The Violet Awakening| Book Review

Angela Dawson thought she had left the white walls of The Facility behind her for good, but the combination of a suspicious earthquake and a picture of a familiar face forces her to realize that she was mistaken.

A new darkness within the underground-prison beckons her return, and leads to a decision no person should ever have to make. Weighing the value of revenge against the value of life, Angie has no choice but to accept that she may not be the kind of person she’d thought she was.

An encroaching threat makes the prospect of war all too real, and the sudden urgency to locate the others from her generation leaves Angie with an unnerving realization; The Elementums may have more dangerous things to worry about than The Destructive Ones.

Through secrets, deceit, and loss, Angie is left with only a dream and the words of a fallen friend to guide her; Be wary of the Violets. – Goodreads Description

How is it possible that this book is even better than the first one? I’m impressed with the wit, the snarky jokes, the fast-paced writing, the suspense, and plot twists- all so good! Especially the character development,

November: Reading Month of Shame

After I filmed this, I realized that it might seem like I am shaming other people who don’t read a ton. Please don’t think that! I’m just disappointed in myself for not reaching my reading goal.
If your reading goal is 2 books per month, then that is awesome!
I would NEVER want to hurt anyone’s feelings or make them feel that their reading goals are inferior in some way.

Also, I’m being a bit facetious when I say November is the “month of shame” or I say that my reading was “pathetic”. I mean that it is not the usual reading standard that I have for myself, NOT for others.
Everybody has their own reading pace and style, and some have more free time in their day to dedicate to reading. We can’t all read the same amount of books; that would be ridiculous! haha!
I love all my dear bookish friends, so please know that I meant no harm in this vid.
God Bless!

Sarah, a highschool student, is hit by a car on her way to poetry class. In her pocket is a poem to Mr. Haddings, her poetry teacher, whom she is crushing on. When Mr. Haddings accidentally hits his student while driving to work, he has to decide if he will acknowledge his growing attraction to her or continue to act professionally as he has been doing all year.

What first drew me to this book is the lovely cover, so beautiful and hinting about the romantic tragedy within.
This book was okay, not amazing though. It’s told from Continue reading →
