The Darkest Corners

Review: The Darkest Corners - Kara Thomas - April 2016

One author that I have enjoyed when it comes to YA thrillers is Kara Thomas as I have read quite a lot of her books this year, trying to clear my kindle and eBooks. In the Darkest Corners, we meet Tessa whose father has just died in prison. Tessa has gone back to her hometown to visit but of course, that comes with bad memories of the serial killer Wyatt Stokes who was put into prison with Tessa and Callie's testimony. What happens though if it wasn't Wyatt who killed Lori? Is Wyatt innocent? For Tessa, that night 10 years ago not only saw the murder of Lori but the disappearance of her mum Annette and her older sister Joslin. In a flash, Tessa's family was gone and she went to live with her grandmother. Now back in Fayette though, things aren't quite adding up about that night and she has a weird suspicion it is related to her sister and mother and now with the help of her old friends Callie and Decker, she will try and find the answers she needs to finally put some old ghosts at rest. Is Tessa ready for the consequences as by reopening old wounds, she has stirred a pandora's box, and will she be able to accept what she finds? Like Kara's other books, The Darkest Corners have several different storylines going on that all interconnect with one another and at times can be an overwhelming and busy book as a whole. The Darkest Corners is a good read if you enjoy missing persons, murder, and secrets people will kill for.

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
