The Upside of Falling (Blue Line Duet, #1)


Review: The Upside of Falling - Book #1 Blue Line Duet - Meghan Quinn - June 2018
This book surprised me with the ending, it made me actually mad and angry and I was felt so sorry for Colby. I was like WTH, how could she do this to him? Does she not have a caring bone in her body as she couldn't even write him a Dear John letter. This book starts off with Colby whose dad is dying and a dream that a little boy shared with both his father and grandfather - to become the best jet fighter pilot in the world. Colby couldn't wait to join the airforce and had only that goal in mind. That was until his best friend dragged him along to a party where he met a girl. He tried to be cold and shake her off but she stuck to him like glue and as the weeks passed he couldn't get her out of his head. The two begin exchanging letters and eventually start a long distance romance. Things are going amazing until Colby gets into his dream school and has to make a decision. He was willing to stay behind to be with her, but she pushes him to stay on track and that she would wait.  What a freaking liar. I have to admit by the end of this book I really was hating Rory as she pushed him into the decision, so why couldn't she stay freaking faithful. I now am in two minds about reading the last book in the duet as I don't want to hear the excuses about how things happened and why. The Upside of Falling by Meghan Quinn does end on a cliffhanger.

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...
