Review: The Ledge - Christian White - September 2024

For the past couple of years, I have participated in readalongs for Tandem Collective Global and they are I find hit/miss titles. The Ledge by Christian White, I was looking forward to as I do love my thrillers but at the same time, I wasn't sure what to expect as I had never read any of his titles. Well, what can I say is that everyone needs to read this book as it is amazing. If you also love thrillers that you are surprised with and the twists you don't see coming, then The Ledge is one of those books you immediately need to add to your reading lists. This book starts in the present time with a body being found in the woods and then flashbacks to 1999 where we meet our four friends Aaron, Justin, Chen, and Leeson. They are inseparable and a close brotherhood, so much so that their friendship reminded me of the boys from Stand By Me or the girls from Now and Then movies. The book follows our narrator as he heads back home to the small town where he grew up and is faced with the demons and people of his past as years ago they made a pact never to speak about what happened on the ledge those many moons ago and now with the body being found, they must ensure that the blood pact they made still holds up. What happened in 1999 on The Ledge? This was an awesome thriller and as I said before even after finishing it a few days ago - the last couple of chapters are still playing in my head.  I am now looking forward to reading more of Christian White's books starting with The Nowhere Child.

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
