Review: Lost In Time by Melssia de la Cruz

After their beautiful yet brief bonding ceremony in Italy, Schuyler Van Alen and Jack Force are forced to separate. To fulfill the Van Alen Legacy, Schuyler travels to Alexandria to search for Catherine of Siena and the Gate of Promise. But Schuyler quickly discovers that everything she believed about the Gate to be wrong. Meanwhile, Jack makes the difficult decision to return to New York to face his twin and former bondmate, Mimi. But instead of a bitter reunion, he is faced with a choice for which there is no good option.

Mimi, with a most unexpected travel companion in Oliver Hazard-Perry, jets off to Egypt, too, to search for Kingsley Martin, her long lost love. With all roads leading to Hell, Mimi learns that not all love stories have happy endings. But she'll have to put her own feelings aside if she's going to save her crumbling Coven.

Packed with heartache, twists, and vampiric folklore, Lost in Time is sure to satisfy hungry fans' cravings for more Blue Bloods adventure.


The covens are still falling one by one. Schuyler and Jack are finally bonded and in search of the Gate of Promise to help the Blue Bloods win the war and end the Silver Bloods one and for all.

Mimi has travelled to Egypt in hopes of freeing Kingsly the one she loves having to travel to hell with none other then Oliver Hazard-Perry.

But betrayal and sacrifice is not far behind the young Blue Bloods and they may just have to sacrifice everything they know to stay alive.

This book was just what I needed. And I am sad that there is only one more left.

In this book we find out why Schuyler's mother did what she did and what lies ahead for Schuyler and Jack now that they are bonded. Mimi finds friendship in Oliver but having to choose between Oliver and Kingsley is harder then she fought. But she has to choose something even if it means sacrificing the one thing she may need, her soul.

You will be amazed in heartbroken in this book. But its an important book to the series.

Review: Everneath by Brodi Ashton

Last spring, Nikki Beckett vanished, sucked into an underworld known as the Everneath, where immortals Feed on the emotions of despairing humans. Now she's returned- to her old life, her family, her friends- before being banished back to the underworld... this time forever.

She has six months before the Everneath comes to claim her, six months for good-byes she can't find the words for, six months to find redemption, if it exists.

Nikki longs to spend these months reconnecting with her boyfriend, Jack, the one person she loves more than anything. But there's a problem: Cole, the smoldering immortal who first enticed her to the Everneath, has followed Nikki to the mortal world. And he'll do whatever it takes to bring her back- this time as his queen.

As Nikki's time grows short and her relationships begin slipping from her grasp, she's forced to make the hardest decision of her life: find a way to cheat fate and remain on the Surface with Jack or return to the Everneath and become Cole's...


After seeing the trailer for this book I suddenly had to read it.

This book is amazing. It had me hooked from the beginning.

Brodi Ashton is an amazing writer but I was in tears by the time the book ended.

Niki Baker finds answers that's she's wanted for a very long time. She's been holding onto this memory of a boy, the boy that may have caused her to make the choices she did.

You wont be disappointed by this book I can guarantee this.

Review: Beutiful Chaos by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl

Ethan Wate thought he was getting used to the strange, impossible events happening in Gatlin, his small Southern town. But now that Ethan and Lena have returned home, strange and impossible have taken on new meanings. Swarms of locusts, record-breaking heat, and devastating storms ravage Gatlin as Ethan and Lena struggle to understand the impact of Lena's Claiming. Even Lena's family of powerful Supernaturals is affected - and their abilities begin to dangerously misfire. As time passes, one question becomes clear: What - or who - will need to be sacrificed to save Gatlin?

For Ethan, the chaos is a frightening but welcome distraction. He's being haunted in his dreams again, but this time it isn't by Lena - and whatever is haunting him is following him out of his dreams and into his everyday life. Even worse, Ethan is gradually losing pieces of himself - forgetting names, phone numbers, even memories. He doesn't know why, and most days he's too afraid to ask.

Sometimes there isn't just one answer or one choice. Sometimes there's no going back. And this time there won't be a happy ending.


These two authors never fail to amaze me and this book was no exception.

Ethan is worrying when he starts to forget the small things - names, numbers and memories and he's to scared to ask. On top of this Ethan and Lena aren't able to figure out how stop Lena's choice from changing everything they know. Link is now some kind of Caster-Hybrid which he still doesn't know but one thing Link does know is that he will help Ethan no matter what.

Riddley's hiding her own little secret and its in no time that everyone finds out what that is.

Ethan finds answers in this book whether he's ready to or not.

Problem is this book doesn't have a fairytale ending.

It will leave you hooked till very end.

Review: Bite Club by Rachel Caine

Morganville, Texas, is a quiet college town where humans and vampires live in relative peace. But lately a great deal of blood is being spilled—not in a feeding frenzy, but for someone’s twisted idea of entertainment.

After discovering that vampires populate Morganville—and surviving a number of adventures with her new night-dwelling friends—college student Claire Danvers has come to realise that for the most part, the undead just want to live their lives.

But someone else wants them to get ready to rumble.

There’s a new extreme sport being broadcast over the Internet: bare-knuckle fights pitting captured vampires against one another—or, worse, against humans. Tracking the signal leads Claire—accompanied by a loyal group of friends and frenemies—to discover that what started as an online brawl will soon threaten everyone in Morganville. And if they want to survive, they’ll have to do a lot more than fight...


I've been a very big fan of Rachel Caine the moment I picked up Glass House and she didn't fail to make me fall in love with her all over again.

Old enemies are back in this one and new ones as well. Claire worries as Shane pulls away from her into the an extreme online boxing fight.

I have to admit this book did have me hooked and I can't wait to read her next one.

Well done Rachel :)

Review: Circle of Fire by Michelle Zink

With time dwindling but her will to end the Prophecy stronger than ever, Lia sets out on a journey to find the remaining keys, locate the missing pages of the Prophecy, and convince her sister Alice to help--or risk her life trying. Lia has her beloved Dimitri by her side, but Alice has James, the man who once loved her sister--and maybe still does. James doesn't know the truth about either sister, or the prophecy that divides them. And Alice intends to keep it that way.

There are some secrets sisters aren't meant to share. Because when they do, it destroys them. This stunning conclusion to Michelle Zink's Prophecy of the Sisters trilogy will make saying good-bye bittersweet for readers.


This book is so amazing that it's making it really difficult to sum my thoughts up. Thinking about what I loved, I loved every minute of it, just couldn't get enough. I'm kind of sad that it has ended because I have to say this series is one of the best that I have ever read.

I'll be sad to let them go but I will be checking out Michelle's new series, I'm extremely excited to read it.

Now Lusia is my favourite character, I just love her but I also love Alice even after all the horrible things shes done, I can kind of see where she was coming from and how she felt.

This book felt like someone had tore my heart out right at the end i was in tears really embarrassing but it's true.

I really urge people who like old, Gothic stories to pick this series up and read her knew one A Temptation of Angels when it comes out March 20th 2012 and I love the cover.



My next review will be The Secret Hour by Scott Westerfeld

Happy Reading!!

Review: Deadly Little Secret by Laurie Faria Stolarz

I know I said the next review would be Circle of Fire by Michelle Zink but I just had to get this out there.


Some secrets shouldn't be kept... Up until three months ago, everything in sixteen-year-old Camelia's life had been fairly ordinary: decent grades; an okay relationship with her parents; and a pretty cool part-time job at the art studio downtown. But when Ben, the mysterious new guy, starts junior year at her high school, Camelia's life becomes anything but ordinary.
Rumored to be somehow responsible for his ex-girlfriend's accidental death, Ben is immediately ostracized by everyone on campus. Except for Camelia. She's reluctant to believe the rumors, even when her friends try to convince her otherwise. She's inexplicably drawn to Ben...and to his touch. But soon, Camelia is receiving eerie phone calls and strange packages with threatening notes. Ben insists she is in danger, and that he can help--but can he be trusted? She knows he's hiding something... but he's not the only one with a secret.
From the best-selling author of Blue is for Nightmares comes a story of paranormal romance that's sure to be a thrilling and chilling teen favorite.

I fell in love with this book from the moment I read the first word. It had me and I just didn't want to put it down.

I love this book!

It was one of those books that dropped little hints here and there. It made you think twice about certain characters, but in the end it just had me hooked.


It is based on a girl named Camelia and when the new boy turns up her life change dramatically.

Laurie is one of those rare authors who just pulls me right into the book. I actually never wanted this book to end and look forward to reading the next one.

You should defiantly read this!

Review: Demonglass by Rachel Hawkins

Sophie Mercer thought she was a witch.

That was the whole reason she was sent to Hex Hall, a reform school for delinquent Prodigium (aka witches, shapeshifters, and fairies). But that was before she discovered the family secret, and that her hot crush, Archer Cross, is an agent for The Eye, a group bent on wiping Prodigium off the face of the earth.

Turns out, Sophie’s a demon, one of only two in the world—the other being her father. What’s worse, she has powers that threaten the lives of everyone she loves. Which is precisely why Sophie decides she must go to London for the Removal, a dangerous procedure that will destroy her powers.

But once Sophie arrives she makes a shocking discovery. Her new friends? They’re demons too. Meaning someone is raising them in secret with creepy plans to use their powers, and probably not for good. Meanwhile, The Eye is set on hunting Sophie down, and they’re using Archer to do it. But it’s not like she has feelings for him anymore. Does she?


I think this one may have had it all.
Bad Boy: Check
People trying to kill others: Check
Love Triangle: Check
Shock Twist: Check
Annoying Cliffhanger: Check

I’m so glad that we finally got to meet Sophie’s dad, James. I mean he just seems awesome.

There are some new characters including Daisy, Nick and Lara, who just happened to be Mrs Casnoff’s sister, now I can tell you that I was just as shocked as Sophie.

Although Lara seems nice, she wasn’t all she made out to be, but come on I should have known that it was just too obvious, she just seemed was too nice.

Cal wasn’t the quite person we were used to and there was a shock there too, including the ending which was one of those OMG moments. He kind of made up when Archer, swoon, wasn’t in the book but I still missed him terribly maybe even as much of Sophie.

Jenna even had a shock announcement to make to Sophie. We also got to meet her girlfriend, which to be quite honest I nearly forgot existed but never mind she did seem alright from what we got from Rachel.

I didn’t mention Elodie, now I love this character and was so happy when she may have appeared in the book, but I’m not going to tell you that you want to know READ THE BOOK, trust me on that.

This was one of those books that I couldn’t put down. Can’t wait till the next one it just seems so far away.
