Review : Alex Van Helsing: Vampire Rising - Book #1- Jason Henderson- 2010

Wanting a teen vampire story with a difference ? This Vampire Book unlike the majority of them is suited to those guys who don't really want to admit that they read Vampire Novels but have a secret stash of them amongst their car magazines etc. The story focuses on Alex , the book doesn't really tell us but I'm guessing about 15/16 years old and his attendance at a new school. However , strange things have been happening and I'm not just talking about the silly pranks his two roommates The Merrill Brothers pull night after night. Unable to sleep one night, Alex goes for a walk and wham he sees what he thinks is a Vampire, but he can't be right can he as Vampires don't exist.
Soon Alex is going to be transported to a whole new world and find out everything his father ever told him was a lie and that the real Van Helsing : Vampire Hunter , the one Hugh Jackman played in Van Helsing was his great-great-great Grandfather.
Now Alex must join forces to help save his friends when they are kidnapped by a Vampire known as Ice-Man . Definitely sounds like a villainous name out of a superhero novel rather than a Vampire.
Can Alex put his few months training to the test as he tries to save his friends or will it be too late and his friends end up a sacrifice for the rising of Vampire Claire.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
