Stepping Stones (The Stone Series, #1)

Review: Stepping Stones - Book #1 Stone Series - Kacey Vanderkarr - August 2015

Have you ever read a book that you found to be really weird and just plain confusing ? That to me was the entirety of Stepping Stones. It started out normal with Onnaleigh's parents announcing that they were getting a divorce and her headed to a local shop where she spots a hot guy and then rushing to tell her best friend Hunter about said guy and the divorce as that's what teen girls do. Then of course the hot guy starts at Onnaleigh's school and everyone loves him, which again makes sense and he only has eyes for Onnaleigh which makes the readers swoon as we are used to reading books like this and then wham bam this is where the book starts to get really odd as her older brother Caleb and fiancee Cora are on their way home to celebrate the news when an accident occurs and Onna and Everett - the new guy just happen to come across the scene. In this part, our hearts ache and eyes tear up for Onna as we are like Nooooooo how could this happen to her brother, especially with the divorce happening. Readers, this isn't the end of tragedy for Onna though - it's about to get even more messed up and worse as turns out Everett isn't actually part of this world - he is a guide and the guides have a plan for Onna and in order for this to happen , she must lose everything she ever cared about and have no attachments left on earth. You catching my drift, this of course means more tragic moments in her life.Not to give away any ending, I shall leave it there but readers if you do pick up Stepping Stones, you are in for one heck of a weird reading experience ride.

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...
