 Review : Haint Misbehavin' - Book #1 -Ghost Handler Series -Maureen Hardegree - June 2010

Do you prefer The Ghost Whisperer and Medium over True Blood and The Vampire Diaries ? , If so then readers especially if you are in between the ages of about 14 - 20's then I have the perfect book for you. Haint Misbehavin' by Maureen Hardegree is to The Mediator Series by Meg Cabot , just with a little bit more humor. In Haint Misbehavin' we see poor Heather - the middle sister who seems to be getting not only picked on by her older sister Audrey and humiliated at the pools with the hot lifeguard watching the scene unfold and for Heather - its triple embarrassing as she has a huge crush on him. Of course , we all remember what it was like to be 14 yrs old , however for Heather - she has entered into the stage that some would call her crazy if they found out and Heather doesn't know whether to see it as a blessing or a curse - she can see Ghosts and the ghost that is haunting her at the moment is the same one she had as an Imaginary friend when she was 4 years old . If this wasn't enough stress and worry to put onto a 14 yr old girl , she has just gotten her period and the only thing she knows about this side of things is what she has read in her Judy Blume book "Are you there God, It's me Margaret".
Readers, watch as Heather tries to juggle life , friends and this ghost as she tries to get her to move on and as Melinda Gordon from Ghost Whisperer would say "Go into the Light".

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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 - 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...
