Book Review:

Good but Sophia one dumb chick
•••••I mention some spoilers in this review, and couldn’t help but speak my mind**•••••
Sophie is smh… it’s so many women that’s like her…. & some women/girls want a guy like Mark… I wanted to smack her silly. Reading this book. After reading the other book with her friend Olivia… have me thinking Mark is/was stupid… for even giving her another chance… because once she saw that Garrett was horrible and gotten caught a second time she felt some way. Then going to be upset when Mark started dating that girl Jenna… I didn’t blame Mark.

For one; yes he on the rebound, but Sophia gutted him; I tried saying hurt him with ed at the end but autocorrect kept saying gutted. But like I said she hurt him so bad not once; but twice more, than two times because she kept ignoring his text messages… because she assumes she wanted Garrett. What her idiot self didn’t realize was maybe Whitney was more than likely pretending and also Garrett probably only wanted to make her jealous. You could tell her (Sophia) didn’t care about what Benji her (Sophia) brother thought of him (Garrett) hitting on his sister.
But what I can agree on; is when it came to Garrett, he stated Sophia kept coming on to him and flirting which was true. I blame them both because for one she knew he was a grown ass man and he knew she was only 16 turning 17… she was underage, and he was like twenty-one… he didn’t care. Mark should’ve punched him (Garrett) too, hell right after Benji punches him (Garrett). You could tell Garrett knew what he was doing…. when it came to Benji sister… like boy bye you could’ve said NO… plus; I die of laughter when she realize Garrett kisses suck 😂😂😂 I was like she should’ve stuck with Mark the “teenager” you kept dissing for a “grown man” aka “sloppy kisser”…. It was priceless. She felt so stupid after what happened. I was like welp Livi tried to tell your butt; even wack ass Jessie…. gosh I could tell he was horrible in this book too but more so in the book with Livi… but anyways I’m off topic…
What I do want to know …. was… did Mark taken Sophia back because the one with Livi they were talking and stuff and getting all close I wanted to know more like the book one (w/Livi & Chase) did versus this one. Mark was a good guy; often more likely we all need guys like him. I be telling people (I know this is fiction) that women cheat too; what I realize both Livi and Sophia cheated on two of the guys who actually cared about them and ONLY felt stupid once they were caught. I highly doubt either of them would’ve felt bad if they didn’t get caught. But what was in my head when Garrett was kissing Sophia I kept thinking he was going to rape her or something by how he was acting while kissing her. But in the end, I was happy he left… I can’t say it was a happy ending in this book, but it was good though… I should’ve read this before the “Stand-In Boyfriend” but oh well!

 

Book Description:

Sophie Steele is looking forward to summer break: no school, no responsibilities, hanging out with her best friend, Livy, and the boy she’s been casually dating for the last couple of months. But, when her brother’s gorgeous friend moves in with them while he completes a summer internship, her goal changes. Suddenly the only thing she wants this summer is him. 

She wants him even more when her brother warns her off him, and even more than that when Livy tells her it’s a bad idea. Then when he starts dating one of her brother’s friends? Well, that makes him irresistible. 

Because that’s the thing about Sophie—she’s always wanted what she can’t have. 

… 

This is a 32,000 word novella to introduce the characters of the Grove Valley High Series.

The Stand-In Boyfriend (Grove Valley High #1) by Emma Doherty

Suppose to be writing 6-8 pages paper but ….. I just want to read 😂💯👌🏽 “The Stand-In Boyfriend” … let’s hope this book is good. 🤸🏼‍♂️

Book Review:

Fake boyfriend = real boyfriend

•••Spoilers throughout this review••••
Lord the girl Livi aka Olivia I wanted to smack her so many times it wasn’t even funny. Like omg; her obsession with her best friend was over the top and ridiculous like Jheeze… All you see was Jessie this Jessie that. Jessie; Jessie, Jessssiee a thousand times like good lord. & I knew in my mind that Chase liked Olivia that’s why he did the fake boyfriend thing with her because he knew that was the only option he had to get to her… which I can agree on because lord Livi was in LOVE with Jessie so hard! Every single thing blinded her… plus; she was dumb a lot of times especially when Jessie was using her and taking advantage of her and being disrespectful to her and especially when Charlotte wait that isn’t her name I think it was Courtney if not whatever I didn’t like her anyway.
But anywho; Jessie was just a horrible person, but when Chase got loud with her she was butt *** hurt when he mentions her father … I was like this girl here…smh then felt some type of way when she gotten caught by Chase when she was kissing Jessie not once did she ever tell him Jessie kissed her at the game! But in my mind, I think Chase seen that part because he tends to watch her a lot! I wanted her peanut brain to realize that Chase was never pretending, but it never happens until Chase didn’t want to deal with her dumb self anymore. I was like lord girl…… & when Chase told her that he was faking boy she was but hurt I was like oh well you freaking idiot…. you wanted Jessie; Jessie Jessie way you mad for… like Gosh! She was annoying! Chase was way better, and he was someone that Jessie was not! Plus Chase knew how horrible Jessie treated her. Not only that I figure out he didn’t like him due to the fact of how he treated Olivia… Chase definitely didn’t like Jessie… but Jessie started hating Chase once Livi wasn’t there for his beck and call. I still said that’s why he so butted her; but when someone else came in the picture that when Jessie dumb self-thought he could go in and take Olivia way. I still said that he set that kissing in his bedroom up so that Chase can find out. Plus; in the end, I’m glad that Chase and Livi kissed and made up and that Abigail apologizes to both Livi and her friend Hallie…

Dear Adam (The Pen Pal Romance Series) by Kelsie Stelting

I thought this book was going to be wack but it actually wasn’t.

Book Review:

Pen Pal use to be a thing; that I still think is great.

*Spoilers throughout this review;***••••
I can’t get over Emerick niece no cousin reading that romance book with the shirtless dude on the front; and she’s only ten … I don’t know why I find it hilarious. But gah 😂😂😂 it reminds me of my niece trying to read books she knows she shouldn’t be reading; lol!

I died laughing when Emerick said “I glanced back at Janie, her nose already buried in some book with a shirtless man on the cover. She was only ten. What the hell did she want to do with a book like that?” 😂😂 I was thinking the same thing like what the what… her mom even knew she was reading it too. I’m dead weak!
Plus; I was glad when Nora got rid of Trey; he was just horrible. I was also glad he stopped coming around and both her parents realize how awful he was. Did that terrible thing to her over a breakup that to me I felt like he only did it for “it couple” like he stated. Like ugh; Emerick aka Adam was so right for Nora as she was to him. I still felt like she could’ve apologized for what she said about him only knowing how to fix cars etc. you can never judge a book by its cover. Because the ones you think are beneath you are way better than those who are just like you. I was just glad that Nora realizes that and Emerick realize that Nora was a snob etc…. Emerick deserves that certificate he, and I like how he also helped his friend Wolf realize he could do better for himself. I didn’t realize this book was going to be good; just by looking at the cover… but this book was grade A 5-star book. I like it; I liked that no one judge him well they did because they assume he was a black kid… but what I did like was at least her family accepted him even though he was a black boy and she was a white girl. Because often parents don’t accept two different races being together.

Courtside Crush (Varsity Girlfriends #1) by Kayla Tirrell

Interesting enough book! Basketball 🏀 good!

Book Review:

Varsity Girlfriends #Book1

••••Not that many spoilers but there are some•***

So okay, I understand when you have rivals, it was the same way with my old school Brunswick vs. Greensville… but her (Charlie) brother Preston took it too far; I don’t even think that Jackson also cares too much about that rivalry at all. Plus; it only got too serious once evil pinhead Anderson did what he did to Charlie which was horrible. I wanted someone to literally beat Anderson up for what he did to Charlie not once but three times. What crazy was Preston was so stuck on the rivalry with Jackson that he didn’t even go after his sister. I was glad when she told both Jackson and Preston off during that game that they both ruin for themselves. Because it was ridiculous, but in the end, I was glad that her best friend Daria was there for her because everybody else including her brother was horrible to that girl. It was so much girl could take, but only people did was laugh at her and stuff that was bullying her… but glad in the end, I was glad her and Preston back talking, and she and Jackson got back together.

#GoodGirlBadBoy (#BestFriendsForever #3) by Yesenia Vargas

Good girls always go for the bad boys. Well, some don’t…

Book Review:

#GoodGirlBadBoy

***Spoilers here and there****
This book was good wasn’t irritated or anything. I liked Harper and Emerson story. I figured he was going to come around sooner or later. I think when you have family or grown into a family that gets into trouble or have been locked up often the kids follow their parent’s footsteps; then the younger siblings follow the siblings… I believe if it wasn’t for Harper Emerson wouldn’t have become a better person. Also; Mr. Roberts made him a better person too (well more so with that letter) before he died. Harper friends were telling her how Emerson was, but they also realize that both Harper and Emerson cared for one another, so they were there for her regardless of Emerson being there and him walking away that’s what you call true friends…. but in the end, I’m glad that Emerson went and got his girl. ❤️

Book Review:

#HateThatBoy = to love ❤️

*** Spoilers? Umm just a few!!!!****
Okay, so I enjoyed this book as well as I did the first book. Like this first book; I also read this one in two days. I love books where it doesn’t take me a long time to read it because that’s how good it be and your attention stays on the book page after page.

I know one thing; I was glad Tori didn’t care what others think of her and Noah though she didn’t want anyone to find out about them because of nationals. But in reality, people already figured it out. Not much you can hide from friends etc. plus; Gary was hating on Noah because Noah was more of a man and better person than he was to Tori…

Not only that her mom was a horrible person towards both her daughters I was glad when Tori kept telling her mom off and telling her how she felt. Because in the end, her mom realizes she was wrong and gotten help for it, and she also apologizes to her children and their father going to be home more. I always say no matter how much money someone has their family home isn’t always greater than the person who has less. But if you look at it, Noah and Tori were one and the same because both their parents and parent was horrible at some point until they learn to play nice and get their selves together. Plus I was glad that Tori finally told Krista off that chick was so bitter and jealous of Tori she tried to ruin a lot for her and the cheerleaders but still got dusted in the end because no one cares about her too much. What a waste…..

The Missing Link: Church Boyz 6 (Church Boyz Series) by H.H. Fowler

Coming off from reading book 5; then reading this description… I already know this book going to be something else. I can’t wait 🙌🏽😃. I especially want to know who Rachel going to pick ‘I swear’; I think it’s Eric yuck 🙄 not only that I’m curious about who kidnapped Tayah… & just hope Dominic doesn’t give in • to A’Moree yuck… l just hope his best friend (A’Moree brother) doesn’t have anything to do with his (Dominic) wife kidnapping… UGH… that would suck

Book Review:

This was actually a good book #gofigured

•****Ohhhh LALALA I knew this book was going to be good but let me just say I’m going to add plenty of spoilers in this review•**

I’m going to say this I already knew Rachel had a thing for Eric and was going to contact ERIC more than she did SEAN. Because even though she contacted Sean a few times, she still was contacting his brother behind everyone back, and if she wanted to fix that relationship she would’ve tried harder, she didn’t. I sure didn’t blame Sean for doing what he was doing with Kellie, but he realizes that it wasn’t right and did try to fix the relationship with Rachel, but she ignored him and went to Eric instead to Sean… humph… I didn’t feel bad for those names Sean called her because she wasn’t stupid; she knew what she was doing didn’t regret it until she was caught red-handed. But at least, in the end, Sean apologizes to Rachel for all he said to her and also him giving Eric permission to go for Rachel. Though I felt like everyone kept thinking everyone was bashing Sean for what he did but didn’t say anything to Eric and Rachel knowing they were wrong for both that KISS and SEX they had.

Not only that I was glad that Tayna was found… I figured that Black Ice (Edison) <<< I just thought it was him when that phone call was being made. Because the one that person follow Nixon and it already stated someone was working in the force for Black Ice when finding out Black Ice was Edison… but you come to think about it Black Ice wasn’t even about that freaking LIFE. Like dude went out like a straight coward by killing himself. But at least Mackey found Tayna when he found out that well more is seen A’moree getting abducted by two men. If it was for him coming to get her (Amoree nobody would’ve found Tayna), but the funny thing is A’moree being on her thotness and trying to seduce Dominic. And even I was going to say this blamed her brother Sanchez about raping her, but in reality, she seduces him when he was sleeping in the same way she did with Dominic. I’m glad Sanchez was there to stop what was bound to happen between Dominic and A’moree. A’moree If you think about it got what she deserved all that crap she was doing lead her to be abducted/kidnapped and sold to a sex slave somewhere. I feel bad that happen to her, but I bet she can’t seduce those evil men the way she did everyone because that situation she got her self it was karma for her being a con artist and manipulative got herself in a bind. But hey you do dirty you end up with something terrible happening to you.
But I’m glad in the end everyone is doing good with themselves especially Sean for what happened to him and Eric for the HIV situation he came out a FREE man with that test. I figured In book two he didn’t have it. Plus; I knew neither Paxton wasn’t going to die in the end also glad that Leroy became an actual father LJ was looking for because Leroy was hateful to everyone and I’m glad he apologized and especially to Mackey who finally got rid of his obsession with his ex-wife. But I’m still trying to figure out how Eric didn’t catch the HIV if he bangs that woman unless he used a condom because he didn’t say well admit he didn’t use it just made (did a look) because of himself being sexually active with the HIV girl.
& for A’moree, you do EVIL; evil comes back on you… But it sucks that Sean is not looking to get married to in a relationship wish it was a story on Eric and Sean plus Rachel see what happens there. But oh well… (meaning will Sean find women who love him ONLY).

Book Description:

Book 5 left readers with the question: Who really kidnapped Tayah Housten, the daughter of a prominent bishop who suddenly goes missing after the first few hours of the new year? The police are on a wild goose chase trying to find her, only to end up running into one dead end after the other. Hope seems to spark when Leroy receives an anonymous email from one of Tayah’s captors, demanding millions of dollars for her release. The catch: Leroy is to negotiate alone. No police, no family, no friends. It is a race against time to rescue his daughter. Leroy certainly has the power and the means to deliver, but will he take the bait? 

Meanwhile, Tayah’s distraught husband, Dominic Housten is fighting hard to keep his sanity intact, especially when he finds himself being questioned by the police for foul play. However, his sanity is further tested by the incomparable seductress, A’moree, who will stop at nothing to make Dominic bend to her wiles. Even if it means she capitalizes on Tayah’s disappearance and exploits the secrets between her and her brother to get the job done. With Dominic being so vulnerable, she is confident her plan will work. But will Dominic give in? 

Even in the midst of everything going on, Eric, Sean and Rachel still find themselves in a frustrating love triangle. Rachel wants to make a decision but both brothers are making it impossible for her to choose between them. Someone, however, will get hurt, because there is only one man who Rachel truly wants. What will be the last straw that will push her over the cliff towards one of the brothers? 

As the plot weaves in and out toward an unexpected twist, the Paxton family’s faith is put to the ultimate test. Lust, murder, greed, lies, betrayal – all take center stage. It begs the question: Who will be left standing when the dust settles? Join H H Fowler in this riveting final showdown between good and evil. 

Crushing on My Brothers’ Best Friend (Sweet Water High Book 2) by Julia Keanini

I thought I posted this book, didn’t realize it wasn’t on here. I’m 84% done. This is 1 out of the five books I’m reading. That I need to finish. 🥀

Book Review:

Okay

Let’s see this book was cute… let’s see will there be any spoilers once I start writing.

So okay, like I said this book was actually cute. Then the last chapter the “Epilogue” I was like ugh hurry up already I was ready to finish for some reason. But anyways I thought the story was cute. I assume that she Emmy was going to be sneaking around with Ky and her brothers wouldn’t like them sneaking behind their backs, but the whole time in the book they were giving each other googly eyes and thinking that it was one-sided when it came to them liking each other. & them ending up ignoring one another; and or dating someone else. While her best friend Tori dated her brother Elijah for a while then became friends.
But in reality they both liked each other, Ky was using Janna, in my opinion, to make Emmy jealous though he was actually using her to hide his feelings for her from her twin brothers Emmett and Elijah … when Emmett knew that Ky liked her since eighth grade. But when the football players were checking out Emmy, her brothers flip out so that push Ky back and to become distant and which made Emmy upset.

Then they went to their grandparents camping place or whatever Ky told Emmy how he felt, and she ran away then felt stupid by doing it and worrying herself to death about it. But FINALLY, in the end, Ky got the courage to ask Emmy to not only the homecoming dance but to be his girlfriend… guest what her brothers weren’t even mad why? Because they realize it wouldn’t ruin their friends as it didn’t ruin any friend with Tori and Emmy when Tori dated Emmy brother Elijah. UGH, all of that could’ve been avoided, and they could’ve started dating in like chapter 4 or 5… what a waste….. but at least the book was good though; give it that…

Book Description:

Gorgeous, charming, and funny. Ky would be any girl’s dream guy. Too bad he’s my brothers’ best friend.

But when I’m epically dumped by my first boyfriend ever, it puts me right where I hate to be–in the limelight. And suddenly, everyone in Sweet Water is alerted to my love life, especially my nosy and overprotective brothers.

I did my best to manage the attention until I discover that Ky Andrews, the guy that I’ve crushed on since elementary school and my brothers’ best friend, is also paying attention. He’s recently broken up with his girlfriend and is actually talking to me…like a girl, not a bud. Just when I think this might be the happily-ever-after I’ve dreamed of, my brothers ruin it all. Suddenly, every boy in Sweet Water won’t touch me with a ten-foot pole–including Ky.

But when I’m suddenly paired with Ky for a project in yearbook, it seems like he’s struggling to keep his distance. Now confused, I have to decide if I’m willing to take the risk and fall for Ky or protect my heart and forever remain a wallflower.

1 town. 1 high school. 12 sweet romances.

Eenie Meenie Miney Mo: Church Boyz 5 by H.H. Fowler, Karen Rodgers

I kind of forgot what actually happened in this series. I remember bits and pieces. But no way I’m going back to book 1. I’m a just continue with book 5, I’ve been trying to read this book for a while now. Never got around to it.

Book Review:

•••Spoilers, throughout this review.••••

I’ve been putting this book on the back burner for a while now even though I wanted to get into it. But never, felt like reading it. & I am glad that I’ve finally gotten to read this book to see what was going to happen next. Though; I have forgotten what the last four books talked about… but already knew that Tayah was going to get kidnapped she was just stupid as hell… thought she could protect herself knowing dang well that she couldn’t do that smh. I even though Sean was kidnapped too with her he was banging Kellie in his dad office. Like really boy; if it weren’t for you wanting some tail none of that would’ve happened to Tayah… though that security guard was an idiot smh!

Plus; Leroy, so worries about himself and his family that he doesn’t even know what is going on with Mackey. & Leroy wife Michelle knows something is going on with him too. I hope she finds out because Leroy could careless about anyone but himself. But he sure doesn’t care about his son LJ SMH! If it wasn’t for Michelle, I think that little boy wouldn’t be happy. I think the people in the red car have Tayna, but it couldn’t be Black Ice either; but who knows maybe it is Eli…. who tries to hide his identity by dressing as a woman. I hope they get Tayna back in time.
Not only that I hope that Eric doesn’t end up with HIV that would truly suck for him, but I do also think Rachel wants Eric more than she wants Sean. She can’t get mad that he kept her on the edge because how would he know if she wouldn’t go behind her back and fool around with his brother Eric again… a kiss is cheating regardless… I can’t wait to read part 6… I need to know…

The wedding is suddenly off between Sean and Rachel, which spirals into a contemptuous display of sibling rivalry and ego-bashing tactics. But with Eric’s HIV status still in limbo, it appears as if Sean will have the upper hand by default.
