“In Time“ Review: An Intense Novela

Dystopian + Fiction + Young Adult

This book comes right after the first book in “The Darkest Minds” series, and I read it because I’m extremely dedicated to this series and need to read everything in it, in order.

“The Darkest Minds” Review: A 6 Star Read

Dystopian + Fiction + Romance + Young Adult

This book changed my life! I actually haven’t gone a single minute of a single day not thinking of this book since I picked it up. And believe it or not, it may be one of my new favourites! And that says a lot because it had high standards to beat.

“The Hunger Games” Review

Dystopian + Fiction + Romance + Young Adult

have always been scared to read the Hunger Games. Let me explain.
I watched the Hunger Games movies when I was 12, and being way too young and sensitive for that amount of violence and suspense, I was plagued with nightmares and a paranoia that followed me everywhere for months.

“The Goliath Code” Review:

Christian Literature + Dystopian + Fiction + Young Adult

This book really intrigued me. It is about the Rapture. If you do not know what that is, it is essentially the end of the world as described in the Bible, when all Christians are taken to heaven before chaos breaks out on Earth.
I have always loved dystopian novels, but I had never read one based on real biblical events.
