Review: First Love - James Patterson and Emily Raymond

Image
  Review: First Love - James Patterson and Emily Raymond - December 2013 One of my all-time favourite authors is James Patterson and as this is the case, I am destined to try read every single book he releases. Some I have loved, others I have tried to read but could not get too. Some I loved so much, others I have just liked. As I am currently like many others going through that trend of New Adult books, I was quite excited when I saw that James Patterson and Emily Raymond had released an New Adult novel. I wasn't sure exactly what I was going to find between the covers, but I was excited to read it anyway. What I found was the story of two teens - Axi and Robinson . Axi has always been a good girl, following the rules until one day she realises that enough is enough and she must escape her hometown. The thing is she can't do it without her best friend Robinson , who has some ideas of his own on how to get around . First Love is a full-on and often emotional ...

  Review: Sweet Southern Betrayal - Book #3 The Boys are Back in Town - Robin Covington - January 2014 In the mood for some entangled indulgence this summer or depending which part of the world you are in - it could be a winter read in front of a fireplace ? Book #3 in Robin Covington's series The Boys are Back in Town takes us into the life of hotshot lawyer Teague Elliott who is on his way up and seems like a charming snappy lad who in the process doesn't mind playing dirty as he knows that sometimes in this world , to get anywhere and have power sometimes you have to bend and break a few rules. When Teague is offered a job position with a Mob Boss type guy Tony aka Big Tony, he knows he really shouldn't decline it but it's not like he can accept the job offer in front of his present boss as he really doesn't want to have unemployment as an option especially since he is fast-tracking it. All Teague has to do in order to secure his high-rise is st...

Review: Karma Kitty Goes to Comic Con - Mari Mancusi

    Review: Karma Kitty Goes to Comic Con - Mari Mancusi - May 2011 . Growing up in New Zealand, since it's such a small country we don't really have great Conventions so I have to resort to reading about it . Though , I'm not a huge Comic reader or a LARP type person or even Anime - the idea of attending Comic Con in America sounds amazing and would be so much fun and excitement. So of course, when I saw that one of my favourite authors Mari Mancusi had released Karma Kitty Goes to Comic Con , I just had to purchase it as the other thing I love is superhero type novels. Reading Karma Kitty, I was in for a ride as I met the author of the Karma Kitty comics Hailey who seems to live quite an adventurous life and with Comic Con coming up she has created the perfect Karma Kitty costume complete with some boots she has brought online - the thing though is these boots have magical properties and they ACTUALLY transform Hailey into her comic book character and alte...

VBT# In Bed With Mr Wrong - Katee Roberts

Image
    Review: In Bed With Mr Wrong - Book #1 Out of Uniform - Katee Robert - January 2014 I am such a sucker for the Cinderella type stories. I just love that whole romantic love where a mousy or a girl who doesn't see herself as all that falls in love with someone who is attractive, handsome, wealthy etc. It is what true love romance stories should be about. Unfortunately, though for people like me and most of us in the "real world' that's what they are stories - pure fictional. In Bed with Mr Wrong starts off with Brianne - a mousy but sexy librarian - this was another pro for this book as of course I am a librarian. She has been set up on a blind date with her best guy friend Drew's older brother Ryan. Ryan is home from the military and if gossip mills are to be listened to , he has a bit of a troublemaker reputation. From the pair's first meeting, both parties are too consumed with their own thoughts that this matchmaking partnership is ...
