Review : Ruby Redfort - Look into my Eyes - Book #1 Ruby Redfort Series - Lauren Child - March 2012
Are you a fan of Lauren Child's books ? Have you read the Clarice Bean books to your children ? If so, then you may recall the name Ruby Redfort who is a detective that Clarice loves to read about . If you are like me and answered no, then I am about to introduce to you the Nancy Drew and Harriet the Spy like character of the year 2012. Growing up I was always a Harriet of the Spy girl , with my little notebook in hand writing away. The generation before that was Nancy Drew or The Hardy Boys and before that the Famous Five. 2012 brings us 13yr old Ruby Redfort , she is a genius when it comes to cracking codes. When her parents return home from their trip aboard with the Jade Buddha exhibition, things take a turn for Crazy as her housekeeper Mrs. Digby is kidnapped and their furniture is stolen and ontop of that a new butler arrives who Ruby suspects something is a little off with him. It turns out though, that he is in fact a Secret Agent for an Spy agency called Spectrum and they want to recruit Ruby as they have a code-cracking assignment that is top priority . Can Ruby crack the code and find out what is happening ? Will Ruby though be able to keep it all a secret from her best friend Clancy without losing him ? Is Ruby cut out to be a Secret Agent juggling School, Friends and her Family life ? .
What I really loved about Ruby is her collection of Tshirts , as I am a big Tshirt Statement girl and as we went through the book and read some of her tshirt designs , I was like "I want that".
A great read by Lauren Child aimed at Girls aged 9-13yrs.

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...
