<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A while ago I contacted the lovely Laura from Black and White Publishing about receiving a book for review. This was Did I Mention I Love You by Estelle Maskame, also known as DIMILY,book 1 in the trilogy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was really excited to read this as I'd seen a lot of book bloggers putting pictures up of the book,in its gorgeous packaging and I wanted to get in on the action! Laura sent me a copy of the book and I started to read it straight away! It was also signed by Estelle which was a lovely surprise to see.Laura spent ages on the packaging and making sure that it looked lovely and beautiful,and it certainly did. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm already so excited for Book 2,Did I Mention I Need You which is set to be released on 3rd September 2015,this isn't too far away and you can already pre order <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Did-Mention-Need-Dimily-Trilogy/dp/1845029852">here</a> ! Did I Mention I Miss You is out in January 2016 and i'm also super excited for this,but sad because I don't want this story to end :(</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As part of the release for DIMILY on 1st July,Laura decided to put together a blog tour and i'm super excited to be part of it! Today I am going to review DIMILY and also Estelle is going to tell everyone who her dream cast would be if the books were made into films,( which I really really hope they are!)</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px;">"<i>When sixteen-year-old Eden Munro agrees to spend the summer with her estranged father in the beachfront city of Santa Monica, California, she has no idea what she s letting herself in for. Eden's parents are divorced and have gone their separate ways, and now her father has a brand new family. For Eden, this means she's about to meet three new step-brothers. The eldest of the three is Tyler Bruce, a troubled teenager with a short temper and a huge ego. Complete polar opposites, Eden quickly finds herself thrust into a world full of new experiences as Tyler's group of friends take her under their wing. But the one thing she just can't understand is Tyler, and the more she presses to figure out the truth about him, the more she finds herself falling for the one person she shouldn't her step-brother. Throw in Tyler's clingy girlfriend and a guy who has his eyes set on Eden, and there's secrets, lies and a whole lot of drama. But how can Eden keep her feelings under control? And can she ever work out the truth about Tyler? Did I Mention I Love You is the first book in the phenomenal DIMILY trilogy, following the lives of Eden Munro and Tyler Bruce as they try to find their way in an increasingly confusing world"</i></span><br />

I feel really passionate about this book,it's truly incredible and I'm so excited for the second installment in less than two months time now! I've never actually read a book where the love is seen as forbidden,even though step-sibling love is not illegal,it is immediately looked down on in this novel,and it was wonderful to see Estelle deal with the issue delicately,and showed just how much the issue strained Eden and Tyler's relationship.</i></span></div>

I think this is slowly happening with DIMILY. I can already tell this book is going to become extremely important and dear to me,and is definitely already one of my favorite books of this year.</i></span></div>

Age shouldn't hold someone back and people shouldn't be looked down on because of their age.

<i><span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="color: #e06666;">Estelle emailed me back saying that she has the two main characters in her mind for her perfect dream cast,Selena Gomez for Eden and Drew Roy for Tyler.</span></i><br />

She's handled a variation of different roles over the years and she'd be able to do Eden's attitude and stubbornness justice. Selena's also capable of great dramatic acting!"</b></i></span></span><i><span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></i>

Hi! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's Lauren from LaurensBookLife and i'm thrilled to bring you another exciting post today!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
I've never participated in a blog tour before and now I've been part of two major tours in the space of,yes two days!<br />

I was sent a copy of Phoenix Rising by the lovely Jessie over at Stripes Publishing,so I could read it in preparation for the amazing release of Phoenix Rising blog tour celebration that's over two weeks! </div>
<div>
Phoenix Rising is an explosive new YA series,the first book came out on the 1st June 2015 which you can buy from <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Phoenix-Rising-Bryony-Pearce/dp/1847154506/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1433624173&sr=1-1&keywords=phoenix+rising+bryony+pearce">Amazon</a> here</div>
<div>
<span style="color: #bf9000;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><b>I'm a proud member of the #BansheeCrew and I've pledged my allegiance to them! I will not show weakness and I'll survive at all costs. I'm feared and I'm FEARLESS. There's no way the #PhoenixCrew will get to the island before me!</b></i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For my part of the blog tour,I thought i'd bring all of my readers an interview with Bryony and get some answers to my burning questions!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">My first question would have to be,where did you get the idea for Phoenix Rising? What was your inspiration for the book?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">As with all my books, the character comes first. I always wanted to write about pirates and Toby appeared in all his bright, curious, bravery. He didn't fit in the past though, and so I came up with his world, a dystopian future with an environmental message so important to me.</span></i></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">I'm really loving dystopian adventures at the moment and this book didn't disappoint! What is your favorite genre to read and why?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><span style="color: #bf9000;"><i>I'm a huge fan of the genres YA, science fiction and fantasy, but I'll generally read anything and everything, except historical novels about war, I hate historical novels about war, they really upset me.</i></span></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">I'm also really intrigued by the cover,I think its lovely! What are your thoughts on it?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">I adore my cover, I was really lucky to have an amazing designer who has absolutely captured the soul of the book, and I love how the more you look at the cover the more you see - the fact that the image is carved into the side of the ship, the flames at the bottom, the landscape in the skulls mouth, Toby and Ayla in his eyes. Its really arresting.</span></i></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">I'm sure you get asked this a lot but i'm always looking to collect more and more advice as I too would love to write my own book one day. Do you have any tips for upcoming writers? How do you stand out among the crowd?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">I believe the best way to become a writer is to read everything you can and write whenever possible. It's always worth joining a critique group or an organisation such as SCBWI, who are hugely supportive to new writers and have a lot on. How do you stand out from the crowd? Develop your own unique voice, be technically excellent (by which I mean avoid basic errors like spelling, grammar, punctuation and so on) and finally, finish what you are writing. There are a lot of aspiring writers out there with half finished manuscripts, you can stand out by being one of the few who can finish what they start. Half of being a published writer, in my opinion, is persistence.</span></i></b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">Is there any characters in the book that are based on people you know? Or are they all entirely made up?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">There are inevitable aspects of people I know in the book, because a writer does not live in a vacuum and I am constantly getting ideas for characters and quirks from those I see around me, but I would never take someone I know and fully transpose them into a book, I'd be far too afraid of the consequences! There is a lot of my son, Riley, in Toby and my daughter's stubborn stoicism went into Ayla.</span></i></b></div>

<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">Do you have a favorite character out of Phoenix Rising or a character that you enjoyed to write about the most?</b></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><span style="color: #bf9000;"><i>I think Ayla is brilliant. There are few people I wish I'd had the guts to head butt on first acquaintance. She is the part of me that does the things I wish I could!</i></span></b></div>

<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">Phoenix Burning is more of a heist novel. The crew has one more thing to find before they can reach the island and Ayla tells them where it is. But she needs Toby to complete her plan. There are crosses and double crosses, the return of someone they thought long dead and lots more action and adventure.</span></i></b></div>

<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">What do you hope people take away from reading Phoenix Rising? Was there any important messages you wanted to get across?</b></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">The main theme of the book is the importance of trust in any relationship, but the message is environmental. I want people to think very hard the next time they decide to throw something away.</span></i></b></div>

<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">When I started to read the book,I was really pleased that it jumped straight into action,it was fast paced and wasn't slow.Do you think that this is something a book needs to be good? Or can a good book also start slow and build?</b></div>
<div style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.2999992370605px;">
<b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">Not at all, slow burning books can be wonderful, some of my favourites are slow burners - Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, Five People you Meet in Heaven, Captain Correlli's Mandolin, the list goes on. But I also love fast paced action. It's c</span></i></b><b style="line-height: 21.2999992370605px;"><i><span style="color: #bf9000;">ertainly a lot of fun to write.</span></i></b></div>

<div>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today is my first ever day of being part of a blog tour! It's also the last day of the tour and I've loved reading everyone's lovely posts over the last week!</span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I was sent a copy of Jessica Cole- Model Spy Catwalk Criminal as part of the blog tour celebration of release week and I'm really excited to share my review with you all today. Hopefully after reading,you would like to pick up a copy for yourself! I'm really pleased to be a part of the launch week for such an amazing UKYA book!</span></i></div>

<div>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I met Sarah at the UKYA Extravaganza in February where she signed my copy of Jessica Cole Model Spy Code Red Lipstick,Sarah was lovely to meet and to chat to.</span></i></div>

<div>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've read the Code Red Lipstick and Fashion Assassin aswell and loved them! The books are fast paced,with likable characters and great plot twists.</span></i></div>

<div>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Also,as a big part of what draws me into books is covers (don't judge books by covers I know,but some covers are so gorgeous that it's hard not to buy them based on the covers!) I was so looking forward to Catwalk Criminal because I knew I could add a great new book(and cover) to my shelf. I personally like the Catwalk Criminal cover the most,the colors are lovely and go together really well.I'm obsessed with it! Sarah tweeted me saying that she think's she likes this cover best also.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'd like to say thank you to <a href="https://twitter.com/@daydreamin_star">Faye Rogers</a> for sending me the media kit over for my post,it helped so much and makes everything a lot quicker and easier!and you don't have to search around for all the links yourself!

fast-paced teen series. Jessica Cole has been recruited to Westwood, MI6's
secret division of supermodel spies. Her first official mission seems simple at
first, until it turns into the biggest cyber-attack ever known, threatening the
security of the whole country. Then it emerges there is a traitor in the midst
at MI6 - and suddenly Jessica herself is being accused. With no one believing her
innocence, and the country on the verge of chaos, Jessica has no choice but to
take matters of national security into her own hands and catch the culprit -
fresh from the catwalk."</i></span><span style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
I contacted Michelle Toy about a month ago now,about the idea of doing a book swap,where we each put together a box full of lovely bookish stuff,along with book swag,and we would meet up and exchange boxes! I had this idea as my blog is fairly new,and I wanted to get people interested in my blog and what I'm writing about,and I know how much I enjoy watching unboxing videos,so I thought that many others would like to see this too!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Michelle was really interested in my idea,I was so pleased! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We both put together a wish list of books,some of our likes and hobbies,and then we went away for a few weeks to put together these lovely boxes!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I really enjoyed putting together Michelle's box,she told me that she was a Harry Potter fan so I mainly themed the box with Harry Potter stuff. Michelle also told me that she had recently discovered adult coloring books so I got her one,there was so many amazing books it was really hard to choose one! They were all so pretty! Other gifts that I bought Michelle were Lush bath bombs (non bookish yes,but still extremely cute!) A cute trinket box which I included some bookish wristbands in. I have a similar box as I think their really cute. As a huge fan of stationary myself,I bought Michelle two vintage notebooks,everyone needs one!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The books that I bought Michelle were </div>
<div>
<b>Love Letters To The Dead by Ava Dellaira </b></div>
<div>
<b>Tape by Steven Camden</b></div>
<div>
<b>Landline by Rainbow Rowell</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As I was sorting out my shelves the other week,I discovered that for some reason I had two copies of some of my books,due to either competitions or just being bought them by two different people. So I also put 5 other books in the box.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Me,Michelle,and three of my friends met in Birmingham City Centre yesterday to have a mini meet up to discuss all things YA! We talked about our author experiences,events/signings we've been to,our favorite books,school.. It was so lovely to see everyone,and just to have a nice chat and catch up! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I said to Michelle that I was going to film myself unboxing the parcel,and I did! You can check the video out here <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2KYY7krP_Q">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2KYY7krP_Q</a> and see my reactions for every gift! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I was honestly so grateful for all of my presents,they were all so lovely,personal and thoughtful. Michelle clearly spent time carefully selecting my gifts,making sure that everything was meaningful. I'm really glad that I asked Michelle,she was so kind with her gifts,and hopefully we can do something like this again in the future! I watched my video back and realized that I didn't really say thank you at the end in the video,but due to my tweets you know that I was extremely grateful. I kept saying OMG at everything,because I was so shocked!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I really feel like i'm becoming a part of the blogging community and I think some of this is down to Michelle,and her participation in this swap! So another big thank you because of that.</div>

But then the cracks start to show-and soon her home life is in chaos, her relationship is on the rocks and her glittering college future uncertain.</strong></em><br /><em><strong>Can Juliet piece her perfect life back together before the shockwaves threaten to collapse it completely?"</strong></em><br /><strong><em></em></strong><br />
<strong>Better Than Perfect by Melissa Kantor</strong><br /><em>When I read the blurb for this book, it sounded right up my street and something that I would really enjoy. I was not wrong!</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>As I am currently in secondary school and studying for my GCSE's next year, I found dealing with the stress of high school, and balancing everything else that Juliet has to, really relatable and this felt like a honest portrayal of what school is like.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>When things start getting bad for Juliet's mum and she sinks into depression, this is where Juliet's life starts to change. She starts to realise that maybe she won't end up with the dream life that she had planned, but is this even what she really truly wanted in the first place? This book is about self discovery, and that things are allowed to mess up from time to time, they don't always have to be perfect. They just have to be okay and manageable and Juliet realises this.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>I believe that Juliet is a flawed character and she is complex, however I do like her character as she feels honest and real, she is relatable.</em><br /><em>She cheats on her boyfriend with someone she hasn't known that long( spoiler !!! ), and she makes decisions that just aren't that thought out at all, but that's life and she is only young, so I believe that Melissa is trying to show us that you can make mistakes and that's fine, it's just how you deal with them after that counts. The book doesn't have romance at it's primary focus and that's a good thing, it was more about what Juliet wanted out of life, and her having to cope with everything that is thrown at her.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>I was pleased that the ending is open to interpretation really, you don't know what's going to happen and I like that, as not everything in life has a definite answer and resolution.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>I enjoyed the characters of this book, however I would of liked some of them to have been spoke about more and really found out more about them, and their life.</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>It was a good quick read and I'd definitely recommend it to others.</em><br />

I couldn't wait to get my hands on a proof copy as I loved Trouble so much and the idea of Remix sounded amazing!</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>The lovely Non Pratt herself sent me a copy of Remix to review around a week ago now, which I was so happy about! I've just finished reading it so I thought I had to share my feelings and thoughts on the book with you all.</em><br />
<br />
<strong>"<em>Kaz is still reeling from being dumped by the love of her life...Ruby is bored of hearing about it. Time to change the record.</em></strong><br />
<em><strong>Three days. Two best mates. One music festival.</strong></em><br />
<em><strong>Zero chance of everything working out"</strong> </em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>From the blurb alone, this book sounds amazing! It did not fail to disappoint me.</em><br />
<em>One of the things I like about the book is that you always get to hear Kaz's POV and Ruby's POV, I felt like it really made sense this book being in duel perspective and I don't think it would of worked out right if it was just one of them telling the story as they go through different events and feelings in the book, and they also spend a lot of time apart whilst there, so it's nice to hear it from both sides.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>Non doesn't linger around before the story starts I believe, this may sound like a odd expression, but it wasn't long before they arrived at the music festival, the story started straight away and I really liked that.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>Ruby and Kaz are so different in personality, however they are both funny, and kind, I found them both really likeable and wanted things to work out for both of them.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>The description of the festival really helps the story play out in your head. From the camping tents, to the music tents, to even the toilets, everything is described so accurately and with attention to detail, and for me personally, this makes it so much easier to get involved in the story because you imagine yourself there at the festival.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>Non always manages to portray teenage relationships fantastically I think. With Ruby and Kaz, she showed that even best friend's can and will fall out from time to time, it's just how you deal with it that matters, and how Ruby tried to cope when it felt like someone was taking her best friend and there felt like there was nothing she could do to stop it happening so for most of the time she just removed herself from the situation. I remember something that Gayle Forman said at an event I was at in March, friendship break up's hurt just as much as relationship break up's,you still feel pain from them. It was clear how much Kaz and Ruby really loved each other and how much they depended on each other a lot so it was difficult for the both of them to have fun at the festival without the other by their side all the time.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>I really liked the characters that Non created, they felt real and honest. I loved Ruby's relationship with her brother Lee, they'd always be there for each other and try their best to help each other out when things were going wrong. </em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>One of my favourite characters was probably Stu (!!). There was just something about him that I really liked, because as a reader I could tell how much he loved Ruby and he still wasn't over her, even though she couldn't stand him half the time. Towards the end of the book he is so sincere and kind I couldn't help but swoon over him! </em><br />

<em>I've tried to keep this review as spoiler free as possible, but I'd really recommend this book to everyone. It captures you in with the very first chapter, and then you are hooked all the way through. The characters are fantastic,Non's writing style is great and the story just flows really well. There are some chapters/people that will shock you! ( I really wasn't expecting "him" to be like that-or that to happen between Ruby and "him"(spoiler free!!!) some people may of called it, but I really didn't.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>I definitely will be purchasing the final copy as it looks lovely! </em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>Happy Reading!!</em><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Lottery Boy is not like any other book I’ve read before, it
is not my preferred genre, yet I read some reviews on Good Reads of it and
everyone had described it as fast paced, gripping and with interesting
characters. After reading these comments, I was very excited to read it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I will<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>just give
you a quick summary of the plot which I found from GoodReads</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">“A
fast-moving and gripping thriller with a powerful emotional engagement; this is
a young boy’s story of loss and unbearable hope as he survives on London’s
streets.<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Reminiscent
of Slumdog Millionaire, this contemporary adventure story set on the streets of
London follows a boy whose luck is about to change. Since his mother's death,
Bully has lost his old life. Living rough with his dog, Jack, he can’t imagine
his future. But one day, in the last birthday card she ever gave him, he finds
a winning lottery ticket, a last gift from his mum that suddenly offers such
hope. If only he can get to his prize on time. Life is not that simple. Bully’s
struggle to survive has just got a whole lot harder. They’re after him on the
streets; everyone wants a piece of him. And even if he does claim all that
money, will he really be winning what he needs the most?”<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>

read the book, because <span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">

to perhaps 17 as the book really draws you in and you want to find out what
happens.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I imagined this book to be quite moving, and perhaps a tear
jerker, as the summary suggests. Whilst it is moving, it is also quite funny
and I enjoyed the humour in certain chapters, and I felt that it really added
to the premise of the book.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I loved Bully’s relationship with his dog Jack and it
reminded me how much of an impact animals can have on our lives sometimes.
Bully will leave you wondering sometimes if he is going to manage to get
himself out of trouble.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I found myself reading this very quickly as I wanted to know
what happened was on the edge of my seat half the time!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">It’s incredibly tense because there is other mean character
who tries to get their hands on the lottery ticket too, such as a mean thug
called Janks who is out to get Bully too.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think that Michael
doesn’t hide the details away at the beginning of book with Bully being
homeless; it is dealt with good knowledge and care.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In December,2014 I got the chance to meet my favorite author E Lockhart and have all my books and posters signed!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
I first read We Were Liars in May 2014,and to this day it is still my favorite stand alone,maybe it always be. Now don't get me wrong,I have lots of favorite books,that I love with all my heart,but We Were Liars just claims victory for me over the rest. I can't explain why,and I've tried to review this book before and the words just don't come to me to explain it properly,which is odd considering I recommend it to pretty much everyone,like all the time. It's all I talk about.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was really nervous to meet E Lockhart,I felt so sick and excited when she walked in,like this is the author of my favorite book and I finally get to meet her. I nearly cried when she walked in,I couldn't believe I was finally getting to meet the person behind Cady,Johnny,Mirren and Gat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I actually wrote a whole list of questions,and a letter for E Lockhart,but I was way too nervous to give them her. On the picture,there is a box of chocolates which I bought her. I remember her saying no-one had ever bought her a present to a signing before,looking back on it,I wish I'd of bought her something bigger,and given her my letter that I wrote.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It was a fantastic evening,she is absolutely hilarious,and when she was reading parts of the book I could imagine it so clearly in my head. I hope everyone gets the chance to meet the author of their favorite book because it is so amazing and surreal!</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
I was lucky enough to meet Gayle Forman on 7th March 2015,so I thought i'd write a little bit first about my experience of meeting her.</div>
<div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8FL6wLT-ajbgkDpVhg-BN202pv_7cuVb8RnGleOAfnLycezxgw3n2cEnn9dFRUbFhAc02KDowUaNmrUExNsLaWMF8iO3cbIOoJmzgIw7eg3yb9Qwfq9hK1KrXQk3q8nPxskgK-AbdWHk/s1600/gayle+forman.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8FL6wLT-ajbgkDpVhg-BN202pv_7cuVb8RnGleOAfnLycezxgw3n2cEnn9dFRUbFhAc02KDowUaNmrUExNsLaWMF8iO3cbIOoJmzgIw7eg3yb9Qwfq9hK1KrXQk3q8nPxskgK-AbdWHk/s1600/gayle+forman.jpg" height="200" width="200" /></a>Gayle is such a lovely,friendly,welcoming YA author! She was so kind to everyone,really funny and down to earth. Gayle did a reading with some audience members and one of her friends,I thought this was really entertaining. Considering Gayle has wrote some pretty HUGE books, (If I Stay,Where She Went,I Was Here etc!) she was so humble and just really lovely to chat to. Definitely one of the nicest authors I've met. I had 7 books with me,and when I walked up to her,I apologized for having so many,Gayle replied telling me not to apologize at all and that it meant I enjoyed her books,so she would sign as many as I liked. I thought this was super sweet,and I realized that she was right. So what if we have 7 + books in our hands to be signed? The author should be flattered that we have spent our money on buying their work,because we enjoy it so much.</div>
<div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I Was Here Review:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cody thought she knew everything there was to know about Meg,but just how wrong can you be about a person? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When best friend Meg commits suicide,there is no-one more shocked than Cody.She thought they shared everything,every secret,every feeling.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cody travels to Meg's university to gather the last of her things,and she finds this whole other world that Meg never mentioned to her.New friends,a whole new life. And Cody knew nothing about it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cody discovers secrets about things that may just change her memory of Meg forever.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But what if the only person that can help her find out why Meg took her own life is really the reason behind it?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really enjoyed I Was Here,the characters were realistic and honest. You felt Cody's pain and anger as she gathered more information about Meg,her relationship with her mother was really interesting to read,who treated her more as a friend than a daughter yet would do anything to protect her I believe and would be there for her when it mattered.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There is also a certain character you can't help but swoon over( if you've read:you know! and if you haven't, you must!) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Scenes in this book can be very triggering so please note this when reading,as it deals very heavily with suicide. Gayle handled this with great care and respect I believe,with a great knowledge of understand without it being too heavy to read.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really reccomend this book,it has twists and turns and likeable characters,and Gayle is such a lovely author.</div>

<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">You can buy the book at <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hooks-Daughter-Heidi-Schulz/dp/1910002216/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1430043800&sr=1-1&keywords=hooks+daughter">http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hooks-Daughter-Heidi-Schulz/dp/1910002216/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1430043800&sr=1-1&keywords=hooks+daughter</a> and i'm very excited for the second book Hooks Revenge: The Pirate Code,coming out in Hardcover in September,which I hope is also released in the UK.</b><br />
<div class="grid_12 blog_mob_cont" style="float: left; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px 3.453125px; width: 685.75px;">
<div style="color: #00314a; font-size: 1em;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #00314a; font-size: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Jocelyn has some very strong personality traits, are you similar to Jocelyn? If not, who did you base her character on?</strong></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">I think parts of Jocelyn come from me. I certainly don’t like being told what I can and can’t do, and am always happy to prove people wrong in that regard. However, for the most part, Jocelyn is her own character. I spent a lot of time thinking about what Captain Hook’s daughter might be like. With every revision, she became more solid. I quite like who she turned out to be.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">If you can decide, who was your favourite character to write about? </strong></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Oh, that’s so hard! I loved writing Jocelyn’s headstrong determination, Roger’s heart, the sweet, if somewhat unhinged, devotion of Mr. Smee, and the hunger to prove themselves in Jocelyn’s crew. It’s so hard to pick just one. However, I will say, the narrator has the best lines. If I must pick, it will have to be him, just because his surliness was so much fun to write.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">If <em>Hook’s Daughter</em> came to the big screen, who would you like to play Jocelyn?</strong></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">I’d watch Amy Poehler in anything. Don’t tell me she’s too old to play a tween girl—she has incredible range. In fact, can she just play all the roles?</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">When did you get the idea to take a well-known story (<em>Peter Pan</em>), and add a new perspective to it with Jocelyn? </strong><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><br />
When my daughter was young, she was obsessed with Peter Pan. We spent many, many hours “fighting nasty pirates” together in Neverland. I think the start of any good story is a question, and one day I wondered, “What if Captain Hook had had a daughter?” The thought was so interesting to me, I had to write this book to find out the answer.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Are there any plans for a second book? I would be keen to find out how Jocelyn gets on in her second adventure!</strong></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">There is a sequel coming out in the U.S. this fall. I’d love to see it become available in the U.K. as well. Fingers crossed!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Did you make a conscious decision to have the reader not know who the narrator was? (I kept changing my mind throughout!) </strong></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">That narrator is wily, isn’t he? I know who he is, and if you get the chance to read book two, you’ll likely figure it out—there are some strong clues there. But yes, I intentionally chose to keep his identity under wraps. It felt true to his suspicious nature. He wouldn’t want to spill all his secrets in one go.</span></div>

<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">I loved the roommates Priscilla Edgeworth and Nanette Arbuckle. Do you think Jocelyn would ever have got on with them?</strong></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Thank you! I love them too—such little villians! They are horrible to Jocelyn for such different reasons: Prissy because of jealousy and Nanette because she needs Prissy’s approval. I can relate to both of those feelings.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">It’s hard to say if the three girls would ever have become friends, but it’s possible. People change so much on the way to growing up. Sometimes petty jealousies are outgrown and allegiances do change. If I ever write more of Jocelyn’s story I definitely want to bring them all together again—and then we’ll see.</span></div>

<strong style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">What was your writing plan for <em>Hook’s Daughter</em>? Did you research into the original plot? </strong></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">I had already read J.M Barrie’s <em>Peter Pan</em> and <em>The Little White Bird</em> multiple times when I decided to write <em>Hook’s Daughter</em>, but I certainly reread and relied heavily on them while working on this book. I was also inspired by Andrew Birkin’s nonfiction title<em>, J.M Barrie and the Lost Boys: The Real Story Behind Peter Pan</em>.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Many other authors and incidents from history helped to round out the story—Jane Austen, John Bunyan, Jonathan Swift, Robert Luis Stevenson, and of course, Ferdinand Magellan all played a role.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">As for a plan? I didn’t really have one. I just wrote and rewrote until I had the best story I could possibly write. It was a lot of hard work, but I’m very proud of it.</span></div>

Brought up in the Marsh, Violet is a country girl with a stubborn flair and the most unusual eye color. Living in the South gate foundling house, she meets Raven, with her quick remarks and a tendency to disobey, Raven and Violet become dear friends over their four years at the founding house, but that friendship cant last forever. Each surrogate must be sold, at the annual <nobr><a class="pxInta" href="http://yabirmingham.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/guest-review-jewel-amy-ewing.html#" id="PXLINK_2_0_1" style="background-color: transparent !important; border-bottom-color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-width: 0px 0px 1px !important; color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; display: inline !important; padding-bottom: 1px !important;">auction</a></nobr>. Every girl must be sold,and Violet is no exception. </div>

Violet is sold to the House of the Lake, it comes with it's privileges and things that Violet has never experienced before become normal daily routine for her. However,the lady she is sold to is somewhat strange and unpredictable. Her time in the castle as the surrogate is fairly pleasant and she becomes good friends with her Lady In Waiting Annabelle and a member of the preparation team, Lucien. Violet has her own tea parlor,<nobr><a class="pxInta" href="http://yabirmingham.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/guest-review-jewel-amy-ewing.html#" id="PXLINK_5_0_4" style="background-color: transparent !important; border-bottom-color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-width: 0px 0px 1px !important; color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; display: inline !important; padding-bottom: 1px !important;">drawing</a></nobr> room and other luxuries. This does not change her desire to get out of the palace and away from being a surrogate mother.<br />
<br />
Violet meets Ash, the handsome royal companion. Violet thinks he has it all,but he too is carrying a dream,to get out of the palace,and find a happier life for himself. If Violet mannages to find a way out,will she take this handsome stranger with her,or leave as she began,alone?</div>

This book will certaintly leave every reader wanting more. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I believe it is one of the best books I have ever read. Everything is described in such detail and it is so different to any other book I have ever read. I lost myself in this book, once I started to read the first few pages I couldn't put it down.I got so involved in the book that I can imagine clearly in my head what each of the characters look like. It is in some chapters, quick a dark book as it can be quite sad however there must be a happy ending and everyone loves a happy ending. With Violet being a strong and determined character, I believe this trilogy could be as popular as The <nobr><a class="pxInta" href="http://yabirmingham.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/guest-review-jewel-amy-ewing.html#" id="PXLINK_6_0_5" style="background-color: transparent !important; border-bottom-color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-width: 0px 0px 1px !important; color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; display: inline !important; padding-bottom: 1px !important;">Hunger Games</a></nobr> and Divergent as they both have such strong female leads and I believe Violet has the same Characteristics as Katniss (Hunger Games) and Tris (Divergent). I really recommend this book to anyone who enjoys adventure, romance and believes that things can change for the better.. </div>

I was given The Jewel:The Lone City Trilogy as a proof back in the summer 2014,I fell in love with this book and the characters and I'm so excited for the second book to come out: The White Rose in October.</div>
<div>
There will be a novella released in July called The House Of The Stone. This will focus on Raven and how she is treated in the palace of the stone.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #00314a; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">
<em><strong>*Suitable for over 16s</strong></em><br /><br />Trouble is a unique novel which I thoroughly enjoyed reading.<br /><br />Hannah, the female protagonist lands herself in a tricky situation (spoiler free!), with nobody to turn to. Until the new boy Aaron Tyler throws her a lifeline.<br />Their friendship blossoms and soon he becomes one of the very few people that Hannah can rely on. But is Aaron too good to be true?<br />With messy friendships and her grades slipping, Hannah must take control of her life, with or without Aarons help.<br /><br />I strongly recommend this book to teenagers who are interested in Young Adult novels because I believe it portrays teenage school friendships very honestly. Non Pratt deals with peer pressure in this story incredibly well and shows you how to deal with it correctly. </div>

I'm super excited for Non's new book Remix to come out and i'm awaiting a proof copy. I love Non's style of writing! Me and a friend also featured Trouble in our top 5 favorite books so far.</div>

Francis has never had a friend like Jessica before,one that makes him feel important and wants to spend time with him,not make fun of him. Jessica is a ghost, which does not bother Francis at all,he is happy to have a friend. Jessica has never had anyone who can truly see her for her before,or even see her at all. Usually I talk quite a lot about the book plot, but today I thought I would talk about some of the themes of the book and how it affected me.This book was for me a heart warming book which showed that things can change for the better,you just have to believe. The theme of friendship is displayed beautifully and I felt extremely uplifted when I had finished the book. One of the main points of the novel is about trying to fit in,which I think a lot of teens can relate to,therefore I would recommend this for everyone. The main characters are interesting and you feel very involved in the story. Jessica's ghost does have issues such as depression and suicide,these issues are sensitive so I was pleased to see them dealt with a great deal of care and not too hard hitting for people to read. This is honestly a beautiful story.</div>

The Designated Ugly Fat Friend.<br />
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">
Whilst at first, I thought I wouldn't be keen on this book because of the title, it has now become one of my favorite books I've read so far.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">
Bianca Piper is the Duff, but she was completely unaware of this, until Wesley Rush tells her, and then she starts to wonder how she has never picked up on this before, people are always asking her about her best friends and never about herself, and she finally realizes why. I thought this book was going to make teenagers feel more negative about their appearance, but Bianca's character and personality I felt took over the book and led you away from the negative outlook, for the most part, which I was glad of. She is sarcastic and cynical, and can at times irritate you. However, I really connected with the character because she felt real and have a realistic view to how teenagers actually act. The film and the book have many differences, in the book she lives with her dad and her mum comes to visit now and again (spoiler!), so it is nice to see her relationship with her dad play out in front of you. I don't want to spoil the book too much but if you love sarcastic characters and super cute guys then this book is definitely for you! It is a fast read, Kody Keplingers writing style is great, it flows really easily and makes you not want to put the book down.<br />
<br />
Will Bianca ever reverse Duff herself or will she carry the label forever? </div>

<strong>Please note:</strong> the book contains alcohol abuse in some chapters,cursive language throughout. Age rating would depend on how mature the individual is.</div>

<b style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">BETTER LEFT BURIED REVIEW-------</b><br />
<b style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></b>
<b style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></b>
<br />
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
When I received Better Left Buried,I had high expectations for this book. I loved Emma's book "Now You See Me". It was tense,and had so many twists and turns,constantly keeping the reader on the edge of the seat with what was going to happen next. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Better Left Buried did not disappoint,it was fast paced,and had great character development. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
I'm going to try and keep my review as spoiler free as possible as I would love everyone to read it for themselves and see what they make of the characters.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Sarah is coming to terms with her brothers sudden death,which has shocked the entire family to the core, on top of all this she has to deal with a extremely moody distant best friend who doesn't seem interested in her anymore,and prepare for possibly the most important audition of her life.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Sarah is being stalked,a man following her every move,what seems like a coincidence soon turns into a very dangerous race against time,to discover this persons true identity or look over her shoulder for the rest of her life.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Sometimes the people closest to you are really the ones you don't know at all,at least in Sarah's case. Her brother was hiding a massive secret from her and their family,and it is only a matter of time before his secret will catch up with Sarah and ruin her life forever.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
But perhaps,when Sarah really needs help,it is from the person you would least expect?</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
I can't say enough how much I loved this book,I read it in one sitting and you become so involved in the story,with the characters and their lives that you feel like you are in their world with them. Emma is such a brilliant author,her ideas are really original and the chapters just flow when I am reading. I really hope there is a second book for Better Left Buried,as I'd love to find out if Sarah's friendship with her best friend improves and whether anything happens between Sarah and a certain character?! (spoiler free,remember!) Also,when I was reading,I could imagine it being made into a movie,I can imagine the characters so vividly in my head. Both of Emma's YA books will grab you,and make it impossible for you to put them down,they are jam packed with heart racing,edge of seat scenes.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
A recommend for everyone.<br />
