Book Review: Better Off Friends

Image
Title: Better Off Friends Author: Elizabeth Eulberg Publisher: Point Rating: 5 Synopsis (via Goodreads): For Macallan and Levi, it was friends at first sight. Everyone says guys and girls can’t be just friends, but these two are. They hang out after school, share tons of inside jokes, their families are super close, and Levi even starts dating one of Macallan’s friends. They are platonic and happy that way. Eventually they realize they're best friends — which wouldn't be so bad if they didn't keep getting in each other’s way. Guys won't ask Macallan out because they think she’s with Levi, and Levi spends too much time joking around with Macallan, and maybe not enough time with his date. They can't help but wonder . . . are they more than friends or are they better off without making it even more complicated? From romantic comedy superstar Elizabeth Eulberg comes a fresh, fun examination of a question for the ages: Can guys and girls ever really be just

Now Alex is in the fight of her life against the adults, who would use her, the survivors, who don't trust her, and the Changed, who would eat her alive. Welcome to Shadows , the second book in the haunting apocalyptic Ashes Trilogy: where no one is safe and humans may be the worst of the monsters. Review: Just a heads up that this one contains, yet again, spoilers. Reader discretion is advised.  I was determined to read Shadows after I finished Ashes , but now I don't know if I want to get a copy of Monsters to even finish the t

Interview with Miss Aprille Legacy

I feel pretty special saying that I knew Aprille Legacy via Goodreads before she became published, but I feel even more honored to be able to feature her on my blog! I'm sure this won't be the last time, either. (: So, without further ado: Miss Aprille Legacy, author of Soul Fire and Soul Blaze (released on March 29th). Why the change in cover images for Soul Fire and Soul Blaze ? I decided to change the covers to make them more eye-catching. Also, it was a lot of fun bringing the images together! I’m actually on the cover of Soul Fire and cringe everytime I remember, but the model for Soul Blaze is the beautiful Skye Foster. We had a lot of fun with that sword out in the Adelaide Hills! Do you plan on publishing any other books besides those in the Soul Fire trilogy? Absolutely! Ruthless , my Victorian Steampunk, will probably come out later this year, and then after that I have another series cooking away in my head. Who is a character you would be in one of your
