Mid-Fall Mini Reviews (Time for Me to Catch Up!)


As you guys have probably noticed, I have been a bit more than lax not only in writing book reviews, but in reading as well. Fall is the season of books with cider, yes, but it also happens to be the time of year that television shows and their new seasons come out, and guess which one I was having the more fun with? And then of course there is school and all of its dreaded elements, which I do not even want to get in to. Nevertheless, it is Thanksgiving break, and so I can finally make time for blogging again (I say make time because I am supposed to be starting/finishing round two of college applications...).

One of my options at this point would be to write a review for every book I have read since September, but considering how little I actually remember of those books, I decided instead to compile an extra short list of extra mini reviews on the books that stick out in my memory. Hopefully my single sentences are enough to convey my feelings on each book!



Did any of my comments get you thinking "what is WRONG with Preethi, she is totally wrong about that book!!"? If so, PLEASE do tell! Also, any thoughts you happened to actually agree with?

Suspicion- Oh no!!! I had such high hopes for this one... :( I like to be surprised, so I don't like it when books are predictable... Sorry you didn't like the book.
Talon- I've heard some not so great things about this one but I still wanna try it and hope that I like it. Glad you liked the book, though.

Seems like you had a pretty good last few reads but they weren't ERMAGAWD I LOVE MY BOOKS kind of reads. Hope your next reads are AWESOME!!! :D
Great Post!

I know, Suspicion seemed like the perfect read until I got halfway through the book and finally had to admit that nothing was really happening much. I can however say that there was this one really weird, unlikely twist at the end haha, so you may or may not want to try out the book! And I hope you like Talon once you read it! I may have to read the next book in the series if only to hold the gorgeous cover in my hands XD

I definitely wish I had more ERMAGAWD I LOVE MY BOOKS reads too :/ Fortunately, the book I'm currently reading, The Winner's Crime, fits perfectly into that category! I seriously have to recommend you read The Winner's Curse if you haven't already. Thanks for stopping by!

Oh man, I've been catching up with too many shows than reading, haha. I've been on the same book for 5 days and only got to 180 pages, because Hawaii 5-0 and Haven and NCIS: LA and Once Upon a Time and too many others to count. ;) I haven't seen many favourable reviews for Suspicion yet and I'm so disappointed, THE COVER IS GORGEOUS. But then again, we know how that goes. I did enjoy her first book though, so shame. :( I still need to get to Talon, it's Julie Kagawa, I NEED to. ;)
