Starcrossed Series Review (No Spoilers)!

Hi ForeverBookers, 

Sorry I haven't been here recently. I've been too busy for reading :(. I've read the Starcrossed series, but this'll just be a quick series review as I didn't have time to review each book. 

Starcrossed (I have an indidual review for this but I thought I'd write another and put it with the others)...4 stars
This book was good as it focused on real life and there wasn't much of the mythological element. I think it's hard to write about Greek/Roman myths as no one knows what really happened. The romance in this book was okay. There wasn't too much to overwhelm the book as the title might suggest as when I see the word Starcrossed, I automatically think Starcrossed lovers.
The writing in this book was good. But the chapters were too long I thought. 

Dreamless...3 stars. 
This was the book that I had the most issues with in the trilogy. The story introduced a new male character that was meant to portray a rival love interest for the lead female character. I didn't like this book because it was too heavily focused on the new male character and the lead female's relationship. 
The story was okay. The lead female character has a mystery to work out and save the world from appocolipse. 

Goddess...4 stars
This book was better than the second and probably better than the first for me. This book was more focused on the secondary characters but still had its primary focus on the lead female trying to save the world. 
There were a few mistakes in this book but I still enjoyed it. 

Overall the series was a 3.75 stars for me! 

Look out to see what I'll be reading next soon...

City Of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments Book 2) by Cassandra Clare Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  I've just finished reading City Of Ashes and it was really good! I've read this book before again and I didn't think it was very good last time but now I think differently. It had everything from fighting demons, to laugh out loud parts, to heartfelt moments. The story starts from where City Of Bones finished so there will be minor spoilers below.  The characters continue developing in this second book. For example, Clary's best friend, Simon really takes on a new role as a vampire, as well as the other characters maturing too. This was good to see as it gave the story different levels that we haven't seen before. I especially enjoyed reading about Simon's transformations. There's a new character called Maia, who is a werewolf. There's some antagonism between Simon and her as in this series vampires and werewolves don't get on.   We meet Alec and Isabelle's parents here. Maryse, their mother is a strong character, who is angry...

Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  How are you all today? I've just finished a great contemporary book! 4 Stars! NOTE: There are scenes of abuse and bullying in Big Little Lies so if you're sensitive about either of those topics this book maybe isn't for you.  Big Little Lies tells several stories at once. There's the story about the trivia night that runs throughout, the story of who one of the main character's father is, the story of an abuse victim, a story of a teenage girl putting her virginity up for sail in the internet and the main story for most of the book, little children lying about who bullied another child. All these stories were handled well.  We see the characters, both major and minor be interviewed throughout because of the murder that happened on trivia night. I'll be honest in saying that at the beginning of the book I thought that another character had been killed so it was a surprise to read what actually had happened.  Spoilers belo...

American Royals (#1 American Royals) by Katharine McGee review

Hey ForeverBookers,   I’ve just finished American Royals by Katherine McGee and I LOVED it! If you love scandal and complicated love stories in a contemporary setting, then you will love it as well! Think a royal version of Gossip Girl and you have this book in a nutshell. American Royals follows six characters, all of the new adult age range that come together to create a story of intrigue and romance. There isn’t high action or really a plot outside of the romance which was fine with me as I really enjoy stories just focused on the romance. I appreciated how “American Royals” only focused on the six different characters. There weren’t loads of personalities to get to know, and they all followed the same pattern as they’re all from or have grown up around a certain standing in society. This made the characters easy to follow and understand. It is a character led story, without as I said, much plot.  What there is of a plot of American Royals is taken up with the ascension of ...
