More Than This (More #1) by Jay McLean

More Than ThisThank goodness I came across this story in my sister's nook because this has been added as one of my TOP faves! :D Since the first chapter of the book it quickly hooked me in that I had to force myself to sleep at 4am in the morning!

"I like you. A lot. So much more than a lot"


I LOVE <3 Jake and Mikayla! This is their story and one that will forever be remembered. It all started one night...Prom night to be exact. The intensity and emotions that was written since the start and throughout the book was nonstop surprising! The author had a way with words. Whatever feelings she wanted you to feel she knew how to say it. Whatever scene she wanted to show you she knew how to tell it. The snippets of banter between the different relationship connections made the story more relatable and enjoyable to read.

Each person mentioned in the first book will have some impact in the story/series. "More Than This" is where we will first meet Logan, Cameron, and Lucy just to name a few. This is especially important because when you read the More Series you must read the books in order. ;)

I could go on and on on why its a MUST READ but the book experience will be so much better with no specific spoilers and details from my part. ;) WOW! Is all I have to say.

What are you waiting for? Read it today! :) Buy "More Than This" on Amazon

Review: The Sea of Tranquility

The Sea of Tranquility
The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This book looks at life and death in a unique way and the emotions felt while reading was on a whole other level. Everyone that Josh has loved he loses. Nastya was dead for a brief moment due to a traumatic event where she looses everything she had going in her life. Both parties find a way to deal with the life given to them and then they cross paths one day and find comfort in each other's presence.

The only comment I have to make is that I was expecting a little more revenge/payback for Nastya but overall it was a good book that I enjoyed.

Review: More Than Him

More Than Him
More Than Him by Jay McLean
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Yup, Jay McClean does it again! "More than Her" (More #2) left us with a major cliffhanger and this is the the continuation of Logan and Amanda's story. The ups and downs, back and forths, twists, and turns in this story for these two was well written and had me feeling so many emotions not just this book but throughout the series. Definitely another MUST READ! ;)

Freaking AMAZING! :) I thought Jake and Mikayla story in "More Than This" (More #1) was something but DAMN Logan and Amanda's story was just as intense and emotional maybe even more because of their back history not with each other but within themselves too. Thinking about it just gives me the chills and warm and fuzzies all over. Needless to say this is a MUST READ and must be read 2nd in the More Than Series. ;)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This was such a cute read! Love can be found in the least likely of places and no matter how you found that special someone...moments shared will be with you forever. This story made you think about how life is precious and regardless of time falling in love can happen to anyone. It is something worth experiencing and cherishing. :)

Review: The Redemption of Callie & Kayden

The Redemption of Callie & Kayden
The Redemption of Callie & Kayden by Jessica Sorensen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


The story continues of Callie and Kayden where book one left us with a major cliffy. Overcoming their past and moving forward together is a struggle for these two and along with their best friends, Seth and Luke by their side...anything is possible.

When I first read this book I was at a lost how the ended was rushed and felt incomplete and had left me wondering "WTF?!? That's it?!? I need more!" Luckily, shortly after reading I found out there will be another book to their story: "The Resolution of Callie & Kayden!" Thank goodness!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Whoa!?! What?!?! The story of Callie and Kayden had sooo many OMFG scenes that it kept my mind reeling of what was happening throughout the book. The traumatic experience and struggles that the both of them went through was heartbreaking and devastating to say the least. The way they were with each other was encouraging and that anything was possible...and then there was the cliffhanger. :/ SMH.

Review: Divergent

Divergent
Divergent by Veronica Roth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I am soooo glad that I finally gave in and read this book. It is typically not a type of book I am used to reading and it took a free book from the BD2 Tent City Event & Premiere, highly praise rants, and a look into the trailer to read the story. It is not just the love story between Tris and Four that was forming that got me curious about the story but also the purpose and reasoning on living the faction society that makes this book distinctive in my eyes. For once there is no love triangle entailed but rather the need to survive in order to make it. Without a doubt a MUST READ and if you already seen the movie nothing compares to the original version of the story! ;) Check it out!
