Review: Binding 13 by Chloe Walsh

Image
I picked up a copy of the first novel in the Boys of Tommen series assuming that it was set in a university. Turns out that I was wrong. The characters are all in high school, though as per the note in the front, the novel is pitched at readers over the age of eighteen. The setting is quite dark and topics addressed include alcoholism, physical abuse and bullying. The romance, pairing a fifteen year old girl who is small for her age and described as having a childlike appearance with a boy who is physically mature, sexually active, who invades her privacy and is not far from his eighteenth birthday seems questionable.  After suffering through years of bullying at school, some of which put her in hospital, Shannon has transferred to a private school, one so expensive that her mother has to take out a loan to pay all the fees.

Feature and Follow Friday Feature blogger!

Good grief! It's 8am, I've just jumped on the bus, checked my emails and discovered that I'm one of this week's Feature and Follow Friday feature bloggers! So, welcome everyone, and thanks heaps to Parajunkee and Alison Can Read ! This week's question is:  Confess your blogger sins! Is there anything as a newbie blogger that you've done, that as you've gained more experience you were like -- oops?

I used to think that I was failing as a reviewer if I didn't point out at least one thing that was wrong with the book. As I've grown more experienced, I've realised that sometimes that said more about my skills as a reviewer/critic than it did about the authors work.

Review: Hopeless by Colleen Hoover

Image
Hopeless is the first instalment in a two part series by Colleen Hover, whose novel Slammed was a surprise hit a little while back. Hopeless belongs firmly in that genre of books about love at first sight and passionate, intense romances between young people ... or does it? Hopeless tells the story of Sky, a young woman who has lived a very sheltered life, thanks to the watchful gaze of her adoptive mother, Karen. Denied television, the internet or a mobile phone and home schooled she would almost be cut off from society entirely, if it were not for the (slightly evil but ultimately good,) influence of her quirky best friend and neighbour, Six. Almost eighteen, Sky insists on enrolling at a public high school for her senior year, as she thinks this will assist her with her college applications. Karen is hesitant but allows it. Once at school, Sky meets Holder, a boy with a bad reputation and who pursues her with an almost frightening intensity. A passionate affair between th...
