Review: Inside Out - Book #3 Off the Map Series - Lia Riley - December 2014

One of the things I hate when it comes to the end of a series is that you have to say goodbye to your favourite characters, ones that you have come to love. I have to admit throughout this series I have been in two minds about Bran and Talia. Sometimes I love them to bits and other times I want to scream at them, especially Talia. In this book Talia has finally gone off to the Peace Corps in Africa and Bran is sailing around the world with his Antartica ship saving the ocean wildlife. The two are reunited when Talia falls into a coma after getting malaria. Bran comes back to America with Talia where she is confronted with the news that her dad is remarrying and him and his fiancee are expecting a new baby. As we know Talia has OCD and so this sets her off. During this time which is most of the novel, we read the back and forth banter of Talia and Bran - as Talia tries to push Bran away and Bran refuses to leave. This was one aspect I didn't like about the series , is that I found Talia was quite stubborn and her pushing away annoyed me as she wouldn't let him in, though she did know he cared. With three months left before Bran's visa expires, can he prove to Talia once and for all that she is his and that no matter what he will always love her.  In conclusion, I did like the various twists and turns of Inside Out and the ending finished and rounded the series very well with the new twist using a death tarot card.
If you are looking for an awesome, contempory and edgy New Adult series that spans the globe trotting into a few different continents around the world, then check out Lia Riley's Off the Map series.

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...
