Published as ebook by S&S Books for young readers  So this book showed up on my radar fairly unexpectedly. I've got to be honest and say that I hadn't been aware of its publication at all and I certainly didn't know what to expect when I read that 'Black Ice' was labeled as a 'dark and mysterious thriller.'  The reviews I'd read prior to starting the ebook were rather mixed in opinion, but as a big fan of the the Hush Hush series I knew I would just have to give it a chance.  It started off entertaining enough and despite my initial concerns, I kept on reading. I'm not too sure how I feel about labelling Black Ice as a thriller however,  because if I had to be brutally honest, I don't believe it really qualifies as one, even as a young-adult thriller.  Were there parts that somewhat shocked me? Yes, certainly.  Was I scared or at all worried for the characters at any point? Sadly...no.  Which is why I think t...

Lovely Vicious by Sara Wolf My rating: 5 of 5 stars The cover was what intrigued me initially. The story however blew me away. Utterly and completely threw me.  Definitely didn't see that one coming when I started it. Now let me make this clear for you, this is by no means your average teen romance. Nope. So if you're expecting sappy, sugary sweet romance, then this isn't the book for you. However, if you're keen on mystery, suspense and intrigue topped off with the most brilliant kinds of humour, what are you waiting for!? Lovely Vicious will knock your socks off.  There a so many different layers of darkness and solid ice that surround both of the main characters and I absolutely loved. Devoured it. I couldn't put it down and went through a serious phase of book mourning after I turned the last page. IT CANT BE OVER. NO. NO IT CANT BE. But it was and I had to deal with waiting for the second one. Absolute torture.  The suspense and the...

Teaser Tuesdays  is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of  Should Be Reading Our Teaser for this week : ' 'My mind is already going there, to that disaterous routine.

This morning I realised, once again , just how much we take for granted. How much  I  take for granted.  Friendships, health, good fortune.  How easy it is to make judgments, instead of just being thankful.  And now I sit here in my oversized room, pondering, heavy thoughts clouding up my mind while letters fly out of my fingertips.  Writing down your worries may help, but it will not change anything. We all know this, but here I am, typing, instead of doing.  But I'm done typing and I'd advise you all to join me on this mission. Let's make 2014 a year of change , a year of definitive actions and a year of improvements , but most importantly, let's make it a year that will lead us into a brighter, happier future , for you and for the people around you.  So stop writing and start doing.
