Can't Stop Gushing About...

As I've mentioned before, sometimes Nic and I really like a meme and sometimes we get bored with it and it doesn't last long... more importantly we LOVE trying out new memes. SO, we came up with a new meme that we are going to try out for a while called Can't Stop Gushing About... in which we will talk about a book that has been out for a while that we can't stop thinking about, want to read again, or loved so much that we want everyone else to know how great it is. I'm sure we will also be using Not book things on occasion too, like movies or music, or hey maybe photography. This week I'll be talking about a series that I read years ago... but I'm still madly in love with it, and it's still arguably my favorite series of all time.... 


Can't Stop Gushing About... 


The Gemma Doyle Trilogy by Libba Bray


I think Libba Bray is a genius. I love the way that she blends historical fiction and fantasy and horror into one (well 3) beautiful story. I love the characters and how real they feel. Most of all, I love that I never saw any of the twists coming. I just love this series. I highly recommend it.

Agreed! This book rocked my world. They are actually what pulled me into the YA genre once upon a year ago in college. They had everything I love in books and more. Been a die hard Libba fan ever since!

I mean, seriously die hard. I could barely speak two words to her when I meet her. My husband talked loads to her though. He thinks she one of the funniest people on the planet. (He isn't wrong about this either)

Yup, this series is what dragged me into YA too. I wish I could meet her she is so funny and smart. I just adore her. She's my favorite author.
