My thoughts… This is the first book by Author Sara Fawkes that I’ve read.

I liked both of the main characters and some of the secondary characters. Lacey has had a rough life the last few years. After her father dies her mother packs herself, Lacey, and Lacey’s little brother […]

My thoughts… The perfect ending to a beautiful love story. I’m so happy that I’ve was given the opportunity to read and review this novella. I’ve been patiently waiting for it to be released. I really liked Promise Me This which is book one in this series. To say I had really high hopes for this novella would be an understatement. Initially Promise Me Forever was suppose to be a full novel, but somewhere along […]

I’m like a Sofia Coppola film. I love pop music, pop culture, trendy clothes, and glittery, sparkly, never-ending-shimmery things. On sunny days you can find me driving to work with my sun roof open, jamming Britney Spears and admiring how my freshly painted nails contrast with my gold steering wheel cover. The truth is, I LOVE bubble gum pink, Chanel lipstick, and pretty things. So does Gia. Sounds superficial, right? But zoom in on the […]

First off… Tenley & Hayden. I love these names. They aren’t overused character names and I love that. I’ve been told that this series is twilight fan fiction. Honestly I’m not exactly sure what that means. The characters have different names. The setting is different. I think the overall storyline is unique and I loved this book and it’s characters. Both Tenley & Hayden are broken. They’ve both suffered a great loss in their short […]

My thoughts… Yay! Finally Owen’s book. Seems like I’ve been waiting a very long time for this one. Owen is Fables brother of course. If you haven’t read the three previous books I highly suggest that you do. They are all awesome. Anyway, in Four Years Later Owen’s all grown up. Well maybe not all grown up, but he is in college. I’ve always liked him. I was so happy Ms Murphy decided to write […]

My thoughts… I loved this one. Author Carey Heywood takes the reader on a journey around the world. The characters which are rich with emotions go to places like London, Beijing, Australia, and many others. It was fun learning about the different places they visited and experiencing it through the eyes of these characters. Speaking of characters… I really liked Aubrey and Adam. When you first meet Aubrey she is heartbroken. Her aunt is dying […]

At the theater, we bought popcorn, Milk Duds, and large sodas. After we settled in our seats in the crowded room, I opened the box of chocolate caramel confections and dumped them in the large tub. “Um,” Quinn said, scratching his chin. “Sweet and salty—it’ s a must-have for movie watching.” “Seriously?” “Yes, seriously.” I picked up a Milk Dud, flanked it with two pieces of popcorn, and then brought it to his lips. “Here.
