Stolen 9.8/10

Stolen by Lucy Christopher

9.8/10!!!!!
This book is about a girl named Gemma who was at an airport with her parents when she met an attractive guy who, unbeknownst to her, slips a drug into her drink when she isn't looking and takes her to outback Australia. The novel is about her starting to see Ty (her captor) in a different light while she tries to deal with her new life that she can't escape from.

This book is really really really good! It is written so well I felt like it could be me who was taken. The set out of the book is so clever and it really helps to tie off the ending- which is realistic and perfect. Lucy Christopher has developed the book so your view of Ty alters as the book progresses in a way that is makes the reader (me) get Stockholm syndrome. When the book ends you really contemplate everything that happened and you keep replaying everything in your mind- its beautiful. One of those books that you feel really connected to the characters. READ READ READ READ READ READ READ READ!!!! 100% recommend! Also click on the link and have a read of the synopsis, it is very intriguing.

The ALONE Trilogy 2.5/10

The ALONE Trilogy by James Phelan 

Book 1: Chasers 2/10, Book 2: Survivor 2.5/10, Book 3: Quarrantine 3.5/10
Trilogy about a guy called Jesse who while on a UN Camp in New York, survives an explosion. The explosion however, either killed people or turned them into zombie like 'chasers' that drink blood and kill people. It is about him finding survivors and getting through the disaster.
OK holy whatthehell... The first book in this series is completely pointless. Turns out, the whole time the guy is just imagining his friends and he is actually alone, so he is back to square freaking one. It is complete bull and sh*t all that happens is he leaves the hotel twice. Spare yourself the agony and leave this series. In each book, nothing happens. He needs to be more adventurous. DO NOT RECOMMEND! No offence James, I'm sure there is somebody out there who likes it- just not this gal.

Partials Trilogy 5/10

The Partials Trilogy by Dan Wells

Book 1: Partials 5.5/10, Book 2: Fragments 4/10, Book 3: Ruins 6/10
A dystopian post-apocalyptic trilogy about a girl named Kira who lives in a world where all 20 or something thousand humans died from a deadly disease that is still killing newborn babies as the newborns are not immune- thus, the number of humans is slowly diminishing. The immune survivors live in a town on Long Island. The humans are stuck on this island because the mainland is Partial territory (partials are human-like super soldiers) and the humans are at war with them. Both races are dying- the humans babies are not immune, and the partials have an expiry date of 20 years (which is right now in the book). Kira is trying to find a cure and to do that she needs these enemies to work together and discover who the Partials really are.
This series is a real drag. I felt like Dan Wells should have just written one book because I there is so much stuff that is boring- like all the journey's she takes which are so long and irrelevant. Don't get me wrong, there are some good parts, but there are so many better choices of book series out there. The series raises too many questions and gives not enough answers so I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Wolves of Mercy Falls 8/10

The Wolves of Mercy Falls Trilogy by Maggie Stiefvater

Book 1: Shiver 8/10 Book 2: Linger 7.9/10 & Book 3: Forever 8/10
Trilogy about a girl named Grace who after being attacked by wolves as a young child, is from then on always drawn to the wolves living in the woods, especially the one with the bright yellow eyes. In the summer, Grace falls in love with a yellow-eyed boy who she discovers he is no ordinary human, but the wolf always watching her; Sam. Together they're trying stop all the things that are forcing them to be apart.

This book is so beautiful. Maggie Stiefvater has such an amazing way with words I have quotes of hers stuck all around my room. She made me laugh and cry and I love that. The series gets better as it goes along. The book is written in a duel perspective alternating between Sam and Grace (and sometimes others). Sam and Grace's relationship is so beautiful I want it for myself. Stiefvater goes into such detail of both the surrounding and the characters that the world of Mercy Falls feels so real in my head and my emotions align with the characters in the books. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing read with some nice tea while you are sitting on a hammock in a garden of roses. *Also the books are written in coloured ink which is awesome!*

NOTE: There is a spinoff kinda thing called Sinner- focusing on two of the characters in forever (the third book) which is also very good. I have written a review about it below!

Sinner by Maggie Stiefvater

8.5/10 :)
The adjoining novel to the Wolves of Mercy Falls Series. Not about Sam and Grace but Cole, the very attractive, cocky, rude rock star who is in love with Isabel, the gorgeous, snappy, independent, smart girl who is trying to make a life for herself in Los Angeles. The book is all about their relationship and ohmagod its amazing. Once again Stiefvater has outdone herself. Their relationship is so difficult but so clear- it has been constructed cleverly especially with the alternating perspective between Isabel and Cole. Also, Cole's sarcasm makes me laugh throughout the entire book and his lyrics are awesome. I wish the band he was in in the books NARKOTICA was real! YESYESYES Recommend!!!!!

The Night Creatures Trilogy 7.5/10

The Night Creatures Trilogy by Marianne de Pierres

Book 1: Burn Bright 8/10, Book 2: Angel Arias 7/10 & Book 3: Shine Light 7.5/10

Trilogy about a girl named Retra who after her brother runs away from their strict rule-bound town to the mystical land of Ixion- an island of ever-night and parties, follows his footsteps and runs away be together again. When she arrives she notices that she is different from the other teenagers in that she does not just want to party and have fun and thus the dark creatures in control of the island are suspicious of her. As she discovers the secrets of the island and forms a bond with its attractive yet evil leader she realises that there is a lot of lives at steak, including her and her brother's. 

I do recommend! Once again another addictive series that I couldn't get enough of. :) The books are structured really well and I was keen to read the next book in the series after each book. Also, this is a really good example of not judging a book by its cover (and title) because honestly, they are weird af.

Origin 7/10

Origin by Jessica Khoury

7/10 :)

Book about a girl named Pia who was scientifically engineered to be immortal. All her life she has been kept away and raised by scientists in the middle of the jungle. When she sees a guy from the outside world when she escapes one night, she realises that the scientists have been keeping dangerous secrets and Pia wants to escape. 

Really liked this book. It was well written and exciting and included a hot jungle boy who I fell in love with. I don't want to spoil anything for this book so I won't say too much on the actual story-line. This book is a quick read (I read it in a day) and a stand-alone book so if your looking for something quick to temporarily quench your reading desperation I recommend.

Inside Out Duology 4/10

Inside Out & Outside In (Two Books) by Maria V Snyder

Book 1: Inside Out 5/10 & Book 2: Outside In 4.8/10

Duology about a girl named Trella who lives in a vessel in space travelling to a habitable planet. There is a really set in social hierarchy, uppers and scrubs, with scrubs stuck doing all the boring and hard jobs and living in cramped quarters. Trella starts an uprising and challenges the authority blah blah blah these books were really boring. Maria V Snyder really let herself down compared to the Study Series (which is so amazing one of my all time favourites- check out MUST READS). I found the books really slow and pointless (sorry no offense). Do not recommend!

The Ashes Trilogy 8.5/10

The Ashes Trilogy by Ilsa J. Bick

Book 1: Ashes 8.5/10, Book 2: Shadows 8.5/10 & Book 3: 6.1/10

Distopian Trilogy about a girl with cancer named Alex who is hiking in the woods when there is an explosion. After realising that all the electronics are down Alex figures that the explosion was actually a very large EMP (electromagnetic pulse- a bigger version of the bomb Basher uses in Ocean's 11 to cut the power during fight night to allow George Clooney and Matt Damon to get into the- sorry I'm getting carried away). However, the bomb killed nearly all adults and turned most of the teens into cannibals with only the young and old surviving. The only teens to survive were those with some kind of problem that didn't allow the EMP to fry their brain- Alex had cancer. After meeting another guy her age who happens to be a really attractive babe, Tom, and a kid named Ellie. The three try to survive in this new zombie-like world. 

YOU SHOULD READ. The setting is really awesome, kind of zombie but not because the zombies are still alive. Very realistic, I feel like this could happen to us (although it won't) but you know what I mean. Only issue was with the third book, the middle of the book was told from so many different perspectives it kind of bored me. Still definitly recommend! Ignore the names of the books and you will love them.

The Rosie Black Chronicles 7/10

The Rosie Black Chronicles by Lara Morgan 

Book 1: Genesis 6/10, Book 2: Equinox 6.5/10 & Book 3: Dark Star 8/10

Trilogy set 500 years into the future about a girl who after accidentally finding a special box, gets involved with an illegal co-operation who will kill her and anyone she knows, to get it. She is forced to rely on a super super hot guy called Pip who is a feral (low on the society's hierarchy) but she doesn't know if she should trust him let alone what is going on.  

Yeah I read this book and I did get addicted in the drama but overall I just didn't feel satisfied with the series. The last book in the series- Dark Star- is obviously the best and has an awesome ending! But I wish Lara Morgan had of made the first two as good. If you are looking for a series to read in a few days that are addictive and clever but not truly life changing this is the one.

Reboot Duology 8/10

Reboot and Rebel (two books) by Amy Tintera

Book 1: Reboot 8.5/10, Book 2: Rebel 8/10

Duology about Wren, a girl who is a reboot (when after you die your body 'reboots' and you wake up again- however the longer you are dead the stronger, tougher, faster and more emotionless you are). Wren is a '178', she was dead for 178 minutes, which is the longest time out of any reboot. So pretty much she is the most badass. Wren lives under the control of the government with all the other reboots. However when Wren accepts the challenge to train a nearly human '22', Callum, who although being nowhere near as skilled as the other reboots especially herself, makes her feel something in her 'emotionlessness'. When Callum fails his new reboot duties Wren is told to eliminate him, but there is something stopping her she disobeys orders and helps her and Callum escape. 

I do recommend this book! Although there are better books out there. I felt like this book would have been more interesting a couple of years ago when I was 14 not 16, but nevertheless it is an interesting read. Also, who doesn't like a bad-ass heroine (not heroin) who doesn't take shit from anybody? Me. - - If you want an even more badass gal who is fkn awesome read Throne of Glass (I will review later).

Delirium Trilogy 9/10

Delirium Trilogy by Lauren Oliver

Book 1: Delirium 9.5/10, Book 2: Pandemonium 8.5/10 & Book 3: Requiem 9/10

Trilogy about Lena, a girl who lives in a love-expelled dystopian society where the government rules love a disease which people call 'deliria'. When you turn 18 you have to have the cure- an operation which stops you from ever loving. The story circles a girl called Lena who has always wanted to have the operation because her mum was infected with the 'disease of love' and killed herself. Yet when she meets a boy (Alex) a couple of months from her operation and starts to fall in love, she doesn't know if she actually wants to be cured. 

I really love the idea of this book (pun intended). Lauren Oliver writes really well and she set up the whole dystopian scene in an understandable way! Buuuuutt, Book 1 ends on a ohmagodwhatdafuqwhy moment- which is good because it keeps you on edge but it means that you CANNOT READ THE SERIES UNLESS YOU INTEND TO READ ALL 3. So lazy people who only read the first books of series, go away now. Overall I loved the series and I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a YA distopian romance to become addicted to. And also, the movie is coming out soon and Emma Roberts is in it so I hope its good (the trailer looks shit though).
