In the universe where The Jewel,by Amy Ewing , takes place the world works in a different way. There are rings of social living areas, the poorest being the marsh on the outer ring and the richest in the center called the jewel. The jewel houses the royals who are incapable of carrying their own children and use surrogates who posses powers to enhance the their child. These surrogates with a special gene mutation come from the marsh and are taken from their home as soon as they hit puberty, then they are trained in their powers for years. After they complete their training they’re sold like furniture at an auction to woman who want children. The story centers around Violet, a surrogate who is bought by the “duchess of the lake” and you follow her through her struggles. Be it through the secret love affair that can get her killed or her plans to escape. This story is a captivating read, I stayed up to the wee hours of the morning finishing it and I loved it it can’t wait for number two and neither will you once you read it. You can pick this book, the first in the lone city series, up in September 2014! Enjoy!

The fault in our stars review
The fault in our stars, by john green is a phenomenal book! I can’t begin to describe it’s beauty accurately, however I shall try. Cancer miracle, Hazel meets cancer remission boy, Augustus, their’s is a tale of star Crossed lovers, a true tragedy. Hazel and Augustus meet at a support group for kids with cancer and at first Gus feels like he’s seen a ghost when he sees hazel. However, they become fast friends, but shortly after they bond Gus wants something more, he falls in love with her and she him “slowly then all at once” they have some amazing times together, picnicking , talking about an imperial affliction (hazels favorite book she showed Gus), and going on an adventure to Amsterdam. However this is a tragic story’s and how all tragedies go, a catastrophe strikes and worlds are crushed to shambles leaving shards of sharp glass in it’s wake. This book while beautiful, is absolutely heartbreaking, it makes you ponder the meaning of life and human fragility. I absolutely loved this book to the point I had to stop reading everything else I was to finish it, I would recommend this to any person who has the ability to read. It is absolute breathtaking and even though it is quite sad, I don’t regret reading this captivating book. Enjoy!

The iron trials are a series of magical tests to determine if students in the real world posses enough magical power to be admitted to the school called the Magisterium. In the Magisterium young magic users study under the great mages as their apprentices and learn to control and use their powers. In this story Callum, the protagonist had a mother who dies in the third war of the mages and because of that his father wanted callum to have nothing to do with the school, however even after flunking the test on purpose as his father wishes he is admitted to the school
Against his and his fathers wishes. Call (short for Callum) studies under the Mage Rufus with fellow students Tamara and Aaron who become friends after a month or so. Together they endure grueling and tedious tasks given to them by Rufus and monthly combat testing. If that’s not enough rumors about another Mage war with “the enemy” is brewing. This book is full of action, adventure, rivalry and friendship. Now it’s no city of bones so don’t expect it to be. it’s a totally different concept, but ingenious at the same time. I thoroughly enjoyed reading every single page and I hope you will to so don’t forget to pick it up on September 9, 2014!! Enjoy!

Ink, by Amanda sun
Ink isn’t your typical girl meets boy story, oh no. It just so happens that the boy is a descendent of the Japanese gods called kami and the girl is an American in Japan living with her aunt and going to a regular Japanese school just months after her mother died. The girls name is Katie green and in this totally new world she’s an outsider looking in and barely even understanding the story, she’s grasping at straws until she meets the mysterious Tomohiro and sees his drawings come to life. She stalks him down until he receipts his secret to her and she doesn’t run away when he pushes her, they grow closer and closer and Tomo’s powers become even more powerful and untamable with each moment he spends with Katie, but that’s not the worst of their problems, people want Tomo and not for anything good.
This book is amazing!! I couldn’t put it down it captivated me in a way nothing else could. I think it’s because I relate to Katie being in a new place and not understanding the language or culture, but it also because of the amazing story and how it’s portrayed though an elegant and lovely writing style that even incorporated Japanese to make the story that more authentic! I give this story 6 stars out of 5 it blew me away and I think everyone should read this book I can’t wait for rain (the second book in the paper god series) to come out in a few weeks! Enjoy!

Consumed by Julia crane
Keegan’s been through a wild ride , she met her mate before she should have, lost their bond to dark magic and dated a tiger(no joke). Now that the bond is back for Keegan (thanks to her brother and Anna) she and Rourk begin to grow closer. However, Keegan’s school is all the way in Alaska while Rourk is stationed in Washington state, but that’s easily fixed. In the beginning he visited her in Alaska on his days off of training, but after her semester ended she transferred schools to be closer to him. They then do all the things couples do, move in together, get a pet, and get married eventually although Keegan wanted to go against elfin tradition and wait until after she is 18. This book lacks a huge antagonist like the other ones, but it focuses on the characters lives. It gives you closure and leaves you with a fizzy feeling when you’re finished. I loved this book and both before it I hope she continues the series! I recommend this to anyone and everyone. Enjoy!

Keeping her book review
In this novella the events of “losing it” by Cora Carmack are continued. Bliss and Garrick are happily engaged and now she gets to meet his parents….yay. Well to say the least she gets to know why he doesn’t talk about mommy and daddy too much. This book is just as good as the first and just as sweet it’s realistic because there are some snags and bumps. We will get to see that keeping love might not be as easy as it is to find. However, in the end they do love each other. I would defer barely recommend this book if you’ve read the first one and if you haven’t you really need to!! It’s an amazing book that will make you smile, cringe, cry ,and laugh. Enjoy!
