Review : Addicted - Book #1 Dark Road Series - Krys Fenner - 2014
I had grabbed this book due
to the cover as it seemed quite a dark and edgy book and the cover is pretty
amazing. As I read the book we meet Bella who seems to be stalked by an anonymous person who loves leaving her gifts; she also has captured the attention of
three schoolmates - David, Peter, and Jeremiah. When I read this, I often laugh as seriously how realistic is it to
go from someone who has never had a boyfriend in her seventeen almost eighteen
years of life and then all of a sudden have multiple guys interested in her and
all wanting her at once. Addicted was a complicated read as I found myself in
parts getting confused as apparently, a
tragedy happened to her in church when she was little with a kid beating her up
bad when she offered to help and said something nice to him. Like where were the adults? Now older, she gets jumped in the alley
and brutally raped, and then her life
starts to go downhill as she discovers people are after her and want her to
themselves and those she loves dead. We also learned briefly that she was adopted and wonder if it has anything to do
with her birth parents. I have to admit I found this book a bit too much over
the place for me and then when I finished as the book ends on a cliffhanger. I started to read the preview for the next
book Damaged - only to discover as it sounded familiar that I had already read
Book #2 a couple of years ago in September 2015 which then led me to discover
that Addicted is a reprint of Book #1 which was originally called Destroyed in
2014.
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...
It's time for serial killer time to strike again with Sean Slater's new Detective Jacob Striker novel out titled with the same name as a popular children's game "Snakes and Ladders". Review: Snakes and Ladders - Detective Jacob Striker Book #2 - Sean Slater - March 2012 It's amazing how much a cover can get you to read a book and then you discover, well I actually like this author as I picked up Sean Slater's first book "The Survivor" due to the fact that the cover had a hockey mask and reminded me of Friday the 13th and I really enjoyed the novel as well as the fact it was a school shooting which for some reason I enjoy reading about as it fascinates me ( just to add - I'm not pyschotic LOL) . When I discovered Sean Slater had a new one coming out, I picked it up and was again fascinated and drawn in as he had chosen another angle and field that I am interested in probably due to the fact that my dad works in that industry of mental health...
