"Just One Wish" by Janette Rallison

My Book Summary : The ultimate fantasy ... you meet a movie/TV star and they fall in love with you right away ... that's what happens in this sweet, funny, and touching story.

Annika would do just about anything for her little brother Jeremy, more so now then ever since her family found out that he has cancer. Nothing is off limits to make him happy. So, when she rushes to Toys "R" Us with her best friend Madison during the day after Thanksgiving sale for a Teen Robin Hood action figure for Jeremy, since it's all he seems to talk about as of late, she thinks no problem. Even when it comes down to dealing with a wormy older guy who just happens to be hording all of the Robin Hood figurines, no big deal.

But when she makes up this story for Jeremy that she received three wishes from a genie a while back, she has two wishes left, and she would like to give those two wishes to him ... things don't go as planned. She told him that one of the wishes would be for him to come out of his upcoming surgery with flying colors and the other one could be for anything he wanted. Well she assumed he would ask for that specific figurine but instead Jeremy wishes to have Robin Hood meet him and teach him more about archery! Thankfully when Annika told Jeremy that some wishes take a while to fulfill he believed her. Now the problem is how in the world is she going to get Steve Raleigh, the actor who portrays Teen Robin Hood, to come and visit Jeremy before his surgery in a week?

And she'll stop at nothing to make this happen ...

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars!! This was a great book!!! I loved it! The characters were portrayed wonderfully! I loved the banter between Steve and Annika! And Oh My God the stuff she could come up with at the drop of a hat! My only wish was that it was longer!!

Book Teaser(s) :

I bent down to have a one-on-one with Herman.
"Look, just be a good snake for the day and then we'll take you back to the pet store, okay?" I took the lid off and tried to remember how the lady at the pet store had picked him up. Was it headfirst or by the middle? I reached in and lifted him out of the cage. He at once wrapped himself around my arm, which I hoped was not a sign he was trying to eat me. ~ within Chapter 6

Feasted On: Something Like Fate by Susane Colasanti

Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 358 KB | Release Date: May 2010 | Publisher: Viking

"Something Like Fate" by Susane Colasanti

My Book Summary : Lani and Erin have been best friends for years, but what really bonds them together is the car accident that they were in when they were younger. They think that they'll be best friends forever and nothing will bring them apart...

... However, fate has a way of changing things.

Fate is something that both Lani and Erin are fascinated with, so, over the past year they have been looking into ways to find out what the things going on around them mean (i.e. like palm readings, dream analyzation, etc.). Lani’s main thing is she hates the unknown, so anyway for her to be able to know what is coming along before it happens then all the better.

Everything seems fine, then little things start changing between them. Like Lani starts feeling less connected with their group of friends, so she stops hanging out with everyone except Erin. Or they start finding different things interesting and Lani starts making friends with people whom Erin wouldn’t associate with.

As things go on, Erin starts talking about her latest crush, Jason, and Lani tells her to go for it since she knows who Jason is but has never met him personally and thinks that, why not? Well after a while, Erin asks Lani and their friend Blake to have dinner with Jason and her so they can meet him. After that first meeting, Blake tells Lani he thinks there is a connection between Jason and her. Lani denies it since Blake must be seeing things, but after the first, few encounters between Jason and Lani it becomes obvious that they have a LOT in common. However, Lani would NEVER come between her best friend and her best friend’s boyfriend, so she becomes a friends with Jason but that’s all it is. At least until he brakes up with Erin ...

What will happen between Erin & Lani when Erin finds out about Lani’s relationship with Jason? Will there friendship pull trough this situation? Will Jason & Lani be able to deal with the consequences once everything comes out?

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars!! This is a detailed story about friendship, how far you would go to pay back someone you feel indebted to, and the happenings of teenage romance. Lani has all the makings of a great character, she sticks up for what she believes in, she puts others way before herself, and she is good-natured all around. Plus it doesn’t hurt that she is just so sweet! For those of you who have read books by Susane Colasanti before then I HIGHLY recommend this book! It has become one of my fave books from her!

Book Teaser(s) :

Jason's like, "Where's Blake?"
"He's not as fascinated by kites like I am."
Jason does this contemplative nodding thing I've noticed before. Kind of like, Someone's not fascinated with kites. Wild. "So...he's at home, or...?"
"I guess. I don't know."
Jason drinks his water. "It's cool how you're not one of those couples that has to do everything together. You know?"
Oh my god. Jason thinks Blake is my boyfriend? Where did he get that? ~ within Chapter 10

"The expected is just the beginning. The unexpected is what changes our lives." -Meredith Gray ~ within part three September-October

Feasted On: The Iron Fey Series, Novella 1

Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 211 KB | Release Date: June 2010 | Publisher: Harlequin Teen

"Winter's Passage" [The Iron Fey Series, Novella 1] by Julie Kagawa

My Book Summary : After rescuing her little brother Ethan from the Iron King's clinches, Meghan is off on a new adventure, but an adventure that she would rather not complete. The only thing that makes her go along with Prince Ash, of the Winter Court, back to his court is the sense of duty and the fact that she made a contract with him about doing so. However, as they go on they find they have a hunter after them, that will try to get to them at all costs....

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars! It was a great interluding book to build up to what will happen in the "The Iron Daughter"! Cute and sweet. Makes you wonder what will happen once they arrive at the Winter Court, will Ash still protect her or will he just allow whatever the queen plans to have happen, happen?

My Previous Review(s) for this Series : Book 1

Book Teaser :

"The cold has her." Grimalkin's voice seemed to come from far away. "She is already icing over. If you do not get her up now, she will die."
My eyelids were slipping shut, even though I tried keeping them open. If they closed, they would freeze and stay shut forever. I tried using my fingers to pry them open by force, but a layer of ice now covered my hands and I couldn't feel them anymore. ~ within Chapter 3

Made the Grade: The Highlander Series, Book 7

Format: Paperback | Pages: 395 | Release Date: June 2006 | Publisher: Dell Books

"Spell of the Highlander" [The Highlander Series, Book 7] by Karen Marie Moning

My Book Summary : Who knew that helping her boss, while he was in the hospital, would change Jessica's life forever ....

All she had to do was sign for a package that was being delivered late at night at the university she worked for and the item needed just be delivered and locked up in her boss’s office, then she could go. However, fate stepped in instead ...

What she didn't know at the time was that inside the mirror lived a ninth century Highland Warrior, named Cian, who would do anything to get out of there and the only thing he needed was her. The only problem was would she really believe what she was seeing before the person who was after the mirror came to get it and killed her in the process. So, now this Highlander offers her his protection if she offers hers in return.

Will Jessi be able to accept the impossible and while chaos happens in the process still be able to not loose her heart to this hunk of a man ...

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars. Not as good of storyline as I had hoped. However, the characters were cute and I couldn't get enough of them. I love the world that Ms. Moning has come up with for this series and her Fever series, especially how they both intertwine together! In this book you'll learn more background information that you didn't know about if you've only read the Fever series, so I could recommend reading this book just for that alone! I can't wait to see what will be in store next!

Book Teaser :

"Well, if he's a Druid-turned-dark-sorcerer and you're just a Druid, and a Druid-turned-dark-sorcerer is so much more powerful, then just how do you plan to defeat---oh! Crimeny! Shit!"
Understanding belatedly dawning, she backpedaled away from him, butting up against the rain-slicked side of the car parked parallel to hers. "I can be so dense sometimes," she breathed. "Because you're one of the bad guys, too, aren't you? You turned dark sorcerer, too, didn't you? It's the only way it makes sense."
His whisky eyes narrowed. "Get in the car, Jessica," he said softly. ~ within Chapter 12

Made the Grade: Voices of Dragons by Carrie Vaughn

Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 341 KB | Release Date: March 2010 | Publisher: HarperCollins

"Voices of Dragons" [Voices of Dragons Series, Book 1] by Carrie Vaughn

My Book Summary : Have you ever wondered what it would be like if dragons lived among us? Well, for Kay that is her reality. However, in recent years humans and dragons have been isolated from each other and stayed out of each other's territories for the past sixty years because of the treaty that was signed. The only problem with that is now each side doesn't know a thing about the other, they just base what they know on fear and legion which make it so each side lives in fear of what the other might do.

For Kay, she has grown up right in the middle of it. As she lives in Silver River, Montana a town that is the closest to the border of the dragon territory in America. Also, with a father who's the sheriff of the town and a mother who works for border control, Kay knows this area really well, which doesn't hurt when she likes to seek adventure type of activities (i.e. free-climbing on the mountains the border is on).

The story starts off when Kay is partaking in one of these types of activities, she decides to free-climb in an area on the border that she knows her parents (or anyone working with them) won't be looking at. However, once she gets down and decides to wash her hands off in the river, then slips, and falls into that river taking her over the border into dragon territory .... and her life really gets adventurous!

After being in the water for a while unable to get herself out, something saves her .... a young dragon named Artegal. Artegal wants to know/learn more about humans and just really wants to talk to someone, and is happy when Kay agrees to come back to do so. Which is how they grow to become friends, but they keep it a secret since the treaty states that once one from the other side crosses the border an all out war can happen.

Nevertheless, after a couple of months the reality of their friendship comes into play when the military on the human-side starts testing the border and the dragons’ patience. Will they be able to stay friends when they are supposed to be enemies? Or maybe will their friendship show that both sides are able to live in peace once and for all?

My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. Not as good as I had hoped. I mean it was cute, and a VERY touching story about friendship and love. And for a good portion of the book I cried like a baby. However, I just think it could have been better. It's like Romeo & Juliet only between friends ....

Book Teaser :

"We have stories," the dragon said. "Of people with swords. They hunt us down. Seek us out. Wicked deeds."
Kay wondered what stories the dragons told about human beings. Saint George--Silver River High's mascot was Saint George--must be like the devil to them.
"Foolish, maybe," he said. "But I want to see for myself. To understand. We used to talk to people. Maybe we should again." ~ within Chapter 3

Feasted On: Vampire Academy Series, Book 5

Format: Hardcover | Pages: 489 | Release Date: May 2010 | Publisher: Penguin/Razorbill Books

"Spirit Bound" [Vampire Academy Series, Book 5] by Richelle Mead

My Book Summary : This story leads off with Rose back at St. Vladimir's with Lissa and her friends getting ready for their last few days of school. With those last few days come the tests to see if she'll be able to become an official guardian. After she does go through the course, came the celebration of it all and then the reality that she is now on her own, officially.

Afterwards, Rose heads to the Royal Court, along with Lissa, Christian, and the rest of her guardian graduating class. However, once there Rose plans on going through with finding a way to save Dimitri (a way that will turn him back from being a Strigoi), but in doing so she needs to find her source which would be Victor Dashkov's half-brother Robert who supposedly had already turned a Strigoi back before. The problem is to do all of that she needs to get to Victor first who just happens to be in a maximum security prison for all of his crimes, among his crimes was trying to control and hurt Lissa, which happened in "Vampire Academy" (Book 1).

Once they return back to Court, Rose gets in trouble for braking them out and is set into a lot of busy work to keep her away from her friends as punishment. But when Lissa goes away to check out the college she plans to attend during her birthday, Dimitri catches up with her and uses her as bait to get to Rose.

Then all hell brakes loose .....

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars!! This book leaves you with more questions then answers, but it was a great lead up story to what will be the final book in this series "Last Sacrifice." It was heartfelt, funny, intriguing, suspicious, and all-around entertaining! The characters got more developed in this book, with major twists that you don't see coming. I hope that things will turn out well during the last book and answer all of my questions .... I can't wait to find out!

Book Teaser :

His eyes widened, focusing on something just behind Lissa. At that same moment, a hand grabbed Lissa's shoulder and whipped her around. This is it, a small voice inside her whispered. This is where I die.
Then, she understood Christian's astonishment.
She was facing Dimitri. ~ within Chapter 14

My Musings :

• Adrian is so sweet, I hope things work out for him.
• With that being said ... I still love Rose & Dimitri as a couple and I hope they are able to work out their "issues" and get back together.
• I wonder how Abe is going to help Rose out of this mess she's in? Any suggestions?
• Who do you think the Queen was talking about in her note that Ambrose gave Rose?
  • I think they might be talking about Jill. However, it could be someone new ...
• Do you remember in the last book, "Blood Promise," how Avery put Rose into that space inside her head, where she was at a home and Dimitri was there and everything was okay, only it was a lie? Well have you ever thought that that could have been the actual future of events to come, instead of some dream that Avery put together. I mean I know it's a long shot, but since we don't really know everything that spirit users can do ... you just never know. So, that's one thing I'm hoping for at least.
