When Edana and Faudron's worlds collide, they are sent down a path filled with deceit and betrayal, putting them both on the run from the Druids and Humans.

Review: Hush

Hush by E.K. Blair
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Okay let's start with something possitive okay?

I love this series since the first book came out, I've waited like a year to get the third book in my hands, I went to the freaking extense of buying a personalized silver lotus necklace, 'cause ..let's face it: the first book does make honor to the real meaning of that flower....but all of this , all of IT I'm saying it to show how fucking much I LOVED this book!!!!





Now I won't butcher this book 'cause it doesn't deserve it!
It was a GOOD BOOK! not a great book, not what I expected!, but wasn't bad either....until we got to the very end, of course



A few pages less, seriously just a few pages less and everything would have gone great! Leave us ,the readers, to wonder what the hell would have happened...but not like this, pleaaaaaaaaaaseeeee!

because I feel like:




Instead of life it would go The epilogue, though.

I frankly don't understand it.

Anyway here are the good things:

D&E:

and of course now, that their relationship was more cimented they can now saY:

I don't think I have another thing to say, but that was a good book! it made me cry in a few -2- chapters, touches a soft spot on my heart, wishing that Elizabeth wouldn't have won the bad Karma prize :




this could easily have been said for her.

And Her dad, okay...that was an answer but come on!! (view spoiler)[Did he really had to die?! (hide spoiler)] so when you talk about the queen of drama and bad karma, you know where to look for.

All in all: i liked it but NOT the epilogue. just NOT

-------------------------------------------------------

I feel a bit mad, and that's being subtle.


I was waiting a lot for this book and yeah it was not what I expected, but was acceptable!
But one page just one single freaking page and everything would have gone extremely well: JUST ONE PAGE LESS
Believe me when I tell you that you wouldn't have like to see me at the end of the book. I'm gonna have to get a gif to give u an idea of what I was screaming while sending daggers to my e-reader

oh anyway we're all just paseenger on the author's crazy journey through her mind.

rev to com.
PS.I stay with book 1 & 2. just that.
------------------------------------------------------



Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it, Need it... I already said that I need it, right ? . XD

Review: Opaque Mirrors

Opaque Mirrors by Courtney Lane
My rating: 5 of 5 stars



THIS IS NOT FOR THOSE WHO MAY SUFFER FROM THE HEART , not at all

Clarified that, let's begin.

I'm so excited that I don't know how to start, haven't given a 5 stars rate in a very long time. XD


okay, now, I'm fine : Let's roll.

So what is the book about?
Better said what the book is not about.
Please meet Whitney,

she's not, by all means, your girl from next door. She comes from a family and an education where the only art is the master of pain, where she becomes the Mistress and makes submissive men fantasies come true.
That until she meets : NICK

The yummy bad boy, that any girl would want to put her hands on; but in this case the word bad it actually comes for: DANGER! RUN AWAY!.
Nick is a porn star of where he's more than the master of pain, he lives it, loves it and craves it til the extente where he'd also crave for it.



point where our dear Whit will come in handy, not knowing that she'd also have more than just one similitude with Nick.

After this megaevent in Whitney's life...she decides to not let herself sink in her hidden cravings so she'll go to the most safeful place she could find: Bebletown, as if the names wouldn't deceit ha!
Anyway where she'll ...

“If you behave a certain way, you’ll be labeled a certain way. It’s a perfect way to reinvent yourself if you know how to work the small-town grapevine system.”

But she'll be so far away from being safe, given that a series of murders start to take place in the small town, and everything related to them apparently has everithing to do with her red cravings, taking her to the point where she...

And in the middle of her crazy journey she'll meet:Mason her knigh in BLACK armor

A town police officer with an obsession when she is concerned, and will do eveything to get her.

And his brother: HAYDEN

Your average sweet boy next door that hides within himself the more dark and delicious fantasies you can ever come with.
But too bad for him that his ideal companion is his brother's obsession.

So the killings give path to a serial killer, where Whitney's mind will be more than implied on them

having only Mason and Hayden as her only allies and trust worthies, she'll have to endure a a journey where reality will be just another name to call a world inside your head

you thought Alice was crazy? Try again!


So at this point, you reader, will be as crazy as dear Whitney here...but the truth comes at the end in a shocking hit that will leave you ...


And the message of this tale?, at least for me

PS. If you like dark erotica, then you're gonna love this one 'cause this characters cravings go beyond chains and whips, way beyond that, so if you're reading this humble review before to get to the book, just consider yourself warned. BUT the crazy journey in this fucked-up, twisted version of naughty red Whitney in Crazyland, surely worths it!

------------------------------------------ ---------
Usually I give 5 stars to books that get me trough more than just one or two emotions, rather books that make me laugh, scream bloody murder, cry, excite me and a of course that give me a message.

So this one didn't make me cry at all, or laugh hard either... but I can tell you that throw me to whirlpool of feelings including fear, where all my senses were so messed up as the heroine's...so why do I give it 5? 'cause this is a master piece to ring every single alarm in your head, is so twisted that at the end you'd be feeling such a great peace & ease and also saying : WTH all of that just for those reasons!!! seriously? what?

But it was a hell of a great, twisted and dark journey!

Review: The Canterville Ghost and Other Stories

The Canterville Ghost and Other Stories by Oscar Wilde
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

You know what? I 've read this book in spanish so it's logical, I guess, that the review is made in spanish as well.
So here it goes:

El libro trae 3 historias, si? Siendo la principal, obviamente la del fantasma de Canterville; seguida luego por El Crimen de Lord Arthur Saville y la Esfinge sin secretos

EL FANTASMA DE CANTERVILLE

Ya había leído esta historia en Secundaria, si mal no recuerdo, pero fue en uno de esos panfletos otorgados por la escuela, que se te dan para hacer un trabajo en grupo y que el salón permanezca en silencio...pues bien a mi me encantó la historia en ese momento pero, sinceramente creí que faltaban páginas o no nos habían dado la historia completa, razón por la que cuando vi el libro con la historia y otras 2 más...la compré.

Pues bien, una familia de aristócratas americanos se mudan a una antigua mansión inglesa maldecida por la presencia de un fantasma...es decir una casa embrujada.
Sin embargo esta es una familia de escépticos, por lo que las interacciones con el temido fantasma eran un poco inusuales para el gusto del espíritu:

Querido Señor-dijo el Señor Otis-: permítame recomendarle engrase esas cadenas, para lo cual le ruego acepte esta botellita de lubricante Tammany Sol Naciente. Aseguran que es eficacísimo y que basta una sola aplicación. En la etiqueta constan varios testimonios de nuestros más prestigiosos teólogos. Se lo dejaréaquí, al lado de las palmatorias y, si necesita usted más, tendré mucho gusto en procurárselo.

Un fantasma que nunca había sido tratado tan descortésmente por nadie, no se daría por vencido sino hasta cumplir su cometido, a pesar que eso le trajera varios tiros por la culata.

Era, sin duda alguna gente que vivía en un nivel de vida inferior y materialista, incapaces de apreciar el valor simbólico de los fenómenos sensibles.

Tan determinado estaba en asustarlos que no se percató de la presencia de aquella que lo liberaría:

Cuando una virgen rubia haga brotar
De los labios del pecador una oración;
Cuando el almendro seco dé su flor,
O un niño sus lágrimas derrame,
Tranquila entonces la casa quedará
Y la paz a Canterville volverá.
Pero no sé lo qué significa.

EL CRIMEN DE LORD ARTHUR SAVILLE

Esto me hizo recordar un poco a Edipo rey / Edipo en Colono, debido a que también tenemos un oráculo, sólo que en este caso es un quiromántico el cual puede leer la mano de cualquier persona y vaticinar con precisión su futuro. Un quiromántico de suma confianza de una alta dama de la sociedad que, dentro de una fiesta insista que le lean la mano a Lord Arthur, quien luego de saber que la palabra ASESINO estaba en su futuro; hará de todo con tal de cumplir con su carga y pueda casarse con el amor de su vida.

Hace de todo, pero el destino le juega varias bromas, evitando que cumpla su cometido.


Pero al final cuando al parecer ya lo hizo, resulta que la persona que le había infundido la certeza en creer en la palabra del quiromántico resulta...

-¿Es verdad que usted cree en la quiromancia?
-Naturalmente
-Pero y ¿por qué?
-Porque le debo toda mi felicidad murmuró Lord Arthur, dejándose caer sobre un sillón de mimbre.
-¿Y qué es lo que le debe usted, mi querido Lord Arthur, si puede saberse?
-Le debo a Sibyl-replicó
-¡Qué tontería!-exclamó Lady Windereme- ¡En mi vida he oído un disparate semejante!

Mientras el hizo de todo para terminar con ese molesto destino, cuando simplemente pudo haber sido un ardid del quiromántico para ayudarlo con su propio propósito!

LA ESFINGE SIN SECRETOS

Un aristócrata desconfiado, enamorado de una mujer con un aire de misterio; que al momento de preguntar por ellos; debido a que se iban a casar ella se niega a desvelar la verdad, terminando así con el compromiso, debido a ...

Soy incapaz de amar a alguien en quien no puedo confiar

después de todo Lord Gerald...

No; era la mujer la que yo amaba. El misterio me molestaba, me enloquecía.¿por qué me puso el azar en su camino?

Cuando la realidad es finalmente revelada, Gerald se da cuenta del terrible error que cometió pero aún así, sigue sin cambiar de mentalidad acerca de la confianza humana.




Así que en en suma el Sr Wilde, nos ofrece una lectura entretenida, fuera de lo normal, donde no todo sucede de la forma en que uno espera, y el sarcasmo, así como el exceso de las debilidades propias de los seres humanos es puesto en exposición.

---------------------------------------------------
Sorry Mr. Wilde but this was a bit .....duh! even though, it made me laugh a bit!
Review on its way.

Review: Target on Our Backs

Target on Our Backs by J.M. Darhower
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

While doing the review, the book made me remember how much it made me laugh! Oh dear God the author messes with One Direction , which BTW I totally agree with Naz about them this was too funny as the first one, I’d dare to say that was funnier than the first one actually XD.

I mean :

"Karissa, baby, I love you. You know that. But do you honestly think, if I hadn't had other reasons, I would've even given you a second look?"
I blanch. "Ouch."

WTF?!Seriously? yeah we get it,you’re prince charming in shining armor and every girl fantasy but …come on!

"Don't act like that's anything more than it is. You're beautiful and wise beyond your years. But I'm pushing forty here, sweetheart. It wouldn't have even crossed my mind to pursue you. You're everything I'm not. Everything I'll probably never be. And just the simple fact that you honestly think it's possible for me to make friends in this city, after the things I've been involved in, proves what I'm saying."

Oh!! Okay I think I LOVE YOU even more if that’s possible.



GOSHHHHHHH! How the fuck can’t I love this man?!

"I haven't," I say. "But then again, I don't make a habit of ordering ice cream with my dinner."

"You should. You don't know what you're missing." She grabs another fry and dips it into her Frosty before holding it out to me. "Here, try it."

My natural instinct is to deny her, not because I think it might be tampered with, but because it frankly sounds disgusting. But I'm turning over a new leaf here, and I've already ended up at a fast food restaurant with my wife in her pajamas.

Why not humor her?

See ? for any guy that is reading this: WHY NOT HUMOR US?! Ha!!! You might get lucky after! XP

All this skipping class can't be good for your grades," he says. "So I guess we'll see if it's a problem when report cards come in."

I laugh at that. "What are you going to do, ground me?"
"No, but I might spank you."

"Promise?"

He stares at me.

Oh dear!!! I seriously considering taking older guys offers after this, older as in 10 years difference as top XD

"I married you, so it's sort of your job to give me a hard time."

I’m totally giving this book to my future hubby when he’s about to write his vows. REALLY! XD

Now let's not forget about the actual story yeah?
so the issues now they'll have to face as a couple?

besides Naz as a hubby?

"He's good looking… like, really good looking. I'm talking cover of GQ kind of good looking. It's like, wow…"

"If you're trying to get me to kill him, all you have to do is ask."

Gasping, I elbow Naz. "Not funny. I would never. I'm just saying…

Naz is jealousssssssssssssss! Love it !

Remember that we're talking about THIS Naz:

Among a lot of difficulties and hardhips...they'd always remain together, they're each other's half after all. XD




--------------------------------------------------
Love that was told by both POV, loved the plot even thought it could have gone a bot more ... Of action , maybe .
The tears were there just right in the rim of my eyes but, barely for a few seconds but they never got out, sooooo this was nice, sweet, passionate ...no so dark I think, but those dialogues...gosh!
Full rev to come! Liked it very much
