Right Princess (Modern Princess Collection, #3)

Review: Right Princess - Modern Princess Collection #3 - Autumn Archer - May 2020

I am loving this series - the Modern Princess Collection. The Right Princess by Autumn Archer is a fairytale rendition and loosely based on The Princess and the Pea. In Right Princess, we meet Ada who is head over heels in love with her best friend and roommate Kitty's brother Cicero. Ada has always been a spoiled princess and friends wanted to get close to her due to her parents' wealth. Once starting at college, she decided not to tell anyone about who she was and got a job at the local bar The Reef where her new boss Theo becomes one of her closest confidantes. We see that of course, Theo is head over heels in love with Ada but her eyes and obsessions are fixated on Cicero. Especially since she has been told that to inherit her family's company Rarity she must marry someone as wealthy as her.  We have a lot of back and fro'ing with a love triangle between Ada, Theo, and Ro. I was wondering how this book was going to be related to The Princess and the Pea but about halfway through you start to see little easter eggs relating to the original tale. I have to admit I did get frustrated with Ada as it was like hurry up and tell Theo how you feel and then Theo at times was like a spoilt little kid himself with the occasional tantrums he threw. 
Overall though I did enjoy Right Princess and now looking forward to reading the other books in the Modern Princess Collection. Fans of Fairytales and those who love renditions and variants of the stories will love Right Princess by Autumn Archer.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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

  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...
