Review: Whispers and the Roars - K. Webster - December 2016

As people who know me will remember that I am an avid book buyer and have books that have been on my to-read list for years and Whispers and Roars by K Webster was one of those books.  This one I also went in blind and at first was confused but then as I got reading, it blew me away as I was presented with an edgy read about mental illnesses and different alters. This book is told from two perspectives we have Kady - our main female character and Yeo - the main male character. Yeo fell in love with Kady when they were children and then like everything else, Kady thought she didn't deserve him and so she pushed him away. However, this didn't deter Yeo as he has always loved Kady for exactly who she is. I was a little confused at first especially when it came to Bones and then the OMG factor when we learned that Yeo was also sleeping with Bones - I was like is he bisexual? Then all is revealed in the last half of the book and without spoiling, it will blow your mind as you are like WOAH horsie, and ah, that makes so much sense now in parts and then other parts you are wrapping your head around as you wonder how the outside world would have viewed Kady and no wonder they thought she was crazy. In the last few years, I have found K Webster moving more towards MM stories whereas since this was published originally in 2016 - I felt like I was reading an OG K. Webster as this was the story and writing edge that I fell in love with when it came to her books.  If you love dark romance, edginess, and mental illnesses and don't mind triggers of various abuse, then you will enjoy the powerful read that is Whispers and Roars.

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
