Review: Charming: A Cinderella Story - Michaela Morgan - October 2012

One of the things we are having to do at work recently is to read a Children's book once a month and this month I choose Charming : A Cinderella Story. I choose it as I love the tale of Cinderella and it seemed like a fun read. The story takes place in the UK where we meet Elsie Cool - she's our Cinderella , Charmaine Prince - Godmother , Kitty and the Airheads - Ugly Stepsisters and Guy - Prince Charming. At school, Elsie dreams of being one of the cool ones just like her surname suggests, but she's not and she is sick of being picked on by Kitty and her mean friends. She is a loner until new girl Charmaine starts and takes Elsie under her wing. She introduces Elsie to the world of fashion, self-confidence and dancing and shows Elsie how to be the inner goddess she is inside on the outside and how to stand up to the bullies and win her Prince Charming - Guy.
Charming by Michaela Morgan is a nice quick read and is created by Barrington Stoke who has written the book on a different sort of paper which is considered to be dyslexia friendly.

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
