Finding Emma

Review: Finding Emma - K.Ryan - October 2015

As a voracious reader, you do find yourself clicking better with some books than others as some you fall in love from the first page, whereas others can take a wee while to get into and for me Finding Emma was one of those reads where I struggled with the book. We first met Emma when she gets home and she is reading a text from her brother Noah, whom we can guess from the interaction she tries to avoid. From this part, we can guess that Emma has had an awful experience from her growing up with the family and it has caused her to run away and start a new life without them. Somewhere where she can just be left alone to her own devices and no-one knows about her past, so it can stay hidden. Of course, as readers know and in reality too - the past never stays hidden and often more so in books - the past comes back in tenfold and can knock us flying and make us feel like we are losing control and this is what happens to Emma. The other thing we know by reading books is that there is normally an event or a person of the opposite sex - mostly the latter that will be the cause of our unravelling and eventually with a whole lot of up's and downs will help us confront that past and if we are lucky - the main character will end up with this person and the book will finish with an HEA ending. In Finding Emma - that guy is Finn - her new neighbour , the catalyst and changing point though is a lost stray cat which was a different twist, which I did like. 
If you are in the mood for an Edgy New Adult Novel with a Self-Discovery Journey storyline , then check out Finding Emma by K.Ryan today.

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...
