The Brides of Rollrock Island by Margot Lanagan
Disturbing, depressing, horribly sad, but gorgeously written and so believable I wanted to visit Rollrock Island. Sort of.
Transparent by Natalie Whipple
I distinctly remember enjoying this book and the different "powers" people have in it. But for the life of me, I can't remember much of what actually happened :)
Earthbound by Aprilynne Pike
This book made me think "what is going on?" a few too many times. I'm pretty sure I ended up skimming the last half. Now I don't remember a thing about it.
Hero by Alethea Kontis
Love, love, love Saturday. She's such a cool heroine. Also, I love the fairy-tale mash-ups going on in this series.
Just One Day by Gayle Forman
Fascinating story, though I wanted to smack Lulu upside the head a number of times. The plot was a bit difficult for me to swallow, because it's something I'd NEVER do, but I have to give Forman props for wonderful writing and characters that kept me reading.
Allegiant by Veronica Roth
Despite many angry responses, I found the surprise ending rather believable for Tris. The rest of the story, however, I had some trouble swallowing. End of the Divergent series.
Blackout by Robison Wells
Blackout by Robison Wells
Another crazy adventure story, complete with x-men powers and cliff-hanger ending.
A wonderful and satisfying ending to one of my favorite fantasy series (and heroines) ever. Can we get more Elisa please?
Completely insane virtual reality plot with a surprising twist I never saw coming. Some parts a little too unbelievable with some writing that grated my nerves, but intriguing enough that I want more.
An interesting look at what happened to Willem over the course of a year. Made me dislike him slightly less :)
Flavia de Luce up to more antics at home, always with mad crime-solving skills up her sleeve.
Intense, interesting, and extremely well-written story about a serious lack of heroes in a world of superpowers. While I guessed some twists, others caught me by surprise.
Wonderful story of friendship and romance, with a heroine who sticks to her guns and seizes what she wants in a time when women didn't get to do that much.
Whew! I'm so relieved to be done with 2013 books!
If you buy through my Amazon linkage, I will get a very small percentage
