The Perfect Game by J. Sterling

The Perfect Game (The Perfect Game, #1)The Perfect Game by J. Sterling
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
didn't like it it was ok liked it (my current rating) really liked it it was amazing

Publisher: J. Sterling
Date Published: October 11th 2012
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance

I have mixed feeling about this book. And I'll tell you right now that there are a few itty-bitty spoilers below, so stop reading if you don't want to know why I have mixed feeling. If you do want to know, please, continue reading. That being said, they really are only itty-bitty spoilers so if you're looking for some big juicy spoilers you may want to look elsewhere.

Okay, so Jack is a cocky bastard who wants the one thing that he's not about to get--attention from miss awesomesauce Cassie. She doesn't fawn all over him like his other female admirers, so of course he wants her. It's a repetitive theme, so he's completely cliché.

Cassie gives him a chance, they fall in love, blah blah blah, oh, and then he cheats on her. Aren't men just wonderful? And then he decides to marry the girl he cheated with because she claims to be pregnant and he's a sucker. You couldn't have just waited until after this co-called 'baby' was born to have a pregnancy test and then see if the kid was yours and then marry the slut?

Sluts like the girl he married are the bitches in this world that give the rest of us girls a hard time when it comes to love and such. And men like Jack are the idiots who fall for the bitches shit. And I get that Jack has issues when it comes to his parents and he doesn't want it to be that way for his kids, but come on, and least make sure there is a kid before getting tied down. Especially to a gold digger.

The flip side of this was that the book was well written and really stirred up my emotions. I hated some characters, loved others, and wanted to wring several characters necks for being total idiots. But the author really knew how to make me as the reader all twisted up inside and fuming for days after I had finished the book. That is one mean skill there.

Synopsis:

He's a game she never intended to play.
And she's the game changer he never knew he needed.

The Perfect Game tells the story of college juniors, Cassie Andrews & Jack Carter. When Cassie meets rising baseball hopeful Jack, she is determined to steer clear of him and his typical cocky attitude. But Jack has other things on his mind... like getting Cassie to give him the time of day.

They're both damaged, filled with mistrust and guarded before they find one another (and themselves) in this emotional journey about love and forgiveness. Strap yourselves for a ride that will not only break your heart, but put it back together.

Sometimes life gets ugly before it gets beautiful...

Sweet Peril by Wendy Higgins

Sweet Peril (The Sweet Trilogy, #2)Sweet Peril by Wendy Higgins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it (my current rating) it was amazing

Publisher: HarperTeen
Date Published: April 30th 2013
Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Romance

This trilogy (it is a trilogy, isn't it?) is still one of my favorites. I get kind of bored with all of the Neph stories out there, but I love this one. Is Anna a bit of a cliché when it comes to a heroine, but I love the story nonetheless.

Anna and Kopano travel around the world recruiting other neph to join their cause against the dukes. Kaidan is still a total hottie and AWOL for a big chunk of the book. Not mention that he’s on a secret diet–no girls. He’s so crazy for Anna that he’s ignoring her but trying not to go after any girls.

Anna is a bit of a party girl in this one, but she still hasn't turned in her V card. I almost wonder if she will in the next book, but she's all pure and stuff, so I think it's doubtful.

I of course loved this book. Neph stories are kind of boring with all of the hate against the bad guys and such. But these... I don't know, they're just different. I like them. I like the weird names and the freaky badges and the way everything is written.

I'll probably read this a million and one times over. So yeah, you can bet your buttocks I loved this book and recommend it to everyone out there.

Synopsis:

Anna Whitt, the daughter of a guardian angel and a demon, promised herself she’d never do the work of her father—polluting souls. She’d been naive to make such a vow. She’d been naive about a lot of things.

Haunted by demon whisperers, Anna does whatever she can to survive, even if it means embracing her dark side and earning an unwanted reputation as her school’s party girl. Her life has never looked more bleak. And all the while there’s Kaidan Rowe, son of the Duke of Lust, plaguing her heart and mind.

When an unexpected lost message from the angels surfaces, Anna finds herself traveling the globe with Kopano, son of Wrath, in an attempt to gain support of fellow Nephilim and give them hope for the first time. It soon becomes clear that whatever freedoms Anna and the rest of the Neph are hoping to win will not be gained without a fight. Until then, Anna and Kaidan must put aside the issues between them, overcome the steamiest of temptations yet, and face the ultimate question: is loving someone worth risking their life?

Waiting on Wednesday #20

wow4copy photo wow4copy_zps31f7081b.jpg
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here but started @ Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

The Distance Between Us

Synopsis:

Seventeen-year-old Caymen Meyers studies the rich like her own personal science experiment, and after years of observation she’s pretty sure they’re only good for one thing—spending money on useless stuff, like the porcelain dolls in her mother’s shop.

So when Xander Spence walks into the store to pick up a doll for his grandmother, it only takes one glance for Caymen to figure out he’s oozing rich. Despite his charming ways and that he’s one of the first people who actually gets her, she’s smart enough to know his interest won’t last. Because if there’s one thing she’s learned from her mother’s warnings, it’s that the rich have a short attention span. But Xander keeps coming around, despite her best efforts to scare him off. And much to her dismay, she's beginning to enjoy his company.

She knows her mom can’t find out—she wouldn’t approve. She’d much rather Caymen hang out with the local rocker who hasn’t been raised by money. But just when Xander’s attention and loyalty are about to convince Caymen that being rich isn’t a character flaw, she finds out that money is a much bigger part of their relationship than she’d ever realized. And that Xander’s not the only one she should’ve been worried about.

Fire & Flood Cover Reveal

So I assume by now we all know Victoria Scott from her awesome book The Collector. And we're all crossing our fingers and counting down for The Liberator. Now here is the cover from another book she's writing, called Fire & Flood:


Man, this cover is badass. I love the fire eating away at the feather. And here is the synopsis for Fire & Flood:

In a perilous race across the world, having the best Pandora can be the difference between life and death.

Sixteen-year-old Tella Holloway isn’t happy. Her mother rushed them out of Boston and into a craptastic house nestled in Middle of Nowhere, Montana. To make matters worse, Tella’s brother is sick, and though a dozen doctors can’t determine the cause, her mother is sure Montana’s “fresh air” will help. Now Tella spends her days being homeschooled, and uses her imagination as entertainment.

But when a small blue box appears on her bed, Tella’s world is rocked. Inside the strange package she finds a white ear bud—and after she fits it into place and touches its blinking button—an unknown voice fills her head. Tella is invited to join the Brimstone Bleed, a race across four ecosystems: desert, sea, mountains, jungle. The voice in Tella’s ear explains she has 48 hours to retrieve her Pandora, an animal genetically designed to help her win.

Tella has never been the sporty type; she’s more a cheerleader than an athlete. But despite her mother’s warnings, she’s determined to compete in the race. And she’ll do anything to win, because if Tella is the Brimstone Bleed victor, she'll be granted a specific gift—the cure to save her brother’s life.

FIRE & FLOOD is a teen thriller set in modern day.


Like I said total badassery. Can't wait to read it!

Suddenly Royal by Nichole Chase

Suddenly Royal (Suddenly, #1)Suddenly Royal by Nichole Chase
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it (my current rating) it was amazing

Publisher: Nichole Chase
Date Published: April 23rd 2013
Genre: New Adult Romance

I do not typically like the princess fantasy that most girls have at one point or another. I usually stay far, far away from books that have royalty in them. Because they're cheesy, stereotypical, and everything that I really hate.

And yet, I bought this book. I read the description and I took a chance. And you know what? I freaking loved this book. It is completely different from the kind of stuff I like, but still utterly amazing.

Sam is a girl who lost her mother and is on her way to losing her father. She's in college, earning her master's degree in wildlife biology. She loves her birds. And then she's invited to dinner with a duchess. Oh course, she thinks that the duchess is going to donate to the bird program.

Only, the duchess tells Sam some pretty big news, and it has nothing to do with the bird program at the raptor center. Oh, and lets not forget the dashing young prince Alex. Yummy. The heat between those two is palpable.

This is a book I would normally scoff at. But I loved it. And I plan on reading it again and again. I love the cover. I love the characters. I love the chemistry between Alex and Sam. I love the story and the craziness that comes with it. I think that this book is fabulous.

View all my reviews

Synopsis:

Samantha Rousseau is used to getting her hands dirty. Working toward a master’s degree in wildlife biology while helping take care of her sick father, she has no time for celebrity gossip, designer clothes, or lazy vacations. So when a duchess from the small country of Lilaria invites her to dinner, Samantha assumes it’s to discuss a donation for the program. The truth will change the course of her life in ways she never dreamed.

Alex D’Lynsal is trying to keep his name clean. As crown prince of Lilaria, he’s had his share of scandalous headlines, but the latest pictures have sent him packing to America and forced him to swear off women—especially women in the public eye. That is, until he meets Samantha Rousseau. She’s stubborn, feisty, and incredibly sexy. Not to mention heiress to an estate in his country, which makes her everyone’s front-page news.

While Sam tries to navigate the new world of politics and wealth, she will also have to dodge her growing feelings for Alex. Giving in to them means more than just falling in love; it would mean accepting the weight of an entire country on her shoulders

It's been crazy these past few weeks, and it's going to get crazier in the coming weeks. I want to apologize for my blog going AWOL and missing a bunch of posts, including a tour post. I've been rushing to fix the problems, to keep up with my posts, and I still need to finish my schoolwork. I'm homeschooled, so I finish school when I finish my work. And I have to finish my work before August, or else I'll have to repeat the year. And I really, really don't want to do that.
 
So right now my schoolwork is going to take priority over my blog, which means I may miss a post or two every now and then. I'm trying to keep up to date on my blog, but I won't make any promises. I am doing my posts day-by-day, I haven't had the time to sit down and do a week or more's posts ahead of time like I usually would, and unlike some blogs there's only one blogger on this blog so I'm doing everything myself. I apologize for any inconveniences that I may cause in the future.
 
Thanks for understanding and happy reading!

Prodigy (Legend, #2)

Synopsis:

June and Day arrive in Vegas just as the unthinkable happens: the Elector Primo dies, and his son Anden takes his place. With the Republic edging closer to chaos, the two join a group of Patriot rebels eager to help Day rescue his brother and offer passage to the Colonies. They have only one request—June and Day must assassinate the new Elector.

It’s their chance to change the nation, to give voice to a people silenced for too long. 

But as June realizes this Elector is nothing like his father, she’s haunted by the choice ahead. What if Anden is a new beginning? What if revolution must be more than loss and vengeance, anger and blood—what if the Patriots are wrong?

In this highly-anticipated sequel, Lu delivers a breathtaking thriller with high stakes and cinematic action.

PublisherSt. Martin's Press
Date Published: April 23rd 2013
Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Romance

I think this was the worst one. The last one wasn't so great either, but I'm really pissed about this one. I think it could've been so good but it just wasn't.

So Kylie ran off to her group of chameleons, but none of the story took place there. We didn't really learn anything about the chameleons as a species or as actual people. It seemed sort of pointless for her to go there at the end of the last book and then just head back to shadow falls at the beginning of this one.

Everyone is telling Kylie to forgive Lucas, which pisses me off because she has a right to be mad at him. Yes, he realizes he made a mistake and feels guilt for that, but that doesn't excuse what he did. And Derek is so fickle. He likes Kylie, bangs a vampire, loves Kylie, and now he's into Jenny? Seriously?

And Mr. Evil has no point to the series. He has no reason to hate Kylie and want to kill her. And I suppose you could argue that because he's evil he doesn't have to have a reason to want her dead. But for the sake of a story, the evil person has to have a reason. In real life, they probably wouldn't have a reason, like those nutty terrorists. But this is a story and so the villain needs purpose. Even Voldemort had a reason to want to kill Harry.

I think that Lucas giving Kylie a promise ring is tacky and that Kylie would never have stood a chance against the evil dude. I get that its a story and so it doesn't necessarily have to be believable, but it was really... fake.

Not a great book.

Synopsis:

Kylie Galen's life hasn't been the same since her world was turned upside-down in Born at Midnight, Shadow Falls #1, and now an epic conclusion to her journey—not to mention a tough choice between two guys!—is brewing in Chosen at Nightfall:

When Kylie Galen left Shadow Falls, she thought it was the hardest decision of her life. Heartbroken and separated from everyone she loves, she has to embrace her abilities and what it means to be a chameleon. But as Kylie's journey comes to a close, she must return to the camp that started it all...and she must finally chose between the two boys who love her. The werewolf who broke her heart when he chose his pack over her, and the half-fae who ran from their intense attraction before they ever really had a chance. For Kylie, everything will finally be revealed and nothing will ever be the same.

PublisherSt. Martin's Griffin 
Date Published: October 2nd 2012
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy Romance

I'll admit I read other peoples spoilers for this book (but I'm not sharing any of them with you, so don't bother asking! I'm a hypocrite, I know). I expected the worst and was dreading the ending of the book. But honestly? It wasn't that big of a deal, I don't think.

Lucas wants Kylie to be a werewolf so that they can be together without any hassle. But Kylie doesn't think she is a werewolf. And she doesn't think that Lucas will accept her.

Derek doesn't care what the hell she is. And he isn't as freaked out about ghosts as all of the other supernaturals. I can understand why she'd like that about him. But he still screwed up. If he really liked her he wouldn't have slept with whats-her-name. Even though they weren't dating, if he really liked her he wouldn't have done that.

So Derek is a phony in my book. Lucas isn't much better in this book. SORT-OF-SPOILER-ALERT: Does he cheat on Kylie? Eh, not really. But he should have told Kylie what he was doing. Even if his ambitions were in the right place, he still should have told Kylie.

This book is filled with drama, I'll give it that. What with seeing Holiday's ghost (nice twist there, btw), and boy drama, and dead people and such. It's a little hectic.

It was an okay book. Not my favorite. I think some parts were too rushed and some parts came out of nowhere. Like 'Holiday's' ghosts' killer. What was up with that? How was he relevant to the series at all? It was just way too random.

And the thing with Lucas happened in a snap. Fredricka was telling Kylie about it, then it happened, then it was over. I think my head spun around too fast for words.

Overall, this was not a great book. But if you like drama, then the drama will make up for it. I do not like drama. So for me the book was very blah. A let down from the first ones.

Synopsis:

Shadow Falls Camp is back in session with the most explosive installment yet.  A shocking new threat will rock Shadow Falls—changing it forever and altering Kylie’s journey in ways she never imagined.

Even at a camp for supernatural teens, Kylie Galen has never been normal. Not only can she see ghosts, but she doesn’t seem to belong to any one species—she exhibits traits from them all. As Kylie struggles to unlock the secrets of her identity, she begins to worry that Lucas will never be able to accept her for what she is, and what she isn’t…a werewolf.  With his pack standing in their way, Kylie finds herself turning more and more to Derek, the only person in her life who’s willing to accept the impossible.

As if life isn’t hard enough, she starts getting visits from the ghost of Holiday, her closest confidante.  Trouble is, Holiday isn’t dead…not yet anyway.  Now Kylie must race to save one of her own from an unseen danger before it’s too late—all while trying to stop her relationship with Lucas from slipping away forever.   In a world of constant confusion, there’s only one thing Kylie knows for sure.  Change is inevitable and all things must come to an end…maybe even her time at Shadow Falls.

The breathtaking fourth installment of the New York Times bestselling Shadow Falls series from author C. C. Hunter...Whispers at Moonrise.

Genre: Young Adult Paranormal (Romance?)

Mixed feelings about this book. I mean, on one hand, you finally find out what the hell Kylie is. But on the other, it's taken so damn long to find out and everything in her life is a mess.

Now some people like messes. They can fun to read about. But Kylie's messes seem to be never-ending. It grows tiresome. And a lot of them are totally insignificant.

Lucas's pack doesn't want them together, because she's definitely NOT a were. That puts pressure on their relationship. And Derek, well, she still seems to like him (I can't for the life of me understand why).

Overall, this book is kind of hectic. I like it, but I don't like all of it. And I don't understand Mr. Evil-Dude's fixation on Kylie. She hasn't really done anything to warrant a join-us-or-die situation. It's a little confusing.

I guess if you've read the first two books then go ahead and read this book (though I'd borrow it from the library or a friend, I wouldn't buy it). See what you think.

Synopsis:

Step into Shadow Falls, a camp for teens with supernatural powers.  Here friendship thrives, love takes you by surprise, and our hearts possess the greatest magic of all.

Just when she and Lucas are finally getting close, she learns that his pack has forbidden them from being together.  Was it a mistake to pick him over Derek? And it’s not just romance troubling Kylie. An amnesia-stricken ghost is haunting her, delivering the frightful warning, someone lives and someone dies. As Kylie races to unravel the mystery and protect those she loves, she finally unlocks the truth about her supernatural identity, which is far different—and more astonishing—than she ever imagined.

The Collector Post

So It's been a while since I've done any posting about The Collector by Victoria Scott. I am in the middle of the book, trying to finish the book and to finish my schoolwork simultaneously. It's kind of hard. I have a deadline for when all of my schoolwork has to be turned in. I don't have a deadline for when I need to finish the book. Sadly, schoolwork is the priority here.

And my blog goes back and forth between working and not working. It seems to want to work when I don't have a post read, and then it doesn't work when I do have a post ready. I apologize for the lack of posts. I'm working on fixing the problem.

Anyways, I've been trying to catch up in all of my Dante stuff. So I made a fan trailer for you guys to see! Yay!
