My Review for Torn (A Wicked Trilogy) by Jennifer Armentrout

Synopsis:

Torn between duty and survival, nothing can be the same. 

Everything Ivy Morgan thought she knew has been turned on its head. After being betrayed and then nearly killed by the Prince of the Fae, she’s left bruised and devastated—and with an earth-shattering secret that she must keep at all costs. And if the Order finds out her secret, they’ll kill her. 

Then there’s Ren Owens, the sexy, tattooed Elite member of the Order who has been sharing Ivy’s bed and claiming her heart. Their chemistry is smoking hot, but Ivy knows that Ren has always valued his duty to the Order above all else—he could never touch her if he knew the truth. That is, if he let her live at all. Yet how can she live with herself if she lies to him? 

But as the Fae Prince begins to close in, intent on permanently opening the gates to the Otherworld, Ivy is running out of options. If she doesn’t figure out who she can trust—and fast—it’s not only her heart that will be torn apart, but civilization itself.

Darra's Review:

I have been a fan of Jennifer's book for years. I like her YA/New Adult parnomal/Fantasy stories. I did not read Wicked until just a couple of weeks ago. Did love it like all the rest of her books. Why did I take a break from Jennifer?! Her books have smooth transitions from one scene to the next and her guys are always swoon worthy. Very dynamic group of characters for all her books.

So started reading Torn this past weekend. The book was great. There were so many unanswered questions that were left off from Wicked. Ivy still a badas@ with a death wish. I liked Ren from the first book. There was a fall out and you don't have him in every scene in this book. However I still love him.

And there is Tink. He is not Ren, but God I love him. He is absolutely ridiculous and adorable at the same time. If you liked him in Wicked, you L-O-V-E him in Torn. BTW-Dixon. (Shaking my head in awesomeness).

A lot happens in this book and can't for move of Ivy, Ren and Tink. Brave will be an all out war and am absolutely looking forward to it.

I rate the book a 4.5 (Waiting till 2017 impatiently!)

Read Wicked First!

BUSY BUSY AUGUST!!!

So as most of you know August is here...summer is almost over and WE ARE SO BUSY!!! There are so many things going on that Darra and I don't know if we are coming of going...ridiculous but wouldn't want it any other way. There are SO many GREAT books coming out this month!!!

So lets get started...if you have seen our FB posts we were ALL about Daemon and Katy last week with LUX series READATHON. Thanks again to the blogs that put that on (go follow them if you are not already) Stuck In Books, Just A Booklover and K-Books!!  We had a blast and it was almost like reading it for the first time again b/c so many people had different thoughts/views and loved the same parts as you. (PS I will be stalking eveyone's blog that participated!)




Tomorrow night I will be at Wicked and can't wait (so I will not be reading). Thank you again to everyone in my office for the B-Day present! I am so excited. This will be the second play I have ever been to. If you remember (or don't I have a blog post about it) my first experience was SPANK! If that comes to your city go see it...I laughed until I cried!


We posted on the Adult Page a review for Taken by You on the Adult Page. If you have not seen it, go check it out. That series is FREAKING awesome and CRAZY! I liked it a lot more than I thought I would and I am seriously kinda hung up on Neil...YUMMY!  We also have 3 more reviews coming this week (told you BUSY!) Two are tomorrow and one on Friday so keep a look out!  We also have 4 or 5 more blog tours this month not to mention several cover reveals...so...again keep watching for new stuff!

One of our first blogs EVER was a reveiw of The Coincidence of Callie and Kayden by Jessica Sorensen. Just in case you don't remember (and I don't want to go back and look see what my blogs looked like from
back then) I will give you a recap...I LOVED the book. I could not wait for The Redemption of Callie and Kayden. I loved that Kayden had problems too. He came across as the super HOT, PERFECT football star.  So anyways...LOVE the book. Guess what came out July 30???? That's right...THE REDEMPTION OF CALLIE AND KAYDEN!!!  I can't tell you what I think b/c I will have a review up soonish...


The next book out this month that I am so READY to read is LOVE ME by Jillian Dodd! This is another series that I have done several posts on. If you have not read any of them WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!??!!?? Get on it! Keatyn is a teenager and she has problems. A stalker and WAY too many boys to deal with. So basically her "perfect" life (like anyone has a perfect life but everyone thinks she does) is pulled out from under her and she has to survive by herself. So this is the 4th installment and I have been chomping at the bit to get my hands on this book! So this book comes out on August 11 and it will be a who is up at midnight with me to download ASAP.  If you have not gotten into this series Stalk Me is on sale on bn.com for $0.99. GO GET IT!  Yes, I know you are waiting...here is my plug for Jillian's other series! THAT BOY and THAT WEDDING are AWESOME!!! Phillip has been THE NUMBER 1 book boyfriend since that read and NOBODY has dethroned him yet!!! Danny is freaking awesome too and if I couldn't have Phillip I would DEFINITELY take Danny. (BTW Darra and I just had a good 5 minute trip down PHILLIP LANE with lots of *SIGHS*) I mean Jillian can definitely write some awesome boys. I mean lets look at Keatie's Boys...CUSH, AIDEN (The God of All Hotties), Dawson (YUMMY) and apparently a new bodyguard/soccer coach in this new book...so jealous...where were these boys when I was in high school??

LAST and certainly not least...ORIGIN by Jennifer L. Armentrout comes out August 27th!!!! CAN'T WAIT!!! So we did the Lux Readathon last weekend and all I can think about is getting my hands on this book. I will be out of comminsion for the day it will take me to read this book. I am going to try to drag it out for at least 2 days but lets be honest...not gonna happen! If you haven't read this series...do it. I put it off b/c I was like "Seriously Darra. Aliens? Come on!" As usual she was right...ALIENS!!!


I think that is all that is going on this month...OH WAIT!!! Just in case Darra and I were not busy enough we joined Fantasy Football today...SOOOOOOO...yeah...we are CRAZY! (I need help with my Team Name so if you have any ideas...I love the Colts and Peyton Manning....)  I am also sure more stuff will happen b/c SOMEONE agrees to blog tours without looking at the calendar and stickies!!!! (not naming names)
