Midnight Thief Review

368 pages Growing up on Forge’s streets has taught Kyra how to stretch a coin. And when that’s not enough, her uncanny ability to scale walls and bypass guards helps her take what she needs. But when the leader of the Assassins Guild offers Kyra a lucrative job, she hesitates. She knows how to get by on her own, and she’s not sure she wants to play by his rules. But he’s persistent—and darkly attractive—and Kyra can’t quite resist his pull. Tristam...

Movie Monday: Hercules

Technically, Hercules isn't a movie based on a book. However, Hercules is a part of Greek mythology, which before coming to the big screen, is a story that reaches far back into the annals of time. Dwayne Johnson plays Hercules and I'm quite interested to see how his acting skills portray the legendary name. This modern day retelling of Hercules opens this Friday so grab some popcorn and check it out! ...

BEA 2014 with Ms Book Queen

Sadly this year Ms Book Queen was only able to attend one day of Book Expo America, but what an enjoyable day that was! Once again it was a busy day as per usual, visiting the different booths and meeting authors. Lines were long to get autographs from some particularly notable authors such as Stan Lee and Scott Westerfield to name a few. McGraw Hill once again stole the show with their hit accessory giveaway "The Big Red Bag" which was immensely...

Movie Monday: Veronica Mars

Veronica Mars was a show that I absolutely loved. I truly wish there were more seasons, so I am glad that they have rebooted this show into a movie! This movie is basically about a high school reunion Veronica comes back in town for although she's also back to solve another mystery. All of her friends and some enemies are back to help her like in the good old days. If you've never seen Veronica Mars go watch all of the seasons before this movie is released on Friday! Go now...

Movie Monday: 300 Rise of an Empire

More than likely everyone reading this post has seen 300. While an excellent movie, it did have a pretty sad ending. This sequel, titled 300: Rise of an Empire, continues the battle and shows the full force of Greek soldiers pitted against the Persian army. This movie looks action-filled so I'm excited to check it out. It comes out this week, March 7th, so if you haven't seen the original 300 make sure to check that out first! ...

Killer Frost Review

384 pages Release date: February 25th, 2014 I’ve battled the Reapers of Chaos before–and survived. But this time I have a Bad, Bad Feeling it’s going to be a fight to the death … most likely mine. Yeah, I’ve got my psychometry magic, my talking sword, Vic–and even the most dangerous Spartan on campus at my side, in Logan freaking Quinn, but I’m no match for Loki, the evil Norse god of chaos. I may be Nike’s Champion, but at heart, I’m still just...
