This Book Will Change Your Life

Review: This Book Will Change Your Life - Amanda Weaver - September 2015

Hannah has always loved and dreamed of being a Chemist just like her mother was before she died and her father is now and so she begins her college life as a Chemistry major studying Honors Chem. After she fails her first major test , she is distraught and she heads out and finds herself standing in a secondhand bookshop "Promethus Books". It is here that she meets Ben , he is nearly finished his English Lit degree and is preparing for Law School to follow in his family's footsteps - the thing is though that he doesn't want to - he wants to go to Grad School and earn his MA and become a Professor as he sees Books as a way to change your life for the better. Hannah isn't one who reads , so she tells Ben to give her a book - any book and soon this turns into a weekly occurrence. As the novel goes along ,we read as Ben and Hannah get closer and we hope they connect romantically - the thing is though that Ben has a long hidden crush on Alex who is his best friend and she works across the road at the coffee shop. What he doesn't realise though is that it is Hannah who he can bare his soul too and who he wants to share the world with. Can Ben decide who he wants to be with before it's too late and he picks the wrong girl ? Though just when things start to look up for both Ben and Hannah - the pair crash and burn as Hannah views Ben as a coward and a heretic. This Book Will Change Your Life is basically a journey novel , a novel that shows in order to Change your life you have to take a chance and no matter what the consequences will be , it is more important to be happy in life doing something you adore than be miserable and stuck doing something you hate just to please someone else .  If you are a book lover then you will love this book as it touches on a few awesome stories and novels which I loved the little reflections and quotes from. This has made me also think about things as I believe if I could have re-done University I would have studied English Lit and gone on to that side of life.

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
