Nocturnal Meetings of the Misplaced


Review: Nocturnal Meetings of the Misplaced - RJ Garcia - May 2018
In the mood for a weird read? Nocturnal Meetings of the Misplaced is the book for you as it starts off with Finn and his younger sister going to live with their mother's brother after her latest relapse in the small town where his mother grew up. He remembers hearing weird tales of his mother's life growing up and is about to discover that these stories have more truth than fiction to them.  Tommy meets Finn, Silence, and Annie who are sort of outcasts in the community but welcome Tommy with open arms. Tommy will soon find himself in the role of protector as Finn's dad the sheriff is abusive towards Finn and his mother and Silence's mother hasn't been herself since Silence was born. All Silence has of her mother's past is an old yellowed note and asks Tommy to help her find out the truth behind the note. This will lead Tommy and his sister Annie to their grandparent's house, where Tommy will discover the horrors of what happens in their basement and by doing so will solve a lot of the unsolved murder cases that have happened in the town.  Nocturnal Meetings of the Misplaced was an interesting smalltown read where secrets are what keeps people glued together and sometimes you need an outsider to come in and dig for those secrets to be out and the open in order to gain freedom.

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...
