Souls Squared: A Review of Two Books
Last week I was looking for good recommendations for girly fantasy titles not involving vampires or fairies.

Hell Week (Maggie Quinn: Girl vs. Evil)
by Rosemary Clement-Moore
First, I know that I’ve posted about how uber-excited I was to read Hunger Games and now here I am obviously having read something instead of Hunger Games. I’ve had a very stressful last couple of weeks and needed something lighter to read. I want to be in a fully engaged frame of [...]
