Trial By Fire (Going Down in Flames, #3)

Review: Trial by Fire - Book #3 Going Down in Flames Series - Chris Cannon - April 2016

Our favourite teen dragon shifter Bryn is back with Book #3 Trial by Fire. In a couple of ways I was a little disappointed with this read as I was under the impression that it was to be a trilogy and was hoping for a closure and some answers to questions in the first couple of books and also that the ending of Book #2 - the amazing cliffhanger wasn't really captured and talked about in Book #3 - it was slightly glanced over and only had a small handful of mentions in Trial by Fire. In a way parts of this book felt rushed as we only got snippets of stories. On the upside I did enjoy the read as I love this series and I can't wait to read the next book :). The school is back in session, though with more wounded dragons after a series of attacks left the dragons fighting for their survival. Bryn is getting closer to her grandparents - even her grandfather seems to be warming up to her which considering he is like the King of Dragons and a Blue - this is excellent news for Bryn. The one thing Bryn isn't too happy about is that her marriage to Jaxon is still pending especially when her feelings for her Knight Valmont are coming in thick and strong. In Trial by Fire , it does discuss a bit of background about the dangers of separation if a bonded Knight and Dragon seperate ways if the connection is still there as Bryn and Valmont discover a hidden archive of library books and scrolls. One of the parts I was hoping for with more information was about the different hybrids that they discovered at the end of Book #2. In Book #3 , Bryn meets a couple of Hybrids Adam and Eve and learns about hidden dragon communities where hybrids are seen as normal people and not the oddity she has been treated as.
If you love teen fiction , romance, dragon shifting, fantasy and a semi-fast paced novel then Book #3 in the Going Down in Flames Series - Trial by Fire is the read for you.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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...
