The Assassin Game by Kirsty McKay

 Follow me on BlogLovin Okay, awhile back I was at the book store and I could only afford to bring one book home with me. I ended up bringing The Haunting of Sunshine Girl by Paige McKenzie home, and I left The Assassin Game by Kirsty McKay behind at the bookstore. But then I saw it at the library, and decided to try it!   Title: The Assassin Game Author: Kirsty McKay Published: 2015 Stand alone novel.  Thriller and Mystery/Suspense Synopsis: Who will be left after lights out? Tag, you’re it… It’s 4:00 a.m. when they come for me. I am already awake, strung out on the fear that they will come, and the fear that they won’t. When I finally hear the click of the latch on the dormitory door, I have only a second to brace myself before— At Cate's isolated boarding school, Killer is more than a game—it’s an elite secret society. Members must avoid being “Killed” during a series of thrilling pranks, and only the Game Master knows who the “Kille...

Another [Anime Discussion]

    Follow me on BlogLovin! Who's ready for an ANIME Discussion?!?!?! *Raises both hands and waves them wildly* A couple weeks ago, someone (another anime lover) told me I couldn't sit through horror anime and he mentioned Another as the main one I wouldm't be able to watch. Of course, I took this as a challenge.   Now let me explain why this person said that, I typically watch and read all different kinds of genres- but usually people think I just watch the fantasy and romantic genre in anime (which is far from the truth my friends). So I sat down and watched Another . This anime is horror- though I would say it's got more gore, violence, and a goose-bump feeling that doesn't go away (especially when you watch the opening). Basically: A teenage boy moves to a new city, and attends the school his mother went to when she was in high school. Weird things begin to happen, and no one will tell him what's going on- until it's...

The Faelti by Rachel Pudsey | Book 2 in the Aronia Series

Follow me on BlogLovin!  Title: The Faelti Author: Rachel Pudsey Series: The Aronia Series Genre: YA, Fantasy      Synopsis:   Never wish upon a star   Sixteen-year-old Abigail Crumble's learning this the hard way. During a moment of weakness, Abigial wished on the stars only to discover she's cursed as a result. And she's been on a journey to rectify her mistake ever since. Trouble is, the quest to rid herself of the curse has proven to be much more arduous than have ever imagined. And far from over.   Seperated from her friends and believing them dead, trapped in the faelti camp and being held hostage by the evil Kai Sisu, Abigail is no closer to reaching Levana's Dwelling and breaking the curse than she was the day she left her hometown.   ~                       ~          ...

Hufflepuff Book Tag

I actually have two Hogwarts houses, strangely enough, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.  Though I actually am more Hufflepuff than I am Ravenclaw, so this book tag will be for my fellow Puffs! But feel free to join in even if you're in a different house :)  While I love to read and in the past I was a Ravenclaw, my personality fits Hufflepuff (and when I took the test again this was the result as well).  (Also this is the first book tag that I've made.) Valuing Hard Work:  A book that you had to work to get through. I would have to say Wintersong by S. Jae-Jones. I did not like the book, but when I think of a book that I had to literally push through, this book is what comes to mind for me. Dedication: A book series that you were very dedicated to when it was coming out. Ah, yes. So many series that fit this... actually only three. But I'd have to say the one I kept up with the most was the Divergent series by Veronica Roth. I'd bought book 1 shortly ...

The Watcher of the Night Sky by Rachel Pudsey

Follow me on Bloglovin! Title: The Watcher of the Night Sky Series: The Aronia Series Genre: Fantasy, YA Author:  Rachel Pudsey {Synopsis:   Fifteen-year-old Abigail Crumble was never much for talking about love and marriage and other such nonsense – no matter how often her boy obsessed best friend pestered her to do so. Or so she so adamantly proclaimed. Yet on the eve of her sixteenth birthday, Abigail makes the biggest, most contradictory mistake of her life. She wishes on the stars for love, or even the smallest amount of attention, without knowing the full impact of such a feat. Abigail soon finds her simple life in chaos as princes, men and mysterious creatures come to her door, each adamantly in love with her and refusing to leave her side. Mixing fantasy and romance, The Watcher of the Night Sky begins the tale of one girl’s quest to rid herself of a curse that was definitely far more than she wished for. }       ...

Guarded Heart by Addison Carmichael | Book 2

Follow me on BlogLovin! Title: Guarded Heart Series: Book 2 in Guarded Series Author: Addison Carmichael Published: June 1st, 2018 Synopsis:      It’s been a year since Andee Peter’s father unsuccessfully sent an assassin through the dimensional veil to hunt down and kill her on earth, and she’s been living incognito with her Guardian Prime boyfriend Mick Barron in Roundup, Montana ever since. Now her Iroment king father, Lydon tel-Mortem, kidnapped her foster sister with the threat to kill the little girl unless Andee crosses the divide and faces him on their home planet of Noma where his own power is strongest.    But in the process of sending her military guardian to rescue little Marie, Andee falls down the dimensional rabbit hole instead, landing in Noma—alone.    Not in the modern metropolis of Umbrey she aimed for either, but in the wilds of neutral territory. There she’s captured by a band of rebels led by a y...
