Add to goodreads

Synopsis:

Life can change in a split second.

Addie hardly recognizes her life since her parents divorced. Her boyfriend used her. Her best friend betrayed her. She can’t believe this is the future she chose. On top of that, her ability is acting up. She’s always been able to Search the future when presented with a choice. Now she can manipulate and slow down time, too . . . but not without a price.

When Addie’s dad invites her to spend her winter break with him, she jumps at the chance to escape into the Norm world of Dallas, Texas. There she meets the handsome and achingly familiar Trevor. He’s a virtual stranger to her, so why does her heart do a funny flip every time she sees him? But after witnessing secrets that were supposed to stay hidden, Trevor quickly seems more suspicious of Addie than interested in her. And she has an inexplicable desire to change that.

Meanwhile, her best friend, Laila, has a secret of her own: she can restore Addie’s memories . . . once she learns how. But there are powerful people who don’t want to see this happen. Desperate, Laila tries to manipulate Connor, a brooding bad boy from school—but he seems to be the only boy in the Compound immune to her charms. And the only one who can help her.

As Addie and Laila frantically attempt to retrieve the lost memories, Addie must piece together a world she thought she knew before she loses the love she nearly forgot . . . and a future that could change everything.

Gravity by Melissa West: Oh look at the date. Nov 1, 2013. I've been putting it off for 3 months and I am actually wondering if I would ever pick it up anytime soon. The thing is, this story was too slow. And according to my last update: "information. overload. bye. brain cells." I took the precautionary not to hurt more my brain cells and leave this for while. I remember continuing it again, but eventually put it off again. I am so sorry, I barely remember even the name of the characters.


Hemlock by Kathleen Peacock: I am so cloooose! So close to finishing this book. Just another half and I am done, but I don't want to pressure my self just for the sake of putting it as read and rating it as 2-3 stars. The story was eccentric for it tackles about the mainstream wolves, but it took the concept on a different level. What really ticked me off was the three main characters and the love triangle. They were really eye roll inducing. Pfft. Been putting this off for a month now, and just like Gravity, I don't know if I should continue or put this on hold for a lifetime.

Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes: This was an abrupt and stupid move. I didn't even plan on reading it, I just dl-ed it as e-book and read the first 5 pages. I don't want to DNF it since I haven't even meet half of the main characters and with the premise of the book, I just can't put this DNF. Out of all the three on-hold, I think this one has the greatest chance of being touched again. TAT

Actually I still have more books on-hold but didn't update it in my goodreads. I still remember that I started reading The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa until page 50 something, but the continuous torture of the love triangle made my heart ached I haughtily closed the book and threw it across the room (nah kidding I just closed it.) I like the story damn much, but when the romance that was supposed to be on the sideline of the events took too much of the pages, I easily get irritated. (Ugh, I am such a moody reader - need to discuss this soon) But hey, I am going to continue this soon! You betcha!

And another is Unchained by Jennifer Armentrout. Okay, this one, I was so close like 30 + pages left, but it's not making sense anymore so I thought I leave it for a day then continue it the other day, but what happened? You got it, I totally put it on-hold. There's just something about the story that was so shallow and predictable yet in a minimal pages I thought I could just finish it and get over with it.

Synopsis:

Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year—she’s in love with her big brother’s best friend, but he hasn’t spoken to her since they shared a truly amazing, mind-blowing, change-your-life kiss. She got out of a terrible relationship. And now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good. It’s time for Plan B – college. And maybe a chance to convince Jase that what they have together is real.

Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he’s not telling anyone. Especially not his best friend’s incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must take priority. He certainly doesn’t have time for a relationship. But it doesn’t help that all he can think about kissing the one girl who could ruin everything for him.

As they’re thrown together more and more, Jase and Tess can’t keep denying their feelings for each other. But a familiar danger looms and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must decide what they’re willing to risk to be together, and what they’re willing to lose if they’re not…

SQUEEEE a story about Tess and Jase. JASE. JASE. So hold up, did I like this book? Yes. Is it better than the first book (Cam & Avery)? Somewhat yes. How about the steamy and toe-curling scenes? *fans self* What about the secrets & plot twists? I was MIND BLOWN. How about the emotion the book reeked? I FELT IT just fine. Did it hurt? YES. Did you have some eye rolls? HAHA yes. Few. Ahhhhh. Female protagonist? She was okay, but not totally lovable. And the male? EHH HE CONFUSED ME BUT JASE J A S E. Anymore coherent comment?
