And I love YA fantasy; it will always have a place in my heart. But … Continue reading Book Review: The Final Empire (Mistborn #1)
Book Title: The Sun Is Also A Star (Amazon, Goodreads) Author: Nicola Yoon Genre: Contemporary YA My Rating: 4 / 5 stars This was an entirely readable and enjoyable contemporary YA romance.
