Love this cover and I am so happy to have won a copy from bookish first to review. I used to play basketball in middle school and I enjoy any YA books that take me back to the time of playing sports in High school. I also love a good rom com and this book has that too but of course I am going to bring up that they are a diverse couple and she is plus size. I love a book that has representation and this one is so cute down to her jordan's on the cover and his van's.
Friends turned into more than friends story and it is a coming of age tale for both of the characters. Bethany and Jacob are bad at dating and decide to pretend date and usually this kind of story ends up getting dramatic messy and full of teen angst that is hard for me to get through but this book was totally not that vibe. They are both strong characters that don't succumb to peer pressure which is awesome <3<3<3

I loved Sunbringer by Hannah Kaner.
I love the characters.
I love the world they live in.
I love the gods and goddesses of both the large and tiny details of everyday life within this world. I mean, just WHY would they want to get rid of them?!
Ok, ok, I did read the last book, I know the reasons!
There’s a lot more world-building in this novel than the first (until everything REALLY kicks off!), and the three main characters of Inara/ Skediceth (they come as a unit, after all), Elogast and Kissen are separated. And for very good reasons.
We can see the scope of the problem with these gods - or is it a problem with humans as well? I mean, power seems to corrupt both equally.
There are some cracking twists, and the end has left me greedy for more. I’m not one to rush an author (1. They wouldn’t listen; 2. I don’t want to mess up the process anyway!), but I can’t wait to find out what happens next - because it’s going to be BIG!!

This movie was everything I ever wanted. I grew up reading the Wonder Woman comic and watching Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman on TV. I was excited for this movie and it delivered. Gal Gadot is wonderful as Wonder Woman. The rest of the cast is great also. The story is interesting and the battle scenes are well done. This whole film was done right and the little girl in me remembered that excitement of seeing Wonder Woman for the first time and how much I loved her and that I love her still.

I love this film so much because it was one of the first things I ever saw Christopher Walken in and with it being that it's also a Stephen King book, it's win/win.
Looking at it now after watching a vast variety of his movies, it's nice to see him play a sympathetic character, a bit of a loser even.
The film is slow in places but stick with it. The meeting between Johnny and Martin Sheen's character is literally to die for!!!

Captivating
This book is a very easy read, obviously aimed at pre teen and younger. That being said, at the age of 25 I can't even count the amount of times I have reread this, it never gets old. I'm very glad that they kept the film very close to the book and really brang it too life. I love how the book holds a lot more parts that the film missed out aswell, the whole first chapter is almost completely ignored in the film. Makes it more exciting!

I'm beginning to think Cassie Edwards' books just aren't for me. While I think this one has been better written (as far as I got, at least) than previous books of hers I've read, it still feels very simplistic. I don't much like the love at first sight because he/she is beautiful theme, it just doesn't work for me. I guess I like to read more originality in Native American romances; so far, all hers seem so similar to each other, and do not deviate much from one central plot.

Well, this book has everything I like, vampires, mages, werewolves, Demons and much much more, I absolutly love Sabina Kane, she has attidude and underneath that really tough exterior she has a really soft heart that I thoroughly enjoyed finding out through the 3 books (Mage in Black, Green-eyed Demon) and I cannot wait for the fourth book as i'm sure it will be even better the the first 3 as with each book we see more of who Sabina Kane really is and she gets even more interesting :)
