Ashvini:
Loot is an amazing book. When I think of Jude Watson I think of her action-packed books in the 39 Clues series.  I absolutely loved those books. Loot was just as electrifying but better.
I just want to say that this book is very fast paced. One idea doesn't last too long, everything moves along as the numbers on pages go along. I felt that there was never a time when I had to skim through paragraphs to move on to the next idea.
However, I do want to mention that sometimes when I stopped at a chapter ending with more thoughts rather than action, I wasn't exactly in a hurry to pick the book up again. Don’t get me wrong, I didn't find the thoughts boring; I just was more into the operational chapters. The thought parts of the book didn't last long though.
Overall, I really liked the book and would totally recommend this book to anyone who reads the 39 Clues, or anyone who just likes a con artist, thief-style book. 


Emma:
I thought that this book was great. I loved the heists that March, Jules, Izzy and Darius just happen to pull off. It was really clever the way they planned them like the pigeon drop.
The book took unexpected twists and turns. The ending was completely unexpected. For those of you who have not read this book yet I suggest that you do. Trust me even though the chapters are short (one to five pages) almost every chapter leaves you wanting to read more. There were some parts that I found a little dry at times but other than that you should totally give this book a shot.

The Dogs - Allan Stratton.

OMG guys! We've missed you! We've literally been drowning in homework these past few months and just had to give the reviewing and blogging a break. We are sincerely sorry for our sudden absence. However, it's summer now, so you can expect tons of new posts in the next little while... :) Photo Source Link: Emma: I had a great time reading The Dogs. First, I have to say that I loved the cover and how it showed the books scary qualities. I just love the look of that blood splattered title. I think that it drew me to the book more than the summary which did not captivate my attention nearly as much as I think it could have. If you are not a fan of scary books this book might not be your forté, but if you do enjoy scary books you are in for a treat. The book was also sprinkled with a little mystery throughout that really made you theorize all of the possible directions that the story could go in. I loved how Cameron (the main character) had to piece together w...

Wrapping Up Summer TBR.

Hello Everyone, As we bask in the last month of summer and all it’s glory, as the season comes to a close actually; we’re still holding onto some really amazing and “summery” novels in our TBR. So, as, booklovers it is our faithful duty to...READ THEM ASAP! Like, now. Before summer ends (or attempt to). So, the following novels, as requested by a wonderful reader, are 5 reads that are most definitely to be gobbled up by us before the end of the season. We have each selected two books that we would love to indulge in, regardless of whether or not the other has ANY interest for us to read it, and one that we both mutually MUST agree on. A total of five "summery" books shall be read. An updated post with mini reviews on each of the books shall come soon...wink, wink!                        Ashvini’s Pick: Until Friday Night - Abby Glines.

The Bookmark Debate - #SheSaysSheSays

Hello Everyone,  Welcome to another very interesting edition of SheSaysSheSays...our little opinionated series where we input on all things bookish! Last segment, reviewers, Emma and Ashvini, both dished their two cents on the subject of ratings and their validity in the book-review-o-sphere! (We were incredibly delighted at your positive response and feedback, by the way, thank you for it all.) So this week were back at it again with some...bookmarks! Whoop-whoop! Today we're taking a slightly more comical approach on the series, by discussing the use of bookmarks and our personal responses and preferences with regards to them So, let's get on into it! Photo Source Link Ashvin i: Right off the bat, I’ve ought to admit; I don’t use bookmarks…or any sort of page marker, really with physical reads. Aside from being entranced by the allure of their cute paper patterns at bookstores, none of my page markers have ever been put to good use. Few have been ta...
