Prom and Prejudice
Review: Prom and Prejudice- Elizabeth Eulberg- January 2011
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single girl of high standing at Longburn Academy must be in want of a prom date".
Are you a fan of Jane Austen's Tale "Pride and Prejudice"- one of the most famously used classic novels in today's society. There have been probably hundreds of books written using the basis of Jane Austen's collection of 8 novels. I love the tale of Pride and Prejudice with the outspoken and down to earth Lizzie Bennett and the Pompous Mr William Darcy who turns out to actually be quite the romantic at heart and because Im just so fascinated with the whole MB (myer-briggs) TI , I googled to see what they have classified Darcy and Lizzie as and Darcy is an INTJ and Lizzie an INFJ.
Prom and Prejudice takes us to the Private schools of Longburn Academy for Girls and Pemberley Academy for Boys. It's that time again for the event of the season - Prom and at Longburn Academy, the Prom is the social standing invitation of the year. We see familiar names in familiar roles as we have Lizzie Bennett - a scholarship student at Longburn Academy, her friend Charlotte Lucas - the other scholarship student , Jane and her sister Lydia - Lizzie's friends , Charles and Caroline Bingley , Will Darcy, Will Fitzpatrick, Wick aka George Wickham , Georgiana and Colin. All names that we are familiar with. The story starts with Jane in love with Charles Bingley - Lizzie being the gracious friend accompanies Jane to a dance where she meets Darcy and as soon as he finds out she is a scholarship student , it is downhill from there. Angry at herself for thinking Darcy was different , Lizzie throws herself into her work at the local Java Hutt where she meets Wick - Darcy's ex-best friend - eager to think he is just like her, she befriends him putting the rift between her and Darcy even wider. As the tale goes on , we see that maybe Lizzie did misjudge Darcy and that the two of them are perfect together or as they are only in school - for now. Will Will Darcy escort Lizzie to the Prom or does he know better than to ask her ?
Will Lizzie's Pride as a Scholarship student and Will's prejudice against them stand in their way of connecting or will a connection be still possible to form?
Find out in Elizabeth Eulberg's Prom and Prejudice :)

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...
