Five Little Liars


Review: Five Little Liars - Amanda K. Morgan - June 2020

This book captured my attention from the cover with the tagline of "one dead teacher, one secret pact". Even though our library had this book in the Top Titles section which is normally reserved for adults’ books, I found Five Little Liars would have been more suited to older teens as the book is set during summer school and features the students, all from different walks of life who have been signed up to complete the professor's psychology class. The teacher as we are about to discover is such a hard nut and one night after failing students - five students will be bonded for life with a secret pact after they accidentally kill their teacher. Mattie, Ivy, Kinley, Tyler, and Cade are now connected with the murder of their teacher. As the story goes along, the five will try and make it look like an accident and make a pact never to talk about this again. The thing though is each of the five is hiding dark secrets of their own and if they aren't careful, then those secrets could be the downfall of their pact being broken and one of them if not all taking the fall for the murder. Even though it read to be similar to Karen McManus's series, I thought this had more of a Sara Shepard feel to the story with the secrets and pact side of things. I am now interested in reading the other books by this author and of course the sequel to Five Little Liars as ended on a major cliffhanger.

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
