Athena Protocol

Description: Jessie Archer is a member of the Athena Protocol, an elite organization of female spies who enact vigilante justice around the world. Athena operatives are never supposed to shoot to kill—so when Jessie can’t stop herself from pulling the trigger, she gets kicked out of the organization, right before a huge mission to take down a human trafficker in Belgrade.   Jessie needs to right her wrong and prove herself, so she starts her own investigation into the trafficking. But going rogue means she has no one to watch her back as she delves into the horrors she uncovers. Meanwhile, her former teammates have been ordered to bring her down. Jessie must face danger from all sides if she’s to complete her mission—and survive. Review: I have always been frustrated with the James Bond and Mission Impossible movie franchises especially with their reductive treatment of women who are either the femme fatale caricuture or an "agent" who is suppose to be capable an...

The Secret

Review: On The Fence by Kasie West

Title: On The Fence  Author:Kasie  West Expected publication: July 1st 2014 by HarperTeen Genre: YA contemporary Goodreads | Amazon | ____________________________________ I am completely in love with Kasie West and her ability to write the most adorable stories. So far I have loved every single one of the books she has ever put out. So I was beyond curious to see if she would do it again, and she totally did! On The Fence delivered. It was a cute story that went beyond fluffy, summery writing but still didn't take itself too seriously. It featured West's now signature style of amazing, relatable heroines and a supporting cast that was more than just added secondary characters, to the point that you learned everyone's name and cared for their individual stories. I loved Charlie. She was the strongest of the whole book to me, just so easy to like and her point of view made the book completely captivating and hilarious. I loved the dynamics between her and ...

Waiting On Wednesday and I'm FINALLY back (:

WoW is weekly meme created by Jill at Breaking The Spine in which bloggers can share books they're excited to get soon :)       IT'S MY BLOGOVERSARY.     I have been blogging for 4 years. That's totally crazy that I have been able to keep blogging for so long despite my many school obligations.   It completely breaks my heart that it hasn't been updated as regularly as I would like because I love my blog. I love to review. And I'm infinitely grateful to all those authors who have trusted me with copies of their books for me to share my thoughts.   But I have a crazy studying schedule. And I know it will not get better, in fact it'll probably get worse but while I have a minute to be here I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE THAT HAS EVER VISITED.   So anyway. Here's my WoW pick of the week. A sweet YA contemporary that sounds just like my kind of book. The Fine Art of Pretending by Rachel Harris   According to the guys at Fairfield Aca...

Review: 17 First Kisses by Rachael Allen

Title: 17 First Kisses Author: Rachael Allen Expected publication: June 17th 2014 by HarperTeen Genre: YA Contemporary Goodreads | Amazon | _______________________________ You see the title, you see the cover and you would never think that this book is what it is. I know, I know, I shouldn't judge a book by its title or its cover but some times it cannot be helped. And actually, part of what made me pick up this book is the cute cover, I just thought it will be this cutesy, light romance and maybe a bestfriendship thrown in there too. And the first few chapters it appeared it was the case but then Wham! The story took off at neck-breaking pace while I laughed and oh-ed and ah-ed and wondered where the well my cutesy story went. It pulled the rug out from underneath my feet. It takes guts to put this kind of story out there as your debut book and I have to take my hat off to Ms. Allen. I can easily tell you that the risk paid off becaus...

Review: A Walk In The Sun by Michelle Zink

Title. A Walk In The Sun  Author. Michelle Zink Expected publication: May 3rd 2016 by HarperTeen [ goodreads ] [  amazon  ] ___________________________________________ What I loved about A Walk In The Sun is that it transported me to another place, and I don't mean only to a hard-lived, sun-kissed farm; but to the thrill of being young and in love. It's the story about a girl with the weight of the world on her shoulders. Rose's mom just died and her dad is in such a depression that she has to take over all the chores at their farm, all by herself. That's how she meets Bodhi, the recently hired hand that's going to help her run the farm this summer. And that's where the similarities with those Harlequin novels you're thinking about, end because this is not a story about the rich daughter of the boss falling for the working class guy. This is more about finding love when (and where) you didn't expect it. A Walk In The Sun did a fantastic job at portrayin...
