Review: Faking It

Faking It by Madeleine Labitan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Spoilers? Not so much probably will be a few! Though!

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

Okay! This book was really good. I wasn't even disappointed at all with this book. I finished it in two days. I was glad that it was good enough to finish that fast!

I thought Grayson probably liked Indie to begin with even though he was dodging her request to fake date her. He finally gave in when they both saw Brad with Daphne...

In the end, I also knew that they both would've fallen for each other, and Brad only acted on his feelings towards Indie again because he saw her with someone new "Grayson" who he was jealous of and hated. Well, they both hated each other.

Plus, Brad, to me, only broken up with Indie because he probably thought Daphne had something better. But at least he realizes that he wasn't getting Indie back and push things with Daphne. And Indie finally realizes that Grayson did like her, and they fix that half-broken relationship.

P.S. But I can say I am waiting on the next book to this series. I know it's going to be about Indie's best friend, aka Grayson sister Allie and Gray's best friend Duane... the book called "Risking It"... I think so I'm going to be on the lookout for that one

Review: Boys with Toys 3

Boys with Toys 3 by Sky McCoy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I don’t understand how it’s name boys with Toys

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

**spoilers*** throughout this review***

When I first started this book, I was confused because I didn’t understand the book, nor did it relate to the description. But once I was halfway through, I got an understanding; because Taylor and Payton have flashbacks of how they meet. I thought for sure it was going to be base on Taylor's friend Max... I was like what in the world.

But I glad it turned out better than my confused mind could handle when I first started. I could tell that Payton had a lot of jealousy with him. When it came to Taylor, you could tell by how he acted when it came to Dylan. I was glad that Payton did leave. Because it showed Taylor that he cared more about Payton and his feeling not only that he didn’t have any feelings there for Dylan anymore.... since he felt some type of way about Dylan during Max and Jamie's wedding. Not only that. I felt like Dylan was a petty man; he was aiming to get Taylor back, not only that he wanted Taylor to cheat on Payton. I was glad that he didn’t, especially when Taylor woke up at Dylan’s house after getting drunk at that LGBT 🏳️‍🌈 night club.

Half the time, I felt like Dylan was following Taylor. But I was also glad that Payton told his mom that he was gay and was married to a man. She not only learned about him being gay... she also met his husband Taylor when Taylor finally went to find him. But what got me was how Payton saw Taylor at the club with Jay. He got jealous. I was like ain’t he in the club with Elliott? He was ridiculous on that part because they both were living with men who they weren’t doing anything with, smh!

I also thought that maybe Payton was gay but didn’t know it until he met Taylor. Because no way someone would date some girl or gay then dates the same gender as them. Unless that is what they wanted, but I was glad in the end, Taylor got his husband back and decided to go to counseling to work on themselves and their marriage.


But after reading this, I want a book with Elliot and Jay. Plus, will Taylor adopt Jay? I hope so!

Review: Dating: On the Rebound: Eastridge Heights Basketball Players Book 2

Dating: On the Rebound: Eastridge Heights Basketball Players Book 2 by Stephanie Street
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I don’t think it was really a rebound; but since he broke it off with Trina. It seems that way!

***Not sure about spoilers in this review; but it might be a few***

Okay! I enjoyed this story... I have also been waiting on this story since I started the first book with Noah's two best friends, Drew and Piper. Since I saw how she (Tierney) acted towards Noah when she learned they were lab parents in the book "Dating: One on One," then learning why she acted that way in this one with her in Noah... I see why; because she liked him a lot. He cared; about her once he got to know her and been around her for a while... since they were lab partners to working on homecoming together.

I could tell people kept putting those two together. Plus, his family liked Tierney's. She was way better than Trina ever were for Noah. You could tell Trina wasn't right in the head from how she treated Noah to what she did to Tierney. I was glad when Noah finally told his dad what happened to make a bullying hotline that will help other students, not only that used Lizzy's name as the hotline. I really liked that. That is one thing; I never understood why people wait until something bad happened for them to do something. Like with Piper, people knew she was bullied, and with Tierney, people knew she was bullied up until Lizzy took her life, and Piper got kidnapped those guys, and that girl didn't get repercussions for there actions.

In the end, I was glad that Tierney realized she couldn't run from her feelings for Noah, and that it wasn't his fault when it came to what Trina did. All that was on Trina... after all that happened at the dance, it seemed like Trina left them alone too, which is a good thing!

••Not many spoilers but there's a few***

I’m still stuck on the fact... if I read a book about a tall girl... the author makes it seem like the girl can never find clothing or shoes. 🤣 Like the lies that be in this book... because real life there are clothing for women/girls who’s 5’9 to 5’11 even 6 feet and up women. Half the time, guys love tall females. Plus, most tall women wear men and women shoes tf! Lol!!! I roll my eyes at stuff like this. But do enjoy that I’m reading a book about a tall female. Because half the time I read a book with a female who’s 5’ foot something! 🥱🙄... 9/10 they are complaining 🤣🤣🤣.... mostly about skinny women/girls... but hey this book good though!!!

When reading this book I think half the guys pick at her about her height might have a crush, but scared to ask her out, so they say mean things. Since; they may be scared of her twin, Luck might think if they ask her out!!!! Heck, Drew doesn’t give two flying sheep about her height; he in love with her long legs 🤣 and happy he doesn’t have to pick her up! Lol!

You could tell that Drew aka Andrew (real name) parents are full of it and I understood why he didn’t want Piper to meet his family (parents) I think he felt at least he met Kitty aka Mary (real name).. that was enough until his ex Blair popped up and ruined things. But at least Noah understood and let Piper go with him (Drew) and let him explain his side of the story because I came to realize Piper to jump the gun before... before thinking anything through. She will run instead of talking.

Also, I knew that Jack was a piece of crap.. and was going to come back for her after everybody left. I had a feeling the same thing that happened with those other girls would happen to Piper... they said it was easy to get her. But the only reason that happened was that she left her phone. If she didn’t, they wouldn’t have kidnapped her. I was glad that Luke had a tracker that he could track where his twin was at... that’s a reason why I keep mines on because you never know what will happen... and also you can lose your phone and find it by a tracker...

But in the end, I was glad things turn out good for both of them. Drew ended up playing basketball for the high school team.. (though it was shocking that he was a basketball star), and he finally admitted his feelings for Piper and stopped pushing his feelings away from her...

Review: Kiss Me Again

Kiss Me Again by Emma Hart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There's a possibility there will be a few spoilers.

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

Okay, not much I could say. About this book even after I read it. This review may end up being short since I don't have much to say about it.

Only thing I am going to say that... I am glad that both Ethan and Ava finally got together. Because in both her best friend's books Reagan and Halley. She had feelings for her brother Leo's best friend, Ethan. & turns out her brother Leo knew that they both had feelings for each other.

Not only did he lied about him having a two-bedroom apartment (which he stated he had a one-bedroom) that where I'm getting to... he lied about the two-bedroom apartment he had was a one-bedroom so that he could set up Ethan In Ava apartment. Not only that I don't understand how Ethan couldn't realize that Leo knew he liked her when he told him during the text messages between him and his best friend about stealing Ava socks. I guess he was in so much of a denial that he didn't see that truth there.

Until Ava went on that date with Butler and Ethan, turn out to be so jealous that he finally admitted to his best friend Leo about his feeling for his (Leo) sister Ava... I was glad when that happened because I was tired of there games and that tug a war that they were having...

At least it turned out to be a happy ending!!!!

btw: I'm wondering if Ava's brother Leo going to have a book. Idk why I keep thinking he was going to end up with that girl who passed out at Ava's job!!! & had to go to the hospital...

Good Read!

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

***Maybe a possibility of a few spoilers***

I liked this book. It turned out pretty good. Though I got a little bored!!!

I liked how Issac still cared but was showing Georgia, like regardless of what happened when we were younger. I still love you, and I knew you weren’t ready.

Yes, I agree with Georgia. It’s surprising that Isaac never dislikes or hated her. But I felt like she could’ve at least called him way before ten years happened. I don’t think that Issac shouldn’t call her since she was the one that broke up with him...

But at least, in the end, they both work things out he got this marriage proposal accepted and not denied... and he got his girl back. & she Georgia realize that she still had feelings for Issac... she only got back with him with the help of her mother..... which in the end work...

Review: A Favor for a Favor

A Favor for a Favor by Helena Hunting
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

***There's a possibility that there will be a lot of spoilers in my review***
https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

I got to read this book before it comes out...

“A Favor For A Favor by Helena Hunting” comes out on January 28th.

I’m well. I was excited to get to read this book a bit early, and I wasn’t disappointed at all...

I got this book as an ARC from NetGalley. So I will be writing my honest review and my thoughts on this book (mostly the characters).

So with that being said... I say that I couldn’t stand her ex-boyfriend Joey... he was such a lame. I was still waiting on her to get her money back from him... but that never happened. & also; he got karma dead-@$$ in his lap... because of what he did to Stevie when he cheated on her birthday. The Aly and AJ song - Potential Breakup Song” kept popping in my head for some reason.

I didn’t like the fact that Bishop was mean to her but also understood how he thought RJ was cheating on his wife.. but common sense would’ve told him something wasn’t right and why was she still there and flirting with him lol!!! Also, RJ was mean to Bishop, even Alex, and his teammates, especially when everyone thought he was an f^€£ up from the stop. Because his mouth always got him in trouble. But even his brother knew that he cared for Stevie when he (Bishop)was in denial of his feeling for her his best friend (King) also caught on to how he felt.

I was glad in the end that RJ stopped being an @$$ towards Bishop and understood and learned that both Bishop and Stevie cared about one another. They more than liked each other they loved one another.

Also, Joey was still a @$$hat when he popped up during the time she went swimming. I was glad when she finally told him off... but man I died when she mentioned what she mentioned about his feet. 🤣... about them being hairy. Gosh, I was like how in the world did she ever date that man yuck. No way I could date somebody with hairy feet; I can’t even deal with hairy chest yuck... I guess she did ONLY date him to feel needed or whatever. When her father died.

Besides all of that and both of them, Bishop and Stevie ended up happy. I was glad that his brother Nolan actually considered his life more and turned everything around. After his talk with Stevie, I think that’s what he needed. Most of the time, your family would listen to an outsider more than they do you... even though some don’t listen to either. I was glad he did... not only that he found love too; he Stevie friend Pattie... I thought that was cute.

Before I end this review. I am going to say this...

***I can’t wait for “A Secret for A Secret” to read King's story cause that kid and his freaking milk gets me every time. I also think he’s going to change a lot after whatever he finds out that wasn’t good to be true. With his situations, I believe that Jessica cheated on him, tbh, and I can’t wait for that book to come out, and he finds love. Not only that, I already Bishop going to give him hell 🤣... just because of what King agreed to and said when Bishop and RJ had that fight by the dumpsters lol.

Review: If I Were a Rich Girl

If I Were a Rich Girl by Sherri Renee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Pretty good!!!!

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

*** There are a few spoilers in this review**

Sooo, okay, this book was good. I would've finished this book yesterday, but I had other important things to do. I am glad I finally finished because after a while I get tired lol. But the book was good; I didn't know if I'll finish it until I started!

I wouldn't say I liked the fact that Rinidi had to pretend to be someone else for her to make friends. I think if she would've been herself from the beginning, she would've still had friends. She probably would've gotten Tyler or maybe even had a crush on him.... though; he probably wouldn't have talked to her.

But I do understand that she had to do what she had to do. With trying to fit in because she felt like she would've been BULLIED for being a charity case (poor girl) if she didn't lie about how she was rich and the granddaughter of Andrea's mom....

I was also glad; that Megan got the stick from up her behind because, for one, she was jealous of Rinidi and was stupid for sitting and starving herself to please Lizzie even Rinidi kind of did that too by not eating what she wanted.

No way could I do that..... but at least they all came around to be here still (Rindi) friend even after the lies she told had come out in the open. She also changes Cooper too; from being a womanizer and Megan finally got the guy and she sort of change Megan for the better, even Lizzie...

Well the name of the book is fitting for this story..

Well, the name of the book fits for this story...

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

***Not many spoilers but there may be some***

This book was pretty interesting, though; towards the end, I realize I read this book out of order. Even though it can be read probably In any order. At least I got the order correct in the next three books to this series lol.

Other than that... it’s crazy how she (Trina) didn’t make the team. Then Matt hurt his ankle (sprang/broke), and couldn’t play. I think it was meant for them to be together since he had a thing for him. & vise versa.... as I was reading this book though; I was like why is this girl complaining about herself being fat when 9 out of 10 she’s probably not fat....it was annoying...

But learning that she had an eating disorder. I am like ahh I see now because that can be a series probably no matter your size you can have one. I don’t think she was skinny, though, and she has an eating disorder. I remember learning that two sisters had an eating disorder. I said to myself it’s good that she has Matt and her friends there for her to push for and let him (Matt) know it’s not him; it’s her.

Not only that, she did a good job with her friend Ariane with shipping equipment overseas to Africa because they didn’t have enough... getting the community and schools among other places together to help was an excellent idea. I think a lot of kids need to learn to do that while in school. I know for a fact the schools where I live wouldn’t.

But I liked Trina's idea and was glad Matt was on board with her. Besides that, I was dying when those false allegations about them doing the Mcnasty and the kiss and her being pregnant. I was like those kids can spread rumors like wildfire, and Matt and Trina didn’t help themselves any. 🤣🤣 He even had the doctor on his case when he went to the ER.

Before I even get started on reading, wait for no lol! Before I even get started on this review, I am going to mention something about Dakota...


I’ve wanted a book with Dakota and Alana.. okay, I got it with Alana. Now I am waiting for the author to write this book about Dakota and some mystery guy. I do wonder if it’s one of Nash’s friends. Who knows... I am going to be checking none stop for that next book too lol.

But anyway, back to Alana story... I liked that Beckett wasn’t taking no for an answer when it came to his feelings for Alana. He proved her wrong when it came to her family, not liking him (well more so her Abuela)...

He proved a lot to her by coming to Europe and transferring to Kiss... that is what I liked. A lot of people need guys like that... but she was annoying in Europe though; because she was a downer just because he wasn’t there with her. I think her friends dealt with their boyfriends, not being there with them all the time...

Review: 27 Ways to Mend His Broken Heart

27 Ways to Mend His Broken Heart by Shari L. Tapscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

27 ways to win Kyles heart ❤️

https://ladiikeiii.wordpress.com/2020...

There may be a few spoilers but more likely fewer spoilers...


Okay. I want to start off saying that I enjoyed this book, but thought that Kaylee could've told Kyle how she felt about him way back in high school even before Ava popped up or after. Also, it was funny Ava thought that she had it made and though that Chad was a good guy more so better than Kyle. When reality, she left Kyle for a man who beats on women, how wack is that. When Ava came back, she thought she might have something again. But Kaylee was the one who Kyle wanted after her brother Heath spilled the beans about how she liked him forever and loved it him.

I was glad in the end; that Kyle stopped playing games with Kaylee's feelings and did something about it. But he did something right after he saw her with that guy "Issac" she meet from speed dating!

In the end, at least this time, the girl he was in love with finally did say "Yes" when he proposed. Unlike Ava did.... which led to embarrassment. But I doubt anyone of his friends, family, or co-workers cared for Ava that much as they did for Kaylee...
