Losing It by Cora Carmack

First off, a hot British boy! A hot British boy with an equally hot British accent! This much should be reason enough to read the book. 

Genre: NA Contemporary Romance

Pages: 204

Type: #1 in Losing It 

Rating: 5 out of 5 Garrick-worthy stars!

Synopsis: Sick of being the only virgin among her friends, Bliss Edwards decides the best way to deal with the problem is to lose it as quickly and simply as possible - a one-night stand. But her plan turns out to be anything but simple when she freaks out and leaves a gorgeous guy alone and naked in her bed with an excuse that no one with half-a-brain would ever believe. And as if that weren't embarrassing enough, when she arrives for her first class of her last college semester, she recognizes her new theatre professor. She'd left him naked in her bed about 8 hours earlier.

I finished this book under a day. It's a very quick read. It's also quite a page turner. I loved everything about the story. Especially, the ending. And of course, Garrick. I loved how the whole book was written to make it very relatable. All those insecurities and everything. 

  I really enjoyed the writing style. The plot was also something that's not seen very often in contemporary books. Or so I feel. Atleast the type of forbidden love I saw in the book. 

  All the characters were fun and easy going and frankly quite likeable. Except Dom. The story development was great too. It was an utterly toe-curling story. What with all those totally hot lines (where do authors get these lines from!) and what not! 

Looking for Alaska by John Green

I really don't even feel like writing a review on this book. But I'll do it anyways. Cuz that's just what I do. 

Genre: YA Contemporary

Pages: 262

Type: Standalone 

Rating: 3 stars 

Synopsis: Before. Miles "Pudge" Halter's whole existence has been one big nonevent, and his obsession with famous last words has only made him crave the "Great Perhaps" (François Rabelais, poet) even more. He heads off to the sometimes crazy, possibly unstable, and anything-but-boring world of Culver Creek Boarding School, and his life becomes the opposite of safe. Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed-up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young, who is an event unto herself. She pulls Pudge into her world, launches him into the Great Perhaps, and steals his heart.

After. Nothing is ever the same.

The book was divided into two parts: Before and After. I won't tell you what that means, because it will spoil. I didn't guess what happened but it was quite shocking. If you've read The Fault in Our Stars, you might guess. Or... Maybe not. 

 This book wasn't as satisfactory as I expected it to be. I was very unhappy about this. I don't have much to say about it, although I will leave a link to a video you have to check out. For sure. And listen to it carefully. Even if your blood might boil when you look at the title.

Updates...

Hiiiiiii! I'm back guys! I'm back from my vacation and ready to read! I'm ready to get out of my reading slump and blogging slump and get my life back on track! 

  Tomorrow I'll be going to the library and getting books! I'm currently reading Looking for Alaska by John Green. Next, I'll read Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. All that will come in August. I'll start afresh for September. 

  On 1st September, I will start school! I'm very excited to get back to school and all that jazz that comes with it. This term I wanna get good marks. But of course I also want to continue blogging. I do think it will be a bit lesser than before since those were my holidays and now my school will start again... So, I'm a bit doubtful. Nevertheless, I will try my best. 

  Let me know how your vacation went and what are you reading... :D
