Book Suspension

The beginning of January I had to suspend myself from reading because I had been reading too much. At least that's what they say. To be honest I don't think I was reading enough. I was preparing for my ACT on February 9, 2013. I needed to concentrate, I needed a clear mind.  Once I finished my ACT I got my kindle out of the closet and started reading. I had no time to waste. YOLO applies to my life of reading. 

First book: 

Book Description: 
Mature YA-romance
Seventeen-year old Sarah’s life is turned upside down when her single mom is sent to jail. She’s forced to move, leaving behind everything she’s ever known, including her best friend Sydney. Lost and bitter in a new school, her one goal is to save money and move back home. Then she meets Angel Moreno.

Enigmatic but gorgeous, Angel is almost too good to be true. Except for one thing, his archaic belief that guys and girls can never be “just friends”. The problem? Sarah’s best friend Sydney is not a girl.

With their unexpected romance intensifying to places neither ever experienced, how long can Sarah keep Angel in the dark about the guy waiting for her back home?

Not as exciting as I expected. 
It kinda made me mad because I did not enjoy it really until the end.
It was so cheesy but I love cheesy but this kinda cheese was just not my kind of cheese.
I'm probably not making sense but it took me a while to get into the book. It seemed slow at times. 
Their problems seemed to be not book worthy to me... until the end. 
The end I have to say is the only thing that did not disappoint. 
However it made me so mad how obvious things did not seem to this girl. How cant you not see!! how?!!!

Overall I'm not really sure if I want to continue the series but I just might out of curiosity. 
And I have to say when it finally happen that was so unromantic I was about to throw my kindle away just because I couldn't stand it anymore. I mean there could have been roses involved or something. AHHH! GOSH I'll get over it... for now. 


Second book:

Book Description: 
There are those who don’t get luck handed to them on a shiny platter, who end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, who don’t get saved.

Luck was not on Callie’s side the day of her twelfth birthday when everything was stolen from her. After it’s all over, she locks up her feelings and vows never to tell anyone what happened. Six years later her painful past consumes her life and most days it’s a struggle just to breathe.

For as long as Kayden can remember, suffering in silence was the only way to survive life. As long as he did what he was told, everything was okay. One night, after making a terrible mistake, it seems like his life might be over. Luck was on his side, though, when Callie coincidentally is in the right place at the right time and saves him.

Now he can’t stop thinking about the girl he saw at school, but never really knew. When he ends up at the same college as Callie, he does everything he can to try to get to know her. But Callie is reserved and closed off. The more he tries to be part of her life, the more he realizes Callie might need to be saved.


My Review: February 16, 2013

5/5 rating
First of all look at that cover! This book was good inside and out. 
I really enjoyed it. Read it in 2 days.
It was wonderfully written and all the characters were fantastic except for him... Who does that and why?to your own kid?!?
Seth and Luke were just awesome they made the story complete. 
The book was perfectly paced. Usually I complain that they fell in love too fast or not fast enough. But here everything just flowed into each other. There was no cheesiness going on. I cried,I laughed, I loved.
The things they had to go through was heart breaking. 
I just loved it! I can't wait to read the next one.


Third Book: 

Book Description: 
Sometimes discovering the truth can leave you more hopeless than believing the lies…

That’s what seventeen-year-old Sky realizes after she meets Dean Holder. A guy with a reputation that rivals her own and an uncanny ability to invoke feelings in her she’s never had before. He terrifies her and captivates her all in the span of just one encounter, and something about the way he makes her feel sparks buried memories from a past that she wishes could just stay buried.

Sky struggles to keep him at a distance knowing he’s nothing but trouble, but Holder insists on learning everything about her. After finally caving to his unwavering pursuit, Sky soon finds that Holder isn’t at all who he’s been claiming to be. When the secrets he’s been keeping are finally revealed, every single facet of Sky’s life will change forever

I really enjoyed this book.
I had to have a day to take it all in before writing this. Too many emotions at that moment.
It completely broke my heart how everything turned out in the end, the reality of things was disturbing.  I was happy with Karen I don't think anyone else could have thought of doing what she did.
Knowing that people like Sky's dad exist in this planet saddens me.
Sky was super brave for being able to go through hell and back and Holder was just awesome for being there for her at every moment. 

After everything I understood why he was reacting to things the way he was. His sister playing a small big part in the story. 
I loved the reason behind Six's name, rebellious she was.

Colleen Hoover does it again! 
Cant wait for the next one.
