Review: Merry Christmas Alex Cross - Book #19 - Alex Cross Series - James Patterson - November 2012
I don't know about you , but I have read quite a few series that once they reach about Book #10 etc , they start to go downhill and lose their touch and excitement as its just a repeated story. However, not Alex Cross . I absolutely love the Alex Cross novels and this one was no different except for one thing which was different than in his other novels. Merry Christmas Alex Cross, as you can guess is set on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day and Alex is just wanting to have a nice day with his family but it seems he won't get the chance as the phone starts to ring and he is to stop a petty thief at the local church - a quick and easy case but the day isn't going to stop. In fact it's only going to get harder as the next case is a father who has taken his ex-wife and family hostage and he wants them all to suffer. Can Alex Cross save the family or will his hostage skills lack this christmas and one by one a member of the family dies ? Last but not least, it seems that Hala - the terroist is back , you might remember them from the last Alex Cross book as they were a main feature. Have they come to finish what they started ? Will they leave more or as many hostages this time around as they did last ? Will Alex Cross and his team be able to capture her once and for all ?
Find out in Merry Christmas, Alex Cross. The only downside that annoyed me in this novel was the busy plot with the three different cases as I prefer one case over all the book. However as it was an Alex Cross novel, the story did flow quite nicely.

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he

Review: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
