In Another Life

Review: In Another Life - C.C Hunter - March 2019
One of my favorite tropes has always been the one where people find their families and growing up one of my favorite books/movies was The Face on the Milk Carton. I also enjoyed Finding Carter who played on MTV a few years ago. The stories are based on children who were kidnapped at a young age. Chloe was adopted when she was three years old, and now her parents are getting divorced. Chloe is moving with her mother to a small town and living in her grandmother's old house. Chloe will meet a guy called Cash Colton that will change her life forever. Chloe is having feelings of deja vu but how can that be when she has never been to this town before? With Cash's help, he will help Chloe discover that she was kidnapped at three years old and her family isn't her own. Though she is about to realize that there are people who will kill to have her silenced and the truth to remain a secret. I have to admit this story had so much potential and fell flat for me as I had hoped we could get a bit more background on Chloe's real "family" and the lead-up to her kidnapping etc. This book just ended when she found the truth, and we didn't get the aftermath of the incident which I feel in stories like this you need as you have all those lost years to make up for and also all the emotions that are involved with being raised by people you thought adopted you not stole you.

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
