Review: Reaper - L.S Murphy - January 2013

Imagine being sixteen years old and discovering that you are a direct descendant to the Grim Reaper and that it's your turn to become one. What would you do ? For Quincy Amarante, she is about to discover what happens when you try and walk away from what many will call your destiny or your fate when during class she discovers time is frozen and standing with death is her great-grandfather Forsyth Amarante. Now Quincy must accept her new role and become a reaper to keep life and death in balance. This wouldn't be too hard but Quincy is sixteen years old and going through all the peer pressure and things that sixteens go through like friendship issues, backstabbers, boyfriends and enemies , mean guys and girls and of course parents and parties.  Can Quincy make it through the year in one piece or will tragedy strike too close to home which will cause Quincy to re-evaluate her life and even maybe her role as a Grim Reaper ?
Find out in this fun teen read which reminded me of a cross between both of Darynda Jones's series "The Charley Davidson Series" with the Grim Reaper and Ghost thing and "Death, The Girl and .............. series " in terms of High School and the teen content.

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...
