A fun and fluffy read for those who love to believe hat fairy tales really can come true.

Yikes these two and their relationship. And that ending! I suspected this for a long time but to finish it like that - I really NEED to read the next one now - even thought I know it's gonna be a lot of repetitive stuff like this series seems to constantly do. Oh Hardin, what will you do next?

This book was probably the best of the lot. There was drama of course, but it was much more settled and mature than the other books. I loved the epilogue/s and how Tessa and Hardins story ended. Well done Anna Todd, as frustrating as these books were I couldn't stop reading them and I was addicted. I had to find out what would happen in the end. Tessa and Hardin - you're crazy but I love you.

So I was a bit unsure about whether or not to rate this three or four stars. I liked it, it was an enjoyable read, but I didn't have the same feeling as when I read Mhairi's other books where I really wanted to get to the end.
Delia was a great character, as was her best friend Emma and her friend the Naan. Adam was equal parts intriguing and frustrating and I just disliked Paul.
Finding out your boyfriend/fiancé of a few hours has been sleeping with someone else would be horrible. I just couldn't contemplate how she could be in two minds about forgiving him for most of the book. I mean, once a cheater always a cheater right? And Delia's job, I found it kind of hard to follow at times. Although I did enjoy the idea and illustrations behind the fox comics. The ending was kind of predictable, which I don't mind in books, but I just felt something was missing.
I don't know, I enjoyed this book but I wasn't as into it as her other books.

ARC Kindly offered in exchange for an honest review.

This was my first Cindy Miles book and I wonder how I didn't know about her before this. I was instantly hooked, the characters were witty and sarcastic, and I felt that this made them very relatable.

"My f***ng* ovaries just started breakdancing. Old school style. Like 1984"

As Memory began to fall for Jace, so did I.

"And a buttery-voiced, muscular, bow-legged cowboy with soulful eyes recognised a quote from Titanic, and gave me a grin. Yeah, thats when I fell for Jace Beaumont.
Only, I didn't really know it.
Not until it was way, way too late."

And so it begins. I was constantly waiting for the hammer to drop about Memories secret, and that kept me in suspense yet frustrated me at the same time.
And then it happens, the secrets out.
I don't want to ruin it for anyone so I won't say any more other than how I felt for the last part of the book. I agree with other reviews saying they wish there was an epilogue, so we could see how the story gets wrapped up and if they get the happily ever after, like so many other novels do. However, at the same time I feel the last chapter summed things up in a fitting way. Quite a few feels at the end of this book, but it was a great ending and a really fun read. Now I need to go and read the first two. Well done Cindy Miles, this one had me hooked.

It was great to read some more about Mare and Shepley but this one didn't hold my attention like the others did. It felt a bit rushed and jumped forward in time too much. It read it really quickly, and yes I know it's only a novella so it's not as big as the actual main books in this series, but it just wasn't as gripping as they were. I recommend reading it if you're a fan of the beautiful series, both BD and the Maddox Brothers books, but don't expect anything overly amazing. Not terrible, but not great either.

Seriously. Abbi Glines can do no wrong. Her writing style is so addictive and she always writes characters, both male and female that have you hooked and falling in love with them. Swoon worthy guys in every novel. This book was a great example of showing how people deal with grief in their lives and how it affects not only themselves and others around them. I loved Maggie and Wests connection and everything about their relationship in the book. Couldn't put it down, as is usually for me with Abbi's books. Love loved it. Looking forward to the next in the series. More please?

This is the first Cecilia Ahern book I've read which I haven't been that fussed on. I found the storyline hard to believe and it just wasn't the kind of book I could really get into. I made myself finish it. I suppose it's a good idea in theory, but it didn't have the oomph some other books have.

At first I thought this would be annoying when I began reading the book and discovered it flicks back and forth between the past and present. But the way the story is told its runs seamlessly and fills in parts of the story as you go. This was a fantastic story and I once I got into it, I was constantly wanting to find out what had happened. A great read.

R J Palacio is adamant that there wont be a sequel to Wonder, and I don't really know if that's what I would call this, as the stories all run pretty much parallel to Auggies story in Wonder itself. This one explores the individual stories of Julian, Chris and Charlotte, and gives some insight into whats it like to be friends with Auggie, or to go to school with him and learn to accept his unusual appearance.This was a great book, although if asked, I probably couldn't really explain why I liked it so much I couldn't put it down. I got sucked into the middle school drama that goes on, but at the same time there were alot of underlying lessons about life and how people react to certain things. For example Julian and his Grandmere and the stories they have common. This was a fast, easy and enjoyable read, and if you're a fan of Auggie and Wonder, I'd definitely recommend it!
