Guest Review (my sister!!) – Generation (The Imitation Series, Book 3) by Heather Hildenbrand
Generation (The Imitation Series, Book 3)
Review by Johanne Pearl Couturier
OK this is it! The moment you wait for after the second book of the series because the way it ended almost made me scream! OK… I did scream a little. I know, I know… it had to be loud or else it is not a scream right? *wink* Was I ever lucky to have the 3rd book already in my Kindle!!! Oh Hell yes! Ha ha ha
It is the book where everything falls into place and I was beaming because, it is about REVENGE! Do I need to say more? Not only Heather Hildenbrand gives us satisfaction in giving Ven what she wanted and worked so hard for, but she straightens a few other wrongs as well! Felt soooo good all the way to the last page, to the last line… that last sentence creating goose bumps on my forearms as it is a universal truth… and we DO need to be reminded.
Latest Paranormal & Contemporary Romance Book Releases – August 2nd 2016
<— HAPPY NEW RELEASE DAY & THIS IS THE STAR OF THE SHOW YOU GUYS!!!!! The star of today’s “new book releases” show, and maybe even this whole year’s book show. Best book Colleen Hoover has ever written, MY favorite of hers without a doubt, and so far? My absolute favorite of the year!!!!!! This one affected me soul deep. But… you can read my review for more details on that. 😉 My Book Review of It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
And it’s not just me! WE ARE GOING CRAZY for it, together!!
Book Review – It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
It Ends with Us: A Novel
To me? The BEST book this author has ever written. It’s so incredibly deep, and sincerely (<— and I don’t say this lightly) explores a complex struggle between what you feel, and what is real. I’m not referring to just the heroine of this story (which is told entirely from her POV which, to me, makes it so much more poignant), but I’m referring to the reader, too. We become her, on every level.
Well, anyway… I became her, and I just KNOW it was this story that kept me up all night. Not because I was reading it (I tried to put it down to go to sleep so I could get up early and be productive). But I couldn’t. I couldn’t sleep. And at first… I didn’t know why.
Sunday Surprises! Five new surprise releases & sales to squee over!
Not a ton of new releases but most certainly some that are squee-worthy, including a “sort-of” sequel of a psych-thriller romance that I loved like CRAZY a few years ago, and this new one, I am DYING to read!! YAY ME!
That said… first, I’m reading (finishing) Colleen Hoover’s upcoming book It Ends with Us: A Novel (<— going live on Tuesday!!!), and so far it is PURE Colleen Hoover awesomeness.
