Review: Midnight Blue

Image
Midnight Blue by L.J. Shen My rating: 5 of 5 stars “Life is full of secrets, and narrow-minded people, and sugar-coated, empty conversations that hold no weight. What’s real is what’s inside us. What’s important is what we feel.” -Alex Winslow (the rock god of our hearts, body and soul) Characters and Oneliner of Story (sort of): Indie -our heroine for this story and hanny (you'll know what I am talking about once you read this) to our rock god Alex. Alex-our rock god who has been lately been spiraling out of control and needs assistance (not that he's willing)... Lucas-Drummer, friend, and enemy of Alex for a time (again, read the story). Alfie- Is our comic relief for this special story...a very interesting relief... Jenna -Alex's manager and amigo (though not so friendly). Natasha, Craig and Ziggy - Indie's family and they're not in good shape tbh... Fallon-our rock god's obsession for the remainder Will Bushell -Public ene...

Review: Broken Knight

Image
Broken Knight by L.J. Shen My rating: 5 of 5 stars “Make mistakes. Be free. Be bold. Treat teenage as a verb." -Rosie Le Blanc-Cole. (Not sure if it was her, and correct me if it wasn't her). Yes, that quote is everything that Luna and Knight's story stands for, and what a chaotic ride that was, y'all moonshines. Note: She included my favorite song Just my type by The Vamps! AAAAAAAH, that was just freakin wonderful!!!! I love this author and this book even more, my own personal souvenir for remembrance... Back to the review board... Storyline (Summarized) They were best friends since childhood. Boy and girl. Wallflower and out-flower (my version of a non-wallflower). And each other's crushes (though Luna (like, the girl she is) realizes this much later...). Now Knight aims to make Luna his girl and to be her Knight in white, shining armor, despite the fact that Luna has changed and will no longer want him as a knight in white sh...

Review: Pretty Reckless

Image
Pretty Reckless by L.J. Shen My rating: 5 of 5 stars "Nobody wants to be a bad person but some people like me just can't help ourselves." -Daria. Mhm, so so right. Definitely defines Penn and Daria's relationship in such exact detail. Storyline (Summarized): They were best friends, each other's first loves. But then shit hit the fan, and the tables turned. Now he loathes her guts and she wants to be his last memory in every way. But not every love story -turned to a revenge hunt remains that. This is their story. My version of the story: So much drama, so many secrets. So many lies, so much hate. But yes, so much love. We follow the plot first with Jamie and Melody's daughter in flashback mode to when her life was hell, aka Via, the one her mother seemed to love more than her real daughter. Fast forward to Penn Scully and her first kiss. And the seaglass necklace. Again fast forwarding to present time, where we get introduce...

Review: Vicious

Image
Vicious by L.J. Shen My rating: 5 of 5 stars Note: I had finished this novel a few months before but for the life of me I could not find the time for it, so here is the review, finally. "He was in my veins, but I still managed to get under his skin." -Emilia. Yup, in every way possible. Such a love story. Anyway. My version of how this story goes: Vicious, Baron Spencer (but don't tell him I told you his full name, he will slaughter me for sure) is a notorious block of ice that's been known to play and push his limits and raise hell, stretching them thin and wide, that spells trouble for the rest of his group. Emilia Le Blanc aka Cherry Blossom, is the cheap help's daughter, who goes to school alongside Big Bad Wolf, and is the one despised the most (She doesn't deserve her place in that school, cheap help and a scholarship, what horror to come across!) especially by Vicious, him raising hell for her every time. Good times. ...
