Hey guys sorry, I haven’t posted in a while. I was on a much needed vacation but I am back and with new and exciting things. School just started so I am going to try and post as often as possible. Be patient with me! Get ready for what’s coming! XOXO
I read this book because Aestas Book Blog wrote about it and boy, am I happy that I did. This book is about Tate, who had an amazing neighbor and best friend name Jared, that helped her when her mother passed away. Then the summer before freshmen year, Jared goes to visit his dad for the summer for the first time and when he comes back, he does more than ignore her, he starts to bully her. For 2 years he makes her life a living hell, spreading rumors and giving her a bad reputation (that she did nothing to gain). When she comes back from a year abroad, something changes in Tate. She’s ready to fight back, but also, she wants to know what happened to Jared that made him hate her so much. This story is unbelievable, how they make you fall in love with the bad guy. The entire book I was fighting it because he was the bully, but when you learn his side of the story, you’re done for. Also, Tate is a badass! She doesn’t complain or let them walk all over her. She fights back! Not to mention, she doesn’t let Jared back into her life easily. She really makes him work for it. I loved that because most of the time, the girl just gives in so easily. When I started this book I told myself that I would get to at most 50% (I had a big exam the next day). Well, the joke was on me because I finished the entire book in one day! I couldn’t put it down. Definitely, 5 out of 5! GET IT HERE

Okay so this book is about a girl names Maggie who really hasn’t had the best life and never really seems to get a break. Then she meets Ran, a super hot paramedic that pushes her to confront everything that she has tucked away for years and pushes her to learn how to forgive. That was a major topic in this book, forgiveness. Gash and Ran is so good at it he makes it look easy! But this book was kind of difficult for me because I was having flash backs from when I read “Twilight” and I wanted to chuck my book across the room for how annoyed I would get with Bella. Maggie is now right up there with her! She was constantly throwing herself a pity party and complaining about everything. Like seriously; have you seen who is next to you, enjoy it girl! But two really good parts of this book was one, it really does show the importance of forgiving someone, that it’s more for you then for them, and second, it was HILARIOUS! Honestly I was laughing throughout the entire book. Between the text messages, the scissor scene, and the witty comments it had me literally laughing out loud. The book really is great; you just have to be patient (like really patient) when Maggie does something stupid that you want to slap her. Overall, I give this book 4.5 out of 5!
For those of you who don’t know this, I am IN LOVE with anything that has to do with Colleen Hoover. Some times I wish she could adopt me. It’s so much more than just her amazing books. It’s what her books gave me! A few weeks ago, I sent Colleen Hoover an email telling her how much I loved her books and SHE REPLIED! I think I died that day and came back from heaven. I shared my story with her and now I want to share it with you. This is the email that I sent her:

How your books have changed my life FOREVER
I just want to thank you for your AMAZING books! I read Slammed last for the first time last June when I was 18 and I have to say that my life has never been the same. My mother had passed away from breast cancer the year before and I didn’t live with my dad, so I lived with my grandparents for a year before moving away to college. My mom is never going to be there to give me advice on boys or life lessons through your books I feel like she did . Also, I have two sisters that were always sulking around and I just looked at my oldest sister one day because she was complaining about everything and I told her “At least we were dealt cards”. After that, she read the books and now she’s as big of aCoHo as I am. Through every book I’ve read, I always know that there is a message that my mom is trying to send me because she knew how much I loved to read and that would be the best way to get to me. So for that, I want to tell you THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES because you have given me something that very few people can.
The first book of The Moreno Series ,”Forever Mine”, is free for a limited time. You don’t want to miss out on this one. It’s about a girl named Sarah who has to move in with her family in California. That’s where she runs into Angel Moreno, the youngest Moreno brother. Angel is almost perfect, except for the fact that he doesn’t believe guys and girls can be just friends, which is kind of a problem considering that Sarah’s best friend (who she is dying to go back home to) Sydney, is a boy. Don’t waste more time GET IT!
Oh brother, did Nyrae Dawn do me in this time! I told you all that I was going to read “Façade” and that I did and all I can say is OMG! Okay, so for those of you who read “Charade”, we meet Adrian, Colt’s roommate and best friend who is always high, throwing parties, and thinks he has psychic abilities. Well now its Adrian’s turn at a shot at love and boy that’s exactly what it was, a shot…to my heart…on more than one occasion. The story is about Adrian and a girl names Delaney Cross whose pasts are connected by a tragic event. When they meet each other, the attraction is instant but Delaney is at war with herself because she knows how they’re connected and Adrian doesn’t. Yeah, you can imagine how I was while reading this freaking book! And it’s not just that event that has them so broken; it’s the lives that they lived and the people that where in them that made them that way. They know what it’s like to feel pain, they could see it in each other’s eyes and all they want to do is take it away the others sorrows, its poetic really ( that’s for those of you who’ve read it already.) And what is up with Nyrae Dawn coming up with the most creative nicknames in the world? First Tiny Dance with Colt and Chey, now Little Ghost! And I’m telling you all get ready, because once you get passed 75%, Nyrae really does you in and pulls the rug from beneath you (Nyrae ya got me! You really got me!). This book was amazing and I love how Nyrae was able to create a completely new story using a character from Charade and made you fall in love with him in a way that you didn’t even think you could. Everyone, go out there and read “Charade” if you haven’t already, then go read “Façade”. CLICK HERE! Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.
This is the second book to Cassie and Jack’s Story (the first is “The Perfect Game”), but really it’s more of 1.5 because it’s everything that happened from the end of the first book to just a little past the epilogue. But back to the nitty gritty. This book made me hate all forms of celebrity magazines and websites! Poor Cassie and Jack F’n Carter! Just when they thought that all of the things that happened with the bitch troll Chrystle were over and finally thinking they can be happy, BOOM! Ruthless people, the media, and she-who-must-not-be-named have to go and ruin everything, making Cassie and Jack question everything. I don’t want to give too much away but I will say that there were some pretty awesome highlights in the book, like when Melissa tells Cassie “Just remember one thing… when life gives you lemons, cut ’em open and squeeze the juice in life’s face!!!!! That’ll teach life to mess with you! HA!” I literally had to put the book down after reading that because I was laughing so hard. Oh, and Jack F’n Carter and those damn quarters! Please, can I be his Kitten, even for a day? But seriously, J. Sterling is amazing. I mean she was able to go back and tell the story in such a way that didn’t make you want to go insane and had me on my toes the entire time, although I knew how it was going to end (kudos J. Sterling). If you haven’t read ” The Perfect Game” then stop what you’re doing read it and then go read “The Game Changer” ASAP!
In this romance novel, we meet Liss, who is working the grave yard shift at a rundown diner and the highlight of her nights include talking to the cook and filling up ketchup bottles. Then Joe Hawk enters the diner. He’s an up-and-coming sexy rockstar and because Liss has no idea who he is, Joe is immediately drawn to her. The best part of this book is that Liss is a big girl (YAY! 1 point for the big girls)! As much as I love all of my other books, I couldn’t help but like this story because for once, it wasn’t some skinny girl with perfect hair, and perfect body getting the super-hot guy. It was a big girl with more to love. The only downer about this book is that it’s short (less than 100 pages) and so it moves pretty fast and it’s part of a long series (5 other books). But even if you don’t want to read the entire series (I didn’t) at least you can still read “Rocked” and enjoy the fact the big girls came out on top (no pun intended) this time around. If you want to read this book now’s your chance because it’s free. CLICK HERE!
