Review: They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera

They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Mateo and Rufus both got the call early morning that today was the day they are going to die. Because of circumstances, they found each other on the life friend app and was able to meet one another in real life. Both had their demons to face and their goals to achieve within 24 hours and both were there for one another.

The memories and Adventures that they will have will be memorable to them and their close friends and family.

I read this book for my book club, and if it wasn't for the club oh, I probably wouldn't have picked this up to read it. This book definitely makes you think about life and death and the decisions and choices that one makes in that regard. I've come to the decision that I wouldn't want a phone call between midnight and 3 a.m. to tell me if I was dying that day. Sure we are all on our way to dying but having the stress and anticipation for the next 21 hours doesn't appeal to me.

I wish that this book had more information about the death cast phone calls in the life friend app and how this process works. There are a lot of unanswered questions that left me wondering the background story of this idea that the author came up with. I feel like if he wrote another book, a prequel to the story, to explain all of these questions I have I would definitely pick that up in a heartbeat and read it!

While this book leaves the reader pondering about life and death I feel like some of the actions that were taken from the characters were a bit interesting... The romance between the two main characters felt forced to me instead of natural. But with only a few hours of meeting one another that's probably to be expected.

Overall I am glad that I read this book because I got me thinking, deep-thinking. However it won't be a book that I will reread in the future. It is definitely a good discussion book though!

Review: 99% Faking It by Chris Cannon

99% Faking It by Chris Cannon
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I received this eARC novel from NetGalley. This is my honest review.

Lisa has had a crush on her friend Matt for a while now but when she got denied by him, with him saying that she was just his friend, she ignored her feelings and decided friends would be enough. But then Matt came up with the crazy idea to become fake boyfriend and girlfriend so he can get the attention of the girl who he had a crush on.

Lisa didn't want to at first but she thought it might help her get the attention of the new guy at school, so she went along with it. Besides what could go wrong? She's already had her feelings hurt by Matt once before so now she knows to harden her heart from him. Just when things are going her way Matt throws a curveball and says that he wants to date her for real...

Now Lisa has to decide what she really wants before everything falls apart around her...

I love Chris Cannon's dragon series, so I was really excited to get my hands on this book as in e Arc. Sadly it wasn't my favorite because I got annoyed with the characters too often throughout the book. They couldn't make up their minds, they were very flighty, and they kept repeating themselves over and over and over but then unexpectedly taking a 360 turn the other direction. There was a lot of uncertainty throughout the novel. And overall it just showed how humans can't make their decision one way or the other. I guess that means it was realistic but it was too much repetition for my liking.

I'm glad I got a chance to read this and I'm sure that I'll pick up another one of Cannon's novels in the future. I'm sure other readers will enjoy this story when it's released though!

Review: Wings of Fate by G. Bailey

Wings of Fate by G. Bailey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This novel is filled with so much drama and new information! New characters show up (which i have a feeling they have their own book series?!?) and older characters have secrets that are revealed. My heart broke for Isola and Elias... Im very curious how that is going to be resolved.

I believe the ending of this series is going to be action packed and so full of information that i am going to need another book full of an explaination.

I am definitely going to be recommending this series and author to all of my reader friends!

Since this is the 3rd book in the series I'm going to skip the synopsis of the novel and jump right into my thoughts about this individual book.

This is probably the slowest book in the series so far. I wasn't as in love with it as the previous 2 novels for a few reasons.

1. it just went slow which usually happens with the middle book in a series. I'm not mad about this but im making it over the hump.

2. Isola needs to get her shit figured out. She was all over the place in this book and it kinda pissed me off to be honest.

3. The Boys. I love the boys but this book they kinda annoyed me, not gonna lie. They were either diving head first into something or trying to run the other way. They weren't my normal sexy irresistible guys which was sad.

I'm very excited to see what comes next - especially with that CLIFFHANGER ENDING!!!! Thank goodness i have the whole series and I'm not suffering right now. Otherwise there would be hell to pay... lol

So far really enjoying the series and looking forward to more :)

Review: Wings of Fire by G. Bailey

Wings of Fire by G. Bailey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Isola gets I rude awakening when her supposed friend Melody gives her back her memories and realizes that her three dragon guards don't remember her on Earth. Now Isola needs to find a way to make all three of them remember her so she can go back to her home and take control of her thrown and her people.

But the longer is Isola is around Elias, Dagan and Korbin, the more she is risking her heart in their heart and essentially their dragon. Isola is not sure how to make them remember but she may be dooming everyone in the process...

O! M! G! This book was amazing! A perfect sequel from the 1st novel! Just as much tension and adventure and excitement. I loved that the boys had no memory of Isola so they were persuing her hardcore. No one is strong enough to resist them when they are on a mission!

I'm so glad i found this series and it has definitely become an all time favorite. And G. Bailey is becoming a must have author for me to snatch up all of her books. I see a hole in my bank account now because of her :)

A definite must read series and author! Go down the rabbit hole today! :D

Review: Wings of Ice by G. Bailey

Wings of Ice by G. Bailey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I received this free eARC novel from NetGalley. This is my honest review.

Isola is the Ice Dragon Princess. The only problem is that she hasn't been in her realm for many years - since her mother died. Her father sent her to Earth to live with humans and her mate, Jace, until it was time for her to take the throne after the Fire Dragon Rebellion was overwith.

But when Jace was brutally murdered, Isola was thrust back into her homeland, where all of the students hate her. I mean, almost everyone's family has been affected by her father and his dragon guard harming dragons that were part of the plot to kill his beloved wife.

And with Isola being targeted by the Fire Dragon Rebellion, her uncle (and ruler of her school) gave Isola her own dragon guard of fellow students: Elias, Korbin, Dagan and Thorne. All of which have their own reason to hate her, but have to suck it up now that they are her dragon guard.

But the more the 5 of them are together, the more that anger becomes attraction. Which CANNOT happen, because of a Ice Dragon falls in love with a Dragon Guard, the curse will be broken and they will cease to be dragons.

As the rebellion gets closer and closer to Isola, she finds that she is running out of time to learn her heritage and her future. All she knows is that she is not a typical dragon in the scheme of things...

Ahhh!!!! I LOVED THIS BOOK!! Sure, there were flaws, but I seriously loved this story and the guys are so swoon worthy, and Isola is so tough. I think that the world building could have been better and more background of the new world we are in would have been nice, but I was able to follow along well for the most part. And for some reason I kept getting all of the guys mixed up with one another, but it didn't take away from the fact that most are bad boys and they are craving a piece of Isola, even though they know that is not going to happen.

And I knew, I KNEW that if I started this book, I was going to need more because there is a CLIFFHANGER!!! Gah, those things get me every time... :/ So, yeah, I've already went and purchased the 2nd book, and will probably do the same for the entire 5 book series.

I'm so glad I got a chance to read this book, and I will definitely be talking up these amazing dragon characters :)
