June New Releases! ~ looking forward to read

Hey guys!

In this post I'm going to be sharing the June book releases that I'm most excited about.

I'm pretty sure there are more than the one's that I'm sharing today, but this are the ones of authors that I love and I've been patiently (yeah right) waiting for months!

Today I only have two books

The first one is Zack (Cold fury Hockey #3) by Sawyer Bennett.

This one releases in June 9th.  It's in a week so yes, I am very excited!

The last one is When You're Back (Rosemary Beach #12) by Abbi Glines.

This one releases in June 30th. Literally at the end of the month!

You probably don't know this but Abbi Glines is my favorite author. And it's so weird because I've never reviewed one of her books in my blog! But I just find all her stories fascinating and amazing. Like I've read the whole Sea Breeze series and the eleven books that have come out so far of the Rosemary Beach series.

May Wrap-up!

Hey guys!

Today's post is going to be about what I got to read this month and a brief description about the books. Hope you enjoy!


The first book that I finished this month was Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover.

This book is about a 22 year old named Sydney who discovers that her boyfriend is cheating on her with her "best friend".  And her sexy neighbor knew about it! What she doesn't expect is that her passion for music and getting to know her neighbor is going to change her life forever.


I honestly loved this book. If you haven't, then you should totally read it!





Then I read The Hook Up by Kristen Callihan.

This one is about a football player ( I love me some football players) named Drew Baylor who is failing one of his classes and needs a tutor ASAP because if he fails, he gets benched. That's why he seeks the help of the only girl that got an A on the test to tutor him, the only problem is that she can't stand him. And everyone loves Drew Baylor!

Really loved this book and it's characters.




Then I read the second book in this series which is called The Friend Zone.

This book features Drew Baylor's best friend Gray Grayson. Gray and Ivy, daughter of Gray's soon-to-be agent, become fast friends when she sends him a text about not damaging her car. Soon they feel more than friends to each other, the only problem is that Ivy doesn't go out with her father's clients.








After reading this two books i felt like reading more sport-romance type of book and in the goodreads recommendations I saw this and I was like "Oh yeah I want to read this". And I'm talking about The Deal by Elle Kennedy.

Hannah Wells has had a traumatic experience in her life. When she meets Garret Graham they make a deal. She will tutor Garret so that he doesn't fail a class and it doesn't threaten his future, and he'll help get her crush's attention.









And then I read the second book in the series which is The Mistake.

This book follows the story from one of the character of the first book, one of Garret's best friends John Logan. Here we get to know him a little more deeper and the reason why he can't go pro.

I feel like I can't give anymore deets without spoiling sooo…







After reading some sporty-romance books, I read Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec.

I don't know what to say about this one. Just that is hilarious and you should read it.










And finally i finished the month with Beautiful Bastard by Christina Lauren.

This one is about an ambitious intern with a Boss that is sexy and beautiful but is a bastard. This one was really good. Really recommend it!











I think I had a productive month of reading. Yay!

Looking forward to read ~ March

Hey guys! I'm going to show you the books that I am looking forward to read this month. I decided that I will make this posts in the beginning of every month, and at the end with the ones that I could read and finish. So here we go!

The First book I started reading was Garrett, by Sawyer Bennett

I'm already finishing Garrett and so far so good. 

After finishing that book I plan to read…

After We Fell by Anna Todd

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

And Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover

Those are the ones that I plan to read, but I'm pretty sure I'll be reading other books and you'll see them in the March Wrap-up post at the end of this month.

Jet (Marked Men #2) by Jay Crownover ~ Book Review!

Jet by Jay crownover

Published: May 28th, 2013

Publisher: William Morrow Paperbacks

Series: Marked Men #2

Format: kindle

Pages: 416

Main Caracters: Jet & Ayden

Synopsis from goodreads:

With his tight leather pants and a sharp edge that makes him dangerous, Jet Keller is every girl’s rock and roll fantasy. But Ayden Cross is done walking on the wild side with bad boys. She doesn’t want to give in to the heat she sees in Jet’s dark, haunted eyes. She’s afraid of getting burned from the sparks of their spontaneous combustion, even as his touch sets her on fire.

Jet can’t resist the Southern Belle with mile-long legs in cowboy boots who defies his every expectation. Yet the closer he feels to Ayden, the less he seems to know her. While he’s tempted to get under her skin and undo her in every way, he knows firsthand what happens to two people with very different ideas about relationships. Will the blaze burn into an enduring love. . . or will it consume their dreams and turn them to ashes?

My review:

4.5 of 5 stars

Let me start with how much I appreciate Jay Crownover's work. She is an amazing author and I love the way she writes and makes you want to keep reading her books. The characters are amazing, the setting is amazing and everything about it is amazing. And you're asking yourself... Then why a 4 star review? Well let's get deeper in this story...

We were introduced to Jet and Ayden  in RULE (which I also enjoyed, a lot) the first book in the Marked Men Series. This is a series that, for now, it's going to be a six book series (So exciting!!!). I thought I wouldn't like  Jet because he was going to be the crazy rocker friend who had a different girl every night. Which is partly true. But, then you read this book and you just can't help fall in love with him. he was so sweet and he sang to Ayden every night and they were a mess together, but they were perfect together.

The only reason I gave this book 4.5 stars was because of Ayden. 

Ayden, Ayden,Ayden. She just pissed me off! I'm not going to say anything more about the matter because I don't want to give spoilers but yes, she pissed me off. This would've been a 5 star review if it wasn't for her.

Anyway, I totally recommend it and the first book too!

About the author:

I'm supposed to share interesting details about myself so that my readers get to know me so here we go in no particular order: I'm an natural redhead even though I haven't seen my real hair color in years, I'm a big fan of tattoos and have a half sleeve on either arm and various other pieces all over the place, I've been in the bar industry since I was in college and it has always offered interesting insight into how men and women interact with each other, I have 3 dogs that are all crazy, I live in Colorado and love the snow, I love music and in all reality wish I could be a rock star not a writer or a bartender but I have zero talent so there is that. 
I love to write, love to read and all I'm interested in is a good story with interesting characters that make the reader feel something.

Breaking the Rules by katie McGarry ~Book Blitz!

Breaking the Rules (Pushing the Limits #1.5)

by Katie McGarry 

Release Date: 12/08/14

Harlequin Teen

Summary from Goodreads:

A summer road trip changes everything in this unforgettable new tale from acclaimed author Katie McGarry.

For new high school graduate Echo Emerson, a summer road trip out west with her boyfriend means getting away and forgetting what makes her so... different. It means seeing cool sights while selling her art at galleries along the way. And most of all, it means almost three months alone with Noah Hutchins, the hot, smart, soul-battered guy who’s never judged her. Echo and Noah share everything — except the one thing Echo’s just not ready for.

But when the source of Echo’s constant nightmares comes back into her life, she has to make some tough decisions about what she really wants — even as foster kid Noah’s search for his last remaining relatives forces them both to confront some serious truths about life, love, and themselves.

Now, with one week left before college orientation, jobs and real life, Echo must decide if Noah's more than the bad-boy fling everyone warned her he'd be. And the last leg of an amazing road trip will turn... seriously epic.

Rule (Marked Men #1) by Jay Crownover ~ Book Review!

Rule by Jay Crownover

Published: May 7th, 2013

Publisher: William Morrow Paperbacks

Series: marked Men #1

Format: Kindle

Pages: 432

Main Characters: Rule & Shaw

Synopsis from Goodreads:

Shaw Landon loved Rule Archer from the moment she laid eyes on him. Rule is everything a straight--A pre-med student like Shaw shouldn’t want--and the only person she’s never tried to please. She isn’t afraid of his scary piercings and tattoos or his wild attitude. Though she knows that Rule is wrong for her, her heart just won’t listen.

To a rebel like Rule Archer, Shaw Landon is a stuck-up, perfect princess-and his dead twin brother’s girl. She lives by other people’s rules; he makes his own. He doesn’t have time for a good girl like Shaw-even if she’s the only one who can see the person he truly is.

But a short skirt, too many birthday cocktails, and spilled secrets lead to a night neither can forget. Now, Shaw and Rule have to figure out how a girl like her and a guy like him are supposed to be together without destroying their love . . . or each other.

My review:

4.5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was easy to read and drew me in from the beginning. 

Rule and Shaw have known each other since they were kids. Rule is a bad boy who started getting worse when his twin brother, Remy, died. Shaw was Remy's best friend and all the Archers thought they were involved romantically. 

Rule and Shaw are total opposites. Shaw is a good girl and Rule is a bad boy. I think that was one of the things that drew me in the most. Rule can have his mood swings and sometimes is a total duche but then, he was good with Shaw and so sweet. 

Really recommend this book and can't wait to read about the other tattooed bad boys...

Opposition (Lux series #5) by Jennifer L Armentrout - Book review!

Sorry that I haven't been posting. It's just, school started and I have been swarmed with so much homework and exams. I actually made this review some time ago, when I finished reading it but I haven't had time to edit it, So here it is!

So. Today I'm bringing to you  my thought and feelings about the LAST book in the Lux series. Because it's the Last book I'm going to divide this review in Non-spoilery part (for those who haven't read it and just want to know if it's worth your time) and Spoilery part (for those who have read it and want to know if we have the same thoughts) because, you know, I really need to get all my feelings in to this review.  Ok, so let's begin!
Here is the link to my review of Origin (Lux series #4): Origin

Opposition by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Published: August 5. 2014

Publisher: Entagled Teen

Series: The Lux Series #5

Format: Paperback

Pages: 533

Main Characters: Katy and Deamon





Synopsis from Goodreads:

Katy knows the world changed the night the Luxen came.

She can't believe Daemon welcomed his race or stood by as his kind threatened to obliterate every last human and hybrid on Earth. But the lines between good and bad have blurred, and love has become an emotion that could destroy her—could destroy them all.

Daemon will do anything to save those he loves, even if it means betrayal.

They must team with an unlikely enemy if there is any chance of surviving the invasion. But when it quickly becomes impossible to tell friend from foe, and the world is crumbling around them, they may lose everything— even what they cherish most—to ensure the survival of their friends…and mankind.

War has come to Earth. And no matter the outcome, the future will never be the same for those left standing.

My review

    

Let's talk about the cover. I really didn't like what they did with Obsidian and Onyx being Lux beginnings and Opal and Origin being Lux consequences. Then the covers... Oh my god they took out Daemon and Kat, as I pictured them, and put half a girl's face! what is that! I was super disappointed with them. Opposition wasn't THAT bad because it had Daemon. But still,  I think they could've done amazing things with the last book... Now enough about the ranting.

I enjoyed it. But it's not my favorite one from the series. It obviously had that Kat and Daemon chemistry that we love. It had battles ( which I love). But I thought it was going to be longer, I wanted a BIG book with a Big finale. Besides that I seriously recommend the book and series. all the books are easy to read. And to those who haven't read it, Well you need to get on it! First book is called Obsidian if you want to search it.

Spoilery review

So I've already talked about how I didn't really like the change of covers and that I enjoyed the book. Now let's get deeper...

First things first... 

Other than being a little to short for a final book in a series I enjoyed it.

When Kat saw Daemon for the first time, and he was denying that he had feelings for her, my hart literarily broke. I was so mad with Daemon! But then,  we all knew he couldn't betray her like that. 

When I read the scene where Sadi told Kat she was actually an Origin and she knew what was her plans and Daemon's  I was soo mind blown. I wasn't expecting her to be an Origin. And then Katy made the car they were in flip? that was glorious! 

I loved it when Hunter and Serena appeared, because I really liked them in Obsession. The part were they met Lotho (the leader of the Arum) I found it so creepy. For a moment I thought they wouldn't convince him to fight against the Luxen. But as we know the Arum killed a lot of Luxens. 

Dee... Dee, Dee, Dee. I was so mad! I knew she couldn't help it because Daemon had Kat and Dawson had Bethy. But Dee had no one. When she was fighting Daemon, and wanted to kill him, I wanted to knock some sense in to her. I mean, she threw Katy through a wall!  and there was a Katy-size hole in the wall. But then katy started telling her about Adam and that she loved her like a sister. That did the trick!

 Now I really did enjoy the epilogue. Kat and Daemon enrolled in college. Dee had Archer. Dawson had Beth and baby Ashley.  The only thing that made me sad was Luc. Sure he now had all of them as a family but I wanted to see Luc with Nadia! Why did she have to die. I would have liked a side story about Luc. It would've been awesome a love story with Nadia but, oh well...

My review

I'm in love with this series. This is probably the longest series I've read that I know I'm going to finish. Because, you know, sometimes in this kind of series that is long,  that every book is a stand-alone and every book has different stories you feel that by the book before the final one, the series has lost the meaning of it all. But this series has kept me in since book one and all of them are super amazing.

But, moving on to the actual book...

I really enjoyed Mark & Meredith's (or as they call themselves in the book, M&M) story. It was soooo sweet and I definitely didn't expect Mark to be that way. If you've read the past six books you'll understand what I mean.
And Meredith, she was perfect for Mark in every way. They are perfect for each other. I really enjoyed seeing a little of the lives of the others as Always. But What I really enjoyed was that Kristen included Jax (Meredith's best friend) in the story. Like Jax going with Meredith and the other girls to "Girls Night Out", everyone enjoying the addition of Jax in the whole Bunch including Jax boyfriend Logan as well. 

The only thing that I didn't really like was that Meredith and Mark went back to being normal too fast after they reencountered. I guess I wanted more of them getting to know each other and the different way they thought from when they were 18. I don't know maybe I'm crazy? 

Either way I think the book overall was amazing. Definitely recommend it and Fall can't get here soon enough for the final installation and Dominic's story in the With Me In Seattle Series.
