Review: School Monitor - Alex Dunn - August 2016

Richard and Chrissie are fraternal twins and Richard has always felt protective over his twin sister Chrissie especially more so these days as at their old school, Chrissie ended up being bullied and tried to commit suicide and Richard blames himself as the girl was his best friend. This book starts with the twins having to move to another new school and a boarding one at that as their father has a new job and wants Richard to befriend his boss's son Spencer. Richard's current girlfriend Beth can't stand Chrissie and tries to warn Richard how manipulative she is but he doesn't listen. Instead, he begs Beth to give Chrissie a makeover for their new school. The twins start and soon Chrissie has found a new friend with Spencer and Richard is busy joining new clubs. That is until he is accused of stealing and this then spirals to Richard breaking "the code" which is a private school way of life. You know the age-old of what happens in school, stays in school. As the book goes along, we see Chrissie rising and Richard getting bullied even worse and the pinnacle of the story is we see Richard on his death bed. With none of his family believing him, can Richard get his old friends Beth, Stew, and Dave to help him prove to the world and his parents that Chrissie and Spencer are behind everything before it's too late and the tables are reversed and Richard starts thinking suicide is his only option? Find out in this edgy YA novel "School Monitor" by Alex Dunn.

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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
