Review – Savannah Grey by Cliff McNish

Title – Savannah Grey Author – Cliff McNish Genre – YA Fantasy Romance Pages – 234 This book didn’t do it for me… So here is a synopsis from Goodreads, especially for you my fellow bloggers… 15 year old Savannah Grey has never felt she’s belonged. She keeps her distance, so she’s surprised by her attraction to the new boy Reece. Then strange things begin to happen: nature, it seems, is exerting an overpowering force on the world. Birds behave strangely; gusts of wind blow leaves so fiercely they seem to lure people away. And Savannah learns she has supernatural powers. Nature […]

Review – Poison Heart by S.B. Hayes

Title – Poison Heart Author – S.B. Hayes Genre – YA Contemporary Romance Pages – 360 This is the second book in my Sunday Showcase (#1) , Poison Hear by S.B. Hayes. This is another type of YA a book that gripped me from the start… Not just the cover, which looks great but the general storyline and plot of the book just seemed fresh and new from what I usually read. It was amazing… I’ll let my synopsis explain for itself… Luminous green eyes stare at her from the opposite bus; they both state at each other…that’s where it all begins. […]

Review – Every Other Day by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Title – Every Other Day  Author – Jennifer Lynn Barnes Genre – YA Paranormal Romance Pages – 336 The first book of my Sunday Showcase (#1) is Every Other Day by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. This is the first book I have read by this author and she gave me a very good impression of her style of writing and her use of YA and Paranormal genre into her book. She is best known for Raised by Wolves, have you ever read this book, let me know?! As part of re-kindling myself with YA fiction, I went through the shelf of […]

Review – After Eden by Katherine Pike

Title – After Eden (Fallen Angels Book 1#) Author – Katherine Pike Genre – YA Paranormal Romance Pages – 319 This is another recommendation from the Kindle Store and it is something different to the usual YA novel I enjoy. You can see a common trait in the books I have purchased on the Kindle Store, they simple, easy and have a great storyline. Don’t let the cheap books on the Kindle store fool you, they are brilliant! 😀 The cover is very interesting yet it doesn’t show the storyline for the novel. I think this excerpt shows you what […]

Review – The Mayfair Moon by J.A. Redmerski

Title – The Mayfair Moon (The Darkwoods Trilogy 1#) Author – J.A. Redmerski Genre – Paranormal Romance Pages – 352 Sorry guys, I have had so much college work and results that I have slowed on my reviews but these are the books that I was meaning to review last week… This is another book I got off the Kindle recommendations and it didn’t disappoint. I have to stay I’m a not a fan of werewolf novel of the Paranormal, I’m more of a vamp girl to be honest. The synopsis compelled me to read the book… Adria Dawson is […]

Review – Blood Warrior by H.D. Gordon

Title – Blood Warrior (The Alexa Montogomery Saga 1#) Author – H.D. Gordon Genre – Paranormal Romance Pages – 263 I have to admit this is another book from the Kindle Store recommended to me from purchasing The Vampire Manifesto. Just from the look of the cover, I would imagine, like yourselves that you may disregard the book, and give it a chance to read it, that’s what I did until I read the synopsis. Alexa Montgomery is not an ordinary teenager as much as she wants to be – she has more strength, agility and stamina than anyone else. […]

Review – Bared to You by Sylvia Day

Title – Bared to You (A Crossfire Novel) Author – Sylvia Day Genre – Erotica Pages – 352 I have to admit that I am an FSoG Fan! So when I saw the recommendations for others of that genre, this was the one book that grabbed my attention. It was also a book that had the highest reviews commenting the written skills and general plot of the novel… Eva Stanton has just started her job at the advertising and marketing in Crossfire Industries, she has her bisexual roommate and best friend Cary Taylor a model. When Eva starts her first […]
