Top 4 Authors Challenge. Penny Reid: First Book Read, or How I Fell in Love with a Genius Writer
Many, many years ago, when I was but a wee lass… Where the hell did the Irish come from? I have no idea. And it was actually only three years ago, but it seems like a lifetime ago that I found a pot of gold in the form of a YA book titled Attraction by a new-to-me author, Penny Reid. Attraction is book one in the Laws of Chemistry trilogy. (Read review)
Review ♥ We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
I love a good mystery, and by good I mean one that truly makes me think. I’m one of those smarty-pants readers who frequently figures out the secret long before it’s divulged. I pride myself on seeing plot twists coming a mile away. I start a mystery by throwing down the gauntlet to the author: okay, surprise me. E. Lockhart picked up my challenge. We Were Liars tested my intellect, kept me guessing, and had me on the edge of my seat until the very end.
A Roomies Movie!
Roomies by Christina Lauren is headed to the big screen! I loved this marriage of convenience story about a talented subway musician with dreams of Broadway. One major obstacle? He’s an illegal immigrant from Ireland facing deportation. Read review here. The authors are writing the movie adaptation, so here’s hoping it will be true to the book.

Review: Ruthless King by Meghan March
Full disclosure: Captor/prisoner stories historically aren’t my thing. The fact that Ruthless King is book one in a trilogy gave me pause. Ultimately, I decided to give it a go (obviously), but I’m still not sure what to think about Meghan March’s foray into dark romance territory.
