Review: Faking Normal - Courtney C. Stevens - February 2014

Imagine if you had to keep a big secret knowing that it was killing you inside but the consequences of the secret getting out would hurt more people than just yourself ? That the effect of the secret getting out would cause a domino chain of events.  So with only one thing left to do , you have to fake normalcy. Alexi Littrell was hurt over summer but never said anything about who it was that hurt her. Bodee aka The Kool-Aid Kid due to his ever changing hair colours that he dyes using Kool Aid packets also suffered a tragedy this summer. He watched his father murder his mother in cold blood. Each of these two are going to have to stay strong and figure out a way to act and fake being normal if they want to make it through the school year. Enter the idea of Captain Lyric - both Bodee and Alexi sit during different periods at the same desk , though none of them realise . Each lesson one of them will either A) write new song lyrics and B) finish off the previous lyrics . The lyrics represent their feelings, emotions, days actions , a seductive conversation between the two of them. What happens when Bodee begins to see through Alexis's facade , can he help her confront her demons and tell the truth of what happened to her and in tune Can Alexi help Bodee gain the courage he needs to testify against his dad in his mother's murder case ?
Find out in an Upcoming Feb 2014 release by Courtney C. Stevens.

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...
