Review: The Missing - Book #2 The Birthright Trilogy - Necole Ryse - December 2014

Raevyn is back for the new semester, though alot has changed since she finished last semester. Her secret boyfriend Jeffrey is missing and Raevyn seems to have been the last person to see her alive and now she is the number #1 suspect to have murdered him or at least had something to do with his disappearance. The only thing is that Raevyn fell asleep next to him and then when she woke up he was gone and all that was left was an anonymous note. The other downside is that Raevyn's roommate was to be Jeffrey's partner as of course Regina Fitzgerald is Legacy material just like Jeffrey and Raevyn is a nobody. Is that true though as Raevyn's past comes back to haunt her and it seems that her family has quite a few skeletons hiding in their closet especially surrounding the birth of Raevyn herself. Also during this novel is the infamous House Games and this year things are about to get even more deadlier than before as the games are taken to a whole new level. What will it take for the police to realise that Raevyn had nothing to do with Jeffery's death ? 
Like the previous novel, I found this one quite fast-paced and interesting as well as the major fact that despite her boyfriend being dead - Raevyn definitely does not have any shortage of guys wanting to a) date her or b) protect her.
This novel does end on a major cliffie which now makes me WANT the next book but of course I must wait. What does get answered thougb at the end is who is "B" - the identity behind the notes and why they were sent and who made Jeffrey disappear and why ? Trust me when I say this , you will get a huge surprise when all is revealed. I was definitely like I saw half that coming but not the major part.
If you love teen novels, boarding schools and don't mind reading African-American based characters. Then you are in for a treat with Necole Ryse's Birthright Trilogy.

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
