#NoEscape (#murdertrending, #3)

Review: #NoEscape - Book #3 #Murdertreding Series - Gretchen McNeil - September 2020

One of my favorite YA thriller authors is Gretchen McNeil and with the new popular trend of Escape Rooms, I figured to read this book as also it was Book #3 in the #murdertrending series. This one though takes us twenty years before the hit killer TV show #MurderTrending - Survivor for Prisoners. This book introduces us to the stories and childhoods of Abe and Kimber Bolton. For those who have read the first two books, you will find those names familiar as The Postman and Kimber was the foster sister/ best friend who did Abe's bidding. The book starts with Persey aka Persephone solving an escape room and then along with her newfound friend Kevin being invited to a massive escape room competition with a select few who have also solved the impossible. When Persey arrives though, she is the youngest one there and the one people seem to be misjudging. For her, this competition is to prove to her father that she is just as intelligent as her brother and that she can make something for herself as he constantly puts her down. As the escape room begins though, it seems danger is at play as this reminded me a bit of a psychotic version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory tour where instead of being harmed during the tour, this one the escape rooms are deadly, and as the rooms progress one by one the contestants start to vanish. Will Persey and the crew make it out alive or have they landed in an Escape room scenario where there is #noescape? Find out in Book #3, a YA that all thriller fans will love and enjoy and may give you second thoughts about entering your escape room competition.

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...
