Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated Nickelodeon Pandemonium #1 in Books
Jun 18, 2018
Nickelodeon Pandemonium #1 by Eric Esquivel, Stefan Petrucha is a quirky comic that early teen readers will enjoy. This book was a quick and easy read. The book is full of puns, jokes, silliness and action. In this book the reader is given 12 different comics. Before the comic this is a short biography interview of some of the authors and illustrators. This book will be entertaining to readers to like comedy and graphic novels.
I give this book 4/5 stars.

Disclaimer: I received an e-copy in exchange for an honest review.
The title definitely doesn't lie -- these are some STRANGE little girls. Each story is so different from the last, and they all suck you in and don't let up until the end. There are even a couple I could see being turned into at least a novella on their own, as I would love to read more about that particular girl's story.
Really interesting read, and since it's a collection of short stories, you can read a little bit at a time and not forget where you are.
5 stars

My first comment when I finished this book "well that was different" - I dont know why I always feel that way after reading a Rowell book, and none will ever compare to Eleanor and Park for me so none will get 5 stars but this book was kind of adorable. It was also kind of stalkerish and I feel like I should have more issues with that then I did - I mean talk about awkward. It technically all made sense in the end but I was like, wow, this is too much sometimes - ah well, can't win em all
Roxanne (13 KP) rated The Ladybird Book of Dating in Books

❃❃❃❃❃ <b>5 Hilarious Stars</b>
Due to my lack of participation in the dating world, my father decided to purchase this book for me to give me some pointers. Now THIS was hilarious!
Done in the style of the all popular 'LadyBird Book Of' series complete with the traditional artwork and a dash of British humour this is definitely one to pick up. It goes through what you should expect from dating in this day and age in a very honest manner, which is just perfect. It's in your face, it's raw and it's guaranteed to give you a giggle.

Roxanne (13 KP) rated My Mini Midwife: Everything You Need to Know About Pregnancy and Birth in Books
Nov 9, 2018
This book is all you need for everything you need or want to know about you and your bump. I would recommend this to every pregnant lady. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because it is aimed at the 'traditional' pregnancy with the 'traditional' family plan...not with any support to an unplanned pregnancy or perhaps a single mother to be. This is probably not intentionally one sided but it would have been even more helpful with some information perhaps dedicated to a family which may not necessarily be seen as 'the norm'.
Roxanne (13 KP) rated Pray For Silence (Kate Burkholder, #2) in Books
Nov 14, 2018
I didn't think things could get any better after the first book but I have to say that this one is even better than the first one, I was very happily surprised I must say. It was more intense, it was more gruesome and the character development was just brilliant. I love the developing relationship between the two main characters, their relationship is very realistic and troublesome which keeps things very interesting. I am very much looking forward to the next one in the series as I think (after reading this one) it's going to get even better! 5 stars from me!

_____ <b>5 'It Could Be You' Stars </b>
This book totally messed with my head! I loved it!
I'll admit it's a strange one and I haven't read anything like it before so to me it's definitely original. It's also very creepy and very tense. The author is great at building tension, it starts from the very first page and doesn't let you go until the end...even then you'll be thinking about it with your night-light on.
It's pretty scary to think this kind of thing happens in real life...talk about nightmare neighbours.

Dani/Jada's story made three of these stars happen alone. Her story just tugged so much at my heart, and I need to hear more of this. The other star is for Lor and Jo. I really enjoy their few chapters! Mac and Barrons are becoming very repetitive. I loved them in the first 5 books, but now, I just feel like Mac repeats herself over and over and rambles about the same things over and over. But, overall, I feel this book is about to lead up to something big in the next one! Or maybe it was just that cliffhanger.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated First and Goal (Moving the Chains, #1) in Books
Jan 8, 2021
4.5 stars.
It would have been 5 if not for that proper cliffhanger ending.
It was all sweetness and light and rainbows and butterfies for me throughout, though it drove me mad a few times with how oblivious they both were to each others feelings, but that end bit! So dark and cliffhanger-y. I even had to carry on into the sneak peek for the next book just to try and get some answers but nope, cut off before we find out if everyone is okay. Bloody hell!
Now i really need to read book 2 to see what happens next.
