Review: F*ck Love - Tarryn Fisher - January 2016 Have you ever read a book that is confusing and odd and even after you finish it, you are still left wondering what you read or the point of the story? As readers who have read Tarryn Fisher's books before, you know that they can often be mindf*ck novels and they are twisted. This book is one that I have had on my Kindle for a while and cleaning up my device, I figured to read it since this week has been a hard reading week since not a lot seemed to grab my interest. This book starts with a double date of Kit and his partner Della and Helena and Neil.  Kit and Helena are standing in line waiting for their food when Kit hands Helena a crayon, this sends her into an alternative universe where she is with Kit and they have two beautiful children. During the dream, Helena starts to feel a strong love for Kit but of course, she wakes up to realize it was just a dream. The feelings and the yearning desire for the life she had in the futur...

The Last Starling C.L. Denault Publication date: December 24th 2019 Genres: Fantasy, Horror, Paranormal, Young Adult “They’re coming.” Words of warning haunt Jayce Wakefield’s dreams. He doesn’t believe them any more than he believes in the blue-eyed raven delivering the message. It’s totally absurd. They’re just dreams. He has nothing to worry about. Or does he?

Review: Streaks of Blue - Book #1 Nikki Series - Jack Chaucer - September 2013 After reading Say Something by Jennifer Brown, I was in the mood for another school shooting type novel or something with a bit of an edgy tragedy feel to it.  I needed something to feel and connect too rather than a sexualized romance. Streaks of Blue by Jack Chaucer is another story that I have had on my kindle for years and only just gotten around to reading. This book starts off with our main female character Nikki and her best friend Candace hiking and Nikki wanting to camp out under the stars just like her current idol Cheryl Strayed from Wild which is her favorite book at the moment. During her sleep, Nikki has the craziest of dreams and is left with a few clues that she must befriend Adam Upton and stop him from doing something crazy at 12.14 pm. Nikki talks to Candace and as she does they are convinced that it means a possible school shooting as the anniversary of the Newton school shooting is ...
