Tea Talk: The Hype Monster

Tea Talk posts give me a chance to have conversations with you guys and I love these posts. Thank you for you guys who comment and talk to me about the topic of the week. This Weeks Topic: Does the hype monster get to you, and make books less enjoyable because your expectations are too high? How do you keep it from getting the best of you?   I will be the first to say that yes the hype monster gets me about 80% of the time. I hate it and I don't know how to stop it. I enjoy looking at other blogs and normally when a new book comes out the book is reviewed by many bloggers at the same time. When they ALL rave and the goodread rating is super high I cant help but think "okay I need to clean my schedule for the weekend because I have to read this amazing book." And then I will read the book and really not get into it because my expectations were too high. I know that it is very likely that I will not enjoy the book with such expectations but I cant make myself sto...

Review: Poison Princess

Title: Poison Princess Series: The Arcana Chronicles #1 Author: Kresley Cole Genre: Ya Apocalyptic, Fantasy/Paranormal Goodreads Overall Rating: 4.17 Pages: 369 Published: October 2nd 2012 by Simon & Schuster My Rating: 4/5 Stars      In A Nut Shell This book is full of creative and original fantasy/paranormal aspects that I LOVED. I found this book to be different than most books I have read before, but sadly it had one downfall that I just could not get past and made my rating flip flop between 3.5 and 4 stars. I normally enjoy romances, but this book had such potential to be beyond original and I felt like the love interest over shadowed the main story line. I felt like the romance was more of just sexual tension between a confused girl and a obsessive boy that was unstable even before the apocalypse. He also wants in Evie's pants so bad he cant stand it. We get a fantastic play on tarot cards bein...

Review: World After by Susan Ee

Title: World After Series: Penryn & the End of Days #2 Author: Susan Ee Genre: YA Apocalyptic Goodreads Rating:  4.29   Pages: 438 Published:  November 21st 2013 by Hodder & Stoughton   My Rating: 5/5 Stars      In A Nut Shell This sequel was AMAZING I couldn't put it down. I have nothing bad to say about this book. If you are worried about this book not being as good as the first one do not worry! I was blown away by all the dark twists and turns this book took. Penryn Steps up her game and some how becomes even more fierce in this book. We get to learn more about Raffe's history as well as other characters> No rock is left uncovered in this sequel and it is so refreshing. The questions we had at the end of Angelfall were answered, and Ee gave us more questions to ponder over while waiting for the next and final book. I am beyond shocked with how creative Susan...
