Review: The Only One - Magan Vernon - October 2013 

As a big fan of New Adult books, I find myself reading alot of them and every now and again you can find a dud but more often than not you stumble across one that makes you go OMG this is awesome and hope to high heavens that there are more books by this author as you have found a new author to follow. For "The Only One" fell only just - in the middle as it was an awesome book and I will be buying more from this author , but the main character annoyed me just a tad and I was like ARGH - open your eyes Melanie , can't you see that John Boy loves you and he doesn't just want you for sex , so stop forcing the whole sex issue and go with the flow. In The Only One we meet shy girl Melanie who loves Hermione Granger btw and you will see quite a few Harry Potter references throughout the book. The story starts when she heads to a frat party with her best friend Monica aka The Lib and her boyfriend Trey - the politician's son. Here at the frat party, Melanie meets "Loincloth Boy" aka John Boy. There is something about her that John Boy can't just shrug off and wants to get to know her , but Melanie isn't A) experienced with guys, B) used to all the attention and C) her last serious relationship ended up with her walking in on him cheating also not to ruin the surprise of the novel but there is a big twist in the book which lays down the foundation for the way the story will roll. So readers, I shall leave it at that with the review but will reveal my parting words as this is one New Adult Book that all should read.

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...
