The Book of Cold Cases by Simone St. James {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] I can’t tell you how excited I was to receive The Book of Cold Cases by Simone St. James in my Once Upon a Book Club adult box. This is the box that made me dive into the book subscription service with the theme of Unsolved Mysteries. I’ve been meaning to read Simone St.…

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] My reading slump in March was awful. I owned both COYER book club book picks and had every intention of reading them both. I barely got in The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab before book club. There is so much to unpack here. It took me a really long time to…

Daimon by Jennifer Armentrout {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] Daimon by Jennifer L. Armentrout is a prequel to Half-Blood. Half-Blood was a September COYER book club read. I didn’t quite finish Half-Blood before book club. I was a little over halfway into it and really struggling with Alex as a character. She seemed way to obnoxious and purposely stupid. Book club mentioned some…

Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] As it seems with most of the books I read anymore Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse was a COYER book club pick for November. Thankfully when it was picked it was on sale. Honestly I think I picked up Trail of Lightning at the wrong time. There was just too much going on…

Half-Blood by Jennifer Armentrout {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout was picked as one of the COYER book club selections for September. It’s been on my TBR for awhile so it seemed like a good time to read it. I’ve never read an Armentrout novel before. I really struggled with Half-Blood in the beginning. It was a very typical…

Of Blood and Bone by Nora Roberts *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I’ve had Of Blood and Bone by Nora Roberts since the day it was released. I’m not sure why I always put off reading Nora Roberts. There’s a reason why the woman has sold millions of books! I forgot how much I enjoyed Year One. I think it is the first dystopian adult novel…

The Shadow Cabinet by Maureen Johnson *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I have really mixed feelings on The Shadow Cabinet by Maureen Johnson. I really thought this was a trilogy and I’d be wrapping a series. Not only is this not a trilogy but it has the typical Maureen Johnson cliffhanger ending. In a way this sort of set me up for failure but it…

The Madness Underneath by Maureen Johnson *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] If it’s possible I think I liked this The Madness Underneath by Maureen Johnson better than the The Name of the Star! I decided that I wanted to finish this series before moving on with the Truly Devious series and I’m really happy with my decision! Johnson really expands on the possibilities of the…

Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] With October around the corner I wanted to start getting into some of my spooky reads in my TBR. Nothing sounded spookier than Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake. Cas was a great main character. It was nice to see a male protagonist. We don’t get too many of them. I really enjoyed…

The Uninvited by Heather Graham *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I was in the mood for a ghost story so I picked up The Uninvited by Heather Graham. Graham’s Krewe of Hunter series is my go to when I need a paranormal read. Generally they are pretty light reads and the ghost aspect of the book is always satisfying. Part of the reason I…
