Auburn (57 KP) rated Just Friends in Books
Apr 10, 2019
Just friends focuses on what happens when you have so much self doubt and feel invisible. Josh doesn't really believe in himself and knows he isn't good enough for new girl Jena. When they become friends and she relys on him his situation becomes more screwed up. A should he/shouldn't he starts. Add in an old friendship that takes a backseat and it's a lot to read.
For me the inner monologue was just a tad annoying. I felt the ending was suitable but the way it comes around just doesn't feel complete.

This novel takes place in the near future, where a disease called Hayden's Syndrome has infected some of the population, leaving them bed-bound with a functioning brain. The main character is Chris, who has Haden's and is a new FBI agent, using an android, nicknamed a 'threep'.
This is definitely a police-procedural novel with a future twist. I liked the mix a lot. Scalzi's characterizations are always good, and this was no exception. I devoured the book in two days and promptly moved onto the sequel.

There was a lot of filler in this book. The story could have been told without the repetitive descriptions of how hot Gideon Cross is or how beautiful Eva is and how they are each so lucky to have the other. With this being the fourth book in the series, I think we've heard this all enough before. We get it, they are two beautiful, messed up people, envied by all around them, desired by all, and they fill the crazy, messed up holes in each others' lives.

Very surprisingly I quite enjoyed this?! Yes it's very cheesy, what did you expect? I'm sure most people have panned this just because Britney is in it? It has a TV film feel to it but it's actually a pretty decent road trip film as a group of once close young friends head to L.A. together for different reasons. I thought Britney acted a lot better than I expected and it isn't overloaded with her songs for those who aren't fans of hers. It's not a bad film by any means.

fantastic read
This is the third book in this series by this author. This is definitely one hot and steamy read. This is a quick read story but the author packs a lot into the pages. Amazing well written characters with very intense chemistry between them. This book will hook you from the first page, keeping you reading till the very last page. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended quick read

Ok
This movie had plenty of potential. But I think it did what so many movies do and didn't give it an actual ending. The acting was decent. The effects and action aren't too bad, either. The story was ok but had a lot of predictable parts and not much in the way of surprise twists. It tried but they didn't come of well. Over all this was not a terrible 'alien invasion' movie. But could've been much better. All in all it's worth a watch if you're bored.

This is the first book I've read by this author. This is the first book in this series by this author. This is a very short read, about 65 pages. This book is full of hot and steamy scenes, fantastic banter between the characters and a hot alpha hero mixed with a sassy heroine. Fantastic story, there was a lot packed into the pages of this short read. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

You are always guaranteed a fantastic read from this author. This book has it all, blackmail, betrayal and flashbacks. This is a mafia second chance romance story. Each one of the books in this series just keep getting better and better the more you read. This is a quick novella but the author packs a lot into the pages. I can't wait to read more in this series and by this author in the future.

A funny and informative read
As an avid reader of historical fiction, specifically medieval times, I have so many questions. How did the people live, work and travel? What did a village or town look like? Did people have toilet paper and what did they all wear?
This book answers all these questions, and much more!
If you ever want to know more about how people lived back then, this book is for you!

I like this book a lot, you don't see many lesbian-themed YA books out there. I'm 26 but I missed out on youth fiction geared toward me as a youth. I had vampire books, that's about it. :/ anyway, pros: it was well written, truthful, and heartfelt. Cons: I did not like the Main Character's Dialogue. She sounded very juvenile for her age and spoke in a way I'd never heard myself as a 17 year old (half) tortillera. All in all I enjoyed the story, I liked the characters and I liked the ending. :)
