Review: This is What Happy Looks Like - Jennifer .E. Smith - April 2013

Imagine recieving an email or in today's society, a text message. The message is supposed to be for someone else, but you randomly reply back anyway and a friendship via email or text strikes up. I loved this concept as surprisingly enough , that is what happened between me and my date for the 7th form ball . We started texting a few years before and struck a text friendship as he had meant to text someone else while at Cricket Camp. We soon began texting all day and every day, it was part of our daily routine and then we finally met . In Jennifer E. Smith's new book "This is What Happy Looks Like" , we meet Graham Larkin who was supposed to email a friend and ended up emailing Ellie O'Neal. Graham lives in California and Ellie in Henley, Maine. The two believe that they will never met and become pen-pals via email. What we discover next though is that Ellie's email partner is hiding a big secret - he is in fact Hollywood teen heart-throb and he is currently filming a film in Henley, Maine. What will happen when the pair finally meet ? Will they get on in person as they do on email or will their meeting be awkward ? Ellie has some family secrets, that they would prefer to keep hidden - when Ellie starts seeing Graham - will she be able to keep those secrets hidden away or once they are in the limelight - her family's past be scandalised across the newspapers once again ?
Find out in Jennifer E. Smith's new teen romance novel "This is What Happy Looks Like". This is another book worth reading and all will enjoy.

    "This Is What Happy Looks Like" is a sweet and simple novel about the emotional growths of two very different, yet very similar, teenagers. The evocative writing brings the story to life, and it is undoubtedly the perfect book to bring to the poolside on those bright summer days!

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...
