Catching Quinn Jennifer Bonds (Waverly Wildcats, #2) Publication date: June 28th 2022 Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance, Sports What’s a girl have to do to lose her virginity around here? When I decided to ditch my V-card, I figured Greek Row was a sure thing.

After all, Waverly’s star wide receiver is the most notorious player on campus. He’s arrogant. Infuriating. Sexy as hell. Just ask him. Worse? He’s made it his personal mission to scare off every guy who shows an interest in me. But I’m not about to be outwitted by a hypocritical baller with more ego than sense.

Review: Tricks - Book #1 Tricks - Ellen Hopkins - August 2009 Around the time that this book was published and a little earlier I was going through a stage of getting into and reading Ellen Hopkins books as I inched into my early 20s. Now at 35, I decided this year, and with the access to the Libby app after reading Flirtin with the Monster, to go back and re-read her books. The thing that I love about her books is that they are written in poetry format which makes the story flow nicer as we glide from one character to the next. So far, I have read Burned, Impulse, and now Tricks. This one was an interesting ride, not a massive favorite but still, a powerful read which shows what people(teens) will do to survive especially when your choices and freedom are taken away from you. Tricks feature five teens from all different walks of life who have one thing in common, they are all living their lives the best they can but they still yearning for something extra whether it be love, acceptan...

Review: The Anti-Virginity Pact - Katie Wismer - June 2020 Before I started this book, I didn't realize that it would have a heavy Christianity focus in the book but as someone who doesn't mind reading Christian books, it didn't hinder me in enjoying this book. Our book introduces us to our two main characters Meredith and her best friend Johanna. Meredith and Johanna are in their final year of high school and have decided that this year they will lose their V-cards and together in a drunken haze - make an Anti-Virginity pact. Normally this wouldn't have been too bad but for Meredith - she is the eldest daughter of the local Preacher and they are quite strict in their learnings as we read one of the church member youth being sent to the Conversion Christian Camps and their Dad heading to stop Sex Ed at their high school. As the book goes along, we read as Meredith starts to date Sam - another guy from her Church and Johanna has her eye on their English teach...
