Wide Spaces by Shelly Crane Book Review!

Wide Spaces by Shelly Crane is a novella that takes place after Wide Awake. I mention in my past reviews that I love Shelly Crane's books and this one is no exception.

Warning: Spoilers!

This novella Is narrated by both Emma and Mason's POV. Mason's POV is awesome. There's is also some really sweet Mason and Emma moments that made me love them more then I originally did. Mason still blames himself for what happened to his mother, and he is able to move on when she tells him that she trusted him and that it wasn't his fault.

Emma gets stranded in a blizzard, and Mason, being the awesome man he is, saves her just in nick of time. And it ended with Emma's and Mason's wedding and honeymoon. 

And the part that really made me happy was that Mason's brother Milo came to their wedding! For some reason it made very happy. In Wide Awake we didn't know a lot about Milo except that he hates Mason and blames him for what happened to their mom, so to see him at the wedding kind of showed that he still loved his brother.

All in all, this novella was awesome, but let's be real, anything Shelly Crane writes is awesome. 

Into the Still Blue

Into the Still Blue is the third and last book in the Under the Never Sky trilogy by Veonica Rossi.

Spoilers!!! Spoilers!!!! Spoilers!!!

In this book Aria, Perry, and their friends are finally going to find the Still Blu, a place with no Aether storms. 

I love Aria and Perry. This book gives me Perria feels! I ship it hard! Perry and Aria are awesome lead characters.

I love Roar, and I still wish that Liv was alive so she and Roar could be together. I love Talon! I love the part when Perry, Aria, and Talon all fell asleep together. That part was so sweet!

I love the characters in this book. I didn't like Soren for most of the book. He so rude for a good chunk of this book, and I didn't like it at all. But near the end I thought he was kind of okay. I liked Brook more in this book. It seems like Brooke and Soren get together in the end.

I don't really like that Cinder had to die. Ever since book two I loved Cinder and Perry's friendship. And then this happened. I didn't cry when he died or anything, but I wanted him to live.

When everyone thought that Perry was dead, I went on the internet to find out if Perry lived. Ever since I read Allegiant I've been wary of book endings. But when I got to the part when you know that Perry is alive, I dropped to my knees and said "YES!!!!!!"

And we finally find out who Aria's dad is. I like this plot twist actually. I like her dad at the end of the book, I think. (And sorry, I can't remember his name.)

I love how this book ended (even though I wish Liv and Cinder had lived). It left me wanting more, but there's not going be anymore books in this series.

The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan Book Review!

I'M FINALLY GOING TO REVIEW THE MARK OF ATHENA!!!! The Mark of Athena is the third book in the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan, and is my favorite book in the series.

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!

The book takes place immediately after The Son of Neptune. The Greek demigods try to form an alliance with the Roman demigods. but it does't work out as planed. The seven demigods of the prophecy (Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Frank, and Hazel) have to go to Rome to defeat the giants there, and Annabeth has a quest of her own and has to follow the Mark of Athena.

I love that all seven main characters are finally together!!! I love how everyone takes to each other. Frank and Leo are constantly fighting, Percy and Jason have a bromance and a little bit of rivalry going on, and Hazel is confused about how she feels about Leo (not romantically).

This book gave my a lot of Percabeth and Jasper feels. I love Percy and Annabeth's moments, and Jason and Piper are cute.

I love Leo, and Frank, and Hazel as well. Leo blames himself for blowing up New Rome. He also blames himself for Percy and Annabeth falling into Tartarus, And the whole thing with Nemesis made me mad. I wanted to punch Nemesis for calling Leo a seventh wheel! Did anyone feel this way or is it just me?

Remember in The Light Thief when Percy, Annabeth, and Grover almost fell into Tartarus? Well, in this book, that takes place five years after TLT, Percy and Annabeth fell into Tartarus. That's just cruel, Rick Riordan!

And Percy and Annabeth met Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Pack. Why do I find that part so funny?

I have a lot of favorite parts. I love when Annabeth and Percy kiss and then she judo flips him. And when Percy scared the dolphin men away with Diet Coke; the part has so hilarious!

I love this book and the characters. I highly recommend it.

Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi Book Review!

Through the Ever Night is the second book in the Under the Never Sky trilogy by Veronica Rossi. 

As always, there will be spoilers!

Aria and Perry are reunited! But when they return to the Tides everyone hates Aria because shes a Dweller. Aria and Roar leave the Tides to try to find Liv.

The book start where Under the Never Sky left off. Perry and Aria are reunited, but almost everyone at the Tides don't seem to ship it. I liked Brooke a lot less in this book. She keeps being rude to Aria. Brooke could have handled the situation a whole lot better.

I wish Aria and Roar didn't leave, that was frustrating, but I do love their friendship. I don't like Kiera and it looks like I had good reason to. The whole time Perry and Kiera were alone I was like "KIERA STAY AWAY FROM PERRY!!!!!"  

I love Roar and Liv together, but Veronica Rossi kind of just threw that OTP out the window (thanks for that Veronica Rossi). But I'm so glad that we got to see them together even though it was for like a second.

I love Cinder, and Talon, and I also like Reef, and most of the other people of the Tides. But our heroes have a new enemy to worry about: Sable.

I really did like this book. It's not my favorite in the trilogy, but I like it all the same.

Kilmeny of the Orchard by L. M. Montgomery Book Review!

I'm now going to review Kilmeny of the Orchard by L. M. Montgomery. I love this book! Montgomery captured my heart yet again.

The book starts with Eric who just graduated college and teaches at a school in Lindsay in Prince Edward Island. When he's walking through an orchard he meets Kilmeny Gordon, who is mute and plays the violin.

Spoilers! 

I love this book! Compared to L. M. Montgomery's other books like Anne of Green Gables, this book is short (I own the ebook version and it was a hundred and three pages), but that didn't bother me. Would I like the book to be longer? Yeah, I guess. Do I wish Montgomery wrote a sequel? Heck yes! But I love this book all the same.

In my past reviews its kind of obvious that I'm a true romantic. As much as I love Anne and Gilbert from Anne of Green gables, I love Eric and Kilmeny's romance. Their love story is not an uncommon one, but it's so sweet. 

There is kind of a love triangle (is it still a love triangle if the was never girl in love with the other guy?), but this doesn't bother because we really don't see a lot of Neil in the book.

Another thing I love about L. M. Montgomery books is Prince Edward Island. She describes so beautifully. I really want to go there now! I think Montgomery was born on PEI. I think all her book take place on the island too.

I also really like the writing style. The wording is very old fashioned (since the book came out over a hundred years ago that's not surprising), and the author wrote that made it sound poetic and beautiful, or at least I think so.

I love this book. And it's definitely something I'll reread and reread.

Wide Awake by Shelly Crane Book Review!

In case you couldn't tell I am a huge Shelly Crane fan. This time I'm reviewing a book in one of her other series: Wide Awake.

SPOILER ALERT!!! 

Emma wakes up from six month coma and she doesn't remember anything of her life. The more she learns about the person she used to be the more she doesn't want to be the old her, and ends up falling for her physical therapist Mason.

I love this book so much! If I was in Emma's shoes and I found out I've done the things she did I wouldn't want anything to do with the old me. But Emma gives being the old her a try and she hates it. It makes her want to be a better person.

And Mason. I. Love. Mason. He is so sweet! I love how he is with Emma, and his mom. I just love him! I need more Mason and Emma in my life!

I didn't really like Emma's "friends", or Andrew. I didn't really like her parents in the beginning. They wanted the old Emma back and seemed to oblivious to the fact that the old Emma was a brat.

This book had my attention from the first chapter, I think. The plot wasn't really an uncommon one (the the series finale of Full House comes to mind), but at the same time it was different. Emma tries to be the person she once was, but the more she ties the more she she wants nothing to do with the person she used to be.

Mason's story was sad. the whole thing with his mom and his brother and how he blames himself. And when Emma said she's not leaving him, that part was so sweet!

I really love this book. 

Independence by Shelly Crane Book Review!

Hi!

I'm back to review another Shelly Crane, Independence, the fourth book in the Significance series.

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!

I this it's finally happening! CALEB AND MAGGIE GET MARRIED!!!! So does Kyle and Lynne!!! And Bish and Jen!!! But, of course, the Watsons have to try to ruin everything! This might be my favorite of the series.

I don't think I have to explain my obsession with CalebxMaggie (whatever their shipping name is). I talked about this in past reviews. I also love Lynne and Kyle. They're so cute! And Bish and Jen are finally together, I'm really happy about that.

The people I didn't like were Maggie's mom and Marcus. They are seriously annoying! Another thing I didn't like was Beck's additude when she found out that Maggie was an Ace. I mean, seriously. Why in books, TV shows, and movies when someone has mutant powers and everyone else calls them freaks? If my best friend told me she had powers I'd happy and maybe a little bit jealous. 

I also love that the book made two Imagine Dragons references! I love them! 

And the epilogue was so cute!!! I'm glad Caleb and Maggie got the happy ending they deserve.

I couldn't have asked for a better ending. Thank you Shelly Crane for this amazing book series.
