A Girl From Forever

Review: A Girl From Forever - Book #1 The Forever Institute - Yolanda McCarthy - August 2021


I wasn't sure what to expect with this book, but it had sounded interesting when I decided to sign up with Xpresso Book Tours. The author had contacted me as well, but seeing as I was signed up for the tour, I would read it anyway. Going into books blind is sometimes the best way to read as you don't have those expectations built up. This book starts with our main character Fern who has been communicating with someone on the outside - Rehan. It starts as a set-up to find out what is going on in the institute but for Fern and both Rehan, it will be an awakening where they will learn that everything that they have been taught was wrong and that they have both been brainwashed as truths, lies, and secrets are revealed. When Fern and Rehan decide not to return to the Forever Institute, Fern finds herself in danger as her friends are sent to "rescue" her but, of course, she doesn't need rescuing. I enjoyed A Girl From Forever, as it reminded me of the early Dystopians that were released back in the mid-2000s-2010 when the dystopian craze started up again for YA readers. I am looking forward to seeing the route that this series takes, especially with the data getting into the other students' hands- how exciting and them finding their own Anna like Fern found hers.

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
