Waiting On Wednesday (23)

"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Teardrop (Teardrop #1)
Author: Lauren Kate
Release: October 22nd, 2013 (Delacorte Books of Young Readers)
Page: 464


Never, ever cry. . . . Eureka Boudreaux's mother drilled that rule into her daughter years ago. But now her mother is gone, and everywhere Eureka goes he is there: Ander, the tall, pale blond boy who seems to know things he shouldn't, who tells Eureka she is in grave danger, who comes closer to making her cry than anyone has before.

But Ander doesn't know Eureka's darkest secret: ever since her mother drowned in a freak accident, Eureka wishes she were dead, too. She has little left that she cares about, just her oldest friend, Brooks, and a strange inheritance—a locket, a letter, a mysterious stone, and an ancient book no one understands. The book contains a haunting tale about a girl who got her heart broken and cried an entire continent into the sea. Eureka is about to discover that the ancient tale is more than a story, that Ander might be telling the truth . . . and that her life has far darker undercurrents than she ever imagined. From Lauren Kate comes an epic saga of heart-stopping romance, devastating secrets, and dark magic . . . a world where everything you love can be washed away.

Waiting On Wednesday (22)

"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Title: Racing Savannah (Hundred Oaks #4)
Author: Miranda Kenneally
Date: December 3rd, 2013 (Sourcebooks Fire)
Page: 304

They’re from two different worlds.

He lives in the estate house, and she spends most of her time in the stables helping her father train horses. In fact, Savannah has always been much more comfortable around horses than boys. Especially boys like Jack Goodwin—cocky, popular and completely out of her league. She knows the rules: no mixing between the staff and the Goodwin family. But Jack has no such boundaries.

With her dream of becoming a horse jockey, Savannah isn’t exactly one to follow the rules either. She’s not going to let someone tell her a girl isn’t tough enough to race. Sure, it’s dangerous. Then again, so is dating Jack…

WWW Wednesdays (13)

WWW Wednesdays is a weekly Meme hosted by Mizb @ Should Be Reading. To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions:  

• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you'll read next?

What are you currently reading? I'm reading The Darkest Minds by Alexander Bracken. I heard so many great things about this book. I could not stop myself from picking this up. I'm over half way in the book. I'm loving it so far. I'm hoping there will be a lot more action coming soon. 

What did you recently finish reading? I finished School Spirits by Rachel Hawkins. I finish this a few days ago. I really enjoyed her Hex Hall trilogy. I love Rachel Hawkins's writing. It's very funny and enjoyable. I didn't like this book as much as Hex Hall but I will continue on with this trilogy/series. 

What do you think you'll read next? I'm hoping to finish The Darkness Minds today and start on Pivot Point. I also heard a lot of great things about this book. I know I'm going to love this after reading the first chapter of this book.  

Confessions of an Angry Girl by Louise Rozett

Title: Confessions of an Angry Girl
Author: Louise Rozett
Pages: 266
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Date of Published: August 28th 2012
Format: NetGalley, eARC
My Rating: 4 1/2 stars

Rose Zarelli, self-proclaimed word geek and angry girl, has some confessions to make…

1. I'm livid all the time. Why? My dad died. My mom barely talks. My brother abandoned us. I think I'm allowed to be irate, don't you?

2. I make people furious regularly. Want an example? I kissed Jamie Forta, a badass guy who might be dating a cheerleader. She is nowenraged and out for blood. Mine.

3. High school might as well be Mars. My best friend has been replaced by an alien, and I see red all the time. (Mars is red and "seeing red" means being angry—get it?)

Here are some other vocab words that describe my life: Inadequate. Insufferable. Intolerable.

(Don't know what they mean? Look them up yourself.)

(Sorry. That was rude.)

Review:

When I first started reading this book, I wasn't expecting anything. I was hoping it would be a light and fun read. This is the first book I read for fun in a year. I'm always reading books for school but I finally made myself read a book. Im so happy I did. I was in a reading slump for a year, but this book changed it.

This book is about a girl name rose. She is starting the first year of high school, without her brother or dad. She isn't happy with her life, either is her mom. Her life is falling apart. His brother isn't the same anymore after he went to college.

Tracy missed Rose birthday when she turned fourteen. She was so obsessed over her boyfriend and the idea of hanging out with the cheerleading squad. She missed her fifth teen birthday also but why? Tracy is part of the cheerleading squad. She was always trying to make Rose be friends with her popular group she hangs out with but Rose never did like them. It made them grew apart. I still like Tracy, I feel like she's half the girls at my school. They think popularity is an important part of high school. It's not. 

Rose knew Jamie from long ago. He was in the same hockey team as her brother but he got kicked off the team. Throughout the school year she was always curious why Jamie was looking at her. Was he checking her out? No? Yes? Jamie sounds like a hottie. I love when there's a bad boy in the book. Oh did I tell you Jamie has a girlfriend, she's the captain of the cheerleading squad. 

Robert was always in love with Rose but she never felt the same way. He was always friend zoned. I love Robert. He's so cute and he is always there for Rose even though she doesn't want him to be there. It's like a guy best friend. She's sick and tired of him.

From the first page to the last page, there's always something happening. I love how fast paced the book is. The action never stops. It's a story about a freshman girl who has problems in her life. The book involves drama, losing friends, romance, and personal problems. It's also funny at times. I love this book!
