Review: Uninvited - Book #1 Uninvited Series - Sophie Jordan - January 2014

Uninvited is a new dystopian series brought to you by Sophie Jordan and a series that I look forward to reading as more are released. In Davy's world (that's the girl on the cover) people are being tested for a genetic gene known as The Kill Gene. Once identified with the Kill gene these people are placed as outcasts to the world , these are the ones who will if not stopped become the criminals of the future. All her life , Davy has looked at them and thought they were not like her - how could she be one of them when she is a good girl, gets top grades and is a musical prodigy destined to attend Julliard. All that changes in a blink of an eye, when she is tested positive for the Kill Gene and finds herself "uninvited" from her old life. Even those she thought were her friends and loved ones have turned their backs on her and Davy finds herself lumped in a classroom with others who have all tested positive. Some are branded with an "H" which means that they have displayed violent outbursts and soon Davy finds herself also wearing the "H". Her world stops and she feels alone until she meets Sean and Gill. Two guys who have also been tested positive. Soon all with the Kill Gene are being transported to either a "training facility" or "detention camp". Davy finds herself at the facility along with Sean and Gil and meets Sabine. Together can the four of them plan a way out of this life or will they be caught and chucked in the "detention camp" with the realisation that life will never ever be the same again.

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...
