Drip Drop Teardrop ~ Samantha Young Review

Drip Drop Teardrop
by: Samantha Young


⭐⭐⭐⭐

So this one left me like….well that escalated way too quickly. 

It was over before I was ready for it to be. 

However the story line was pretty freaking enticing. 

I couldn't put it down because I needed to know what was with him and what that meant for her. 

So maybe it escalated quickly because I sped through it. . .

Matter of opinion I guess lol. 

Ultimately it was a good book, do I wish it lasted a little longer yes, but a good book all the same. 

But if you can't take my word for it. . . that's fine. Just read it for yourself. 

Happy Reading!

The Art of Wedding A Greek Billionaire ~ Marian Tee Review

The Art of Wedding A Greek Billionaire
by: Marian Tee



⭐⭐⭐⭐

Four Stars for this one!

Ok, I'm going to be flat out honest. I enjoyed every minute of his suffering. Not because I'm a bitter hag, but because he deserved it all and in my opinion and then some. The things he said to her in the book before the last still has me a little sore. 

But anyway she's getting her HEA so I can't lie, I am happy for her. But I'm so over him still. LOL.

Wonderful read (as always when it comes to Marian. Im so obsessed with her stories)

Not much I can say without spoiling it. So how about you guys just go read it?

The Coldest Girl In Coldtown ~ Holly Black Review

The Coldest Girl In Coldtown 
by: Holly Black


⭐⭐⭐⭐


This book was . . . 

I wasn't expecting it to grasp my attention the way it did. 

What I was expecting it to do was have a sequel…. But I can't find one soooo….

Im just crossing my fingers for that. 

I think this book was a really good read. 

A little more detail here and there would have been appreciated. 

And you have to keep up because it is a fast paced book.

But overall four stars!!! 

Now . . . i have to find whats next up in my book line up.

What I'm (my book club is) reading

Aloha!

(No I'm not in Hawaii but a girl can dream right?… anyway)

Just A quick update for my bookies and biblio's

I am currently reading:



Tana lives in a world where walled cities called Coldtowns exist. In them, quarantined monsters and humans mingle in a decadently bloody mix of predator and prey. The only problem is, once you pass through Coldtown’s gates, you can never leave.

One morning, after a perfectly ordinary party, Tana wakes up surrounded by corpses. The only other survivors of this massacre are her exasperatingly endearing ex-boyfriend, infected and on the edge, and a mysterious boy burdened with a terrible secret. Shaken and determined, Tana enters a race against the clock to save the three of them the only way she knows how: by going straight to the wicked, opulent heart of Coldtown itself.



For some unknown reason… 
I'm excited about this one. 
Could be mysterious burdened boy…. 
Yeah it has to be him. 
Anyway… happy reading!!

The Greek Billionaire and I
by: Marian Tee


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Warning: I may be a bit biased because I love her books. Read them all, except two.

This book was awesome. 

I literally laughed out loud a few times. 

I almost shed a tear. 

Needless to say the feels were way to real. 

Read it. Enjoy it. Its worth it. 

Will I reread it. 

Yes, probably sometime in the very near future. 



These Broken Stars ~ Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner Review

These Broken Stars 
by: Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner



⭐⭐⭐⭐

So, if you haven't noticed yet, at times I can be a bit of a sic-fi nerd. Ok, honesty hour, I am a sic-fi nerd. The point is, new sic-fi series always excite me and causes me to be cautious. 

This book was no exception. 

Before I began I was like please don't let this be awful and a complete waste of my time.

And my pleading was answered. 

These Broken Stars tells a wonderful story with powerful themes. 

I'd recommend it, and not because of my nerd status, but because it was truly a good story. The plot development was awesome. 

Will I reread this again? 

Maybe. 

ok probably yes. 

It's been a while...

So I've been missing in action for a few weeks.

Sorry.

I was having some personal problems and long story short, I'm just now starting to bounce back.

But enough about my sob story.

This past week I read two books. One's been out the other is fairly new to the bookie scene.

First up, something old:




It's a night like any other on board the Icarus. Then, catastrophe strikes: the massive luxury spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux and Tarver Merendsen survive. And they seem to be alone. 

Lilac is the daughter of the richest man in the universe. Tarver comes from nothing, a young war hero who learned long ago that girls like Lilac are more trouble than they’re worth. But with only each other to rely on, Lilac and Tarver must work together, making a tortuous journey across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help. 

Then, against all odds, Lilac and Tarver find a strange blessing in the tragedy that has thrown them into each other’s arms. Without the hope of a future together in their own world, they begin to wonder—would they be better off staying here forever?

Everything changes when they uncover the truth behind the chilling whispers that haunt their every step. Lilac and Tarver may find a way off this planet. But they won’t be the same people who landed on it.



And now something fairly new:





When the powerful, sexy, and gorgeous Greek billionaire Mykolas Sallis finds a misplaced cellphone and reads its messages, he becomes intrigued with its owner, a woman who seems to possess the rare combination of beauty, wit, and lots of snappy comebacks.

13:15 How about going for a movie tomorrow night?

13:16 Thomas, you're a good guy, so I'm going to tell you the truth once and for all.

13:17 What is it?

13:18 I'm a lesbian. I want your d*ck - but not for the reasons you're hoping for.

When curvy 24-year-old schoolteacher Velvet Lambert speaks with the Greek billionaire the first time, she knows right away she's out of her league. She does her snarky best to resist, but in the end she still finds herself saying 'yes' to a marriage of convenience, pretending she isn't head over heels with him, and trying not to lose hope even if she knows Mykolas only sees her as a prized possession.
