| British, Fiction

I bought Bad Friends by Claire Seeber somehow thinking it was YA. I had even placed it on my YA-shelf, and when I picked it up last week to read, I was also sure it was YA. Until a few pages in when the drinks began to flow and the cigarettes were smoked. Then I […]

While I Live is the first book in the Ellie Chronicles which is sort of a sequel to John Marsden’s Tomorrow-series (the link is for my review of the first book in the Tomorrow-series).

Wicked Prey by John Sandford is book # 19 in the Lucas Davenport series, which I can truthfully say is a very well established series. The books in the series, of which I have read all, is generally of a high quality, but in my opinion some of the books have a much stronger storyline […]
