Oh.My.Gods. by Tera Lynn Childs

Review of Oh.My.Gods by Tera Lynn Childs

Published: May 14, 2009 (paperback)

5 out of 5 smirks

Synopsis: “When Phoebe's mom returns from Greece with a new husband and plans to move to an island in the Aegean Sea, Phoebe's well-plotted senior year becomes ancient history. Now, instead of enjoying a triumphant track season and planning for college with her best friends, Phoebe is trying to keep her head above water at the big exclusive Academy. If it isn't hard enough being the new kid in school, Phoebe's classmates are all descendents of the Greek gods! When you're running against teammates with superpowers, dealing with a stepsister from Hades, and nursing a crush on a boy who is quite literally a god, the drama takes on mythic proportions!”

I am really starting to love this author. I’ve read two books of hers from two different series and find myself searching for more of her books to read. Tera Lynn Childs has a cunning, magical, unique way to writing young adult books which can make any reader bow down to her abilities. I find that books in general can mean something to each different reader. Oh.My.Gods. by Tera Lynn Childs is the type of book that inspires me. I felt an emotional connection to Phoebe, Nicole, Troy, and even Griffin that left me feeling inspired to do the best I can in every aspect of my life. Frankly, it was something I really needed because now all I want to do is work out and try out running to see if that fits me. Oh.My.Gods. is a story about unexpected surprises, experiences, and outcomes that can really knock a girl off her feet. I don’t want to give away anything this book has to offer, but I will say Tera Lynn Childs is a must read and a must own. I give Oh.My.Gods. by Tera Lynn Childs 5 smirks because I felt the emotion the characters experience, I laughed, and I was ultimately inspired to change something about myself in order to better my life.

  1. great review!!!!--It makes me remember how I felt when I first read OMG!!! *smile* --And I totally did the same thing--running out to see what else she had written! I'm SO EXCITED because Sweet Venom (the first book in her new trilogy) just came out today and it's SOOOOOOO good--It brings me back to OMG all over again, but with a darker edge.

    btw, new follower ;)
