What it says on Goodreads:
“Baron Ford, he says and pauses to pick apart my expression, attempting to read how familiar I am with that name. I nod stiffly to give no indication I know exactly, who that is. I’m shocked to hear that name in this setting, at this stage of my life, the one far away from Cambridge, Massachusetts over five years later.” 

Review: The Alchemy of Forever

The Alchemy of Forever by Avery Williams

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I liked this book. It was a good story with a great cliffhanger at the end. Can't wait to read the next book (if there's going to be one :)). I really like Serafina, she's a great character. Kailey has an amazing family and friends and Cyrus is a great villain. I loved the Noah and Kailey/Serafina dynamics. I thought it was an amazing read with a unique look on being immortal. I really want to know what happens next so I hope I can get my hands on the next book as soon as possible ^^

Review: Crescendo

Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



It took me a while to get into the book. But about a third into the story it started to get better and really absorb me. The further I got the harder it became to put the book down. I liked the story, but I wanted more Patch ... I don't really like the whole downer that was put on Patch and Nora's relationship. I know, relationships have ups and downs in real life to, but I don't like reading about them :)
I liked the new characters that were introduced and enjoyed finding out more about the past. It explains a few things and it gives a nice twist to the story.
The ending keeps me wanting more, the perfect clifhanger. I can't wait to get my hands on Silence and find out how it all continues ^^

Review: Linger

Linger by Maggie Stiefvater

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This was a great book. I loved that we didn't just get Sam and Grace but also other characters. I'm glad there was this plot-twist even-though it started out a bit more of the same. Luckily there are the new characters that open-up a few new story-lines. I'm really looking forward to read Forever! I really like Sam and I want to see where the Isabel story-line will go. She's become a very interesting person and I really want to find out what goes on inside her head.

Review: The Pledge

The Pledge by Kimberly Derting

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I loved this book! The story was different and amazing. I loved the main character. She comes across weak sometimes, but when it comes to her friends and family she will do anything!
The setting was fun and a bit confusing. I kept picturing a city in during the middle ages, but than the electrical stuff would get mixed in the story so I needed to adjust my perspective each time.
It fun to follow from different character POV ... It's nice to not always having to follow the main character.

Review: Still Waters

Still Waters by Emma Carlson Berne

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I liked this book. It was different than the stuff I usually read. It had the required amount of romance (but not the tell-him-I-love-him-after-5-minutes kind) that was laced with a lot of suspence. I guess the events in this book are the ultimate test for true love. I don't know how I would deal with those, but I think Hanna handled them very well. She's a great character and I'd liked to read more about her. Colin seems like a great boyfriend but further in the story it's clear that he's got a bit of bagage than you expected at the beginning of the book. Laurie is an amazing friend who's always there for Hanna and David seems like the cutest little brother. Hanna's mom is very trusting though, I don't think my parents would have bought that story without talking to my employer first.
All in all it was a great story and it leaves me wanting more.

Review: Angel

Angel by L.A. Weatherly

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This was a nice story. It's an original twist on the angel-aspect. There was action, betrayal, road-trips, love and choices to be made. Although I liked the story over-all, the love parts were a bit to soppy for me. It fits in the story so I didn't bother me that much but it got a bit long-winded in some places because of that.
I liked the points of view switching, although it wasn't always immediately clear for me who's point of view I was reading :)
I liked this book and I want to know how it's going to continue. Book 2 will definitely be on my TBR-list.

Review: Last Breath

Last Breath by Rachel Caine

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I love love love this series! Rachel Caine is an amazing author and she hasn't disappointed me yet.
The twist she is putting to the series through this book is great! I like how you get all those different points of view. I really do't know how to explain what I thought about the book without putting in a million spoilers, but wow! I loved it and I can't wait to read what Rachel made of the twelfth book! I bet it's going to be just as amazing as the first eleven ^^

Review: Halo

Halo by Alexandra Adornetto

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I really liked this book! It kept my attention from beginning to end.
Some parts seemed really familiar which made me wonder if I already read the book, but the following scene made it clear that I hadn't.
Bethany is a great character. She isn't some helpless girl, but she knows she can't handle the whole world on her own. Her brother and sister are typical angels, which I love. It's really becoming one of my favourite creatures to read about :)
Xavier is the perfect boyfriend with that little bit of jealousy which makes him not too perfect to believe.
Jake is the perfect villain. He's dark but has kind of romantic side which makes it easy to blend in with the unsuspecting town.
The story is a nice blend of romance, action and drama which results in a great and compelling read.
