Review: The Reunion - Kayla Olson - January 2023

You know those moments when you want to read, but nothing seems to hit the spot and then all of a sudden you find a book that does it for you? That's how I felt with Kayla Olson's The Reunion. It also brought memories of various TV shows I have seen that have done reunion shows like 90210 Beverley Hills and Punky Brewster which I enjoyed as well as Girl Meets World. It also made me think of shows I loved when I was younger that a reunion show would be awesome like Sweet Valley High, Seventh Heaven, or Step By Step. In this book, it's been twenty years since the hit TV Show Girl on the Verge aired on television. After the show finished each of the cast went on to do their own thing also losing touch with one another. For Liv who played the female lead Honor, she lost her best friend Ransom who played the male lead Duke. The feelings though now being reunited as strong as ever as we watch the sparks and chemistry sizzle not only on screen but off screen. With the rise and pressures of Hollywood, is the power couple ready to brace the public scrutiny of their relationship- something they weren't ready for twenty years ago? We also read as Millie who played the youngest sister is now a popular Pop Star and Sasha-Kate is still our backstabbing jealous female character as they say some people never change their stripes and spots. The Reunion by Kayla Olson was not only a fast-paced quick read but one that if you love the behind-the-scenes of TV shows and Hollywood you will enjoy.  Think LA Conrad's Sweet Little Lies series mixed with Beverley Hills 90210 and you have The Reunion by Kayla Olson.

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
