Review: Lying about Last Summer - Sue Wallman- May 2016

I had seen a posting on Instagram for one of this author's books and so I decided to head to the Libby library app and see what books were available the first one I grabbed was Lying About Last Summer by Sue Wallman. This book starts with two sisters Skye and her older sister Luisa. Luisa has been home with her boyfriend Nico, they fought and now another guy has come over. Luisa sends Skye away to protect her, but what will happen when Luisa ends up dead? Skye freezes and now her big sister is gone. The book then jumps to a new summer and it's been a year since Luisa died. Skye has been signed up for a Yellows Camp which helps other bereaved teens who have lost someone close to them. What happens though when Skye logs in to the private chat that she shared with her sister and starts receiving messages from her dead sister? Is it her sister or is someone messing with her? Also at the camp, we have creepy Joe who I do wish we could have seen a bit more of his storyline and his real connection to Kyra as he seemed a bit off right through the novel which Skye jumps onto pretty quickly. Can Skye save her new friend Faye from the same death as Joe's previous girlfriend? Find out in this great YA Thriller about death, grief, and moving on and I look forward to reading Sue Wallman's other titles.

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
