On Tour with Prism Book Tours Sword of Soter (Sacred Armor Trilogy #2) By Ralene Burke YA Fantasy, Christian Paperback & ebook, 275 Pages September 25th 2019 by Elk Lake Publishing Inc NEW KINGDOM. NEW FRIENDS. NEW DANGERS. NOT EVERYONE CAN BE TRUSTED … Karina, Tristian, Rashka, and Sam venture forth into the wilderness of Soter on the next leg of their quest to retrieve the Armor of the Creator. With the ancient evil already affecting the kingdom, nothing in Soter is what it seems—from what skulks beneath the canopies of the woods to what lies within the sleek white and gold of the capitol city to the people Karina and Tristan have known since they were children. Danger lurks around every corner. Discerning who to trust is paramount to staying alive and discovering the location of the Temple of Soter.

Book Review: What's Left of Me by Kat Zhang

Title:  What's Left of Me Author:  Kat Zhang Series:  The Hybrid Chronicles, #1 Pages:  343 Publisher:  HarperCollins Children's Date of Publication:  27th September 2012 Source:  Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: Imagine that you have two minds, sharing one body. You and your other self are closer than twins, better than friends. You have known each other forever. Then imagine that people like you are hated and feared. That the government want to hunt you down and tear out your second soul, separating you from the person you love most in the world. Now meet Eva and Addie. They don’t have to imagine. My Thoughts: I didn't really know what to expect from this book. What I'd heard about it was good, but there'd been no hype, as far as I'm aware, so I didn't really expect amazing things. It's always the books that I don't expect to get anything amazing from that blow me away. It really was so very, very good. At first, it's a bit confusing, while...

Book Review: Unspoken by Sarah Rees Brennan

Title:  Unspoken Author:  Sarah Rees Brennan Series:  The Lynburn Legacy, #1 Pages:  370 Publisher:  Simon & Schuster Children's Date of Publication:  27th September 2012 Source:  Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: Kami Glass loves someone she’s never met . . . a boy she’s talked to in her head ever since she was born. She wasn’t silent about her imaginary friend during her childhood, and is thus a bit of an outsider in her sleepy English town of Sorry-in-the-Vale. Still, Kami hasn’t suffered too much from not fitting in. She has a best friend, runs the school newspaper, and is only occasionally caught talking to herself. Her life is in order, just the way she likes it, despite the voice in her head. But all that changes when the Lynburns return. The Lynburn family has owned the spectacular and sinister manor that overlooks Sorry-in-the-Vale for centuries. The mysterious twin sisters who abandoned their ancestral home a generation ago are back, a...

Book Review: Zom-B by Darren Shan

Title:  Zom-B Author:  Darren Shan Series:  Zom-B, #1 Pages:  217 Publisher:  Simon & Schuster Children's Date of Publication:  27th September 2012 Source:  Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: Zom-B is a radical new series about a zombie apocalypse, told in the first person by one of its victims. The series combines classic Shan action with a fiendishly twisting plot and hard-hitting and thought-provoking moral questions dealing with racism, abuse of power and more. This is challenging material, which will captivate existing Shan fans and bring in many new ones. As Darren says, "It's a big, sprawling, vicious tale...a grisly piece of escapism, and a barbed look at the world in which we live. Each book in the series is short, fast-paced and bloody. A high body-count is guaranteed!" My Thoughts: Having just finished reading Pride & Prejudice for school, I needed something short and kind of silly to read to get back into reading YA properly agai...
