Forever (Book 3 in the Mercy Falls Trilogy) by Maggie Stiefvater

Hi ForeverBookers,

A great finale! 

This book had it all! It did have a few boring slow moments but it also had fast paced action moments. I love some romance as well and that was in there too. 

While this book did have a few slower sections as I wrote above it did have short chapters, which I appreciated as I could read them easily without having to put the book down. All of the Shiver series had short chapters actually. This kept me really gripped to the story in this case. The last 100 pages or so really had me gripped...I stayed up until late to finish the book. 

Forever carries on and finishes what Shiver and Linger start. Read those books before you read the rest of this review because there are slight SPOILERS! 

Grace is still a wolf where Forever starts. Sam wants her to be human (like him at that point of time). He and Isabel and Cole (two characters from in Linger) try to find Grace but they are unable to find her at first. When they do find her she stays with Sam at the estate that the werewolves live on when they're human. Isabel's father wants to kill all of the wolves for so say killing her brother (if you've read Shiver and Linger then you know what really happened). This is bad because Sam doesn't know if he'll be able to keep Grace or Cole human for long enough. We can really see a friendship developing between Sam and Cole in this book. 
We see the problematic relationship between Grace and her parents come to fruition as well as killing's and savings as well. 

I give this book 4.75 out of 5 stars because it really was a read full of emotion, drama, comedy and supernatural. The first time I read it I can remember feeling it was good but not as great as this time reading it. That goes for the whole Shiver series. I don't think I really appreciated it for what it was back when I was younger. I'm really glad I've reread it now. 

Stand by for my next TBR tub pick. I wonder what it'll be...

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...

Larchfield by Polly Clark Review

Hi ForeverBookers, I've just finished Larchfield. It was a good story of hope, loss, finding oneself and redemption. I believe this is a standalone also.  I got Larchfield through NetGalley so thanks to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read it! It releases on March 23rd 2017!  NOTE: there are adult situations in Larchfield!  3 Stars!  Larchfield tells the story of two characters. One, Wystan is a relative of WH Auden. He's also a writer. He's going to Scotland to work at Larchfield, a boys school. We see him struggle with who he's meant to be throughout the novel. The other character is called Dora, also a writer. She's a married, pregnant woman at the beginning of Larchfield. Her and her husband have just moved house, to a place on the sea. However, not all is right with Dora who experiences set backs throughout Larchfield.  Spoilers below... Wystan is gay. We see this quite early on in the novel. Working at a boys school put...
