Are you a fan of Cynthia Leitich's other books " Tantalize" and "Eternal" ? What about a novel filled with Vampires, Were's and Angels ?

Blessed

Review : Blessed - Cynthia Leitich Smith -Book #3 - Jan 2011

Cynthia Leitich Smith has done wonders with her third book "Blessed" as she has brought together her previous two books and combined forces with the characters. From her first book Tantalize, we met Quincie and her best friend Kieran and in the second novel we met Angel Zachary and now in Blessed we see Quincie, Kieran and Zachary all joining forces, though it may not seem that way at first. Quincie has just discovered that she is becoming a Vampire and now she has found herself an orphan as her Uncle who was a Vampire has been staked , if that wasn't all - her best friend Werewolf Kieran is being framed while the real killer teen Vampire Bradley is at large creating an army of undead. In comes Zachary, he has been sent on a mission by the Archangel Michael to destroy Quincie's soul as she has been sentenced to a life of damnation as Vampires are the evilest of beings , however what they aren't aware of till about halfway through the novel , is that Bradley is planning to assume the powers of Dracula and become one hell of an evil and powerful vampire. It seems that in order to save the world , Zachary must pair up with Quincie and Kieran , though in saving the world -will it lead to the possibility of saving Quincie's soul or will it be too late ?
A novel that is quite thick , coming up at 462 pgs . Though if Vampires, Angels and Weres with a touch of apocalyptic war is your thing, then the pages will flick by with a blur.

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...
