Review: When Audrey Met Alice - Rebecca Behrens - February 2014

If you are a fan of movies like myself, then you would have watched both of the above movies - I have numerous times and own them both on DVD. Reading Rebecca's book reminded me of the movies as her book is based on Audrey who is a First Daughter and living in the White House , in When Audrey Met Alice , her mum is the President of the USA and Audrey begins to feel restricted and lonely - so one day she heads off to search for hidden nooks and crannies and discovers a box filled with goodies. Upon further look and investigation , she discovers that the box belonged to Alice Roosevelt - the eldest daughter of the president Teddy Roosevelt back in 1906. Soon Audrey will start reading Alice's journal and with Alice's help find a way to express herself and finally get her parents to realise that she can't stay cooped up in the White House all her life.  This was a fun read and can be read from Ages 13+ .

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...
