Ashes to Ashes by Jenny Han & Siobhan Vivian (Review #89)

WARNING: SPOILER ALERT: IF YOU HAVE NOT GOTTEN THIS FAR IN THE BURN FOR BURN SERIES, STOP NOW. DO NOT READ. THIS IS BOOK 3. FOR THE REVIEW OF BOOK 1, CHECK OUT BURN FOR BURN AND FOR BOOK 2, CHECK OUT FIRE WITH FIRE!

"Lillia, Kat, and Mary. They only meant to right some wrongs.

It was about getting even. Burn for Burn. But the fire they lit kept raging... Reeve ended up hurt, and Rennie ended up dead. Everything will turn to ash if they don't stop what they started. Do they even want to? Secrets drew Lillia, Kat, and Mary together. The truth might tear them apart."

Review:
Wow. That was extremely anticlimactic. I have been praising this series with its neck-wringing plot twists and I anxiously awaited this book. When I finished it, disappointed is an understatement. I was looking for the big bang to end this series with, but it was just a little fizzle, like a defective firecracker. I really don't have words for how disappointed I was.

Want more Jenny Han Books? Check out her solo series, Summer! For book 1, check out The Summer I Turned Pretty. For book 2, check out It's Not Summer Without You, and for book 3, check out We'll Always Have Summer!

Girl, Stolen by April Henry (Review #1)

Hi. I'm Samantha and I hope you enjoy my first Book Review and the many more reviews to come. Thank You for stopping by! Synopsis: "Sixteen-year-old Cheyenne Wilder is sleeping in the back of the car while her stepmom fills her prescription. Before Cheyenne realizes what's happening, someone is stealing the car - with her inside! Griffin hadn't meant to kidnap Cheyenne; all he planned to do was take the car. But once Griffin's dad finds out that Cheyenne's father is the president of a powerful cooperation, everything changes - now there's a reason to keep her. How will Cheyenne survive this nightmare? She's not only sick - she's BLIND!" Review: This book was a lot better than I expected. It showed both points of view of the two main characters and the villain comes from an unexpected direction. I really loved stepping into the eyes of a blind person. Going through the struggles Cheyenne had to go through and all under extreme circumstance...

The Harpy by Megan Hunter (Review #245)

“Lucy Lives with her husband, Jake and their two boys. Her life is devoted to her children, her days, mapped out by their finally tune routine. Until a man calls one afternoon with a shattering message. His wife has been having an affair with Lucy’s husband. He thought she should know. Lucy is distraught. She decides to stay with Jake, if only for their children sake, but in order to even the score, they agreed that she will hurt him three times. Jake Will not know when the hurt is coming, or what form it will take. And so begins a delicate game of crime and punishment, from which there is no return…” Review: “Deeply unsettling” author Daisy Johnson said of this book, and honestly I think that’s the perfect description. For me though this wasn’t necessarily horror, and fantasy is a stretch at best, but let’s backtrack a bit. This story was about grief. Lucy is grieving and trying to heal from a monumental wound. She by no means is a pillar of a healthy psyche, but even in her worst mom...
