Review: Knight Angels: Book of Love by Abra Ebner

Title: Knight Angels: Book of Love
Author: Abra Ebner

Published: April 26th, 2010
Pages: 367
Rating: 4 flowers
Summary:
New characters, New world, but old enemies. Emily struggles to ignore a new friend with emotions that temp her, Wes delves deeper into his past and family while finding friendship isn't reserved for the human race alone, Jane finds out her dear Max isn't what he seems, Gregs friendships cost him more than he expected, and Max forgets that the truth is best. But then again, someone always has to be the liar... Emotional baggage, begrudged enemies, and the bitterness that comes when the honeymoon of their friendship fades... Will the love survive, or as it all just a game?





My Thoughts:


KNIGHT ANGELS: BOOK OF LOVE is a promising book told in multiple point of views about guardian angels, true love, hope and death.

I have never read a book that was written in more than two point of views so when I received this book I didn't know what to expect other than it might end up being confusing at times. I can proudly say I was wrong on all counts. The multiple point of views did the story justice. I couldn't see it written any different. It let us get to know each of the characters personally but we are introduced mainly to Jane, Max, Emily, Wes and Greg.

KNIGHT ANGELS first introduces us to Jane and Emily. Sister who are the complete opposite but have one thing in common, they both have strange abilitlies. Jane can see flashes of how people will die by just looking at them and Emily can read peoples minds and emotions. Wes is the boy next door and one of Jane's best friends, who unkowingly at first, has a secrect gift of his own. Max *insert long sigh here* is the new boy in town who has captured Jane's attention. Little does know but Max is her guardian angel. Then there is Greg, Max's evil twin brother.
Each of the characters have an interesting story to tell and they take you on a fun ride.

My only real complaints are that some words were missing while some were mispelled. It got a little confusing to read but I still knew what the words were suppose to be.

Overall, I think it's hard not to give too much away about the plot so I won't say much, but KNIGHT ANGELS is definetly a good book to read if you like a good Angel book!

Review: Intrinsical by Lani Woodland

Title: Intrinsical
Author: Lani Woodland

Published: August 20th, 2010
Pages: 298
Rating: 5 flowers
Summary:
Sixteen-year-old Yara Silva has always known that ghosts walk alongside the living. Her grandma, like the other females in her family, is a Waker, someone who can see and communicate with ghosts. Yara grew up watching her grandmother taunted and scorned for this unusual ability and doesn't want that to be her future. She has been dreading the day when she too would see ghosts, and is relieved that the usually dominant Waker gene seems to have skipped her, letting her live a normal teenage life. However, all that changes for Yara on her first day at her elite boarding school when she discovers the gene was only lying dormant. She witnesses a dark mist attack Brent, a handsome fellow student, and rushes to his rescue. Her act of heroism draws the mist's attention, and the dark spirit begins stalking her. Yara finds herself entrenched in a sixty-year-old curse that haunts the school, threatening not only her life, but the lives of her closest friends as well. Yara soon realizes that the past she was trying to put behind her isn't going to go quietly.







My Thoughts:


INTRINSICAL is a fast-paced roller coaster that leaves readers eagerly turning the pages.

Two words, beautiful and haunting. As soon as I got this book, I began reading it and became hooked from the very first chapter. Lani Woodlands doesn't hold anything back, she drives straight into the action of the story. If I was standing up, it would literally have me on the tips of my toes with all the twists and turns. It kept me thinking and guessing, it defintely wasn't a predictable story. Which is a good thing!

The writing is absolutely beautiful and detailed. Lani Woodland knows her imagery! The plot itself is one of the best ones I have personally ever read. I love love LOVE ghost stories, there are not enough in YA.

Let's talk about the cover for a second. WOW. Isn't it stunning? I think it fits perfectly for the story, it's both beautiful and haunting.

Overall, I highly recommend INTRINSICAL to everyone! Those looking for a promising paranormal read, go and get it right now! I am definitely looking forward to more of Lani Woodland's writings!

Jumpstart the World Tour - Character Interview (Elle) & Giveaway

For the eighth stop of Catherine Ryan Hyde's book tour for Jumpstart The World, I got to interview the main character Elle! I absolutely love her, such a strong girl.

Catherine Ryan Hyde's new book Jumpstart the World came out October 12th. Other titles by Catherine include Pay It Forward, Becoming Chloe and The Day I Killed James, and more. Jumpstart the World is Catherine's 14th published novel! Don't forget to check below for your chance to win a copy of Jumpstart the World.

In Jumpstart the World, Frank tells Elle, “The world doesn’t always play by its own rules.” He says we all agree that there should be equality for everyone. But of course there isn’t. And we just let it slide. He says, “That’s why there’s such a thing as activism. Sometimes you have to jumpstart the world just to get it to be what even the world admits it should be.”

For 5 ways you can "Jumpstart the World" check out Catherine's blog post
__________________________________________________

Character Interview - Elle


1). For everyone who hasn’t had the chance to read Jumpstart the World, can you tell us a little about yourself?

Sure. My name is Elle. I just turned 16. And I live alone. Weird, I know. My mother pays the rent, but still. She moved me into my own apartment because of “The Donald.” Her idiotic new boyfriend. He seems to think he didn’t sign on to getting a teenager in “the package deal.” Like he’s buying my mom on the stock exchange or something. But you know what? It’s bullshit. I didn’t really even get on his nerves at home, because I hate him, so I stayed in my room with the door closed. It’s a…thing with him. I don’t know what kind of thing to call it. Like he has to win. So he said to my mom, “Choose. Her or me?” So guess who she chose? I know. It’s really sick.

In some ways it’s okay, though, because I’m not completely alone. I have some friends at the new school, Shane and Wilbur and The Bobs. They’re gay, and I’m not. Not that I care. It’s not a big deal. I just figure everybody thinks I’m gay now, too. But they did anyway, so…whatever.

And my best friend is Frank. He’s sort of more than a best friend, in a way. I mean, not really he’s not, but he is to me. He’s a lot older. And he lives with Molly, who’s also my friend. But I love him. I just do. He’s a trans man. That took a little getting used to on my part. Not because I have a problem with transgender. Because of my loving him the way I do. But I got over it. And I still love him. I think when you meet him, you’ll get why.


2) How would you describe your relationship with your mother?

(Strangled noise in throat.) That’s a hard one. That’s hard to know even where to begin. First of all, she doesn’t listen to me. At all. And she doesn’t see me. She looks at me. But I can tell she doesn’t see me, because she thinks I’m just like her. I’m nothing like her!

And I just can’t make her see about Donald. Like that cruise he decided to take her on. Big happy surprise! Right on my birthday! How obvious does he have to be before she gets it that it’s like a game with him, winning out over me?

And then, here I am living on my own like a grownup, and then she comes barging in now and then acting like she’s my mother and I have to listen. You can’t have it both ways. You’re either the mother or you’re not.

Crap. I probably never should have gotten started on that. Sorry.


3) What kind of music do you like to listen to? Do you have a favorite band?

My absolute favorite is Janis Joplin, which people think is stupid, because she died decades before I was born. But she’s so intense. Her voice is like…it’s like she doesn’t sing the lyrics, she screams them, and I can hear a piece of myself in those screams. When I listen to her, even if I don’t sing along, I feel like I’ve had a good screaming session myself. I feel emptied out. In a good way. It feels good.


4) For someone so young living by themselves, do you think it has made you grow up, emotionally?

I guess I thought I was all grown up, emotionally. But, looking back over the past few months, I see more about things. I don’t think living alone all by itself would have done it. I could have just curled in on myself more. I think it was Frank. And Shane, and Wilbur, and The Bobs. But mostly Frank. Knowing Frank grew me up a lot. (Wilbur helped, too. I love Wilbur.)


5) If you had to choose someone to play your role, if your story were a movie, who would it be?

Oh. Damn. I wish Clare Danes wasn’t too old now. If Clare Danes could somehow magically be the age she was in My So-Called Life…I don’t know, like a time machine or something…that would be perfect.


6) Can you tell us some surprising things no one would know just by looking at you?

That I’m scared. Most of the time. I act like I’m not, and I say I’m not. But I totally am. Sometimes I think I’m pulling it off and other times I think people see right through me. Also that I really do like to have people around, if they’re the right people. You know. A little company. I act like I don’t. But I think that’s just because of all those wrong people. But I get lonely, just like everybody. And no matter what I say, I really need friends. I guess we all do. Right?

Early mini-Review: Through Her Eyes by Jennifer Archer

Title: Through Her Eyes
Author: Jennifer Archer

Published:
April 5th, 2010

Pages: 383 (ARC)
Rating: 5 flowers
Blurb:
Every ghost has a story to tell.

The last place Tansy Piper wants to be is stuck in Cedar Canyon, Texas, in the middle of nowhere, with a bunch of small-town kids. But when her mother decides to move to the desolate West Texas town, Tansy has no choice but to go along. Once there, Tansy is immediately drawn to the turret of their rickety old house, a place she soon learns has a disturbing history. But its the strange artifacts she finds in the cellar--a pocket watch, a journal of poetry, and a tiny crystal--that have the most chilling impact on her.

Tansy soon finds that through the lens of her camera, she can become part of a surreal black-and-white world where her life is intertwined with that of mysterious, troubled Henry, who lived in the same house and died decades earlier. It seems their lives are linked by fate and the artifacts she found, but as Tansy begins spending more and more time in the past, her present world starts to fade away. Tansy must untangle herself from Henry's dangerous reality-- before she loses touch with her own life forever.




My Thoughts:
THROUGH HER EYES is a captivating story that mixes paranormal and contemporary aspects together creating a truly unique premise.

On Goodreads it says that the book will come out in hardcover and is 240 pages. But I really hope that is a mistake since the ARC is exactly 383. I can't imagine the story being a page less!

The Prologue is amazing enough to capture the readers attention, it sure got mine! The characters are well-written and realistic. I found myself really relating to Tansy in different ways. Her family moves around a lot so she never stays in one place for more than a year.
The setting itself was spot on. I have lived in the Texas Panhandle for most of my life so Jennifer Archer definitely does an awesome job when it comes to introducing the setting to her readers.

Jennifer Archer's writing is absolutely beautiful. I found myself immersed in the story because of the very detailed writing. It is almost poetic. The plot was another thing I loved and the way that Archer switches to the different time period (Henry's) is brilliant. I don't want to give too much away since the book doesn't comes out for another 6 months but I will say that you definitely do not want to miss out on this book or more from Jennifer! Read it as soon as you can!

This is Jennifer Archer's first young adult novel but she has previously published more than 10 adult books.

(Be looking out for my full review closer to release date!)

________________________________________________



Story 1, part 5 - written by Jennifer Archer

“Anna! You’re early,” he whispered. Jeremy dug his fingernails into the palms of his hands, but the pain didn’t squelch his desire for the taste of the nectar that pulsed through her veins. “How long have you been waiting?”

“Not long. Five minutes at the most. I wasn’t sure you’d come.”
He gazed down into her wide, green eyes – so innocent, so pure, so trusting. Why couldn’t she understand that danger lurked in the shadows? Loving him made her all the more vulnerable to his prowling, ravenous brethren, yet she refused to succumb to their threat. Or his.
It had been Anna’s request that they meet here, at the third headstone on the second row, an hour before dawn. Jeremy had panicked when her message arrived. He left early, intent on arriving before her, intent on making certain no others had learned of their planned rendezvous and waited to steal Anna’s light before he could stop them.
Jeremy pulled her to him and buried his face in her silken hair. He breathed in her orchid scent, aching to taste her. “I came only to tell you goodbye. I’m leaving the city in the morning.”

Leaving you -- the only light I love, he thought. Dooming myself to complete and utter darkness to save you . . . to save the only remaining shred of my dignity.

She pulled back, the moonlight illuminating her pale porcelain skin and the startled flash of her eyes. “Leaving? But, why?”
“Because you won’t listen to my warnings,” he whispered. “And I’m not certain how long I can resist you.”
Anna’s face softened as she cupped his cheek in her palm. “I’m not afraid of you, Jeremy.”
“That’s what worries me,” he said in a strangled voice. Hating himself, he turned away, unable to hold her gaze. “I’m of the devil. I’ll only end up hurting you if I stay . . .”
“No.” Her fingers warmed his icy chin as she coaxed him to look at her again. Smiling, Anna said, “I know your heart as well as my own. That’s why I asked you to meet me here – so that I can show you why I’ve no need to be afraid.”

She took his hand and led him closer to the third headstone. It was larger than the others and adorned by an ornate cross overgrown with tangled, winding vines. Pausing at the base of it she said, “Look, Jeremy.”

He followed her gaze to the inscription on the crumbling headstone, and his breath caught.
