Review: Eleanor and Grey by Brittainy C. Cherry

Eleanor & Grey, an all-new beautiful and emotional standalone from Brittainy C. Cherry is available now! Greyson East left his mark on me. As the young girl who first fell for him, I didn’t know much about life. I did know about his smiles, though, and his laughs, and the strange way my stomach flipped when he was near. Life was perfect…until it wasn’t, and when we were forced to go our separate ways, I held on to our memories, let go of my first crush, and wished for the day I’d find him again. When my wish came true, it was nothing like I imagined. I couldn’t have known when I took the nanny position that it would be his children I looked after, that my new boss would be that boy I used to know, that boy who was now a man—a cold, lonely, detached man. The smile and laugh I had loved so much were gone, now distant memories. Every part of him was covered in a fresh pain. When he realized who I was, he made me promise to do my job and my job only. He made me promise not to try to ge...

He's a game she never intended to play.
And she's the game changer he never knew he needed.
The Perfect Game tells the story of college juniors, Cassie Andrews & Jack Carter. When Cassie meets rising baseball hopeful Jack, she is determined to steer clear of him and his typical cocky attitude. But Jack has other things on his mind... like getting Cassie to give him the time of day.

They're both damaged, filled with mistrust and guarded before they find one another (and themselves) in this emotional journey about love and forgiveness. Strap yourselves for a ride that will not only break your heart, but put it back together.

Sometimes life gets ugly before it gets beautiful...
I'm currently wearing a Jack Carter shirt, no I'm not, maybe I am, but really. I'm not. Really. But, I kind of want one. Maybe this one. And, if I get that I'd have to get this. I'm a little obsessed, but it's ok. I think. Don't tell my husband, he thinks Jack Carter is from Titanic and we'll just let him think that because I already have too many fictional boyfriends (he might think I'm a little crazy).  :)

The Perfect Game was, I know I'm so cheesy, but PERFECT to me. In all of its unperfected glory. It's an issue filled book, a mistake filled book, a second chances book, and for me it was perfection. I loved it. I want a ton of copies of this book so that I can hand them out on the streets to random people and just be like, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Ok. So maybe it won't (but maybe it freaking will), it really is a terrific read! I'm getting way out of hand here folks, this book did that too me. I'm smiling like a mad person writing all this up, this book, I'll tell you what.

Reading it I was reminded of the things I loved from Jamie McGuire's Beautiful Disaster, it has a similar feel (for me anyway) which was AWESOME! Fans of Jamie's are sure to love Miss Sterling (if you all don't already). But, it's not Beautiful Disaster, it's The Perfect Game and while it is about an arrogant jerk who we all fall in love with, this jerk is a very different kind, still pretty drool worthy though (if you like that sort of thing, i totally do).

J. Sterling broke my freaking heart, stepped on it, then handed it back to me with a bandaid on it. Yes, yes she did. I loved the ride though, it was pretty magical. And, that turn of events. Oh Jack... I kind of want to beat him with a baseball bat, but boys will be boys right. Well done.

It's a whirlwind romance filled with ups and a lot of downs. It's something fierce, and I was hanging onto every single word skipping ahead and going backwards to digest it all. I loved it, a lot. And, J. Sterling is pure awesomeness. If you haven't figured it out by now I'm a huge fan (and groupie), and I really think all of you will be too once you buy and devour this read.

I will never look at quarters the same again. Or watch a baseball game in the same light. So, this book kind of changed my life. TPG made me laugh my butt off and seconds later almost break my iPad in frustration. It is epic greatness and J. is the QUEEN.

I'm done now. Still smiling. And, done. Not done promoting though, you guys will be seeing me tweet and FB this book UP! But, I'm done bragging about how much I enjoyed this read because you need to just read it for yourself and if you have read it I'm sure you agree.

The House of Hades by Rick Riodian (The Heroes of Olympus #4) (audio)

Annabeth and  Percy are stuck in Tartarus, making their way to the Doors of Death. Meanwhile, the rest of the group are going to find the doors in the mortal world to save them. I always enjoy the Olympus books even if the action can be predictable. Predictable is fine as long as it isn't formulaic. And if the characters are good, then predictable is less predictable and more comfortable. Because we've been with Annabeth and Percy through one series and now partway through another we know how they will react to situations with Annabeth trying to talk her way out and Percy trying to fight his way out. So it's easy to see that they are going to get out of Tartarus using their skills. On the other side of the Doors are the rest of  the demigods who are making their way to mortal side in order to rescue Annabeth and Percy and then close them on their side therefore making Gaia unable to summon more monsters and making her weaker. I feel like we get more of Leo and Hazel than an...

Review: Die For You by Amy Fellner Dominy

Review: Ah, teenage love. The intensity, the newness, the obsessive way it takes over your life. This powerful and chilling tale of love gone wrong will haunt you for weeks to come after you close the cover. What starts as a sweet romance slowly, horrifyingly turns bad when Emma and Dillon collide. Watching Dillon slowly become darker and more obsessive, more abusive is horrifying, but Amy Fellner Dominy does a beautiful job of show how organic and natural something that seems so right can twist into something so, so wrong. DIE FOR YOU is that book you want teens to read. You want them to see how easy it is to be blinded by the stars in your eyes. 1 in 11 students report being physically harmed by their date ( KidsHealth.org ). This isn't a problem that's going away, but it is one that needs to be discussed more. This was my first book by Amy Fellner Dominy and it won't be my last. I love the way she tells a story, letting the characters carry the bulk of the book and keepi...
