Anyone? by Angela Scott

I finished this book in about three hours...
I also tweeted her to see if there would be a sequel...which I want really bad...

"The end of the world? That’s the stuff of Hollywood blockbusters and deep philosophical exercises in school. No need to sweat it. So when sixteen-year-old Tess’s doomsday-dad builds a bomb shelter in their suburban backyard, everyone thinks he’s gone crazy….
…Until fire rains down from the sky, sinking whole cities into colossal craters and setting much of the world ablaze.
Tess’s dad gives her a few short minutes to gather her emergency bag and her freaked-out kitten, then leads her outside and into the underground shelter. Terrified, the last thing she expects is for him to leave her there all alone, but he has no choice—he must find her missing brother. Before leaving, he makes Tess promise to keep the hatch door shut, not to open it for anyone but him, and to stay put until he returns.
But he forgot to tell her one thing: What is she supposed to do if he never comes back?" -Goodreads


Anyone? is a novel about a young girl who has to set out on her own after her world is torn apart. On her journey, she meets a few people and tries to keep her kitten, Callie, in line with a pink leash. It was an interesting read and I could not put it down. At the end all I wanted was a sequel to this wonderful novel.

On Goodreads, I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars, but it is more like a 4.75 out of 5 stars. I liked the character development for some characters but loved it for others like Tess, the protagonist. Although I would have liked to know more about some characters like her dad or her brother. Or Cole...! I loved watching her grow as a person and seeing how she had changed by the end. While I loved her character, my favorite has to be Cole! He is a humorous male character that Tess meets and "befriends". Even if they argue and don't totally get a long in the beginning.

Also I liked the romance. I love how it was slow in its beginning and remained so throughout the novel and it was not like love at first sight, which I think is kinda over done. I also liked Angela's writing style and how her novel seemed to flow. I loved the wit and charm of her writing as well. Her dialogue was funny and serious at appropriate times. It also had a lot of wit, which I loved!   

I would recommend this novel to anyone who wants a fast paced, exciting, and well-written novel. Also I recommend this to people who love world ending situations! This book is available on December 1st!

My Favorite Quote: "'I'm sure you would've managed. Sometimes we don't know how strong we are or what we're capable of doing until we're forced to find out.'"- Cole

Night of All Evil by J.M. Shorney

My Rating: 3/5 stars Average Rating: 4/5 stars Format: ebook ISBN13: 9781310806902 I received a free copy in exchange for a honest review from AuthorAmp.com Night of All Evil was a good gothic horror novel about a witch named Freya that has a dark past that comes back to haunt her and her family. Freya was my favorite character and I really enjoyed reading from her point of view. The thing I liked about her was how she acted in the situations she is placed in. She also is just an interesting person that also happens to be a super powerful witch, which is pretty cool. In fact once I started this novel, I had a hard time putting it down. While I really enjoyed reading the story, the character development was just okay and it was kind of predictable. However, it was still a good read that grabbed my attention and kept me entertained.                                                                                                                 Thanks for reading!  

Lost Time: The Adventure Begins by Norbert Monfort

⭐️ My Rating: 1/5 Stars Pages: 70 ISBN:  9781500391904 *I received a free copy of Lost Time: The Adventure Begins in exchange for a honest review* " Robert Ridgely was a young professional living a rather mundane existence, but one he enjoyed. One day, Robert awakes to find he can't remember how he arrived at his destination. The more he finds out about what happened, the more confused he gets and the more time he realizes he's lost from his memory. As Robert persists, eventually he is drawn into an adventure that would change his life forever and place him on a path that he could never have imagined." -Goodreads I really wanted to like this book, but I ended up actually hating it. The biggest problem I had was that there is no character development and very little world building. Due to this, I couldn't connect or grow to like the characters.  In fact, I kinda disliked them all and didn't care about their lives. If this story was longer and made

May Wrap Up and June TBR!

A Little Update! Hey guys! It had been a long time since I have written one of these and I'm so sorry. I've just been busy with work and school that I haven't had a lot of time to read. However, I'm home for break and that should all change! Also I'm going to try to do better next semester with uploading and such because I really do like book blogging and I just want to keep growing as a bookblogger. Anyway, Now Onto My Wrap Up for May! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ In the month of May, I read a total of three books and I enjoyed them all. Some more than others, but they all were good. These books include Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning , Scarlet by Marissa Meyer , and Severance by Michael Pristsos and Jessica Mastorakos .   ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ Darkfever was a great start to a series about the fae and it has unique ideas involving the fae world trope. It had good characters and great world building. I really liked it and I will definitely continue with the series. I really li
