I vaguely recall seeing FALSE HEARTS around when it came out last year, but I wrote it off b/c conjoined twins—just one of those things I have no patience for. If I hadn’t read and enjoyed Shattered Minds, I doubt I’d have ever picked this one up. But I did, so here we are. And […]
I love YA fantasy. I don’t know why, I just do. That being said, in recent years, I’ve become a bit gun-shy, preferring to rerereread old favorites rather than taking a chance on a new author. I guess I should say I love good YA fantasy. And sadly, these days, most of it is crap: […]

Bookfessional: Breaking the Funk If you couldn’t already tell based on my surplus of Bookfessionals over the last couple of weeks, I’m battling my annual mid-year(ish) book funk.
