Successful? Or An Epic Failure?!?!

Hover by Melissa West:

Ari is now part alien and en route to save both the humans and the Leogans. Between the physical and emotional struggles through this thriller you won't be able to put this compelling sequel to Gravity down.
*Mind over matter*
Will she ever succeed this cliff hanging story and be reunited with her family and friends back on earth?????
The 3rd book is pre-ordered and now all I have to do is patiently wait.....

Is it December yet?!?!?!??!?

A Way Out? Or Just Another Corner?!?!

Radicals By Frankie Rose:

This novel that followed Halo went by way too quickly. Sincerely! Even when I tried to postpone and quit reading for a few days, I just couldn't keep myself away.
All I have to say to Frankie is- there best be a third book coming our way soon or I am just going to wither away into nothing. Haha.
Frankie definitely knows how to play all sides of the field and keep you guessing that's for sure. It's a novel that will keep you on your toes. Leave you fighting for every character and their freedom.
I'll keep it short and sweet since it's a sequel but if you like dystopian novels.... this is an absolute must read!!!!

A Dark Twist? Or A Spiral Downward?!

A.G Howard’s book Unhinged (sequel to Splintered) is nothing short of magical. It’s gotten a bit darker, slightly more chaotic, and even more alluring! 

A.G Howard has a sight for detail and imagination bringing life to Wonderland’s creatures through her mastership of writing. I got excited every time I delved back into the book, never wanting to reach the end.

That being said….. I MUST SAY: “There best be another book in the works!” 

I need to know what has happened to everyone that is in Wonderland. I’m dying to find out. I’d have to say this sequel may have, by far, surpassed it’s first counterpart.

The characters… the scenery… the emotion and mood. It’s savage, fervent, and inspiring. 

She has the knack to write and I cannot wait to see more from her.

The Mortal Instruments 2&3 by Cassandra Clare

City Of Ashes

My Lord have mercy it only gets better!!!! The second book flew..... the dangers... the emotions. If it keeps on going she may be considered the Stephen King of the super natural world. It's captivating... enthralling... exquisite in capturing the struggles outside and within the characters.
If only I could crawl into the pages into the Shadowhunter realm. I would completely fall in love with a lycanthrope...vamp... or a shadowhunter. I don't think I'd want to come back to reality. ONTO THE THIRD!!!!
P.S. way to leave us hanging at the end of book 2!!!!

City of Glass

Sincerely entertaining and epically Earth shattering... The ever evolving world of the paranormal has come to a righteous stand where Cassandra should be standing proud and tall.

To find a book series so intoxicating is rare and should be cherished. With each book I move onto I get more and more nervous that it may not be as good as the one prior but I can proudly/happily say I have been more than satisfied. Always left wanting more! I don't want to give anything away but she threw such a curve ball.... I had to set the book down to yell with excitement, via facebook, to the coworker/friend who recommended this series.

A Love Story? OR A Tragic Ending?!?!?! Carrie Nyman-Why Aren't You Sweet Like Me?

Carrie writes us a love story based on her own grandparents! How neat first off. I've always thought of writing stories based on people I know and stories they've told me. Some of the most interesting things I've heard, that I can't even believe is real, have been from real people I've met or know(n). She takes us into love within the heart of World War II. 
The innocence of the characters and the simplicity way of life back then is so refreshing. Not that it was necessarily easier but I feel as though this world gets caught up into things that aren't tangible... that don't really matter in the end. It's a good book to curl up with on a winters night or on vacation. I liked that she based the novel on her family even though she may have changed pats here or there it makes it even more of a great book and story within itself. 
There are a few grammatical errors but it doesn't hinder the story. It started out for me at a slow pace. I wasn't sure if I was falling in love with the characters to the point where I couldn't put the book down. But toward the middle and for sure in the end I can feel the emotion and passion within her story and I didn't want it to end. I'm glad I kept reading. 
I think the voices of the characters are pretty awesome. We get distinct accents, which at times I had to go back and read to understand but it wasn't frustrating, it actually made me giggle because I could just about hear what these people were saying. And I love me some accents. I can listen to people with unique accents speak all day. 
It's a heartwarming story, unique. It makes you humble in how blessed we each truly are in how medicine and life has progressed. It makes us grateful for the family and friends, the love that surrounds us and is undying.
