Review: Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

Image
Review: OMG!!! This is the best book EVER. I am surprised I didnt read it earlier! My emotions during the whole book was up and down, and Etienne...... (mouth-watering) Perkins did an excellent job with this novel set in Paris, France. I could picture the way Paris looked by the way Perkins describe it, if I was really there! The whole novel was brilliant, the connection between Etienne and Anna from beginning to end showed how much they are soul mates. They had ups and downs during the whole novel but, what best friends wouldn't and their cute nicknames. I just fell in love with this whole book. The last part of the novel.......I just loved the whole scene... Overall, reading this novel put me a good mood, with romantics and just plain in love with the city of love (Paris) Anna and the French Kiss is now one of my favourites its officially in the top 10 also. If you have not read this book yet, I recommend you move it up on your TBR list, because its totally worth it! -Am

Review: Ripple by Mandy Hubbard

RIPPLE Mandy Hubbard YA PNR-Mythologic Elements Paperback; 272 pages July 21st, 2011 by Razorbill/Penguin Review: Ripple was an Amazing read. I loved the facts about Lexie abilities as a siren, which was really awesome. The whole concept of the entire novel really drew me into reading this great book:) I just loved the romance between Lexie and Cole. I was even tearing up at some parts of the novel! (due to some past reflections by Lexie) Hubbard really sets a beautiful plot to the entire story. The theory of Sirens and curses were an interest concept throughout the novel. The novel starts off with Lexie being an outcast from everybody in her school, once popular and the most beautiful amongst all the others. Things started to fall apart on her 16th birthday, until she killed the boy she loved. Stephen. This was very hard on Lexie, who strayed away from all her friends for 2 years, and continues to swim at her lake every night.  Until Cole, Stephens best friend, starts talkin

Sophie’s bound for one hell of a ride—can she get her powers back before it’s too late?
