Losers Take All put a huge smile on my face. It was funny, heartwarming, different, and full of love-ably quirky characters. At Jack’s school, they are sports OBSESSED.

{Review} Ash & Bramble by Sarah Prineas @sprineas @harperteen

{Review} The Shadow Behind the Stars by @RebeccaHahnbook
The Shadow Behind the Stars by Rebecca Hahn is a young adult mythology book unlike any other mythology story I have read in the young adult world. It read more like a traditional Greek tale.
