The Reader's Antidote: Review Archive

Hello there! My name is Nicole and I review books! My primary genre is young adult, and of course I LOVE reading. In fact, the main reason I started this blog is to share my journey of ridding my shelves of unread books, because it is seriously overflowing. And I just keep buying more! I'm also a writer with the aspirations of publishing my book in the near future, so look for updates on my progress with that as well. If this sounds like a place you want to hang out and talk books, then climb aboard and take a bite of the apple! VIEW MY COMPLETE PROFILE

Upcoming Antidotes

Pivot Point

by Kasie West

Wow what an amazing debut! It was not that heavy until it needed to be, I had no idea who the villain was (more like there was more than just one or even two!), and it was also funny. Addie was an amazing character. Full review to come.

The Golden Lily

The Golden Lily

by Richelle Mead

ADRIAN!!!!! Le sigh Sydney is way too stubborn and naive, but the fact that she's flawed makes her a likable character. So glad the third one is coming out in like a week. Full review to come!

Natural Born Angel

Natural Born Angel

by Scott Speer

3.5/5 it wasn't a filler book but I just didn't love it nearly as much as the first one. And that ending! Not cool. Full review soon.

Immortal City

by Scott Speer

4.5/5

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

by Jennifer E. Smith

A cute, short, enjoyable story. Some heavy topics were addressed but nothing too serious happened. Kinda wish there had been more kissing though... Full review to come.

Bloodlines

by Richelle Mead

4.5/5 Not as good as the Vampire Academy books, but that's because Sydney didn't get enough romance for my taste... But I hear there's more in Golden Lily. Full review to come.

MILA 2.0

by Debra Driza

This is going to sound crazy, but I'm really suspicious of Hunter. Just putting it out there... Interesting concept, but I feel like it could have been better. Full review to come.

Fireblood

by Trisha Wolfe

4.5/5 Was not expecting the awesomeness of this book! Review to come :)

Black City

by Elizabeth Richards

So amazing! I freely admit that I cried. Full review to come.

5 POISON APPLES

AMAZING! This one is made of awesomesauce & it was just perfect! Seriously, GO OUT AND BUY IT, like now!!!

4 POISON APPLES

Still pretty amazing! It had a great plot & there was probably a swoon-worthy boy involved... Still recommend buying this if it sounds like your cup of tea!

3 POISON APPLES

This one was still good, but definitely could have been better. Mostly minor things to change. I will continue a series from this point and above. Probably borrow this one from the library or a book friend.

2 POISON APPLES

This just wasn't for me. I wanted to like it but... [insert constructive criticism and ranting]. Definitely recommend borrowing this one!

1 POISON APPLE

Either DNF (did not finish) or it caused me physical pain to do so. This only happens in rare cases, so BEWARE!! I don't recommend you find any means of getting your hands on this book!
