Review: Cancelled - Farrah Penn - March 2024

You ever get in those moods where you want to read something, but the books you keep picking up, just don't hold your interest, and then wham bam - third time lucky. You find a book that isn't just holding your interest but it's an amazing read and turns out to be a 5-star read. That was me on Saturday morning with Cancelled by Farrah Penn. I first tried a couple of thrillers on the Libby App and then clicked on this book and loved it. Imagine the movies Easy A and Saved and you will have Cancelled. The book starts with our main female Brynn being a flirting coach and a bit of a Cyrano De Bergerac as she helps people write the perfect flirting messages and she's great at it too. That is until at a Halloween party, she not only breaks up with her boyfriend but someone has taken a picture of a person in a banana suit giving a guy a BJ. The guy is Duncan who is the boyfriend of Brynn's ex-best friend Lenora. Brynn is innocent but as she finds out at school on Monday, no one believes her how can the flirting queen and serial dater be innocent? The thing too is that Brynn is still a virgin as having sex is painful for her. Brynn gets labeled a slut and relationship wrecker among other things and finds herself the center of attention for the wrong reasons. She is determined to clear her name along with the help of her close friends and two new friends Charlie and Cadence. The ones who believe her. As she does this, she will also inadvertently create a feminist revolution club, go up against the Abstinence Angels ( this was the part that reminded me of the two films), and also help other females stand up for what is right and for all those times they have been dismissed by a male or told they were a distraction.  Cancelled by Farrah Penn were an amazing read and a book that I suggest every female who has ever felt attacked for being themselves should read.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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...
