Half Blood


okay so i'm having a hard time keeping up since my order from book depository came in and i got adobe ereader so i now have about 20 reviews but i will try and keep up with them all. anyways one of the books i have just been reading and still flabbergasted that it was that good was Half-Blood by Jennifer L Armentrout.
Jennifer at the moment is writing two series and i hope to read this series and the other one very soon.
Half Blood is all about the kin named Hematoi which is another way of saying descendants of the gods and goddesses. now Alex went to the convenant that had hematoi and half blood (the not so fortunate of this kin). alex is a half blood but three years ago her mother whisked her away from the convenant in the dusk of night praying that she was protecting alex. Alex and her mother moved around a lot and learnt to blend in with the humans. but it was never going to be paradise for Alex and her mother one night, Daimons found her  and her mother. Alex fought but in the  end the Daimons drained her mother and so she was sent back to her uncle and step father wishing she was never there because she always thought that they never cared. Her uncle was going to send her to be a servant in her step fathers home up until her rescuer Aiden says he can train her up to the standards of the others. after that it all takes off. The first thing she does is pull the hair of her old arch nemesis Lea. after that it really is all drama. she meets the apollyon, she finds out her mother is a daimon and if i told you the rest you wouldn't read it so get out there and find it.

Half blood was full of originality, humor, magic, love and adventure everything some one could want in a book

Shut Out Review


this book i have waited a long time for and now it has arrived on my doorstep and within three hours i have finished it. YES!! new record! anyways Shut Out is by Kody Keplinger an author notoriously known for rewriting some really boring classics (sorry if you like classics) and putting a romantic funny twist on them for instance in shut out Kody has rewritten Lysteria a classic about women having a sex strike to stop a war.

so in shut out, Lissa is Randy's girlfriend and she is sick of coming second to a team of soccer players so she gets all the football girlfriends and her best friend (happens to be school slut) and the girlfriend of the soccer teams captain in one room on one table and she declares a sex strike. This particular sex strike included no sex, no hand jobs, no bj's, no kissing and anything else that the guys liked until they settled this ten year rivalry. everything changed when it actually worked and all the girls were proud of themselves. it really would have lasted longer if Lissa's daydreamer wasn't the leader of the guys side and when the guys started to play cannon ball half naked all girls didn't know what they were doing? did they give up the strike or did they continue like brave soldiers it would depend on whether or not Lissa was going to allow it.

this book is an amazing retell funny, yet heartbreaking and a great chick lit because it proves just how dumb teenage guys ( and older males) really are. if you went on a sex strike with your guy how would he act?

Endless No#4 o the Violet Eden Chapters


LOVE WILL KILL US ALL. that is the first line of the blurb but do you know what Jessica Shirvington isn't wrong about what her book might do. Love will kill us all if our hearts keep breaking. Endless is the 4th book of the Violet Eden chapter and i was hoping it would be the last and Violet and Lincoln would live happily ever after just like fairy tale angels but my predictions don't go very far when it comes to sequels of books. saying this though i am heart broken in a good way that i desperately want the second one. honestly if you are reading this some of you have to agree with me on some occasions that authors need a speed writer which is something they want the book to turn out like and that way books would come out quicker. although they might not be as good.
anyways Endless picks up from Emblaze when violets mother reappears at her house not a day old and then knocks Violet's dad out. so as we continue Eden and Lincoln go to New York back to the academy where Zoe and Spence come from to have violet get officially realized as a Grigori  along the way violet experiences a new profound feeling called jealousy as her father starts to let her mother back in. so when violet is denied of true Grigori powers and then phoenix turns up, everything sort of looks like custard to her and she cant see the bright side of things. but the real reason she went to New York was to defeat Lilith once and for all but will she be able to do it as well as save all the future Grigori angels who are still children without exposing anything well you will just have to wait and see.

Remember start at the beginning so you fall in love and join the heartbreak train or maybe you are already on it!
