Burning Georgia

Review: Burning Georgia - Jamie Blair - February 2017

Being stuck in a bit of a reading rut often sucks as everything you try, it just feels so blah and it takes a great book to kick you out of that rut. I often find for me if I am stuck, I need to read a good mystery as that tends to draw me in. Scrolling through my kindle looking for something to read, I came across an older read that I have had for several years. Burning Georgia by Jamie Blair was a great YA thriller that I didn't see the end coming and I was very surprised when all was revealed. In Jamie Blair's Burning Georgia, we meet Michaela aka Mikey, and her family Mum, Dad, and sister Frankie. The family are trying to move on but still living in a shroud of grief and uncertainty as Mikey and Frankie's older sister Georgia was murdered three months ago and the police aren't any closer to a suspect and if that wasn't bad enough, they keep on pestering her dad and constantly treating him like a suspect since they fought over tuition money.  Mikey however has a dark secret, that could be the key to solving her sister's murder but her sister made her promise not to tell a soul - Georgia was posting naked pictures of herself online and making her tuition money that way and she was popular too. When Mikey goes to a party at an old friend's Rodney, she learns his stepdad Ben is the Officer on Georgia's case and so Mikey gets cosy with Rodney so she can peek at the file and form her investigation. What will happen though when she is caught, will Georgia's killer be forever in the wind, or is her killer closer than Mikey realizes? Find out in this fun YA Thriller - Burning Georgia by Jamie Blair.

  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
