Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated John Dies at the End in Books
Jul 12, 2018
This book was recommended to me by my barista and I'm so glad that read it. It was truly hilarious! I couldn't help but laugh when reading/listening to it.
First off, I normally don't truly laugh when reading a book but I found myself laughing (really laughing) throughout this book. This book was disgusting, horrifying, hilarious, and I would recommend it to anyone that likes something unique, and crass.
The characters are definitely interesting and I kept wondering what else could happen. The twists and turns were exhilarating and I felt like I was on a roller coaster that wanted to not only make you say "What the F***" but laugh while you were shooting down to your inevitable doom.
If you want something fun, unique, and a little taboo definitely read this!

Ugh - 3-4 stars. I love contemporary, etc. but I found the MC in this book to be a wee bit annoying. Yes, what they're doing is awesome because the boys are absolute assholes in this book, but at a certain point when your potential love interest acts like a jerk (somewhat) and you just whine about how sad you are about it.. no thank you. Still, the message was awesome - so applause - girls need to fight back, especially in some of those situations - female empowerment FTW!

Like a zombie devouring flesh, I devoured this horrifying book. As I read this well-written storyline full of blood, trailing intestines and graphic scenes, I found myself thoroughly immersed in the story; I could hear those terrifying moans and screams that came from the zombies, and I could smell the rotten, decaying scent in the air.
This heart-pounding edge of your seat read will keep you in its bloody grip from beginning to end, and I can't wait to get my hands on the next book.

Ready For Book Two
Can I start by asking, "When does the second book come out?! This retelling of King Midas surpassed all my wildest expectations and then some. This spin was written rather creatively and I found myself enjoying this adventure full of pirates, first loves and curses. I will tell you that I was shocked and caught off guard by some startling revelations and I eagerly await with anticipation for the next book. Kudos to this author's storytelling and spell weaving as I fell in love with the web she spun!

Jan 18, 2018
What a fantastic novel! It has been a long time since a book, much less a romance one, has so completely enthralled me. It was witty and believable and I found myself invested in the characters. Definitely not one to pass up if you prefer a good historical romance.
Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated Mercury Striking (Scorpius Syndrome, #1) in Books
Feb 13, 2018
Found it a little confusing in the beginning but soon got into it. I do enjoy Rebecca Zanetti's work, her characters are good and the description of post apocalyptic LA makes you feel as if your there. Roll on September for book 2 in The Scorpius Syndrome Series

Zuky the BookBum (15 KP) rated The Passenger in Books
Mar 15, 2018
Firstly I'd like to thanks Netgalley and Simon & Schuster for giving me the opportunity to read this book.
The Passenger is thrilling and exhilarating! With twists and turns around every corner, I can assure you, you will not be bored.
While this books plot is overused, Lutz did really well to add her own spark to it, making it unique and fast paced, exactly what I love in a book. Each character presented had their own story to tell and I'm happy to say I found none of them annoying or boring (maybe apart from Domenic's use of the word 'sweetheart' a lot).
Tanya/Nora/Debra's/whatever you want to call her's story is heartbreaking and challenging throughout. I tend to find women found in these predicaments (in books) do all the wrong things and only make their life more difficult, but Tanya does everything expertly and wonderfully. She's such a likeable character that you are backing her the whole way through, even at the times where her actions are questionable.
I will definitely recommend this to friends and family when it is published as I believe it's a fabulous fast paced thriller that thousands will enjoy.
