Received this book in a good reads giveaway and boy am i glad i did. I couldn't put it down and read it in one sitting,i loved all the different characters who all seemed so real ,if i found a reading circle like that id join it in a shot,loved the ups and downs and felt i lived it all with them,i am a big fan of erotica,but i wouldn't class this in that genre,it was more chick lit with spice ,i was in stitches with laughter at some points,it was nice to read a book with such strong, normal, female role models. But by far my favorite character had to be Reggie, loved the chic geek,so glad to have discovered a new author.

Cecelia Ahern wrote this as though she had been writing YA Dystopian all her life. She is my favorite author and I was so excited when I heard she was bringing this one out. The style she wrote it in is incredible, I actually felt like I was the main charector and that never happens as usually when I read a book it plays out in my head like a tv show. This book made me feel like I was living inside this book,I was living this unfair life with rules and regulations. I couldn't stand Celestine at the start of this story I wanted to give her such a shake! By the end I loved her. I cannot wait for the 30th of March next year!

Received a free copy of this book through NetGalley for an unbiased opinion.
Every single recipe in this cookbook looked so awesome...but it's cookies, so that's hard not to be the case.
My five star review is actually based more on content and layout. The author broke the recipes down into six sections, and explained how and why she divided the recipes as she did. She also included a very useful list of 10 cookie tips and tricks.
I think my favorite part of the cookbook, though, was that each recipe was simple even though some looked more complicated. There were very few of the 50 cookie recipes that required ingredients that weren't relatively standard in a household. And she included an icing recipe and tips on how to best store cookies so that they are preserved well for a later time.

Characters with different personalities
I picked this book up due to some friends who said it was good. I didn't think much about it until the story sucked me in. I really enjoyed the take the author had on the Heaven versus Hell aspect and how it affects humanity. This book had me wanting to finish it in one sitting. I enjoyed how Brielle and Lincoln seemed to be at each other's throat constantly. Brielle and Shea were my favorite character duos. I found it inspiring on how much Brielle was willing to risk, not just to ensure her freedom but to protect those she cared about. This book held suspense, romance, comedy and lots of action. I found it hard to put down and even more upsetting when my Kindle died. I definitely recommend it to everyone.

Fables & Fairy Tales to Cross Stitch Véronique Enginger is a wonderful collection of fairy tale themed projects with stitching charts and finishing suggestions. It's perfect for those with knowledge of cross stitching and those interested in stitching up their favorite classic fairy tales.
The book is easy to use, organized from which are the fables section and the fairy tales section of the book. Every project is in a visual format. A very straightforward and simple guidance, very nice visual patterns book, which you can easily follow and copy the design exactly. I love the designs and think the author did a great job reviving the fables and fairy tales of many others and my own childhood with these beautiful cross stitch patterns.

Harkness is my favorite author, and I love her All Souls Universe. While I liked this novel, and anxiously awaited it, it was... odd. It was an odd summer jaunt and, while I ended up really liking it at the end, it was kind of... unnecessary? Pointless? I feel like that's a harsh word to use, since I did enjoy it.
It was basically the guide to becoming a vampire in the universe. Honestly, I've always thought Phoebe was a boring character and her transformation into a vampire was...boring. Marcus was, by far, the best part of the book. I'm not a huge fan of children in books, because I just don't think they're interesting. I was relieved when I was done reading those chapters.
Overall, I liked it, but it was just a weird foray.
