Laced in Drama

Laced in Malice- Riley Gray

There is definitely a ton of drama in this book. So if you wanna go on a small roller coaster then I suggest reading it! It ended with a cliff hanger so, I'm not sure how I feel about this book. I liked it but I didn't like where it left off. There were time when. Wanted to punch Oliver and Zara. They were morons at times. But they were super cute and steamy as well :)

 My favorites parts of this book were definitely the banter between Zara (Rose) and Oliver. I usually read ebooks so that when I read them, I can highlight without damaging the book as well as portability. I find myself highlighting a lot in this book. 

 “I’m saying that I’m drawn to you like objects are to gravity.”

 “So be a bird or a plane or something and defy it.”

 “Ergh, go away, Oliver.” I snatched my bag back from him. “Just once I’d like to have a conversation with you that you didn’t turn into some kind of sexual reference.” 

“Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to happen.” 

“Pig.” 

“Keep calling me names, Rose, it’s only turning me on.” 

“Goodbye, Oliver!” I said, marching away.

 “Did my heart love till now?” Oliver called behind me. 

“Forswear it, sight! For I never saw true beauty till this night. See! I can be romantic.”

 “Quoting something from a book isn’t romantic,” I shouted back to him without turning. 

“Up your game, Oliver.” 

“For you, baby, anything!” I laughed and shook my head. 

Idiot 

 My least favorite parts were the Voice and the main antagonist who I won't mention by name :/ That bitch. I also didn't like how emotionally unstable I felt waiting for something to mess up a happy ending. However, by the end, I very much liked Oliver and Zara. I need to read the next book though, because it feels like an awful unsatisfying ending.

 All in all, it was good! I read it in a day, first because I couldn't put it down and then half way through because I HAD to know what happened. 

 If you get a chance, I'd say go for it. I've read else where that its like Pretty Little Liars and Gossip Girl wrapped together in a steamy embrace. I'd say I agree. There aren't many books I hate, and this one isn't one of them. I just dislike all the drama. But if you like drama, then you will LOVE this book. 

 TTFN,

This book will be Easy for you to love!

 Easy by Tammara Webber

Tammara uses lots of dialogue mixed with just enough detail to envision the story. Which is sort of perfect seeing as that fits with the attention span of pretty much every girl I know. She didn't so much flattery me with her words and she did with her storyline.

The characters were believable. I liked that while Jacqueline (not Jackie) is a young college girl, she takes the time to learn how to defend herself and does not end up being a Mary Sue type character. I also like that unlike most guys, Lucas cultivates the strong woman attribute without losing his "manliness".

As book lovers, we read and love lots of book but every once in awhile, one comes along and knocks you off your feet. "Easy" was one of them. I have to say that I absolutely loved this book! I couldn't put it down! It's the first book I've read that is in a college setting, which is awesome because almost all of the YA books are set in high school. The change of pace was refreshing.

Lucas is my new dream guy. He's a hot badass with a past who doesn't care what people think, as well as a guy who loves the arts, and believes that chivalry isn't completely dead. He wasn't one of those guys who didn't know what he wanted and constantly changed his mind and then went into a corner and cried, like so many others. THANK GOD! I'm tired of guys being indecisive dumbasses. Basically he's a good man and a total bad boy, if you get my drift ;) And he rides a motorcycle and has tattoos! *swoon*

This is definitely going in my top 10 books.

My only wish is that this wasn't a stand alone book, but alas, I have no genie, and my wishes will not be granted, but as a stand alone, it still left me satisfied with the ending.

I'll probably check out a few more college scene books and more from Tammara Webber so no worries, I'll keep you posted ;)

As Always,
