Revival (Variant series, book 1)

Modern day meets X-Men!! I love superheros and action!! This book has everything!! Good vs evil! FILLED with comedy and adventure with a taste of romance...Alex is completely relate able and Declan (love the name btw) is the guy you just cant get enough of! He really wants to blame Alex for what happened to his parents but soon learns he cant help but admire her. A favorite moment is when Decks is training Alex to learn her "skills" and says "sit, stay."and Alex shoots back " That's cute," "Tell me to 'heel' and see what happens" LOL! Great read!! Cannot wait for book two!

A Taste of Silver

Now on to better books! I loved A Taste of Silver. This is the first faerie book I have read and it didnt disappoint! The plot was fast-paced and edge of your rockin chair exciting! Filled with suspense and humour!! The beginning of the book Rose gets her hair stuck in a toilet seat and I was LOL so hard, I was getting weird stares ;). Hayden's character was very well described and you just fall in love with him!This books ending was what I call an "un-ending", which leaves you scratching your head going, "that was it??" So Im hoping this author will come out with a sequel :) Enjoy!!!

Angelic (book 1 in series)

Alright, I personally didn't care for this book. It had a few spots where I was like "Twilight reference?" The lead character Liam takes his girl interest ~into the woods and states "this is what i am"~ sound familiar??? OH! and they all play paranormal Football with a steel football and hey wouldn't you know the lowly human cant play.... Baseball anyone? Liam also pulled the "i cant be with you for your safety" bull....The actual plot was VERY slow paced, at times I was just plain bored. By the time it got to the climax I had forgotten who the heck Vincent was. I kept thinking why two names, I don't get it!And SPOILER ALERT: Liam dies?! I mean if your gonna end a book that way fine but by the end I was plain mad, and I will not read the rest of the series. In case after all that you still think "hey sounds good to me....well I'm not judging, book two has yet to be released but is called "Torn")

50 Shades of "Crap" oops i mean Gray

First sorry its been awhile, my family and I have been a little under the weather.
 
Now, I usually don't read erotica, however when this book made such a huge impact on the media and celebs...even political channels were raving how awesome this series was I thought I should see what the fuss was all about. That being said...this series were probably the worst writing I have ever read. Did anyone actually edit these books? The writer kept using the EXACT same phrases, to the point you wanted to scream! and the actual story line was just stupid. Maybe I'm alone in this opinion however I need more than just sex to enjoy a book. I mean why not rent a porn?? That is pretty much all these books were. Cheap, cheesy porn. No point. VERY disappointed and I wouldn't recommend this book...I still don't get all the fuss.
