Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira (Review + Giveaway)

**Thank you Macmillan for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review 


It begins as an assignment for English class: Write a letter to a dead person. Laurel chooses Kurt Cobain because her sister, May, loved him. And he died young, just like May did. Soon, Laurel has a notebook full of letters to people like Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, Amelia Earhart, Heath Ledger, and more; though she never gives a single one of them to her teacher. She writes about starting high school, navigating new friendships, falling in love for the first time, learning to live with her splintering family. And, finally, about the abuse she suffered while May was supposed to be looking out for her. Only then, once Laurel has written down the truth about what happened to herself, can she truly begin to accept what happened to May. And only when Laurel has begun to see her sister as the person she was; lovely and amazing and deeply flawed; can she begin to discover her own path.


My Thoughts:


Excuse me while I wipe all these pesky tears out of my eyes after that emotional epilogue there! 

When I first saw this book in Macmillan's catalog I knew I HAD to read it. While I'm not a huge fan of PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER (the book anyways, loved the movie), which I heard this was similar to, the premise of this book won me over so I gave it a shot. I'm so glad that I did. When I first started reading I definitely saw the similarities but I got so attached to these characters so quickly and before I knew it I was majorly engrossed in this story of finding yourself, tragic loss, love, and friendship.

Laurel was such a lost person. She had little self worth and after May died she seemed to spiral more. She spent the majority of her time trying to be May, which is something that she just isn't. She made new friends and met Sky and somewhere along the way life started to chip away her defenses. She stayed very closed up about May and things that made her the way she was. The journey to getting Laurel to open up was so beautiful and so vivid. I found myself very emotional several times throughout this book.

Not only was I emotional for Laurel, but I was for Hannah and Sky. They both had their own sets of issues and I was glad to see Laurel help them with theirs as much as they helped her with hers. I think it really helped Laurel to see that she wasn't alone in having issues and in helping them she found ways to help herself.

I would definitely recommend this book to readers of YA Contemporary and I can't wait to pick up my finished copy!

Author Spotlight #3: Bethany Crandell INSIDE THE AUTHORS STUDIO

SO every month I'm planning on doing an author spotlight! Most of the authors participating will be spotlighted during the month their book releases!! YAY!! There will be a post done each week about the author or their book and most have kindly donated an awesome giveaway! 

Here is another fabulous post from Bethany, her least favorite word question definitely had me laughing! And Bethany I do a lot of my best thinking while blow drying my hair also!! I've enjoyed having you on the blog so much!! Thank you ♥

INSIDE THE AUTHORS STUDIO: A moving conversation with Bethany Crandell


james lipton photo: jameslipton james_lipton.jpg

James Lipton and I go back. Way back. The details of our meeting are hazy, and only vaguely remembered through ill-focused photographs and the black dagger tattoo on my left shoulder blade, but trust me when I tell you that James and I are bros. #goodlikethat

Because we’re so tight, (and because I fear retaliation from his mafia connections. Horse heads don’t make good bed mates), I knew that declining his request for an interview wasn’t an option. So, last month I flew out to New York’s Pace University campus, and joined my old friend for an hour long chat about me and my life--an honor he typically reserves only for the finest actors in the business.

Just like the celebrities James interviews, the first forty-five minutes of my interview were a yawn-inducing trip down memory lane. But, as expected, things got interesting when we dove into the ten questions that have made him an interviewing legend.

Here’s how it went down:

James: What is your favorite word?
Bethany: Ridiculous

James: What is your least favorite word?
Bethany: *cringes* There are several, but since most are body parts (and this is a PG-rated blog) I’ll just include this one: MOIST.

James: What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
Bethany: Confidence. Whether in one’s work, faith, relationships, abilities…there’s nothing more inspiring (or hawt!) than confidence.

James: What turns you off?
Bethany: Braggarts

James: What is your favorite curse word?
Bethany: All of them. Independent from each other or all mashed up. It’s all good--so long as my kids don’t hear.

James: What sound or noise do you love?
Bethany: The sound of my hair dryer at work. My brain hamster is easily motivated by all of that white noise. My best plotting takes place beneath the 1875 watts of my ceramic Revlon Ionic Pro.

James: What sound or noise do you hate?
Bethany: Babies crying

James: What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Bethany: I’d love to be a singer, though doubt my audience would appreciate it.

JAMES: What profession would you not like to do?
Bethany: Anything that has to do with math or exact measurements. Or something that requires the use of a plunger.

James: If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
Bethany: You did good, kid.

Don't Look Back by Jennifer L Armentrout (Review + Giveaway)

**Thank you Cassie and Disney Hyperion for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review



Samantha is a stranger in her own life. Until the night she disappeared with her best friend, Cassie, everyone said Sam had it all-popularity, wealth, and a dream boyfriend. 

Sam has resurfaced, but she has no recollection of who she was or what happened to her that night. As she tries to piece together her life from before, she realizes it's one she no longer wants any part of. The old Sam took "mean girl" to a whole new level, and it's clear she and Cassie were more like best enemies. Sam is pretty sure that losing her memories is like winning the lottery. She's getting a second chance at being a better daughter, sister, and friend, and she's falling hard for Carson Ortiz, a boy who has always looked out for her-even if the old Sam treated him like trash. 

But Cassie is still missing, and the facts about what happened to her that night isn't just buried deep inside of Sam's memory-someone else knows, someone who wants to make sure Sam stays quiet. All Sam wants is the truth, and if she can unlock her clouded memories of that fateful night, she can finally move on. But what if not remembering is the only thing keeping Sam alive?



My Thoughts:

This is easily one of my favorite books of 2014, if not my favorite. This was the first book I picked up this year (at the time) that I literally could not put it down. I was reading it in the car to and from places (I wasn't driving) and in between everything I was doing. (By the way it is possible to read while cooking dinner.) 

As soon as Samantha was found walking down that road and she had no clue who she was I was hooked. I wanted to know her story, what happened, and where Cassie was. I was sure guessing until the very end. I had my theories the entire book, but nothing that I was ever SURE about. I would think this sounded like a solid theory, but then something would happen that would totally throw that theory away. It's safe to say when I found out what really happened I was in a bit of a state of shock. I even had moments where I had to just hope with everything I had that it wasn't the one person I was hoping it wouldn't be. 

The characters in this story really made it even better. Samantha was my absolute favorite, with Carson being a close second. I loved that Samantha got a chance to have a "do-over" in life. She got to see how she was and she decided to be who she wanted to be for a change and it was fabulous to see her putting some people in their places. Carson was such a supportive friend and things took a turn with him that made me smile then freak the crap out! (I can't go to in detail with him, I think it would be kind of spoilery.)I also loved the dynamic between Samantha and her brother, they had a chance to re-do their relationship too and I enjoyed seeing them grow close.

DON'T LOOK BACK definitely took me on an emotional rollercoaster. I was happy, sad, frustrated, nervous, wanting to throw all the things, then happy again. I would definitely recommend buying this and planning a day of absolutely nothing so you can read this book, because I promise you won't want to put it down!

Author Spotlight #3: Bethany Crandell Would You Rather?

SO every month I'm planning on doing an author spotlight! Most of the authors participating will be spotlighted during the month their book releases!! YAY!! There will be a post done each week about the author or their book and most have kindly donated an awesome giveaway! 

I'm absolutely over the moon about sharing this guest post that Bethany did with you guys! It is HILARIOUS and I can see where all the humor from SUMMER ON THE SHORT BUS comes from for sure! Thanks so much for sharing this Bethany, and everyone prepare for laughter!!!

Would You Rather?

Experts say that the best “family time” happens around a dinner table—and I couldn’t agree more. Especially if you’re playing a cut-throat game of ‘Would you Rather’ like my family and I do. The premise is simple enough: pose two scenarios and see which one the other player chooses. The hard part is coming up with situations so disgusting/embarrassing/frustrating that your opponent winces at the thought of actually making a decision. It’s in that moment that quality family time sets in.

Over the years, I’ve learned a ton of useless valuable information about my family members thanks to this torturous little game. For example, my eleven year-old daughter would rather go to school naked than be stung by a bee, and my husband would rather have his eyebrows shaved permanently than eat a can of peas every day. Freaks?! YES. Yes, they are. But it’s so fun watching them consider the possibilities that I’m not even bothered by the fact I live with these people.

So, in an effort to give you some highly sought after insight into my warped brain, some of my best writer pals asked me some Would You Rathers. Here’s what I had to say…

Would you rather lick a snail or moon your boss? Ugh. *cringes* Lick a snail. My boss is a very cool guy (scientist/attorney/beer maker) and while I know he’d never speak of the incident, I am very aware that he’d never forget it. A ghastly white, full moon is not the impression I want to leave on anyone.

Would you rather watch as your mother/grandmother/father read a steamy love scene you’ve written, or walk a city block completely nude?  Oh my god! That’s not a cool!! Um…geesh. Probably the steamy love scene. I can always blame my older sisters for corrupting me in my youth.

Would you rather meet your favorite actor in person once but not be allowed to speak, or have a long distance correspondence by letter for one full year but never meet them? Definitely the second situation.  I’m so much more comfortable with words than I am one-on-one with someone (hence the whole writing thing). As much as I’d love to meet Bradley Cooper in person, I fear that my behavior upon doing so would be so inappropriate I’d get thrown into jail so…yeah, option 2 is the safer choice.

Would you rather be locked in a room full of crickets for twenty-four hours or eat a gallon of straight honey? Oh…oh! *flails* Um…geez. Despite my main character’s name, I despise Crickets. I mean, I HATE THEM! Our neighborhood has an ungodly amount of cricket-life in the summer, and I’ve encountered too many of these suckers in the dark, or when I am in the shower and feel something tickle my foot. *cringes* #truestory But straight honey turns my tummy on its head—being nauseous is the worst feeling in the world. So…oh my gawd…I guess the crickets. (There’s no rule that says I can’t smack them all with my shoe, right?!)

Would you rather have a single best seller that leads to a hit movie worth millions, or a string of books that don’t bring much financial wealth, but make you just as well known? SHOW ME THE MONEY! I wish I was cool enough to say it’s just about expressing myself through the written word—finances be damned--but, no way! I dream of writing screenplays one day, and the thought of one of my stories getting turned into a film is way too much to pass up.

Gale or Peeta? *snickers while her cheeks flood with warmth* BAKERY BOY! Yes, I’m aware that Gale is hawt (esp. when he speaks in the accent God gave him!) but Peeta is so endearing and loyal I can’t say no to him. (I meant that in as non-Labrador Retriever way as possible)

Would you rather fart popcorn or have your past and future web browsing history available to everyone? Bwa, ha, ha! As much as I love popcorn *coughs*, I’d have to go with the web history. It’s true I’ve looked up some ridiculous crap in my day (“Zac Efron +shirtless” perhaps) but I’ve never looked up anything that will land me in jail. At least, not under current law.

See how fun that was?!



Now, one for you:  Would you rather buy my book or have ninjas attack you in your sleep and tickle you until you wet the bed?

Well buy your book of course ;-) Guys, what say you??

Make sure to check out Bethany's post from last week, Why YA?

Far From You by Tess Sharpe (Review + Giveaway)

**Thank you Cassie at Disney Hyperion for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review



Sophie Winters nearly died. Twice.

The first time, she's fourteen, and escapes a near-fatal car accident with scars, a bum leg, and an addiction to Oxy that'll take years to kick.

The second time, she's seventeen, and it's no accident. Sophie and her best friend Mina are confronted by a masked man in the woods. Sophie survives, but Mina is not so lucky. When the cops deem Mina's murder a drug deal gone wrong, casting partial blame on Sophie, no one will believe the truth: Sophie has been clean for months, and it was Mina who led her into the woods that night for a meeting shrouded in mystery.

After a forced stint in rehab, Sophie returns home to a chilly new reality. Mina's brother won't speak to her, her parents fear she'll relapse, old friends have become enemies, and Sophie has to learn how to live without her other half. To make matters worse, no one is looking in the right places and Sophie must search for Mina's murderer on her own. But with every step, Sophie comes closer to revealing all: about herself, about Mina and about the secret they shared.



My Thoughts:

This book touches SOOOO many deep issues and I absolutely love it. It was honest and real and dug deep into things that teens truly do have to deal with and that makes me love this book even more. 

FAR FROM YOU brought up issues with drug addiction, sexuality, and being yourself. Sophie struggled with a drug addiction and when her best friend dies everyone thinks it is because of this drug addiction. Sophie feels so alone in trying to find Mina's killer and what actually happened to her that night. 

I like how this book does the"then and now" format through out. I really enjoyed being able to get a real feel of Sophie and Mina's relationship, and even Sophie and Adam's relationship, before Mina died. I thought the book did all their relationships a lot of justice on being realistic and I hope to see this diversity more. 

I love Sophie. She fought so hard no matter what anyone said the whole way through to find out what really happened to Mina. She would not give up no matter how many walls she hit and even when she came face to face with the killer she fought her hardest to bring the killer down so everyone would know what truly happened to Mina. 

Sophie's aunt just so happened to be incredible also. She supported Sophie and I think gave her to extra boost she needed sometimes to keep pushing through.Sophie's parents kind of irritated me but at the same time I couldn't fault them for reacting the way that they did. I mean their daughter was a drug addict, the evidence was there....I could understand the things they did but knowing the truth I still got irritated with them. 

Adam, Mina's brother, is such a great character. I like how even though their was obvious attraction between the two that this story didn't become about them. The fact that it was solely a story about Sophie, and Sophie and Mina made it what it was.....wonderful. 

This book is one of my favorites of 2014 and I urge anyone and everyone to pick it up! You will not be disappointed.

My Not So Super Sweet Life by Rachel Harris Review + Giveaway

**Thank you EntangledTeen for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Well, and the stalkerazzi.

My Thoughts:

Y'all I don't know if you have ever read anything by Rachel Harris, but seriously she is like a writing goddess. There has not been on book of hers that has not left me with this HUGE, goofy grin on my face at the end, and I'm here to tell you that MNSSSL was no different. I have followed Cat through her journey in MY SUPER SWEET SIXTEENTH CENTURY and A TALE OF TWO CENTURIES, this book ended her journey so fantabulous! 

Lets start with the feels!!!! Oh there were SO SO many feels! Lucas happened to be the main cause of them. I have always been a huge fan of Lorenzo (from MSSSC), but sorry Lucas just pushed Lorenzo down a margin for me. I mean EIGHT-PETAL ROSE!!!!!! Need I say more ladies?? Ooohhh OR the Princess Diaries moment.....I mean where was this guy when I was 16/17??? Even looking past all the swoony things he did for Cat the fact of how he was there for her and fights so hard for her through out the entire book, you just can't not love this guy! 

Oh and speaking of swoony guys, ladies Austin Michaels does make a few appearances....and I mean he's Austin....there's all sorts of grinning at your eReader and your significant other looking at you like you have lost your dang mind....but any who ;-) 

Besides all the swoony, guy driven feels, we get to see Cat really open up in this book and go through some heavy emotional stuff, and I would be lying if I didn't tell you that I got teary eyed a few times, and even shed a tear or two over some scenes. I just can't help but feel like this stuff is happening to my best friend with the way Harris' writing completely draws me into this world, I seriously just can't! 

I enjoyed really getting to see more interaction with Cat and Jenna in this book also. There are just some really awesome moments between these two that I think a lot of people will really be able to relate to. 

AND let's get back to the guys for a moment....because I mean....RANSOM!!!!!! I've already told Rachel, and I will tell you all I NEED A BOOK ABOUT THIS GUY LIKE I NEED THE AIR I BREATHE!!!! I mean he walks around in all his "I'm a guitarist hottness, but totally have a soft side" and and and YUM! Now y'all don't know Ransom yet, but you will, and you will be demanding the same, I swear it!!!

As for Reyna, I hope to see her again someday, I really do. She came meddling in a lot of people's lives and I enjoyed every second of it!

Now if you aren't sure what I'm trying to say in this super sporadic gushy review.....it's this: YOU SHOULD SERIOUSLY READ THIS BOOK!!!!!

Summer on the Short Bus by Bethany Crandell Review + Giveaway

**Thank you Running Press Kids and Bethany for providing me with an ARC in exchange for a honest review.


Spoiled, Versace-clad Cricket Montgomery has seventeen years of pampering under her belt. So when her father decides to ship her off to a summer camp for disabled teens to help her learn some accountability, Cricket resigns herself to three weeks of handicapped hell. 

Her sentence takes a bearable turn as she discovers the humor and likeability of the campers and grows close to fellow counselors. Now, if she can just convince a certain Zac Efron look-alike with amazing blue eyes that she finally realizes there's life after Gucci, this summer could turn out to be the best she's ever had.

Summer on the Short Bus is a very non-P.C., contemporary YA with a lot of attitude, tons of laughs, and a little life lesson along the way.



My Thoughts:

This book was full of many humorous, grin worthy moments, swoony guys, snark, and great friendships. Mainly though, this book was filled with a story of self-growth and the main character, Cricket, getting to know herself and working through some things to make her become the person she truly wanted to be.

When Cricket first showed up to camp, I won't lie, some of the things she said and did made me CRINGE! I never had a time that I didn't like her, because she is one of those characters that even though she had her flaws I could tell that if she would just work out some of her internal stuff I would love her. (Plus her snark....I mean who doesn't love a good snarky character?) I did indeed grow to love Cricket and I loved being able to take this journey with her to find her self-worth and who she wanted to be. 

One of my favorite parts of the books were the camp and the campers. I loved the fact that there was this new world in this book that you really don't find often in YA. It was great diversity to show different characters like this and Claire and Meredith made me grin SO hard!!! I think my favorite scenes actually were when they were included, they just brought so much to the story. 

Quinn, Quinn, Quinn....I really did adore this kid. He was a really sweet guy and had a really good head on his shoulder. (His hottness level...well Zac Efron isn't really my cup of tea, so I just pictured someone else LOL) I assumed from the beginning something would go on between him and Cricket and I was glad that it did. Cricket needed that good influence in her life and I'm glad she got it. I do wish though that she would have started wanting to change her ways on her own and not so much from his influence, but I think the main part of her change did eventually come from her. 

The story that involved Rainbow and Cricket's dad took a new spin on the story that I really enjoyed. I liked finding out what Cricket's main issues were with life and seeing them get hashed out. I would love to know what happens between Rainbow and Cricket, and even Quinn and Cricket after this story ended. I would definitely recommend this adorable book to any YA Contemporary fan! I hope to see more from Bethany soon.
