Review: Holly Holiday and the Christmas Forest - Katie Anderson - October 2022

With Christmas coming to an end and I was needing a quick read as I was in a bit of an indecisive mood, I grabbed one of the Netgalley Christmas picture book reads - Holly Holiday and the Christmas Forest by Katie Anderson. This cute picture book introduces us to Holly Holiday whose favorite holiday in the world is ---- you guessed it "Christmas". She loves everything about Christmas from wrapping up presents, to carols and decorating the Christmas tree. One morning after Christmas, Holly wakes up to discover her parents getting rid of their tree. She is horrified and upset to learn that it is dead. This gets her thinking about what she could do differently so they aren't always getting rid of dead trees at Christmas time. Eventually, Holly and her family land on the idea of buying a small Christmas tree plant and decorating that, and each year after Christmas is over the family travel out to their patch of land and plant the tree. As each Christmas passes, the family continues this tradition until Holly Holiday and her family have a Christmas Forest of trees. Holly Holiday and the Christmas Forest by Katie Anderson is the perfect Christmas picture book for those aged 6-9 years old and a family read that could turn into a family tradition.

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...
