So Sorry!

 So sorry it has been awhile since I last posted and I plan on catching up with all the books I read since my last post. My Mom passed away August 8th and through my sadness and depression I have not felt like doing much posting on social media or here. My Mom went into the hospital on March 20th unable to breathe well and soon found out she had a heart attack. On March 21st, she had to have emergency surgery in which they put in 7 stints in her heart. They thought everything would be ok but her kidneys failed and with her already having slight dementia it just got worse. She passed away quietly in no pain at all with my Dad by her side. We buried my Mom on August 13th in the family cemetery and since then I have been fighting this depression. My Mom is my best friend and will always be. She was my everything and I love her so much. I miss her terribly. I am trying to move on a bit and I know she wouldn't want me to be sad forever so here I am back enjoying my reading and want to catch up with my blog! Take care everyone and Stay Healthy!

Good Girls Lie

Stars 5/5
Good Girls Lie by J.T. Ellison

This was a real mystery! I just loved it. The story follows Ash, a young girl from the UK that comes to Virginia, USA to a boarding school, The Goode School better known as Silent Ivy. The school has had a violent history of death and murder. Now that Ash arrives, bad things are starting to happen again. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it.

The Craftsman (The Craftsman, #1)

Stars 5/5
The Craftsman (The Craftsman, #1) by Sharon Bolton

This was an awesomely creepy story and I just loved it. The book follows Florence, a woman that arrested the coffin maker killer, Larry Glassbrook, but something is wrong. After all these years, the killings have started up again which brings up the question... Was Larry the real killer? I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it.

All Eyes On Us

Stars 4/5
All Eyes On Us by Kit Frick

Holy Moly! This book was a roller coaster of a ride and I really enjoyed it! This is one of those books that you don't know the "who done it" until the very end. The story follows two girls, Amanda and Rosalie. Amanda is the long time girlfriend of Carter, the most popular boy in town. Rosalie is Carter's secret girlfriend but Rosalie is a lesbian and is only using Carter to impress her overly religious cult-like parents. Everything is fine until some one starts texting them both leaving threats. I don't want to go into the book as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it!

Fat Girl On A Plane

Stars 4/5
Fat Girl On A Plane by Kelly Devos

I really enjoyed this book but I have to say I wish the ending would of wrapped up issues a bit more. I honestly would love another book going into Cookie's life after. The book follows Cookie, the daughter of a super model mom that doesn't care about her and a father who is an international doctor who never even bothers to come home to see her. Cookie is raised by her grandmother and loves to design clothes. She believes that the only thing holding her back in life is her weight so she goes on a diet. This book is about friendship, relationships with lovers and family, finding yourself and who you want to be. I definitely recommend it and fingers crossed for a second book.

Darkest Hour (The Mediator #4)

Stars 5/5
Darkest Hour (The Mediator #4) by Meg Cabot

This is the fourth book in The Mediator series and OMG I think I loved this book best so far. Jesse is just so book boyfriend material. The story continues to follow Suze as she starts her summer job babysitting kids at the local hotel. That is where she meets Jack, an eight year old that claims he sees ghosts. Suze continues to be pulled out of sleep by ghosts and this ghost is Jesse's cousin Maria de Silva. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it as well as the series.

Reunion (The Mediator #3)

Stars 5/5
Reunion (The Mediator #3) by Meg Cabot

This is the third book in The Mediator series and I am really enjoying this series. I have to say that I will be sad when it comes to an end. This book continues to follow Suze as her best friend from New York comes to visit as four ghosts called the RLS Angels are out to murder one of Suze's classmates. The RLS Angels are four very popular high school kids that recently died in an automobile accident and the sole survivor was Michael, a high school guy from Suze's school. The Angels are out for revenge. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend this book as well as the series.
