Goddess

After accidentally unleashing the gods from their captivity on Olympus, Helen must find a way to re-imprison them without starting a devastating war. But the gods are angry, and their thirst for blood already has a body count.

To make matters worse, the Oracle reveals that a diabolical Tyrant is lurking among them, which drives a wedge between the once-solid group of friends. As the gods use the Scions against one another, Lucas's life hangs in the balance. Still unsure whether she loves him or Orion, Helen is forced to make a terrifying decision, for war is coming to her shores.

In Josephine Angelini's compelling conclusion to the masterfully woven Starcrossed trilogy, a goddess must rise above it all to change a destiny that's been written in the stars. With worlds built just as fast as they crumble, love and war collide in an all-out battle that will leave no question unanswered and no heart untouched.

This is the nail butting conclusion to he fabulous trilogy that has kept in suspended for the last three years. 

And. Most say it wasn't what I expected, I hope for more and the death of certain characters and then there return, yes we get to see more of the Underworld and its lord Hades. Plus, all I am saying is Lucas can be stubborn and bull headed making a fucking deal with The Lord of the Dead.

Every at the ended start to fall to perfectly into place, but then one has to be conscious that I never really happy with the last book of a serious, simply because the series is ending and normally the book can't give the do the series justice, no matter how hard the author tries. Well so as to stop my rambling I finish saying that it was a good book, but I expected more. I do recommend this serious for anybody who love reading about Greek history and its crazy horny gods.

Ashes and Ice

She is desperate to remember.
He is aching to forget.
Together, they are not broken.
But together, one may not survive.

​Jade wakes up with no memory of her past and blood on her hands. 

Plagued by wicked thoughts, she searches for answers. Instead, she finds a boy who doesn't offer her answers, but hope. But sometimes, when nightmares turn into reality and death follows you everywhere, hope is not enough. 

LUST. LOVE. LOSS. Sometimes, all that is left are Ashes and Ice.

It was cute in a way and it made me smile when Jade thinks that most times hope the main character may.

The book is a new tale of angels and demons. I normally tend to keep my distance from this sub- genre though it was a startling surprise when I came to the end.

Saying that it was also pleasant surprise the ending, complete unexpected twist. I would not have guess it.

The only thing lacking is the male protagonist, Conner, yes he is sweet and shy but he just isn't my type, however the the second male lead that I suspect we will see a lot of on the next book from the few pages we get in the ending and epilogue he sounds yummy and one can guess that those two (Jade and Giovanni) have some very interesting history.

This book leave off in a very interesting state and has me curious to what will come next, but like I said before it was lacking in some aspects. 

Darkest minds

When Ruby woke up on her tenth birthday, something about her had changed. Something alarming enough to make her parents lock her in the garage and call the police. Something that gets her sent to Thurmond, a brutal government “rehabilitation camp.” She might have survived the mysterious disease that’s killed most of America’s children, but she and the others have emerged with something far worse: frightening abilities they cannot control.
Now sixteen, Ruby is one of the dangerous ones.
When the truth comes out, Ruby barely escapes Thurmond with her life. Now she’s on the run, desperate to find the one safe haven left for kids like her—East River. She joins a group of kids who escaped their own camp. Liam, their brave leader, is falling hard for Ruby. But no matter how much she aches for him, Ruby can’t risk getting close. Not after what happened to her parents.
When they arrive at East River, nothing is as it seems, least of all its mysterious leader. But there are other forces at work, people who will stop at nothing to use Ruby in their fight against the government. Ruby will be faced with a terrible choice, one that may mean giving up her only chance at a life worth living.

The book contains an interesting plot and it carries great potential, however the main character, our heroine was so stressful at time that I jus wanted to grab her and give her a good shake. Dang from the beginning I got the feeling of how naive she was a stupid. Yes great move in telling the controller that she was Green and not a Orange might be one of the only smart things she did in the whole. After that it all starts to go down hill form their, she instantly beginning to ignore herders and pushes them to the back of her mind, yet we can all guess how that is going to turn out. One of the things that stressed me out the most was how submissive she was and she let others do the thinking for her. And yet out of no where they get attack and with a hit on her head that could be a serious concussion she is able to disable an experience bounty hunter and with her powers that she fears above all else, she erases the memories of them from said bounty hunters mind.

Ruby annoyed the life out of me and I barely got through a chapter without rolling ,e eyes and screaming her name.

The only shocker was Clancy I liked him from the beginning and it was a little of a shock that he turned put being just as bad as his dad or worse. Though I may be a little bias, he was the only character that told Ruby everything that I've been thinking well him and Sam. So that instantly put him on my good side.

While I am not saying that Ruby should instantly trust everyone she meets because that is totally idiotic and suicidal she should learn to use people and turn their own mind games back to them in her favor. 

Unfortunately we finally get a break in the end of the book, to save Liam life she agrees to stay with the League and the girl decides to set him free by erasing his memories of her. Noble but at the same time it hits the core of selfishness she didn't give him a choice and it is the first time she does something for heels and it makes her character more believable no human is that selfless. Throughout the book and I bet you the author thought it a good idea to add a moral lesson in the book. Ruby all about I'm staying with them to protect them, I'm learning to use my powers to protect my friends all I want is to protect them. But how in the end can she protect them without some self preservation and self confidence in what she is and doing.

Though I imagine that it is part of her character building though there isn't much of that as the books progress.

It show some hope for the next installment, the ending is the only thing giving hope in the second book. It is the last chance this series has to make a good impression on me!!!!
