Review: The Forest of Shadow and Bones - Book #1 Guardian Academy - Jessica Sorensen - December 2016


This particular author I would love to rave about this as she is one that I have loved in every book she has written, but at the same time this author frustrates the hell out of me and so I end up with a love/hate relationship as I find she either doesn't finish her series or she will reprint them under a different name and have half a dozen books for the same series yet it never feels complete. The other thing for me is this is one of the authors that I read when I don't know what to read but just want to read as I know for certain that her books will grab me. I knew I had read some books that had to do with the Guardian Academy as some of the characters sounded familiar like Dash's twin brother Jax. In The Forest of Shadow and Bones, we meet Dash who ends up in a bit of a situation as one of the powerful females Viv who he was once bonded tries to kill him when he disobeys. However, instead of being left completely dead, he is in limbo status and the Reaper gives him a piece of advice as these people don't want Viv to win the war if she does it screams disaster for plenty of the supernatural creatures in the universe. He needs to find Sway as she holds the map to the Forest of Shadow and Bones. Once in the forest, he can gain his body and powers back. The thing is though that Sway is a regular human who can see and talk to ghosts, or so she thinks. Not having any family, she doesn't know much about her abilities. What will happen when she meets with Dash and her eyes and world are open wide? Will she help Dash get to the Forest of Shadow and Bones or will she try to remain hidden and live life as a normal teen? Find out in Book #1 of The Guardian Academy - Dash's series by Jessica Sorensen.

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
