Review: Sage- Book #2 The Outsiders Series - Sara Schoen - May 2018



After reading Rose and loving it, I was eager to read the next in the series "Sage" which was told from Sage's POV. For those who have read Rose, you will remember her mentioning how her older sister Sage was in prison and getting out soon as Rose's ex-friend Bailey - an outsider had dobbed her family into the authorities after their parents vanished. We did get a little more insight to their parents but am hoping that possibly in Violet's story we will truly discover where their parents disappeared too and what happened to them. In Sage's story - Sage is finally being released from prison and is being sent to a halfway house. As her record is sealed, she can start a new life for herself and eventually build a family for her and her sisters Rose and Violet. Sage will discover though that Rose and Violet are happy with the Williams and that they want Sage to join their new family. Sage is angry as she feels that they are turning their backs on her and everything she did for them - she spent most of her youth in juvie because of them.  Sage starts a new job as part of her rehab requirement and gets a blast from the past as one of the employees is Seth - a guy from her old life pre-juvie and someone she loved and cared for.  All he knows about Sage is that she struggled and was there one day and disappeared the next. What will happen when he discovers the truth of where she has been the past three-four years? Can Sage be the strong one and reinvent her life one more time or is she a broken shell of her former self? Find out in Book #2 Sage in The Outsider Series. I have to admit, what Sage did for her sisters got me thinking about things and what I would do if I was in that situation and I would hope that I would have the courage to do exactly what Sage did to keep us together, no matter what the consequences.

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...
