Review: Understudy - Cheyanne Young - February 2014

With college scholarships looming close and being in the top 10 finalists, Wren discovers that maybe the clue to getting pushed further into the application is by participating in school extra-curriculum activities , so she signs up for the school play which happens to be directed by the school drama teacher - her Aunt Ms Barlow. Wren doesn't get a proper part in the play and is designated to stage design and listed to play "understudy" of the main character if Gwen Summers does not pull through. Also on the stage team is newcomer Derek - fresh from a stint in juvie , he and Wren have chemistry but is chemistry enough for both of them when Wren's friendship with Margot starts getting screwed up as she hates Derek. Fast forward to one week before Opening and it seems that everything is going bottoms up with Ms Barlow resigning and actors/actresses pulling out and leaving ? What will happen when Wren tries to save the play from being destroyed ? Will she be able to save her Aunt's play Love and Suicide in time for Opening Night ? It seems that this particular "Understudy" has a lot more on her plate than reading lines as a back-up and being stage manager/director. For a nice , clean teen novel - Check out Understudy by Cheyanne Young.

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
