I received an ARC when I signed up and was selected to host the book tour. I made no guarantee of a favorable review and the opinions expressed here are my own.

This teen/young adult read is well written with ever developing characters and I enjoyed reading it. You'll find secret socieities, rituals, magic and a developing romance between my two favorite characters, Julia and Graham. I found it hard to put the book down. There are definitely some lose ends so I look forward to reading the next book.

This is one of my favorite books
I loved this book, it made me laugh and cry. It was easy to relate to the characters and to get in the story while forgetting everything else. I remember one time I was driving the bus while reading this book and I was so absorb in the story that I didn’t realized that I said “oh no!” Outloud until I notice that everyone around was staring at me lol. I would recommend this book to anyone that likes a good story with great characters.

This book was a selection for Book of the Month this April. I chose it because Charles Soule has written some of my favorite comics.
This book is about Will Dando, who receives several predictions from one dream. He posts select predictions on 'the Site' and he is known as 'The Oracle'. The government is after him, and religious sects are calling his the devil/blasphemer. It was impulsively readable.
But, it was just good. It wasn't great. Which, was a bummer. Because though it was readable, there was nothing new about it.

This book was highly recommended to me and I tried to like it, I really truly did, but there was something about it, that just didn't work for me. I am not sure what it was, but it was not my favorite book and I am not sure that I liked any of it. I am giving it a 5 because it wasn't horrible, it just wasn't for me. I think it should be given the chance, but know that it may not be the book for you.

I think my problem with this book was that I watched the movie first and I didn't realize how different the book was from the movie. This is my best friend's and my favorite movie and we have seen it at least half a dozen times. One of the reasons I loved the movie was for the humor and upbeat, inspirational tone that it had. The book really lacked that and that was something that really disappointed me. Probably if I had read it without those expectations, I may have enjoyed it more.

This book was one of my anticipated releases. I'm so glad I got to read it this year! It isn't one of my FAVORITE books but I did enjoy it and I decided to read more by this author like her other release From Twinkle, With Love which I also enjoyed. I really loved the format of that book. I admit by the end of the book most of the characters were getting on my nerves but by the end there was major character development so it was okay!
