I first heard of Daniel José Older when I got Half-Resurrection Blues in my Quarterly Box from Book Riot. I still haven’t read that one. But when I heard someone talk about his YA book, Shadowshaper, at a time when I was just starting to get into urban fantasy. Let’s just say it was a … More Shadowhouse Fall (Shadowshapers #2) | Sticky Note Reviews
I bought Akata Witch for my wife for our first Christmas together. She was looking for another science fiction author she could love similar to the way she loves Octavia Butler. In my searching, Nnedi Okorafor’s name came up, and we’ve been fans ever since. Akata Warrior is the second book in the series, and … More Akata Warrior | Sticky Note Reviews

This one took me a long time to read. I bought the audio, but don’t like listening to an audio if I don’t also have the print text (I like to go back and forth). I had the book on hold at the library. Got it, then had to return it when we went on … More Strange the Dreamer | Sticky Note Reviews

Timekeeper by Tara Sim. What it’s about (from Goodreads): Two o’clock was missing. In an alternate Victorian world … More Recently Added [4]
I picked up An Ember in the Ashes after seeing a blog post roundup of authors’ tweets about the series. Everyone had such wonderful things to say about it that I had to check it out for myself.

Show and Prove by Sofia Quintero was a book that intrigued me on a whim. It was face out at Barnes & Noble and I was trying to decide between it and Noble Warrior by Alan Lawrence Sitomer for my impulse buy that day.

I will read anything that Neal Shusterman writes. I don’t know if you knew that about me as a reader. So when I saw Challenger Deep at the library, as I mentioned a few days ago, I absolutely had to get it. It was not an easy read, but I’m glad I had the opportunity … More Sticky Note Reviews: Challenger Deep and The Girl at Midnight
