Review of Captivate



Title: Captivate (Need #2)
Author: Carrie Jones
Published: January 5th 2010
Pages: 273
Rating: 5/5

Summary From Goodreads:

Zara and her friends knew they hadn't solved the pixie problem for good. Far from it. The king's needs grow deeper every day he's stuck in captivity, while his control over his people gets weaker. It's made him vulnerable. And now there's a new king in town.

A turf war is imminent, since the new pixie king, Astley, is moving in quickly. Nick nearly killed him in the woods on day one, but Zara came to his rescue. Astley swears that he and Zara are destined to be together, that he's one of the good guys. Nick isn't buying it, though Zara isn't as sure -- despite herself, she wants to trust the new king. But it's a lot more than her relationship with Nick that is at stake. It's her life -- and his.

Review:

This is the second book in the Need series and if you have read the first one, this wont disappoint you. I loved the first book (NEED) and I really loved this one too! Such a good story line that will have you wanting more! It is defiantly a book you will reread over and over. I recommend this book who wants a great and easy read.

Internet finally working!! Review of If You Can See Me Now



Title: If You Can See Me Now
Author: Cecelia Ahern
Published: November 21st 2005
Pages: 336
Rating: 3/5

Summary From Goodreads:

Readers and critics alike adore Cecelia Ahern for her lighthearted yet insightful stories about modern women and their often unusual situations. In If You Could See Me Now, she takes that theme a step further, offering us a heroine who is entirely believable, and the new man in her life who is, well, slightly less so.

Elizabeth Egan's life runs on order: Both her home and her emotions are arranged just so, with little room for spontaneity. It's how she counteracts the chaos of her family -- an alcoholic mother who left when she was young, an emotionally distant father, and a free-spirited sister, who seems to be following in their mother's footsteps, leaving her own six-yearold son, Luke, in Elizabeth's care. When Ivan, Luke's mysterious new grown-up friend, enters the picture, Elizabeth doesn't know quite what to make of him. With his penchant for adventure and colorful take on things large and small, Ivan opens Elizabeth's eyes to a whole new way of living. But is it for real? Is Ivan for real?

If You Could See Me Now is a love story with heart -- and just a touch of magic.

Review:

This book is a little confusing in the beginning. I really like this book, but I was just confused for most of the book. It made me not want to finish it, but I did.The characters were great and some of them were a little funny. But I don't think this book was as great as Cecelia Ahern's other books. I would recommend PS I Love You book instead.
