The Light Tamer Trilogy #1


The Light Tamer
     ****WARNING**** This book contains a love story. Yes, there is"instalove", but there's so much more than love. There's a beautiful friendship between an unlikely pair, and a grandma who will keep you laughing. This is a YOUNG ADULT book ages 13+ Do you believe in faeries? This is meant for ages 13 and up.

     A move from the Bronx in New York, to New Bern, North Carolina, is not what Jessie Lucente planned before her junior year. Her selfish alcoholic father left for Greece, causing her mom to make the decision to move. Fate has a way of aligning our life to meet its correct path, and this is no coincidence to be ignored.

     Jessie is faithful to two things, her "THIS SUCKS" list, and her friend Jersey. How could she not know about Light Tamers? How could she not know SHE'S a Light Tamer? Caleb, her true mate - the one who has been bound to her, will hold her hand along the way to discovery. They will soon find out the world of Tamers is more complicated than expected. Their relationship is sweet, complicated, strained, and full of gooey kisses and teen angst.


Review
I loved this book. And it's not my first time reading it. Though the first time I read this book, the trilogy wasn't complete so I didn't get to finish the whole story.

I love when authors come up with new concepts for books. And Light Tamers sure is something different.

Even though I'm much older than the protagonists, I didn't see this book as too juvenile or the characters too childish. I loved them. Jessie is a lovable character and Caleb is a great guy.

The book does have a feel of insta-love but also of first love and even though there's the whole soulmate thing, we do get a feel of how a teenager would feel, doubt and fear in a first relationship.

I liked the whole supernatural aspect also mixed with a little bit of mythology which I love.

And now I can finally read the rest of this trilogy \o/

Revive series #1 Revive Some memories fade. Some memories fight back. Since the tragic accident that stole her parents, sixteen-year-old amnesiac Cat Lindensen lives each day with only faint memories of the last. But after her uncle abruptly uproots their L.A. lives for the lush forests of Oregon, even Cat begins to notice the shadows that stalk her steps. Frightening hallucinations, flash growth spurts, and a debilitating reaction to iron leave Cat fearing for her mind. No one notices Cat's struggles more than the strange new boy Card Thomas, namely because he triggers them. The touch of his skin sends Cat into consuming visions of magic, monsters, and even her own lost past. But while Cat clings to the world she thought she lived in, she can't help but fall in love with a truth she can't explain--even as she's falling into the arms of an old friend with more secrets than she ever knew. Revived to the supernatural world around her, Cat must bend the lines betwe...

Review: Touched by Grace

Touched by Grace by Alicia Rades My rating: 5 of 5 stars This was a great book and we finally get to see Ryn learning more about how to control and use her powers and also finally learning to trust her instincts and be a bit more confident about her destiny. We also get to finally see some romantic development too, and I like how it was written, made me like Ryn and Marek even more. There are some things unexpected and the end just make you want to keep reading. Can't wait for the next one! I asked for an ARC from the author and I'm giving my honest review of it.
