Review: Stargazing from Nowhere - Isabel and Marilyn Thomas - July 2013

What would you do if the band that you blogged about, the one you hated so much was going to come to your small town ? For high schooler Kristen Morgan, this is a bit of dilemma as by day she is your average invisible high school attendee but by night she runs an anonymous blog called "Stargazing from Nowhere" and is known simply in the cyber-world as "The Stargazer" . On her blog, she bags and prints gossip about the band Rising Tide and other tidbits that excite her as of course in the cyber world she can be as blunt and honest as she wants and no-one will care and know it's her.  Turns out though that the band Rising Tide have had some nasty problems and are being sent to Kristen's small hometown to hide from the press and work out their band problems in order for the new album to be a success like the previous ones.  Kristen sees this as an advantage and an opportunity and decides to pose as Rising Tides biggest fan and crashes one of their events. This lands Kristen in the eyesight of the drummer of Rising Tide Michael. Of course, for those who have read American Girl on Saturn will have an idea on what angle this book will take as that is what it reminded me of . As Michael and Kristen get closer , it seems that passion has struck a match and the two start to fall for each other. What will happen though when Michael discovers who Kristen's alter-ego is ? When it comes to the crunch, what will Kristen go with - her head or her heart ? Which is more important to her - her blog or her love for Michael ?
Find out in this contemporary teen romance novel "Stargazing from Nowhere" which another aspect I loved was the blog posts and comments spread throughout the novel.

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...
