Book reviews: trash, classics, good and bad

REVIEW: A Curse So Dark and Lonely (A Curse So Dark and Lonely #1) by Brigid Kemmerer

Posted on February 20, 2019February 20, 2019 by Alyssa Grace

I hope the three main characters develop somewhat in the sequel, because I can't see anyone choosing to subject themselves to several books of Harper, Rhen and Grey as they currently are.

REVIEW: Stronger, Faster, and More Beautiful by Arwen Elys Dayton

Posted on January 28, 2019 by Alyssa Grace

At its best, Stronger, Faster, and More Beautiful is a cross between This Mortal Coil and Black Mirror. Maybe it fails to deliver on a setup worthy of a five-star read, but that doesn't negate its many thought-provoking qualities.

REVIEW: The Twisted Tree by Rachel Burge

Posted on January 26, 2019January 26, 2019 by Alyssa Grace

Atmospheric, creepy and ultimately predictable, The Twisted Tree is like microwave mac and cheese--it does the trick just as you know it will, but it's not going to yield anything new.

REVIEW: Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson

Posted on January 16, 2019January 16, 2019 by Alyssa Grace

Despite the problems that prevented me from fully falling in love with Warbreaker as I did with Skyward, this was a heartwarming story with good, clean banter, effective prose, and a few slick twists that made me ashamed of relying on first impressions.

Posted on January 12, 2019 by Alyssa Grace

You must be strong enough to strike and strike and strike again without tiring.
