait another year for Winter! Like, Marissa Meyerrrrrrrrr omgggggggg. I really can't wait, and totes pumped for this cover reveal because I just know it's gonna be gorgeous. I love love love love this series. It's completely amazing.

Synopsis: Rapunzel's tower is a satellite. She can't let down her hair - or her guard.

In this third book in the bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army. 

Their best hope lies with Cress, who has been trapped on a satellite since childhood with only her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker – unfortunately, she’s just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice. 

When a daring rescue goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing stop her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only ones who can.

Book Review: Sylo by D.J. MacHale

SYLO (The SYLO Chronicles, #1)Sylo by D.J. MacHale
Book Summary: Does Tucker Pierce have what it takes to be a hero when the U.S. military quarantines his island?

Fourteen-year-old Tucker Pierce prefers to fly under the radar. He’s used to navigating around summer tourists in his hometown on idyllic Pemberwick Island, Maine. He’s content to sit on the sidelines as a backup player on the high school football team. And though his best friend Quinn tells him to “go for it,” he’s too chicken to ask Tori Sleeper on a date. There’s always tomorrow, he figures. Then Pemberwick Island is invaded by a mysterious branch of the U.S. military called SYLO. And sitting on the sidelines is no longer an option for Tucker, because tomorrow may never come. 

It’s up to Tucker, Quinn, and Tori to uncover the truth about the singing aircraft that appears only at night—and the stranger named Feit who’s pushing a red crystal he calls the Ruby that brings unique powers to all who take it. Tucker and his friends must rescue not just Pemberwick Island, but the fate of the world—and all before tomorrow is too late.  

#1 New York Times bestselling author D.J. MacHale brings his brilliant plotting and breathless pacing to SYLO, the first in this ultimate end-of-the-world adventure trilogy.

Liana's Summary: Tucker Pierce doesn't try hard enough. He doesn't live up to his potential, his parents say. He always backs away before he can humiliate himself by trying, his best friend tells him. When Pemberwick Island, his home, is invaded by SYLO, and there's a mysterious man named Feit who tries to get Tucker to try a drug that can send power channeling through every vein of the body-- Tucker's world turns upside-down..

Book Review: Persephone's Orchard by Molly Ringle.

Persephone's OrchardPersephone's Orchard by Molly Ringle.
Book Summary: The Greek gods never actually existed. Did they? Sophie Darrow finds she was wrong about that assumption when she's pulled into the spirit realm, complete with an Underworld, on her first day at college. Adrian, the mysterious young man who brought her there, simply wants her to taste a pomegranate. 

Soon, though she returns to her regular life, her mind begins exploding with dreams and memories of ancient times; of a love between two Greeks named Persephone and Hades. But lethal danger has always surrounded the immortals, and now that she's tainted with the Underworld's magic, that danger is drawing closer to Sophie.


Liana's Summary: When a dude wearing strange clothes enters her dorm room, clearly stressed, needing help, and somewhat lost, Sophie couldn't do anything but try to help him. But where does that lead her? It leads her to Adrian Watt. It leads her to another realm. But what will that lead to? Danger.

Book Review: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevive Tucholke.

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve TucholkeBetween the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke.
Book Summary: You stop fearing the devil when you’re holding his hand…

Nothing much exciting rolls through Violet White’s sleepy, seaside town…until River West comes along. River rents the guesthouse behind Violet’s crumbling estate, and as eerie, grim things start to happen, Violet begins to wonder about the boy living in her backyard. Is River just a crooked-smiling liar with pretty eyes and a mysterious past? Or could he be something more? Violet’s grandmother always warned her about the Devil, but she never said he could be a dark-haired boy who takes naps in the sun, who likes coffee, who kisses you in a cemetery...who makes you want to kiss back. Violet’s already so knee-deep in love, she can’t see straight. And that’s just how River likes it.

Blending faded decadence and the thrilling dread of gothic horror, April Genevieve Tucholke weaves a dreamy, twisting contemporary romance, as gorgeously told as it is terrifying—a debut to watch.


Liana's Summary: When the panther-hipped River West comes into Violet White's life, things start to happen. Eerie things. Scary things. Violet starts to suspect River.. what could he be? But why should she suspect him? She likes him. A lot. There's something going on with River. Something Violet needs to know.

Rate(1-10): 7.9 (Not quite an 8. But close enough, right?)

Book Review: Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare, Illustrations by Hyekyung Baek (Manga!)

Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices: Manga, #1)Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare, Illustrations by Hyekyung Baek, Manga!
Book Summary: A manga-adaption to the prequel of Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments series, The Infernal Devices is the story of Tessa Gray, a sixteen-year-old American girl traveling alone to Victorian London who runs afoul of the city's sordid supernatural underworld. Rescued by the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, Tessa quickly finds herself caught up in an intrigue that may very well destroy her new friends - including the two enigmatic young men, Jem and Will, who have taken her under their wing...

Liana's Summary: Cassandra Clare's The Infernal Devices, in manga form. Tessa goes to London to find her brother Nate, but she gets tangled in a mass of Shadowhunters and Downworlders.. And finds out something about herself, as well.

Rate(1-10): 10

This is my very first manga review. (The Infernal Devices will probably be the only mangas I will bother to review, or even read.. unless TMI becomes a manga series too!) Okay, usually, I don't read mangas. I don't. But I really had to read this. My favoriteseries, being turned into a manga? TOTES GONNA READ IT, OF COURSE.

I absolutely loved reading this. Almost all the characters were the perfect portrayal of my mental images (except for Magnus, though we can't deny he looks fabulous with his luscious locks). 

When I was reading this, I was just like, OH YES YES YES I REMEMBER THIS PART. I cannot wait for the Clockwork Prince manga to come out. omg. This was just amazing and brought the novel to a whole new level.


For those who are lazy to actually read the whole novel.. (Ugh, those people) please do read the whole novel prior to reading the manga, because the manga happens to be more enjoyable after you've read the book.

Book Review: Shadow by Amanda Sun. (Paper Gods #0.5)

Shadow by Amanda SunShadow by Amanda Sun 
(Paper Gods #0.5)
Book Summary: Meet two teens whose worlds are about to change forever in this paranormal Young Adult novella, a prequel to Ink by debut author Amanda Sun…

Katie Greene’s worst nightmare comes true when her mother dies, and she’s devastated to learn that she will have to leave the only home she’s ever known. Desperate to find where she belongs, she must decide if she has what it takes to start a new life across the ocean. 

For Yuu Tomohiro, every day is a nightmare. He struggles to control his strange ability, and keeps everyone at a distance so they won’t get hurt—even his girlfriend, Myu. At night, a shadow haunts his dreams, and a mysterious woman torments him with omens of death and destruction. But these haunting premonitions are only the beginning…

Liana's Summary: Katie Greene doesn't know what's coming. Tomohiro Yuu doesn't know what's coming, either. But their lives are about to collide. Amanda Sun writes an amazing prequel that tells the story of life barely before Ink.

Rate(1-10): 8

Well, I looked for this ebook for about half an hour, and yeah, it was totes worth it.

I'd just finished Ink last night. It was really, really good. When I'd found out that there was a prequel, and it was free, I knew I really wanted to read it.

It's basically about Katie and Tomo's lives before they collided. What I found interesting was Tomo's life, or should I say, point of view. I always find the guy's point of view to be interesting. Even if this is a short prequel, I'd recommend you read Ink first because these concepts can be pretty confusing.

Overall, I enjoyed it! Cannot wait for the next installment in the series.

This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:


The Bitter Kingdom by Rae Carson

Pub Date: August 27th, 2013

I know there are a lot to choose from, and The Bitter Kingdom wasn't really on the top of my mind recently. But, I just so happened to go on Goodreads and see that Cinda Williams Chima just finished the ARC. I'm so jealous. Why can't I be an author and get ARCs to read and let my reviews matter to people? -claws at the sky- Anyway, her review got me really on edge and now I'm super excited.

Book Review: Ink by Amanda Sun.

Ink (Paper Gods, #1)
Ink by Amanda Sun. (Paper Gods #1)
Book Summary: On the heels of a family tragedy, the last thing Katie Greene wants to do is move halfway across the world. Stuck with her aunt in Shizuoka, Japan, Katie feels lost. Alone. She doesn’t know the language, she can barely hold a pair of chopsticks, and she can’t seem to get the hang of taking her shoes off whenever she enters a building.

Then there’s gorgeous but aloof Tomohiro, star of the school’s kendo team. How did he really get the scar on his arm? Katie isn’t prepared for the answer. But when she sees the things he draws start moving, there’s no denying the truth: Tomo has a connection to the ancient gods of Japan, and being near Katie is causing his abilities to spiral out of control. If the wrong people notice, they'll both be targets.

Katie never wanted to move to Japan—now she may not make it out of the country alive.


Liana's Summary: Katie doesn't want to be in Japan anymore. She's homesick. However, she can't do anything about it. She's stuck with her aunt in Japan. When she meets the hot and popular, Tomohiro Yuu, and sees one of his drawings move, she knows something's up, and starts following him around to attempt to find out his secret...

Rate(1-10): 9.5


This book has been given to me in exchange for an honest review.

This book. Was so good. I just really have to give it a flat out, full rating.

Before I cracked it open, I knew that it was a Japanese, modern fantasy. (Usually, I don't read modern fantasy. This genre usually involves annoying main characters that are constantly in denial. However, I decided to pick it up..) Despite how modern fantasy isn't my favorite genre, I still picked it up anyway because, well, the synopsis sounded interesting. Come on, who could resist that synopsis?

The cover is absolutely gorgeous. G O R G E O U S. I love it. Undoubtedly it will attract many readers. 

Ink basically evolves around Katie and her life in school. She moved to Japan, her mom is dead, and she's living with her aunt who is trying to be a mom for her. Katie meets Tomohiro Yuu, and thinks he's the most conceited person on the planet. At first, anyway. And then she meets Takahashi Jun. And things escalate from there.

I really liked how the kami (gods) were linked into this whole thing. I mean, in the first/second chapter I knew things were going to take a whole dip in fantasy, and by page 50 I knew that *singing voice* somebody wasn't human..

Another thing I liked was all the Japanese culture linked in here. I used to be really fascinated with anime, and this sure seemed like it could be one if only someone started drawing it. I learned a few Japanese words and many cultural aspects! Just so you guys know. There's a glossary in the back. I didn't realize there was a glossary until I was almost done with the book. omg.

..And we circle back to the topic of our main characters.

Katie- She wasn't as annoying as I thought she was going to be, to be honest. I actually liked her a lot at some parts. I absolutely love her insolence. I like how she doesn't back down, and like Tomohiro said, she doesn't just let him push her away-- she pushes back. She's strong. But I have to say she was annoying at some parts. Their romance was so cuuuuuute.

Tomohiro- He's that guy that has a tough appearance and appears to be perfectly normal but has the most vivid backstory. Copper hair, hot face. Artist. (Only those who have read the book understand the emphasis.. But there's some emphasis for ya!) Cook. Fab kisser. Isn't that hot? I have to say he was the hottest fictional character I've read about in a while.

Takahashi- There's nothing I can really say about Jun, because, well, he was part of the.. plot twist. Except that he's the boy that always appears out of nowhere to save Katie's ass. And no one really knows that much about him. Well, because he goes to another school. Just gonna say that. Also, he's hot too.. (Blond highlights in his hair. Kendo champion. To me, hothothot.)

I stayed up late to finish the last few pages of this book. And I'm telling you right now, this is worth the read. Amanda Sun's writing is just absolutely awesome, and this is one hell of a good debut novel. Give it a try! I can't wait for the next installment to the Paper Gods series.


Quotes (there are plenty!)
