Jacob:“We also told her you weren’t a serial killer,”

Cam:“That’s a glowing recommendation. Hey, at least he’s not a serial killer. I’m going to put that on my Facebook profile.”

Jacob:“And she compared you to Ted Bundy.”

Avery:“I hate you,I didn’t compare you to Ted Bundy. I just said that you never really know a person. Everyone thought Ted Bundy was a pretty cool guy.”

Cam:“Wow. This just keeps getting better.”

Avery:“Sorry?”

Wait For You is a stand alone book written by J. Lynn,aka Jennifer L. Armentrout.

I was so enthralled by this book that I actually stayed up until late(too late)to finish it and hence i didn't even study for school.But it was definitely worth it!!!

Cam,oh Cam!!He was so sweet, confident(arrogant), smart,funny(hilarious ),very mature and a real gentleman.He was so fun to have around.When he wanted something he took it or at least didn't give up until he had done everything he could.And that's our case with dear Avery. Avery it's not your average girl. I really liked and sympathised her but there were times that she was being very stubborn and I know that after what she's been through it's natural to be cautious and wary but come on she had two wonderful friends who adored her and a superhot neighbor who was so in love with her(of couse I'm talking about Cam)....

Letting your past go is not so easy for everyone and especially for people like Avery!!!No one is perfect and I soooooo loved the fact that Cam wasn't perfect either.We have all done things that we are ashamed of.But the thing that I hated the most was Avery's family.I mean what psychopaths!Her mother was such a b****.Even when her own daughter got brutalized,the only thing she was thinking was what would society say and by society I mean their high class club friends.Really???What kind of mother are you???And as long as her father is concerned I didn't like him either.No matter what his wife did or say he should had at least stood up for his daughter.Ts Ts Ts!!!

I absolutely LOVED the secondary characters!!!!!All of them.I wish there was a book written for them as well.Especially for "Senior Fucktard".He was so amazing.Another thing that I really liked was the tortoise.Absofuckinglutely loveed it!!!!And the cookies!Oh the cookies.

So please do yourselves a favor and go read this extraordinary fantastic book.Absolutely recommended.

Blurb:

Some things are worth waiting for…

Traveling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago—an event that forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any attention to herself, and maybe—please God—make a few friends, because surely that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn’t need and never planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the precarious future she’s building for herself.

Some things are worth experiencing…

Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn dimple that’s just so… so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew existed.

Some things should never be kept quiet…

But when Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants silenced, she has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?

And some things are worth fighting for…

Beauty Awakened By Gena Showalter

Beauty Awakened  (Angels of the Dark #2)
By Gena Showalter

My rating: 4 of 5 stars




Axel:“YOU’RE ACTING like a child,”

Koldo:“That’s funny, coming from you,”

Axel:“You threw alcohol at a puny human male.”

Koldo:“He’s lucky to still be alive. I could have thrown daggers.”

Axel:“Wait. Did you think I was complaining? I was actually cheering.”

Wow!Wow!Wow! 4,5 Stars

Another amazing book by Gena Showalter .It's been such a long time since I found out about this book and I finally got to read it...

Koldo has been betrayed by the very people who created him.Firstly,his mother cut his wings(literally) and later his father abused him.Although,I do not condone his mother's actions,I can understand why she acted the way she did.Tragedy stuck Nicola from the moment she was born.From a very early age,she and her twin sister have suffered from heart dysfunction and as if that wasn't enough they lost their parents and little brother in a car accident.

Koldo's on a mission.Until it gets interrupted by a lovely woman.Koldo is not the type of man who lets people get close to him but he makes an exception with Nicola,even though he doesn't know why.Nicola,on the other hand,has been alone so long that she has lost the meaning of life.I really liked,she was strong,courageous,relible and trustworthy.She never,even for one minute,doubted Koldo but instead chose to believe and trust him.

It was so heartbreaking watching Koldo trying so hard to make people love him.I was glad when Nicola made him understand that you couldn't force people to love you,they either did or not.And he surely deserved to be loved.It was so emotional,seeing how shocked he was when Nicola told him that she loved him.The book was just so good.It had a nice flow,balanced portions of action,romance and suspense.

However,I noticed that there were more fight scenes(and I don't mean between the main characters but the secondary ones) and it was quite tiring.I liked the book but I would have loved it if there were more Koldo-Nicola scenes.And I HATED that every time they were together they had to be interrupted by someone.

Overall,it is a worth reading book especially if you are a fan of LOTU.Totally recommended.

Blurb:

His name is Koldo. He is scarred, powerful, his control legendary-and he lives only for vengeance, determined to punish the angel who viciously removed his wings. But if he yields to the forces of hatred, he will be kicked from the heavens, eternally damned.

She is his last hope. Nicola Lane was born with a defective heart, yet this fragile human shows surprising strength as demons stalk her every move, determined to end her. She is the key to Koldo's deliverance...and his downfall. Though he fights duty, destiny and his first addictive taste of desire, his toughest battle will be the one for Nicola's life-even if he has to sacrifice his own...

Insanity By Lauren Hammond

Insanity  (Asylum #1)

By Lauren Hammond

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


"No...

I don't care what the staff tells me.

I. Am. Not. Crazy." -Addy

I Think that words aren't enough to describe what what I really feel for this book.

Insanity is a stupendous novel and a real challenge to readers.There were times that it was so difficult to tell the difference between what's real and what's not.Especially the final chapters were so vague and hazy.

Addy had the perfect life.That is until her mother "left" when Addy was 10 years old.Her father became an alcoholic and began abusing her both physically and emotionally.I'm utterly disgusted by him.He would beat her down and call her names and all because she looked like her mother.The thruth is that when I finally read what had really happened,the only thing that came to my mind was what a pathetic excuse of a man he was,a lowlife.

The story had many twists or so I thought because the main character,Addy,was the narrator and anything that happened before and during her life in the asylum was described by her.Although we don't get to see why she got to the asylum,we see some pieces of her past with Damien,who I can't say loved but surely liked.He is so romantic.Here's a taste of him "Addy, living one day without you would never be for the best. I want you every minute of every day. Forever. I love you.”

She is so obsessed with him that even in the asylum all about she thnks is him.I think that what she saw when she was just 17 has stuck with her even though she has forgotten everything else.

She seems to believe that her life hasn't progressed since Damien's horrible death but it did.She's so lost,I don't know why as the book doesn't elaborate what she did in order to end up in the asylum,which is so messed up.The only thing that I liked of it was Dr. Watson who later reveals his true identity.His so patient and caring.I bet no man in the world would do what he did for Addy.He's awesome!!!

I loved this book.It's just insanely awesome!I definitely recommend it to anyone and I can't wait to read the folllowing book,White Walls.

Blurb:
