REVIEW: Vanished by E.E. Cooper

JiaC- Reviewsfemale friendship / Harper Collins / infidelity / LGBTQIA+ / missing persons / Suicide / Young-Adult1 Comments

Dear Ms. Cooper, There are books whose endings leave you breathless with their brilliance. There are books whose endings make you nod and say that was decent. And then there are books whose endings make you wonder what the heck did you just read. I’m sorry to say Vanished belongs ... more >

REVIEW: An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

JiaB- ReviewsFantasy / Penguin Random House / Young-Adult2 Comments

Dear Ms. Tahir, It’s been a while since I’ve seen a book with this much buzz and advanced publicity. There have been lots of comparisons already. Hunger Games and Game of Thrones pop up a lot. I do find comparisons useful — I sometimes use them in my own reviews ... more >
