Review: Tousle Me - A New Adult Parody - Lucy V. Morgan - December 2013

This is a really hard review to write as think about all the New Adult books you have read from Beautiful Disaster to Cora Cormack's Losing It to Gabriel's Rapture and Fifty Shades of Grey even Ten Tiny Breaths makes an appearance. 
Tousle Me is a Parody which means as you read it , you can't help but think oh my goodness this is bad, really really bad. Not bad in a writing way but bad in content and then when I say bad in content not bad as over-sexed etc but bad as it pokes fun at everything New Adult stands for . It was quite a difficult read to get through as I struggled through the book but I kept reading as it still held my attention and fascination and I wanted to see what books it would poke fun at.  The story of course focuses on a Plain Jane Book Blogger called Cammibelle Hicks who lives with her over-sexed slut flatmate Enid and has a best friend Frat boy called Archery Riddick. At a frat party, Cammi runs into Hunter Von Styles who is your Alpha dude , the hot but misunderstood guy . A favourite part was that Cammi was upset about a review of hers taken down from Goodreads as they had a rule about the number of GIFS allowed in one review. To make her happy, Hunter went and brought her Goodreads. He took her to dinner in a limo through the Drive-Thru at McDonalds and he dipped his nuggets in BBQ sauce and licked her fries. When things were getting hot and heavy, Virgin Cammibelle made the excuse she had to go and pick up her pet Octopus from the Aqua Vet and he went and brought her a Unicorn who farted glitter.  See where I am going with this ????
 This is one of those books where if you love New Adult and don't mind Parodies , then it is a good laugh at them and pokes lots and lots of fun at them , but if you feel in the mood for an easy light-hearted read . Then this is not the book for you as reading it will take a lot out of you.

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...
