Glass Sword

Glass Sword

 

Victoria Aveyard

 

 

(2.75)

 



I'm not sure... it's just not holding my interest. Too much repetition that lead to a lengthy book and characters that just fall flat.

 

Triangle of Love

Triangle of Love

 

Robert Sternberg

 

 

(3.5)

Over the years, I have taken a ridiculous amount of Psychology courses (it being my major) and have always been fascinated by different theories, but this one caught my attention almost immediately during one of my Social Psychology courses in undergraduate. We didn't even go through the theory in depth, my professor just mentioned it in passing talking about the Psychology of Love and the current research. I fell in love with the theory of love.

 

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

 

Stieg Larsson

 

 

(3.5)

 

I've had this one on my shelf for a while, but for some reason I could never bring myself to pick it up. I think it was because this book is so widely known and affiliated with rape, and I wasn't sure if I could handle it. But I did, and it was interesting.

 

Ruin and Rising

Ruin and Rising

 

Leigh Bardugo

 

 

Once again, I'm conflicted.

 

I feel like I would have liked the story more if the ending were different, or even if the main battle/point of conflict lasted more than 3 pages.

 





Clockwork Prince

Clockwork Prince

 

Cassandra Clare

 

 

More like 2.5

 

I didn't like this as much as the first installment, but I think that can be attributed to either the time period/society rules or to the BLARINGLY obvious love triangle.

 

American Gods

American Gods

 

Neil Gaiman

 

 

I think I was just expecting too much of this one.

 

Vicious

Vicious

 

V. E. Schwab

 

 

Finally! A Schwab book I can get behind. I heard good things about the villains and good vs. evil of this book, which is exactly what I was looking for and I was happy with the plot and characters.
