The Pledge

Review: The Pledge - Book #1 College Bound Series - Laura Ward and Christine Manzari - July 2015

Starting College can always be a scary experience, but it is also a great time to reinvent yourself. Be a different person than you were in high school as often the best thing about starting college is that no-one from your old life will be there or at least remembers you. In High School Taren was the social outcast and geek girl , she was the bottom of the high school food chain. In her last year, she got paired up with Alec who was a jock and one of the popular guys. They got close on the project and she thought he liked her and so she asked him to Homecoming in front of his friends and he turned her down. This ruined her senior year and made her life a living hell as taunts followed. What will happen when it is discovered that they are both enrolled at the same college and according to Taren's friends , she is quite the hottie ? As the story goes on, we read various interactions between Taren and Alec as they overcome obstacles such as relationships, lies, secrets, family, drama to eventually find their place in each other's world. If you are a fan of New Adult College Fiction and the world of Sororities and Frats ( I mean Fraternites) as their is a quote about them being called Frats in the book. Then The Pledge is the read for you.

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...
