Uninvited (South Hills Sidekicks, #1)

Review: South Hills Sidekicks - Uninvited - Leah Spiegel and Meg Summers - February 2012

Scrolling through my kindle and trying to clear my older books, I came across this older YA read. Opening it, I didn't know what it was going to be about but had an idea of a fun YA read. It ended up being more of a YA thriller series, similar to Pretty Little Liars but with a more light-hearted YA teen flick feel to it. This book starts with the new school year for best friends Alley, Val, Kirsten, Kayla, and Libby. This is going to be their year as Kirsten is planning a sweet 18-year-old birthday party and all is going well. There is even a new hottie at school who seems to have Alley's attention, no matter how hard she tries to fight it. I liked this book as Alley's best friend Val is clumsy AF and she makes me laugh. The book gets a bit more interesting when their friend Kirsten is discovered missing and the girls led by Val decide to investigate. While doing so, they find out there is an undercover officer in their school who is trying to uncover a drug dealer. What happens though when the girls get a little too close to stumbling over the truth and one of them finds themselves kidnapped as well? Can Alley work together with the newcomer to find her best friends Val and Kirsten? This first book was a good read and does make you wonder how well you know the people you hang out with and sleep with. I am now looking forward to reading the rest of this series and finding out what other mayhem the group of friends aka South Hills Sidekicks get up to.

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
