Warcross — Marie Lu (ARC Review)

"Do you remember one year when that player - Leeroy something - actually got drafted into the Stormchasers, even though he always just charged in and messed up his entire team's play? My God, he was terrible."

You read that right, my loves: Marie Lu references freaking Leeroy Jenkins in her writing. I mean, how could I give this book anything less than all the stars?

Sharing Sam — Katherine Applegate

Alison believes that everyone finds their "Mr./Mrs. Right" eventually, but until their times come, she and her best friend Isabella are focusing on their studies, their bright futures, and their families. Of course, a wrench gets thrown in that plan when Alison's "Mr. Right" turns out to be the motorcycle-riding new kid at school that Izzy is crushing on... and the plan is completely thrown out the window when Izzy tells Alison she's been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.

In a last-ditch attempt to make her best friend's last days as joyful as she can, Alison begs Sam to leave her behind and to spend time with Isabella, just until everything is over. Romantic feelings are unpredictable things, though, and aren't meant to be toyed with.

The “Who I Am” Tag!

I saw this tag over at Louise Loves Books, and I personally love getting to know my fellow bloggers in totally non-book-related ways. Of course, I love learning about you guys' likes and dislikes in the literary world, but it's also so much fun to get to know who you guys are as people! The blogger behind the blog, if you will.
