Review: The Night It Ended - Katie Garner - June 2023

Even though it's been a couple of weeks since I read this book, it's still a weird read which makes the review harder to type. The book started as a thriller where we meet the good doctor Madeline Pine. She is a well-known psychiatrist. We get the impression that she is having some family issues and her husband and daughter have gone away for Christmas. Again, we have a feeling it is about drugs - but we don't know. Madeline gets a phone call from a Private Investigator Matt. A young girl has been found dead on the campus of a boarding school. This isn't an ordinary boarding school and we learn some of the girls have challenges. As it's Christmas break, a few are still on campus and Madeline has been tasked to interview them to find out what happened to Charley and how she ended up dead in the snow wearing hardly any clothes and no shoes. Was she murdered or was it an accident? We know someone at the school is hiding something and the overall book is about how far will people go to protect the ones they love, sometimes even kill - especially when the things they want most in the world hang in the balance of being ripped away from them forever. This book also had a very surprising twist that makes you then want to go back and see if you missed any clues and also try to connect the dots to what you have just read as when I read the last chapter it was like OMG!!!!! How ....... If you are on the lookout for a good dark academia thriller, then The Night It Ended by Katie Garner is the read for you.

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
