Collide (Madison Falls High, #1)

Review: Collide - Book #1 Madison Falls - K. Walker - November 2019

Reading through the bullymance trope, I feel as to stop them all becoming and feeling the same thing I need to take it in chunks and read it now and again. After taking a few months of break , I have started to get back into it and enjoy it. Like most books, you get some really good ones and others are just average. Unfortunately for me, Collide was one of those borderline Bullymances and I had to push myself to finish it. It won't be a series I will be continuing as it just fell a bit too flat for me. In Collide, our main girl Sophia has just moved to Madison Falls with her mother who has just taken a job for Mr. Humphrys as his nurse. This means she has to start a new school for her senior year and of course, she wishes to be invisible but on her first day, she attracts the attention of not only the hottest guy in school Chad Minor but also Queen B Callie Humphry. I have to admit I was in two minds about this book as I loved the fact that Sophia keeps standing up to Callie and puts Chad in his place. That is right until the last few chapters, where the pair become an item and of course Callie gets jealous. I do feel though that we missed a whole chapter or chunk of book between the last two chapters as it went from one extreme to another and it left me thinking huh? What did I miss and I had to re-read the last page to make sure I hadn't missed anything important, I hadn't so the ending left me confused. Overall, if you are in the mood for a bullymance you could try Collide but for me, it's a hit or miss series.

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
