Isn't it always sad when you come to the end of a series that you have enjoyed, but then again to look on the positive side , you have just finished an amazing series and now you can move on to another awesome series of books.

The Forgotten Locket (Hourglass Door Trilogy)
Review: The Forgotten Locket- Book #3 The Hourglass Trilogy- June 2011
I don't know about you but I always tend to be a bit sad when I reach the end of a book series as it's like OMG I have to part with the main characters, leave them behind and find new friends and characters to read about and get to know. So is with the Forgotten Locket, the third and final book in the Hourglass Trilogy . It's the book that we say goodbye to awesome characters Abby , Dante and his brother Leo/Orlando , Valerie and to evil characters like Zo and his crew. In Book #2 The Golden Spiral, we read as Abby with the help of her best friends helped re-create the Hourglass Door in order to step through the time machine and at the end of The Golden Spiral we read as a distraught Abby left Dante in order to help save the ones she loves from Zo. In The Forgotten Locket, we are reunited with Dante who is blind and injured , and his brother Leo or in this case Orlando as he seems to have forgotten his life as Leo and Abby goes back in time to when he was first cast away in the Time Machine for treason. Abby has one goal in mind , which to her will help restore the peace and balance back in her world and the ones she loves, to repair the time machine and the river of time. Can she do it in time or as we read before Zo -her arch-enemy interferes once again as he has plans for her. Soon we read as Abby becomes involved in a battle of not only good and evil but of time - past, present and the future. Can Abby save Dante or are Zo's evil ways coming quicker than she can fight off ?
The Forgotten Locket is a great way to finish off the series as it's all a race of time for Abby to save A) the ones she loves in the modern world - her family and friends in school and B) to save those who are trapped in the river of time - Dante and Leo. Can Abby save them without losing herself and ending up like her friend Valerie or will it be too much of a risk and the time for her to say Goodbye forever to Dante- her true love?
Find out in The Forgotten Locket , which unlike the other two books this one tends to favour a lot of time in the past rather than present.

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...
