The Little Guide to Unhip - KJ Rigby

-

This is my new symbol for those books that don't really fit into any particular category . I thought it looked pretty fiery and has a hint of the Olympics Torch. Every now and again, I recieve "quite rare though" a book that doesn't really have a specific hint of genre that I can classify with a symbol. Today's book is one of those "rare commodities".

                                  Review : Little Guide to Unhip - KJ Rigby - June 2010

With Christmas looming closer and closer , for all those who need a little extra present or stocking stuffer. The Little Guide to Unhip by KJ Rigby is the perfect gift. Each page contains something that is considered unhip , It made me laugh as I apparently am one of those many who do alot of things that fall into the Dangerously Unhip, Definitely Unhip and Midly Unhip columns. The only downside for me was that this book was definitely written about things in the UK as being in New Zealand -some of the aspects of Unhip were new concepts to me and other's I'd never heard of - which I guess on the plus side it meant that I have the upper hand of not being Unhip :). One of the Dangerously Unhip things was Musician Gilbert O'Sullivan to Umbrellas or as the British call them Brolleys - for me personally if nessecary I'll use an umbrella but I definitely won't wear a hat . Elasticated Waists - I agree with Kate on this one - Ewh, Elastic waists are for old women - "only just though". The colour Beige - I definitely agree - it is such a "blah" colour and so once again boring - the list of things Unhip is endless and by the time one has finished this Little guide to Unhip , they will be in laughter with tears as it is humourous and fun - also a good way to tease your siblings and parents and prove to them once and for all - that they are truly unhip.

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

  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
