Die For You By Amy Fellner Dominy Published By: Delacorte on November 8th 2016 Genres: Young Adult, Contemporary, Romance Pages: 304 Purchase: Amazon – Kindle Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆ Theirs was the perfect love story. After Emma Lorde’s parents’ divorce forces her to move halfway across the state of Arizona to live with her father, Emma must face her senior year in a new school knowing absolutely no one. Then she meets Dillon Hobbs, and something just clicks. Dillon introduces Emma to friends she can call her own. He provides a refuge from the chaos of her past, and the security of a commitment that he promises will last forever. And because circumstances of her messy life forced Emma to put aside her dream of pursuing archaeology, Dillon creates a blueprint for a future together. He saves her, over and over, by loving her more than she thought anyone ever would. But just when everything seems picture-perfect, Emma is offered an opportunity that will upend the future they’ve planned. Unce

Dating You/Hating You By Christina Lauren Published By: Gallery Books on June 6th 2017 Genres: Romance, Adult, Contemporary Pages: 350 Purchase: Amazon – Kindle Rating: ☆☆☆☆ Despite the odds against them from an embarrassing meet-awkward at a mutual friend’s Halloween party, Carter and Evie immediately hit it off. Even the realization that they’re both high-powered agents at competing firms in Hollywood isn’t enough to squash the fire. But when their two agencies merge—causing the pair to vie for the same position—all bets are off. What could have been a beautiful, blossoming romance turns into an all-out war of sabotage. Carter and Evie are both thirtysomething professionals—so why can’t they act like it? Can Carter stop trying to please everyone and see how their mutual boss is really playing the game? Can Evie put aside her competitive nature long enough to figure out what she really wants in life? Can their actor clients just be something close to human? Whether these two Hol

This Is Where It Ends By Marieke Nijkamp Published By: Sourcebooks Fire on January 5th 2016 Genres: Young Adult, Contemporary Pages: 285 Purchase: Amazon – Kindle Rating: ☆☆☆ 10:00 a.m. The principal of Opportunity High School finishes her speech, welcoming the entire student body to a new semester and encouraging them to excel and achieve. 10:02 a.m. The students get up to leave the auditorium for their next class. 10:03 a.m. The auditorium doors won’t open. 10:05 a.m. Someone starts shooting. Told from four different perspectives over the span of fifty-four harrowing minutes, terror reigns as one student’s calculated revenge turns into the ultimate game of survival. I picked it up because it’s a kind of book I’ve never read before. It was a real quick read and it was very intriguing to get to experience this terrible time with these characters. Although the story was sad, I didn’t love it. It didn’t feel the heart wrenching pain that the characters did. I didn’t cry once. I did

September TBR:

I’m going to attempt this again. I need to get caught up with my reading and I need to read at least four books a month. Here’s to hoping I can stay off Youtube and just read! Two of these books have been sitting on my shelf for quite some time. I think it’s about time they get read! The other two are relatively new. I think I got them in July. Here’s to hoping I can narrow down my TBR!
