Review: Parallel - Book #1 Parallel Series - Elizabeth O'Roark - June 2019
All her life, Quinn has had dreams of a romance with a person named Nick. It is like she has lived another life. When she was younger, her mum put it down to an imaginary friend, but as she got older, it became more constant, and eventually, Quinn was sent to therapy for her strange behavior. Nobody could explain to her what was going on. As the years went by, Quinn decided to suck up and keep her dreams to herself as she didn't want people to think she was weird. Now years later, Quinn is engaged and preparing for her wedding when she gets a sudden hint of Deja Vu. However, this time, it is powerful and knocks her out. When she awakes the name she calls is Nick. Of course, that's not her fiance's name. They end up taking Quinn to the hospital where she is seen by a Dr. Nick Reilly,  to Quinn's amazement this is the guy from her dreams - her world she finds is her true self, and Nick discovers this is the girl he has dreamed about for years. As the book goes on, we learn a bit about time traveling which reminded me of The Time Traveller's Wife and JJ McAvoy’s Malachi and I. I have to admit I hated the back and forth that went on with their respective partners, especially Quinn's fiance - it's like hurry up Quinn and dump him, he's not right for you. Soon Quinn will find out more about the truth of her parallel universes and time traveling and that the reason she and Nick keep missing each other is that somebody doesn't want them to be happy. Who in Quinn's life is keeping them apart and can they figure it out before this current life of Quinn's is cut short? Find out in this fantastic read Parallel and stay tuned for Book #2 Intersect coming in late June as Parallel does end in a major 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...
