Stateless (Stateless, #1)

Review: Stateless - Book #1 Stateless Series - Meli Raine - October 2019



 Readers of Meli Raine's series will know how she writes three books in a series and then a new series is created which spin-offs from the previous series but still following the same storyline. This is a series I have been following for a few years now ever since I discovered A Harmless Little Game back in November 2016. I have to admit because I have been a big fan of this series, I was looking really excited to Stateless but it fell short for me. As the last series finished we learned that Seamus McDuff's brother Wyatt was kidnapped and put into the Stateless program and worked with Romeo who was also Stateless. They had a brief sight of each other in the sex club. Stateless goes back to the beginning where we meet Callum, Glen, and Kina. Callum is the star pupil along with Glen - the Star. Glen's twin sister Kina - Mule is seen as weak because she cares and shows empathy. We read as Glen is jealous of Kina as she knows Callum loves her and shows her compassion. Once their training is complete Glen and Callum are sent into the field and Kina is left behind. Nine years pass and they have returned home. Callum is now in charge after Romeo's death and Glen is the new Anya - working for the President as his secretary. Callum learns that everything they told him about Stateless was a lie and he needs Kina's help, but will she be easy to convince especially since she has been fed nine years of lies while Callum has been away and isn't the same girl he said goodbye too. This book ended on a cliffhanger with Callum and Kina discovering their real identities and of course Callum learns that he is Wyatt and wants to find his brother but the book finishes with the sentence "I'll find my brother after I kill my target - Seamus McDuff" - this made me scream AARGH. I now can't wait to read Book #2 Traceless.

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
