Review: Notes from Ghost Town - Kate Ellison - February 2013
When I first picked up Notes from Ghost Town I wasn't sure what to expect , I had in mind that there would be a mystery aspect but other than that who knew. What I did get was an amazing story which covered not only ghosts, murder but also conspiracy and mental illnesses. The story starts with Olivia and her best friend Lucas Stern out playing and then they kiss , that would be the last time she saw him as the following week he would be dead and even worst her mother would be arrested for his murder. Ten months have passed , Olivia has been colorblind blind since the incident and is worried that she is catching her mother's mental illness - Schizophrenia. The novel then jumps to ten days before her mother's sentencing and she is met by Stern's ghost who tells her that her mother didn't kill him and that in order for him to cross to the other side , she has to help solve his murder. From there we read as Kate unscrambles a whole conspiracy and coverup and discovers that her mother is being framed. Who really killed Stern and why are they adamant to put Olivia's mum away for murder ?
Notes from a Ghost Town was a fast and enjoyable read and anyone who loves mystery novels will enjoy the chase that Kate Ellison develops .

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
