About Julia
Hi everyone! This is Julia of
The Broke and the Bookish, formerly blogging on my own at
The Competitive Bibliomaniac.
I read mostly historical romance, but can often be found reviewing paranormal romance, young adult books (mostly distopian/fantasy), fantasy/sci-fi, classics,
and the occasional non-fiction book about languages.
Feel free to follow and reblog!

I don't know if it deserved as much as of the hype that it got. Or maybe I was lost inside the hype.
That said I liked the book, but didn't love it. I didn't hate it either. It just dragged a bit in the second half. The premise and the story itself is awesome though.
