Review: Faking Perfect - Rebecca Phillips - June 2015

It's interesting reading books where quite a few seem to follow a specific trend , one of the biggest ones I have seen are books where the main character comes from either a broken home or an abusive one. The character tends to go two ways, she either falls into the "stay away from me " as I am broken or damaged or she tries to fake her way through life acting cheery and what she thinks classifies as the "perfect" one. For Lexi Shaw, she took the latter option . On the inside , she lives with an abusive sometimes but neglectful mother and has one night stands with bad boys - one in particular is Tyler who is the school's epitome of Bad Boy.  The thing is though that Lexi has a crush on Ben - her friend and the popular golden boy at school. But when she finally gets to date her dream guy, will she discover that often those who appear good and perfect are actually ugly creatures inside and that those who appear as Bad eggs are the ones with the biggest hearts ?  Faking Perfect was a journey of self-discovery and finding out that she is wanted for who she is and not what people expect her to be.

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
