The Naturals and Killer Instinct by Jennifer Lynn Barnes — 5 stars
I was in reading slump at the beginning of the year. This past month I was able to cure it by getting into Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ thriller series, The Naturals. I loved both books very much and I’m super excited for the third novel coming out this fall.
The Young Elites by Marie Lu — 4 stars
Marie Lu’s The Young Elites was pretty great, too. My only regret was that I read this book right in the middle of my reading slump so it was hard for me to get into at the beginning. But as soon as I got to the middle, I was sucked in and left heartbroken at the end.
Pretenders by Lisi Harrison — 2 stars
I also read Lisi Harrison’s Pretenders. My Junior High years basically consisted of reading only Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, Ally Carter, and Lisi Harrison. Yep, I’m not even joking a little bit. So of course I had to pick up Lisi Harrison’s newest series. I read the first book and will read the second. It’s definitely a little younger than what I read now, but I must satisfy my younger self by reading this new series.
Mr. Kiss and Tell by Rob Thomas — 4 stars
I read the second Veronica Mars novel as well. I marathoned through all three seasons last spring and fell in love with Veronica so when books were announced, of course I was going to buy and read them.
Cinder by Marissa Meyer — 5 stars
Lastly, I read Marissa Meyer’s Cinder! I loved this read so much and plan on finishing the series. I definitely suggest reading The Lunar Chronicles!
