Review: A Novel Love Story - Ashley Poston - June 2024

Ever imagined what it would be like to live in the world of your favourite book? Would it get tiresome to relive the same moments over and over again, or would it be like being in heaven? For Eileen, her world last year came crashing down as not only did her favourite author die, Rachel Flowers, her fiance left her for another woman just as they were about to be married. She had been looking forward to her yearly book club week away in a cabin. But then when the other members said they couldn't make it, Eileen decided that she was still going to go anyway by herself. She deserved this. Driving in the rain though, she ends up getting lost in the storm and almost runs over a man at the same time. This leads her to a small town tucked away, one of those blink-and-you-will-miss-it towns. She thinks she will just stay the night until the storm passes but as she settles in - there are little easter eggs that make her feel like she has been here before or in her case -she has read. Somehow Eileen has ended up in the town of her favourite series by Rachel Flowers. Here in town, she meets the grumpy bookshop owner Anders. The thing though is he is the only character she doesn't remember at all. Was he to be the love interest in her unwritten 4th book? The one she died before finishing? Eileen better be careful as her being inside the book, is causing waves between some of the characters and if she isn't careful, she might just end up rewriting some of their stories like the tale of Ruby and Jake. I enjoyed this book, not as much as The Seven Year Slip but was still a great read and gave me Kate and Leopold movie vibes which is still to this day one of my favourite films featuring Meg Ryan and Hugh Jackman.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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...
