I would have happily given this 5 stars if not for that bit near the end where Dean went off the rails. I know he was in pain but you had a great girl there waiting to help you, you arse!! What were you thinking!?

I loved Dean. I think I was looking forward to his story since the first one. He was such a manwhore but the fun, flirts with anything kind. He wasn't heartless at all. I couldn't wait to see what sort of girl would bring him to his knees, and who would have thought a rebound, one night thing with a girl who did not want to sleep with him while sober would have been the one?

I loved them as a couple and I look forward to Tucks book!

I am Bat by Morag Hood is a simple picture book. There are many things children will enjoy about it. The main character, Bat, is grumpy and selfish with his food, but he is adorable.The illustrations are cute and the reader ends up liking this grumpy little bat. The drawings are simple, but are done well. The book touches on fruit, colors, feelings, and hints at friends.

I give this story 4/5 stars.

I'm currently bingeing the 4th season of "House of Cards," and I must say this novella fits right into the frame of mind that goes hand in hand with that show. Just these few pages has me geared up and ready to go, playing "spot the backroom deal," "whose hand is in whose pocket," and so forth. If this is a lead-in for the 5th full book, go ahead and sign me up!

While I graduated several years ago, I was easily able to look back on that point in my life and find everything in this book to be extremely relevant. It's easy to follow, simple to understand, and explained in a way that makes sense no matter who you are, student or parent. I would say this should be a must-read for high school seniors, especially those who aren't quite sure what they want to do upon graduation.

I adored this book. I got stalking jack the ripper vibes when I first started reading this - but since I hated ripper I thought for sure I would grow to dislike this book - but that was not the case at all for me. I thought it was well written and interesting and not predictable at all, I thought for sure I knew who did it but.. nope, wrong! There were a few parts I was like, meh on, hence the 4 stars instead of 5 but still a definite must read book!

I won this ARC from a Goodreads Giveaway and had been looking forward to reading it. However, I was pretty disappointed with this book, with all the great buzz that had been created so far. I would give it 2.5 out of 5 stars. For all the drama I felt like it really lacked excitement until the last three chapters and it still was wrapped up extremely quickly once you reached the part that was a real page turner. I did enjoy the chapter switch from each character narrative.

What was with that ending? "Paradise is waiting for you." I really hope that's in regards to her getting a HEA in the end and not death because I don't think I could cope with that.

A proper rollercoaster once more. Loving some more Gods action, apart from that bit with Ares and Alex near the end. I wanted to murder him myself!

Off to start book 5! And hoping everything works out in the end for this lot and no more semi important characters getting killed off. Please...

Again, my complaint that Goodreads doesn't allow half-star ratings. Roomhate gets a 4.5/5 stars for me! I absolutely loved the story, from beginning to end. Who doesn't enjoy a relationship where love is forbidden and the sexual tension is thick enough to taste? The ending was beautiful - no ifs, ands, or buts about it. I wanted to immediately unread just so I could re-read it all over again and enjoy the pure sunshine it put into my soul. That's literally how happy the ending made me.
