Clean by Juno Dawson – Non spoiler review

March 21, 2019

Release date: April 5th 2018

Rating: 5/5 stars.

Amazon description: When socialite Lexi Volkov almost overdoses, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom.

She’s wrong. Rock bottom is when she’s forced into an exclusive rehab facility.

From there, the only way is up for Lexi and her fellow inmates, including the mysterious Brady.

As she faces her demons, Lexi realises love is the most powerful drug of all …

It’s a dirty business getting clean.

Addiction and redemption, love and despair. Clean will have you hooked from the first page.

The Girl Before by JP Delaney REVIEW | Hiatus over

October 5, 2018

Hi everyone. My first post back after a bigger than expected hiatus from my blog…but something I felt like I needed. I felt unhappy with my content and how I was organizing my reviewing. But now I’m back, hopefully for good!

Today I’m going to be talking about The Girl Before by JP Delaney and the turning point which lead to me getting more into the thriller genre.

This is one of those books that I’d seen on display in various bookshops for quite some time. So a couple of months back I decided to pick it up on a whim. Previous to this I’d only read maybe 5 thrillers? I’m someone who gets scared quite easily, so based off that in the past I think I’d just written off thrillers as a genre that maybe wasn’t for me. But maybe it’s about finding that perfect sub-genre, where it doesn’t get too full on ‘scary’…

Enter the world of One Folgate Street and discover perfection . . . but can you pay the price?

Jane stumbles on the rental opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to live in a beautiful ultra-minimalist house designed by an enigmatic architect, on condition she abides by a long list of exacting rules. After moving in, she discovers that a previous tenant, Emma, met a mysterious death there – and starts to wonder if her own story will be a re-run of the girl before

As twist after twist catches the reader off guard, Emma’s past and Jane’s present become inexorably entwined in this tense, page-turning portrayal of psychological obsession.

GAVE: 4/5 stars

Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli Review

May 14, 2018

My review & thoughts on Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli (contains minor spoilers from Simon vs)

Description:

When it comes to drumming, Leah Burke is usually on beat– but real life isn’t always so rhythmic. The only child of a single mum, and her life is less privileged than her friends.

Her mum knows she’s bisexual, but Leah hasn’t mustered the courage to tell her friends. Not even her openly gay BFF, Simon. Prom and college are on the horizon, and tensions are running high. Can Leah still strike the right note, when the people she loves are fighting? And how can she cope knowing that she might love one of her friends more than she ever intended?

Amazon | Waterstones | Goodreads

Justyce McAllister is top of his class and set for the Ivy League – but none of that matters to the police officer who just put him in handcuffs. And despite leaving his rough neighbourhood behind, he can’t escape the scorn of his former peers or the ridicule of his new classmates.

Justyce looks to the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for answers. But do they hold up anymore? He starts a journal to Dr. King to find out.

Then comes the day Justyce goes driving with his best friend, Manny, windows rolled down, music turned up – way up, sparking the fury of a white off-duty police officer beside them. Words fly. Shots are fired. Justyce and Manny are caught in the crosshairs. In the media fallout, it’s Justyce who is under attack.
