While my expectations were high going into this book, I was rather disappointed. I found a lot of myself in Wren, especially when it came to the empathy of others, but there was something about her character that lacked a compelling need to care about her outcome. Also, a lot of medical terminology is used, […]

[Gabrielle’s Reviews]: The Bright & The Pale
Going into reading this book, I had pretty neutral expectations. As an avid YA reader, it takes a lot for me to be surprised with books in the genre. I had hopes that something crazy and different and unexpected would happen as I read, and to be honest I was a little disappointed. For about […]
