Who We Were

Review: Who We Were - B.M Carroll - May 2020

This book drew me in from the cover with the broken lollipop and then reading the back with a 20th High School Reunion, I knew I would love it as I love these type of books with a revenge twist as one of my favorite horror movies is Valentine where the bullied victim from High School gets revenge on those popular girls who made his life hell during a reunion. This book starts with Katy Burch organizing a reunion and getting in touch with some of her old classmates and we get a glimpse of where they ended up and whether they met some of their goals from school. One of Katy's ideas was to make a modern yearbook about their lives these days, someone though has hijacked this idea and sending out Q and A's of their own and these are threatening the classmates as their dark and dirty secrets are coming to light. We have single woman Katy who secretly wants to have a baby with her gay classmate Luke whom she forever had a crush on, Luke who dreamed of being a broadway star and ended up a flight attendant who loves to get wasted, Annabel who was the Queen B and Jarrod her boyfriend who ended up teen parents and now dealing with a druggie son, Grace and her four kids and police officer husband Tom, Zach who was a bully and class clown who had a change of heart and now a Doctor, Good Guy and a father of a Down Syndrome child, Melissa who got her chance to rule as a CEO but her marriage though is less to be desired and then Robbie - the boy they all bullied and made his life a living hell. I loved the twists and turns of this novel and did not see the ending coming. If you love mysteries and revenge to those who deserved it, then check out Who We Were - an Australian novel by Aussie author B.M Carroll.

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
