Review: Turkey Monster Thanksgiving - Anne Warren Smith- September 2011
Living in New Zealand , we don't celebrate Thanksgiving , so I am always fascinated by stories and tales of Thanksgiving because I believe it is an awesome idea to give thanks and acknowledge those who we came from. Turkey Monster Thanksgiving is the perfect story for girls aged 7-9yrs and follows the story of Katie . Every Thanksgiving, since Katie's mum left to become a famous country singer has been them in their pyjamas all day, eating pizza and watching the big football game on TV - just the three of them Katie, Her dad and baby brother Tyler. However this year , Katie is suddenly aware that they are not having a proper thanksgiving as Claire - a girl who Katie walks home with -her and her father are putting on a big Thanksgiving Dinner for forty people. Katie feeling a bit left out and jealous decides to throw her own party but when things get a bit out of hand as Katie doesn't tell her dad till last minute , it seems that the thanksgiving may be a disaster and especially since Katie has gotten the thought into Tyler's head that Turkeys are really monsters in disguise that eat little boys. Can Katie with the help of her dad turn their small Thanksgiving meal into a dinner with a few friends or will it turn to Disaster ?

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
