House of Night: Untamed Chapter 16 Zoey and Stevie Rae are finally reunited BFFs! Which means it’s time for them to slut-shame Aphrodite: “Darius said he’d escort me and Aphrodite.

Buck Has Father Issues, Rayford Has Heavenly Father Issues: Left Behind Chapter 6
It’s not always easy to title these posts, you know. Left Behind: Chapter 6 Rayford, like many of us having spent this much time with his story, decides he needs a drink. We also get a charming little backstory that really highlights the very unclear morality that this Christian novel is preaching: “That’s dishonest,” Rayford […]

Zoey’s Gut Moves the Plot Forward Again. And Aphrodite Gets a Cat: Untamed Chapter 17
We left off during a tense scene where Zoey confronts Stevie Rae about possibly eating pizza delivery guys. Stevie Rae admits to the far more shocking crime of pizza stealing, and Zoey realizes that they need to tell the school about the red fledglings so they can legally eat pizza. Also so they can stop […]

Heath Tells Zoey She’s Awful And It’s Amazing: House of Night Untamed Chapter 18
I know, I know. Every time Heath comes back into the world of House of Night, it’s a double-edged sword. I would argue he’s the books’ worst-written character (which is saying something, given the competition for that particular distinction) but sometimes he crosses the line into so-bad-it’s-hilarious territory. This time is – weirdly – neither of those. It’s […]

The Lazy Reader’s Guide: January 18- January 22, 2016
Left Behind Basically, we get a long-winded summary on the world currencies and how, in a shocking twist of fate, a powerful group of rich men make all the world decisions. It hits Ray that he’s happy his daughter is still alive. Quite frankly, you didn’t really miss much else but here are some tidbits: […]

Forget How Bad the Plot is, This Chapter Features a Whole Conversation About Aliens…:Left Behind Chapter 7
Why, Left Behind, why? Left Behind Chapter 7 So Buck has found someone to fly him around, yay. We can all rest easy. That someone is another boring human being who was left behind on this planet because Jesus basically wanted as few snoozefests in heaven as possible. Ken Ritz, picks Buck up and they discuss the logistics […]

New and Improved Boy Drama, Featuring Erik Night (Again)! LIMITED TIME ONLY SPECIAL: Untamed Chapter 19
After Heath walks out of Zoey’s life (before he inevitably walks back into it either later in this book or in future instalments), Aphrodite and Zoey head back to the car. The Casts display their comedy chops by having Darius jump out of the car and ask where the danger is. Oh Darius, love is […]

Aphrodite Has A New Plot Device- I Mean Vision: House of Night Untamed Chapter 20
I love the new Justin Bieber song. I understand if you can’t read my opinions about whether things are good or bad anymore. House of Night: Untamed Chapter 20 Last chapter, Erik Night used his very first drama class as a teacher to publicly humiliate, slut shame, and forcibly kiss one of his students by making […]

Chloe Finally Shows Up Just in Time to Give Us Another Boring Character to Root For: Left Behind Chapter 9
Left Behind Chapter 9: Unsurprisingly, Buck continues to rub people the wrong way: He felt the resentment from veteran department editors. Juan Ortiz, chief of the international politics section, was incensed that Buck should have anything to do with the summit conference Juan planned to cover in two weeks. I really don’t get what is […]

We Slowly Inch Forward Towards What is Bound to be a Major Plot Point: Untamed Chapter 21
House of Night, Untamed, Chapter 21: Aphrodite is skeptical that she’s just written the poem from her vision in Zoey’s grandmother’s handwriting. Zoey rightfully points out that it’s dumb to be skeptical of this when loads of unbelievable things happen in their world. I mean, her example is Darius running really quickly and not the fact […]

Zoey’s Grandma Explains What The Book’s About Now: House of Night Untamed Chapter 22
Currently, we’re in the middle of Zoey’s Grandma explaining what the poem means. This obviously required two chapters to accomplish. House of Night: Untamed Chapter 22 Because such evil forces are the subject of the poem, Zoey’s grandma refuses to explain further until they smudge – a cleansing ritual that I’m not 100% certain I […]

The Lazy Reader’s Guide: Feb 1 – Feb 5, 2016

Just in Case You Were Skeptical, This is Most Definitely the Rapture: Left Behind Chapter 11
Warning, warning, this chapter contains a rando soliloquising (for almost the whole chapter) about how he wasn’t a true Christian. Left Behind Chapter 11: Even Rayford is getting kind of bored of his story: Rayford was glad he could take Chloe out for a drive Saturday after having been cooped up with their grief. Glad we […]
