Review: Truly, Madly, Deadly - Hannah Jayne - July 2013


One of my favorite YA thriller authors is Hannah Jayne and this book was another great read. The book starts with Sawyer Dodd's boyfriend Kevin Anderson who has died in a car accident. People are expecting Sawyer to be torn up, she is in two minds on the night of Kevin's death -Sawyer had, had enough as Kevin was physically abusing her and she never told a soul. Back at school, Sawyer finds a note in her locker attached to Kevin's obituary - "You're Welcome". Was Kevin's death an accident or did someone kill him for her? Hannah slowly shrugs it off but then a teacher sexually harasses her and then he turns up dead, along with another note. As more people die who wronged Sawyer at one point and then her stepmother is hurt - this is starting to scare Sawyer. Who though can she turn to if she goes to the police, then bad things can happen to the ones she loves? I had an inkling but then when the killer was revealed, it did surprise me as to the direction that the story took.  Fans of Natasha Preston and Natalie D. Richards will love this author. If YA thrillers are your jam, then add Hannah Jayne to your must-read authors list.

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
