Unteachable by Leah Raeder : A Review!

Hello!

I'm back, apologies again for no post on Friday, last week was pretty hectic add in to that my computer breaking and it doesn't making blogging very easy!
So today I bring you a book review of:

Unteachable
by 
Leah Raeder


Tagline: N/A 

As a fan of books like Slammed by Colleen Hoover and Gabriel's Inferno by Sylvain Reynard, you can understand I was curious when I came across yet another teacher/ student romance book that received quite a number of positive ratings. Given I hadn't yet had a bad experience I decided to give it a shot. It was a bad decision I'll tell you that much now.

I know what you are thinking. Boy that was fast. Honestly as soon as I finished writing Wednesday's post about the books I wanted to start reading I immediately started reading this book. Well, just a snippet of what's to come... 

This book was not what I expected it to be. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I guess you'll have to wait and see!

Simple Perfection by Abbi Glines : A Review!

Hi!

What's that no more books I did not finish? Well I've decided to give that series of posts a rest for a little bit mainly because I'm at Uni right now and therefore can't cart my book case round with me, making if difficult to track down all the books I didn't finish reading so, for now Books I Did Not Finish is over. I know you're all so disappointed! But never fear, I may slip one in here and there when I'm home for the weekend!

So instead today is a book review and a new release at that!

Simple Perfection (Rosemary Beach# 5)
by
Abbi Glines



Simple Perfection is the fifth book in the Rosemary Beach Series by Abbi Glines (other books in this series are, Fallen Too Far, Never Too Far, Twisted Perfection and Forever Too Far). Simple Perfection is the continuation of Woods (first seen in Fallen Too Far - Rush and Blaire's story) and Della's story from book 1 in the Perfection series, Twisted Perfection.

Did that make sense? A little confusing but let's role with it.

One Tiny Lie vs Ten Tiny Breaths by K A Tucker : A Review!

Hi, everyone.

First apologies, I know I usually get my posts done and uploaded for 10am everyday so going by that this post is a little bit later than usual. However, like I said last week I have been busy but I am determined to keep to my schedule. Besides it is still Wednesday so at least I didn't miss a day!
We're still on track to keep up with the posting schedule I started in July, which quite frankly amazes me, I'm not the best at following through on my plans!

Any-who today's post is a review of sorts. And I just realised I have been posting a lot more about books recently, I hope you don't mind that. Any way, so today I thought I would do a comparison/ review of One Tiny Lie and Ten Tiny Breaths, both by K A Tucker, One Tiny Lie is Livie Cleary's story, whilst Ten Tiny Breaths is Kacey Cleary's story (but you knew this right because you know I love this book).

I enjoyed both of these books let's just get that out there right now. This is by no means a bad review, however there is one that I like considerably more than the other, but that doesn't mean that the other isn't any good. So if you want to find out what the hell I'm harping on about or if you are considering reading these books and want to know a little more carry on reading!

Book Tag: Leave Me Alone I'm Reading!!

Hello Everybody!
I'm sorry for doing another Tag post, I'm just a little busy and up in the air at the moment but I still wanted to get a post up for you guys because I made a commitment god-damn it!

Any way this tag is obviously a book tag. It asks a bunch of questions about people you would kill off, couples/friendships you ship, which characters you would want to be for 24hrs. Well I have watched a few of these tag's on YouTube and they entertain me so I'm hoping they will entertain you to!

Ruin by Rachel Van Dyken: A Review!

Hello everyone,

If you are regular readers of my blog then you already know that I don't really write positive book reviews, hence why I decided to start doing a monthly book favourites, as my way of making up for that but also as a break from all the book bashing I seem to be so fond of doing.

However, every now and then you come across a book that you love so much that you just have to spread the word. So today I am doing a positive book review of . . . .

If I Stay by Gayle Forman - A Review!

Hello everyone!

So how many of you have tickets to go and see the Mortal Instruments today or this week? Are you as excited as I am, don't forget I did a nail art design based on the Shadow Hunter Runes that you can checkout by CLICKING HERE!

On to the topic for today's post.

You may recall me mentioning or rather recognising on Monday that I had't really done a positive review of a book in a long time, that is unless you count monthly favourites (which I don't) so today to mix things up just a little I will be doing a good review.

If I Stay

Tag! My Top 2 Books From 6 Genres!

Hello everyone,
as promised it is Wednesday and here I am with another post for you all. Today's post is as the title says, my top two books from six genres tag. This is a tag that was started by Benjaminoftomes (click the link to see his video) in the YouTube book community. So let's dive right in!

Category Number 1: DISTOPIAN!

DIVERGENT by VERONICA ROTH

Look guys, I don't know how many times I've said this now, it's one of my favourite books, I couldn't not include it! So Divergent is set in a futuristic Chicago where society has split into 5 factions which are, Abnegation, Candor, Amity, Erudite, and Dauntless. At the age of sixteen each citizen will choose whether to stay in the faction they were born in or to move to a new faction and never see their friends or family again.

BLOOD RED ROAD by MOIRA YOUNG

I freaking LOVED this book. It was just plain awesome for once, the girls soul focus and attention wasn't on falling for a guy, it was all about saving her little brother. She didn't want to get involved with the guy because she didn't want the distraction but you know every young adult book has some form of romance so she obviously gave in eventually. I am yet to read the sequel normally I would reserve judgement but I can tell you now I'm not going to like it. Why? LOVE TRIANGLE! That's why, for the love of god, why ruin the potential of the first book by using such a generic and tired old plot device.
