Bluescreen by Dan WellsMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Well, if I compare it to Partials, which is btw one of my all time fave series. I have to say Bluescreen was a bit disappointing, only if I compare them.
But honestly, I liked it. It’s a good concept and the ‘think forward/ futuristic’ was waaay forward. It’s like the ‘future’ we think/on movies on steroids.
James Dashner’s Eye of Minds meets Alex London’s Proxy. And the dauntless simulation part of Veronica Roth’s Divergent
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• The Cover is so cool!
At first I really thought that this is one of those cyborg books. The thing is, it is a cyborg book, kinda, but the mood or the way it was written (since it was the future-on-steroids) it felt natural. Just the way they are, the people in the story lived with cyborgs all their lives. I mean they don’t discriminate or make them feel like outcasts. And to be clear the story is not about the cyborgs. It’s just the protagonist.
• Bluescreen –it is some sort of drug but doesn’t really contain any drugs. It is some kind of software that people illegally buy then they inject them into their ‘djinnis,’(which is btw the ‘everything’ for the most people there it’s their phone, computer, credit card, key to their houses and etc.) then they feel ‘an overwhelming sensory rush, an unbelievable high, and then boom.’ That was what Anja said. Little do they know, there is actually a side effect on using these things.
• I just wrote this review like a month after I finished reading Bluescreen. It’s almost like fresh in my head. I read every day and if the book is next to boring I probably would forget it. So this being ‘fresh in my head’ I think, deserves some plus points.
• It’s my gut feel that tells me that most people would probably quit or will not finish reading Bluescreen. It’s kinda long. I mean especially those who are not that massive fan of YA books. I am a fan of Dan Wells and I belive its going to end up good so… I continued reading and finished this thing. Turns out it was really good. And it would be a mistake if you opened this thing and not finish it. BIG MISTAKE.
• My arms are tired right now… *wiggle* *wiggle* *wiggle*
• Memorable scenes… there’s a lot of them. Though I think… well I’m pretty sure my fave one is when they play. It was so cool.
• It was very detailed. It makes it more believable and makes it feel that you are actually in there.
I also liked the ‘control’ between the fantasy and the reality part. There are ‘fantasy’ problems and of course the reality.
• #IWISH there’s some illustrations. I think that would be so kickass! And it will help the reader not to make ‘some assumptions of imagination’ inside their heads.
AND if there is I’m going to give this thing a 10star rating on goodreads. (LOL. )
• The market… I don’t think kids will enjoy it that much, because it’s too long. Teenagers and up is appropriate.
And the SCI/FI would love it too.

Lonesome Town by Tom MendicinoMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I don’t know if my copy (ARC) is incomplete or it was really written that way…
There are most scenes that I thought were missing. Lots of them are pretty good scenes and suddenly I’m in a different scene. That’s kinda suck if that the way it was laid out.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• Story wise I think there’s a potential in there. It was really good. I liked it!
Wit the writing style… I have no complaints there.
• Romance… it was a lil bit short in that area.
And I kinda wanted the main characters (Charlie &KC) to converse more in the story… or at least them to have some sexy time, you know? Ha! *grin*
I mean, they don’t have a sexy scene… with each other but with the other people that had. And that is totally a spoiler.
• I think I finished reading Lonesome Town in less than two hours. So I guess it will appeal more to those M/M book readers who are in a long drive or to those who’s wants to chillax on their own.

Lev by Belle AuroraMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
“I don’t understand love. Love is just a word.”
*MC’s Corner*
100% sure I’ve read this kind of concept.
But you know what?! This thing is 100x better than those. Soooo good!
#MUSTREAD
I just love Lev! GOSH!
The thing I like the most about is that, once I started it I want to finish it. I mean I don’t to do anything than finishing this thing.
I dig the cover! LOVE IT!
Also love the little teaser for the next boom.
Though, I kinda wish that there’s more ‘BOOM’ on it. There wasn’t that much oompf for me. That weird because I really don’t like characters suffering… #meiswalkingconundrum

Angels Twice Descending by Cassandra ClareMy rating: 1 of 5 stars
George : Are we going to have to hug now or something?
Simon: I think that may be inescapable.
#SUPERSPOILERS
#RATEDSPG
I DON’T RECOMMEND THIS STORY.
I HATE IT!
THEY KILLED GEORGE LOVELACE!
WHY WOUKLD YOU DO THAT?! EVERYONE LOVES HIM!!! ARRGH!!!
I’m just sad and furious… By The fucking Angel! He doesn’t deserve that! Especially that kind of death. It was excruciating, I just can’t get it out of my friggin head. It’s on the top of my THINGS I MUST FORGET list. This the time that I hate that it was written beautifully that even the unbeautiful scenes were really unforgettable. *sob*
*MC’s Corner*
Note: SUPER SPOILERS.
• I am so done. I swear I’m never going to read Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy ever again. Not going to touch it.
• WHO’S NEXT?! JACE? YOU WANT TO KILL JACE TOO? OR MAYBE… MAGNUS BANE.
You already killed poor Max… then Jordan… now George. Everyone love them… Do you hate your fans that much?!
• I’m gave it 1 star rating because this thing should be written again. Or write an alternative one. I just want to forget that scene.
• I know right? I noticed that after Simon ascended when he looked at George, he felt like they are not kin… I think that was a clue. I just shrugged it off… *sad face*
• And to be honest, I probably be okay if Simon Lewis is the one who burned to the bones, while fucking screaming (arghhh). For me he’s just an ‘extra’.
• BYE GEORGE! I AM GOING TO MISS YOU SO MUCH. REST IN PEACE. IM PRAYING FOR YOUR SOUL.

Thicker Than Water by Brigid KemmererMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
#LETMEBRAG
I am auto-approved by Kensington son yeah… I got the ARC of Brigid Kemmerer’s new book Thicker Than Water!
I love it!
At first, I said, ‘A non-paranormal/supernatural book by Brigid Kemmerer? Hmm… that’s interesting.’
Then halfway through the book… it was like the whole world (in the book) flipped suddenly.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• I can’t talk about what happened halfway through because that would TOTALLY SPOIL the whole story.
Don’t worry it was good. I didn’t expect it.
• The story started in a funeral. Thomas Bellweather’s mum’s funeral. She was murdered. The thing is, everyone thinks he did it. But Thomas loves him mother very much.
So who killed his mum?
Then there’s Charlotte (the annoying slut, my opinion), I think she just made Thomas life complicated. I don’t know, I think she’s got the negative to Tommy’s positive magnet. She just kept on bugging him. And they can’t seem to stay away from each other.
The problem, Charlotte is from a family of cops.
Since Thomas was the ‘prime suspect’ of his mum’s murder, again, according to everyone. You can add up that math.
• I am really not good at writing mystery books reviews… always spoil that much. So let’s keep this thing short.
READ THIOS BOOK. You are going to love it! Duh! It’s written by Brigid Kemmerer, in my opinion she never disappoints.
• #EVERYTHING
o COVER: It’s quite catchy.
My favorite from this author.
o GENRE: Mystery, Thriller, Romance & Paranormal.
#spoiler
o CHARACTERS: The characters had different personalities. Even the minor ones. I never mistook one character for the other. (Which btw happens a lot with other books.)
o STORY:
The twist is the best part.
The start of the story I think, is very powerful and will get your attention in no time.
The mystery, thrill, romance and the supernatural part… divided and balanced equally. I can tell where what is. Good Job!
Memorable scenes. I said I know what is what. So that’s given. The book is pretty memorable.
o BELIEVABILITY: Yes sir! I BELIEVED.
The backdrop is just per-fect. (I said that per-fect with my eyes on the back of my head.) Wahaha
o MARKET: Since there is the car scene (you know?) its teenagers and up.
o COMPARE IT TO ELEMENTAL SERIES:
I don’t know why or how… it’s just I just can’t. Maybe I should pound my head to the table.
o READ IT AGAIN? Yes. Probably. *grin*
• This review is short enough right?!

Days of Throbbing Gristle by Kevin ColeMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
*UNFINISHED REVIEW*
*STILL READING*
*NOT ACTUALLY SURE IF I'M GOING TO FINISH IT*
THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING ME WITH YOUR BOOK MR. KEVIN COLE!
I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
*MC’s Corner*
Spoilers.
• I’m on 13% I think and I already spent a time normally I’m not half of a normal book.
So yeah it’s really long.
It makes me want to grab a new book.
• I think it’s a bad idea to write a contemporary book with juvenile characters that is so long. I think when you write long book the best genre is fantasy and Sci/Fi.
• And honestly, maybe it’s a fantasy book. I’m just not in that part yet.
• And that is another gripe of mine… I have no idea where is the story going.
All I remember is a poor British boy who is fostered by rich American family and he’s trying to fit in.

The Favorite by Kiera CassMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Seriously?! That’s it?! Ugh!
Unbelievable! This is so… short.
I know it was a short story… but this is so short for a #1 NYT Best Selling Author.
Its like opening it then I just stretched my feet and suddenly I’m done.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• The stupid me… saw that it was actually part of an anthology, kinda. Happily Ever After.
#KILLMENOW #IKNOWRIGHT?
• As much as I love Aspen I’m just going to give it 4 Stars.
You have to admit the fact that it’s still short…
And there are some unnecessary parts that were written longer than they should and the good parts were cut short.
• When I saw the ‘Part 1’ ‘Part 2’ thingy–what do you call them?–I got so excited. I thought it was going to be a fairy tale or something love story. Part 1 I thought it’s going to be the story of how Marlee and Woodwork met (check), then how they started their ‘affair’ (check), and lastly how they got caught (check). All check… my problem is that none of them were detailed.
Moving on, on Part 2 my mind went straight to The Heir. Years after Mer & Maxon got married. How their children got ‘friendly’.

The Great Hunt by Wendy HigginsMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Kiera Cass’ ‘The Selection’ meets the JUNGLE? LOL and… Frankenstein?.
I thought it’s going to be a fairy/fae book.
Well, I didn’t get the tagline at first but when I got deep in the story… that’s when I realize what it is. And then the excitement just went up a notch.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• I kinda looking for more action… although there are enough of them.
• I felt like the romance part–if there’s any–was in fact forced.
Especially those kissing parts… ugh! But to be honest, they do have some chemistry going on.
• I love how I can differentiate one character to the other. Plus points for that! *thumbs up*
• The fantasy part of it… the magic/Lashed Ones, I think it’s unique. But the thing is we–readers–don’t have a solid idea of what they really are. Hopefully we’ll see more of them on the next book. Because I’m definitely reading it.
• Cliffhanger… it wasn’t that much exciting.
• Twists… I don’t get. Why would she do that?! It doesn’t make any sense, her being the traitor. Grrrr.
• The backdrop… first I wrote on the note it doesn’t give me the ‘historical vibe’ and it lacks class and sophistication, and then I realized that is not the way it was written. It turns out it’s a ‘new generation’ so it made lots of sense and made it more believable. Though I think it need a timeline or an exact year.
• Market … I recommend it for everyone. I think it’s okay for the children.
• PLOT
There’s a great beast lurking around the kingdom of Eurona and its killing people every single day. The king did everything he can do; no one in his kingdom can kill this great beast. King Clark has no choice but to find an alternative solution to save his kingdom.
He issued a ‘proclamation’ that the one who ever kill this great beast will win the hand of his eldest daughter, Princess Aerity.
• How do I pronounce her name?
• Memorable scene/s…
Well... weeks after I read it the first thing/scene comes to mind when I see the title or cover is the cliffhanger. Maybe I think that was the best part.
It’s like when you think of Pittacus Lore’s ‘Fall of Five’ you I see the cover/title all I can think of is Sam suddenly can use telekinesis. No matter how great the first parts of it.
• Well reading this whole review... it looks like I have too many gripes on this book… Well… I just have too many things to say about it, unlike other book I can barely write a whole sentence.
• Tiern vs. Kaiden Rowe
The sexy drummer is one of my all-time favorite book boyfriends… so I’m sorry to say that Tiern is not even close.
• The cover… I almost forgot.
I don’t get it. Seriously.
And honestly speaking you guys MUST change it.

Six of Crows by Leigh BardugoMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
That was so good!
And long.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• I’m not disappointed, I love this book but I thought it would be like a future or some kind of spinoff of Grisha Trilogy. I expected more magical.
• Well… I’m not complaining. I just expected.
Although, there’s enough magic but this one leans more towards action, adventure and thrill, less on romance and fantasy.
• The thing though is that I felt okay if I put it down and continue reading it later. You know?
I mean… I did not get the feeling of GOSH–IT’S–SO–GOOD-I-CAN’T–PUT–IT–DOWN.
But I’m definitely reading the next one.
• Characters… oooh!
So bad-ass and… diverse. I can differentiate every one of them.
o Kaz Brekker – daaaamn. He has this aura of at first glance it’s like I want to… kinda… pity him because of his condition and THEN… B-O-O-M IN–YOUR–FACE ‘don’t underestimate me a-hole!’ So kickass! I just love and lil bit hate him.
“When everyone knows you’re a monster, you needn’t waste time doing every monstrous thing.”
o Inej Ghafa–she reminded me of Celaena Sardothien. That says it all. I think.
“Never something for nothing…”
o Matthias Helvar–I’m so crushing on him. He and Nina are icing of the story. I’m excited to see more of them.
Him coming home to infiltrate his un-infiltratable home. (If that’s even a word.)
o Jesper Fahey–he wasn’t given that much ‘attention’. He was more of like some accessory. The only highlight of his career was his so called secret ‘talent’.
o Wylan Van Eck–he is officially part of Kaz’ crew right?
I wish I knew what was in his mind.
• I wonder how long do we going to wait for the next one.

Friction by Sawyer BennettMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
So sexy… I just love Leary & Reeve… especially when they are together. They are so damn HOT!
I think Friction is now my favorite Sawyer Bennett book!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
LOVE reading it. You guys should read it too… I enjoyed it so much.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• I saw it on NetGalley. The ‘Read Now’ section and I was totally on board reading it. Glad I did.
• The best part was the first time they ‘met’.
GOSH! I don’t know about elevators but damn…
• The prologue though, I’m not a big fan. It’s like it has a male reader repeller or something.
• I also think that there’s some element that were probably good for the story but they were not explored or expanded, you know. Blah blah blah… I mean they would probably make the story longer, which I would like.
• The story only revolves on Leary and Reeve I think that makes it easier to read… and well, the lawyer stuff that I don’t understand that much adds to that too.
• The story is pretty predictable just like some of SB books. But the thing is they were well written that why I enjoyed reading them even though (I think) I know what is going to happen next.
• This cover, uh-uh I don’t like it.
Now that I finished reading this very sexy book… looking at the cover. It doesn’t fit. There’s nothing sexy about this cover.

Until Friday Night by Abbi GlinesMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
*sob*
. Aunt Coralee: In life we often have to make decisions that aren’t easy. But it doesn’t mean they aren’t right.
Maggie: But what if they’re wrong?
Aunt Coralee: fate steps in and fixes things. You just have to trust it.
It’s not TFIOS but yeah, when you know there’s a character that is going to die, it hard not to think of it. Well, on UFN it’s not the lover that is going to die.
I think this is an another side of Abbi Glines I never seen (well in this case, read) before.
#MUSTREAD
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• It was very raw and honest. And it has so much angst that it’s hard not to affect me. And I think, you’re THAT numb if you don’t.
• As bad as it sounds. I just want to end his suffering, because I really do feel it. I kept on wishing please, please, please.
It’s just that I don’t want the people in our house see/hear me crying.
• It’s kinda weird that the first part was very slow paced and then... suddenly I was turning the last page.
• It’s also weird that TFIOS had a huge impact on me. UGH! Even there’s no connection or whatsoever.

The Lies About Truth by Courtney C. StevensMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
5 Stars!
Lies. Lies. Lies.Lies. Lies.
But here’s some truth… this book is really good.
I’m impressed.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• Ha! I’m back with Project–Read–YAContemporary–Novels. *eye roll* Yes I just made that up… like a minute ago.
• I love the cover… but you have to admit… the guys there are older than the characters by much much.
• I don’t know what is wrong with me. When I read… for example, a Romance book that is written by one of my fave author sometimes I ended up disappointed. So I don’t know why I evade reading YAC… when they are this good.
• OR MAYBE, HarperCollins just happen to have an amazing collection.
• The Truth About Lies is a story of four friends grieving from the lost of their dearest friend/brother.
Sadie, Max, Grey and Gina. They are less than a month away from the one-year anniversary of Trent death. A death caused by an accident which they are all in.
What really happened that day?
• They met again… talked about that night.
That’s when they discovered the secrets, the lies and everything.
Now… they are on the ‘mission’ on making memories

“The end is closer than you think, Makar.” –Warren
Yeah!
Cassandra Clare and Holly Black did not disappoint!
5 STARS B****es! SO GOOD! I LOVE IT!
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• The Copper Gauntlet is more adventurous than The Iron Trial. I liked that they went outside the Magisterium. (I know it’s against the rules.) I also this one is more fun.
• My only gripe on this book is that it’s too short… I mean much as I love it, I kinda wanted. I waited a year. Duh!
• I wish there’s more of the Copper Year thingies. I love their studies on The Iron Trial; it’s one of my favorite.
• I also love that I got to know more of the main characters, the world and wonders of Magisterium, which I think is cool.
• The last part… it was almost like the first one. You gotta step it up.
But ‘THE HEAD’ thingy, damn, that was so effing creepy as hell…
• The Copper Gauntlet did not remind me of Harry Potter any more.
And I realized that after I finished it. Kudos for that! *thumbs up*
• But the thing is this series is definitely going to be on my every year’s TO-READ list.
• And I really do wish it was longer…

Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. MaasMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
4 STARS!!!
I did not enjoyed reading Queen of Shadows that much.
Why? WHY? F***ING WHY?!
I’m still heartbroken.
Chaol & Celaena are really done. And I am so fucking done. UGH!
It’s like I want to cry over it but I am beyond pissed off.
I lost hope… I’m went in a bad mood and I really hate Aelin.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• She’s Aelin now… and well I really hate typing her name… I always get the spelling wrong.
*eye roll*
• I don’t know if it’s just me or I just really hate the idea of Chaol is being replaced. Do you guys love Aelin & Rowan romance thingy? As much I love Rowan and his thingy… *giggle*…I don’t see or feel any chemistry. I’m sorry. It’s like Jamie & Cersei Lannister. I think Sarah J Mas is trying really hard to pair the two of them. And I think I will never be okay with it.
• Well, let’s put aside my gripes. The things happened are actually good.
So many things… and I can’t wait on what is going to happen next.
DAMN! I can’t even think of a scenario that… I can be excited for the months I am going to wait for the next book. And I really love that about how it ended.
• AND #SPOILERALERT Arobyn fucking Hamel is dead! YESSS! One of the best news in FICTION WORLD. *thumbs up*
• Oh yeah! I almost forgot.
Dorian and that freaky Manon. Hmmm…
WHAT NOW?
ME = VOMITING
• Speaking of Dorian… and the thing happened on the previous book. The collar thingy, damn I thought he’s going to be the most evil thing and then…
I kinda wanted more of that. Yes I don’t want the collar on him but… what now?
WHO IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT ‘EVIL’?
• *fingers crossed*
I think/ the next book will be years after this one.

Dirty Promises by Karina HalleMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
And the worst part was, as much as I was falling out of love … I still loved him something terrible.
Love was a terrible thing.
OhMyGod!
THAT IS IT?! NO MORE JAVIER BERNAL?!
Honestly, I am not satisfied AT ALL.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the book so much. But this one is full of violence, gore and etc.
I want to see the soft… softer & romantic side of Javier Bernal. I miss that… very much.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• There is this scene that I am not going to forget anytime soon. DAMN!
O.O
He made her shorter than him because she said men shorter than her is not her type.
I mean… he used a machete. O.O
It’s giving me chills.
• It was scarier than most Horror books. It’s not a Horror book but it was horrifying enough to be one. You don’t want be on Javier Bernal’s bad side.
• I hate Esteban… who doesn’t?
And then he and Luisa… *vomit* *vomit* *vomit*
• I want more… I’m not satisfied… I want a REAL ending.

Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae CarsonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
When I reached the last page…
It’s so weird… I felt triumphant… successful… it’s like I accomplished something that is so big.
So cool!
It was like I was with them throughout their journey, not as reader but as a character.
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• It has this “something” you are always looking on a book.
• I’m not sure if there’s going to be a sequel… but I kinda like it how it is.
I’m thinking of something that might happen if there’s a sequel… I just can’t.
The best thing about this is the “journey” to the gold rush.
• This one is a must read I recommend it to everyone. You’re going to love it as much as I did. *thumbs up.
• Reading Walk on Earth a Stranger is an experience. Don’t miss it!
• PS: In wish my ARC has a map. *grin*
• PSS: I wrote this review after I finished reading it. So I just saw on goodreads that it’s going to be a Trilogy.

I wanted to see a future where someone has the guts to do what needs to be done.”–Ellla
OHEMGEE!
WHAT THE F JUST HAPPENED?
SHE’S DEAD?!
FOR REAL?
*gasp*
WOOH! YAY!
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• I mean… I’m not a big fan of her, even if she dead it’s not that big deal for me. *shrug*
Well… just don’t make ‘him’ go berserk.
I do feel like, in some way that she is kinda hindrance to what the Garde’s mission. Its better this way.
• And then it turns out she just passed out. #notreallydead
• Setrákus Ra… I’M NOT SO SURE IS HE TOO IS DEAD.
DUH! There’s another book coming… it can’t not have a villain.
• Speaking of the next book. How many months are going to wait exactly? UGH!
Damn Pittacus Lore’s cliff–effing –hangers.
• Pittacus Lore–THE CHARACTER NOT THE AUTHOR.
OH MY GOD!
I LOVE THAT PART!
• And the war is like… starting to be real. Though I wish Pittacus Lore, the author, will make it bloodier. You know? The gorier the more fun. #BLOODTHIRSTYME
• I kinda wish that Mark had powers/Legacies too, like Sam. Lucky Sam.
• John’s Legacy–YES! I knew he’s more than just that. *thumbs up* I approved.
• *crossed fingers*
I hope that the whole gang will finally REALLY meet.

Kick Push by Jay McLeanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
GOOD ONE THERE! HAH! I LOVE IT!
2015 MUST READ!
*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• It’s been… a looong time since a book made me ‘feel’. It made me cry, happy, angry and frustrated.
• Honestly, I’m okay with not reading the (coming) second book. This is so good.
Though, if the second book has some good reviews I might. But I really feel like the story is done to me. I don’t want more. I’m happy how it ended.
• The story is really good, although I think the writing should level up a bit. I mean… it that powerful for me. I didn’t say the writing is not good… I said it should level up. *grin*
• CHARACTERS:
o Joshua–I admit the first part did it to me. I LOVE IT!
I shed a few tears. It’s like watching a movie. The one playing Joshua deserves an Oscar.
When I think of this book, that’s the first scenes that comes to my head.
DAMN! It’s so heartbreaking.
Joshua’s childhood is not bad. It’s almost perfect, he had loving parents, and they supported him on his passion–skating, he’s a god on skating world–and of course a girlfriend who loves him and his best friend.
At sixteen, Joshua got his gf preggers. Then after they told his parents, they kick him out. So they went to her parents… all is okay, they survived the labor. At seventeen, Joshua had a son. One day, the gf left. Joshua and his son, Tommy got kicked out from the gf’s parents’ house. A-HOLES!
HOW WILL HE AND HIS SON SURVIVED?!
o Becca–you can check all my reviews on goodreads and you’ll see that if the character on books had demons and shady past. Most of them, I get irritated. No offense with these people… But on books… ugh! They act so so… and it turns out it not that shady. It’s not believable.
Surprisingly, that not the case here… maybe because her demons… are hardcore or something… it makes me sympathize. The whole time I was reading, I keep on asking, what is wrong with her?! Its frustrating but I want to know the answer.
Describe her, hmm… because of an accident from her past she can’t ‘over speak’… speak too much… She likes taking photos and she craves man’s touch and repel on other touch. And yeah… I think there’s a shrink inside her.
o Tommy–he is Josh’s son. He’s so cute! I wanna met him. *grin*
o Chazarae–she’s the one who helped the father and son. Well I just want to thank her.
So… THANK YOU!
o Natalie–she is Tommy’s mum and Josh’s ex. The one who left them.
I understand her reasons for leaving them… But coming back like everything is fine is just… UGH!
What an effing bitch!
• The part where Joah and his dad reconcile… well and the part where Josh trying to reconcile with his dad. One of the best parts. LOVE IT! *thumbs up*
