Synopsis:

Postcard-perfect Jar Island is home to charming tourist shops, pristine beaches, amazing oceanfront homes—and three girls secretly plotting revenge.

KAT is sick and tired of being bullied by her former best friend.

LILLIA has always looked out for her little sister, so when she discovers that one of her guy friends has been secretly hooking up with her, she’s going to put a stop to it.

MARY is perpetually haunted by a traumatic event from years past, and the boy who’s responsible has yet to get what’s coming to him.

None of the girls can act on their revenge fantasies alone without being suspected. But together…anything is possible.

With an alliance in place, there will be no more “I wish I’d said…” or “If I could go back and do things differently...” These girls will show Jar Island that revenge is a dish best enjoyed together.

Synopsis:

 Just listen, Adam says with a voice that sounds like shrapnel.

I open my eyes wide now.
I sit up as much as I can.
And I listen.

Stay, he says.


Choices. Seventeen-year-old Mia is faced with some tough ones: Stay true to her first love—music—even if it means losing her boyfriend and leaving her family and friends behind?

Then one February morning Mia goes for a drive with her family, and in an instant, everything changes. Suddenly, all the choices are gone, except one. And it's the only one that matters.

If I Stay is a heartachingly beautiful book about the power of love, the true meaning of family, and the choices we all make.

Tuesday, August 4, 2015

Hi there~ As some of you know, The Mortal Instruments is getting a remake and will be turned into a TV show on ABC Family after the movie -well how can I say this in the least painful way- flopped and sucked. It starts airing in January 2016 and they're shooting it right now.
Today, I'll be discussing the casting and giving my opinions on them based on their looks only because other than Dom, Alan and Harry, I haven't seen the rest of cast act before.
Alright, let's start:


♡ The Courtship Book Tag ♡

Sunday, August 2, 2015

Hello lovelies, I'm finally back and I know I haven't posted in here since months but I have my reasons to why I completely disappeared and I'm not going to rant about them because that's just a waste of time (and because I'm a terrible storyteller).

Anyway~ I decided to do a book tag which is for me way more fun than writing reviews (total energy drainers. But worth it).

I chose The Courtship Book Tag, originally created by Hi I Love Books (you can check her video here), It includes 10 questions and I was auto-tagged by Abookutopia.

Alright then~
