Book Review: Confessions of a Triple Shot Betty by Jody Gehrman

Confessions of a Triple Shot Betty by Jody Gehrman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It's supposed to be the best summer ever in Geena's book, but sadly it wasn't because....

1. Hero, Geena's cousin, and Amber, Geena's friend and co-worker of the Triple Shot Betty, weren't getting along UNTIL Hero met Claudio, Amber and Hero are buddies, and Amber and Hero was in a horrible deal that lowered their reputation until all three of them got back on the dude and all three are now BFFS.

2. She's supposed to hate Ben but after her friends tricked her into liking him, they kissed (twice) and she thought Ben was in cahoots with John, but it didn't look that way.

3. Hero being lovestruck by Claudio.

4. John being a TOTAL DUCHE BECAUSE HE'S A DUCHEY-DUCHE TYPE GUY THAT NEEDS TO GET OFF AND GO SOMEWHERE FROM THIS PLANET.

5. Hero breaking out of her pink-girlyness and changing up her look.

So that's all that happened in the novel, summed up by me. It was really really good and I honestly enjoyed myself.

Book Hypothesis: Confessions of a Triple Shot Betty by Jody Gehrman

This is something new on my blog-after two years of previewing and book reviewing (August 12 of this year is my three year anniversary on this blog) I figured I do something new on here (as I tried to do with 'Abuse My Netflix, which I don't have anymore) which is take photos of the books I'm about to read and preview them. This month, this book is called Confessions of a Triple Shot Betty. 

From the cover of the book (that's what drew me to the book) I figured this book was about a group of people who love coffee. Or about a college group of girls who works at the coffee house called Triple Shot Betty and while working there falls in love with three boys and all three of them fall in love. 

From the back, it has names of the characters-Amber, John, Hero, Claudio, Geena, and Ben. So I'm guessing that all of them are falling in love with each other, except Geena and Ben, who obviously hate each other. Hero and Claudio are dating, Amber told John that she loves him, but John wants Hero, but Hero's in love with Claudio....

Oy vey this sounds like a really good book.

Book Review: Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver

Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Since I skipped the first book, Delirium (thanks, public library) I didn't know what to expect when I picked up Pandemonium. Pandemonium is my first YA Dystopian novel, and it interested me a lot.

Thoughout the story, it has flashbacks when Lena was in the Wilds with Raven and her group while thinking about Alex while in the present, Lena goes to a meeting with the DFA, and gets captured with a boy named Julian Fineman, a rich kid who hasn't been though the operation to get rid of the deliria, aka love. After being captured by the Savengers and kept in one room for days, they finally escape to a homestead, where rat-man and Coin took care of them before they went to another homestead, this time the one Lena remembers, and they stay there for one night until they were captured by the SWAT team and Lena was reunited with Tack and Raven, while Julian went back to his father.

Tack and Raven told Lena that everything she went through was planned by Tack and Raven. Lena got mad and as soon as they left and went to a homestead, Lena snuck out to the Fineman residence, where she found a book in the forbidden library and found information about her mother. Running out the house after almost getting caught by Thomas Fineman, she goes to the hospital (she overheard Thomas on the phone-she was there finding Julian), where she slipped in a glass-window room and watched as they brought Julian in, ready for his execution.

But that didn't happen, did it?

Thanks to Raven, she burst in and shot Thomas Fineman, I forgot who she beat up, and Lena, Julian, and Raven ran outside, where Julian and Lena made promises to be together forever.

"Don't believe her." a voice says.

Lena turns around....and dun dun dun, it's Alex....dead boy Alex. SUPPOSED to be dead Alex.

In the immortal words of Stewie Griffin: What the deuce?

Book Preview: Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver

"So what was your name before?" I say, and she freezes, her back to me. "Before you came to the Wilds, I mean."

For a moment she stands there. Then she turns around. "You might as well get used to it now," she says with quiet intensity. "Everything you were, the life you had, the people you knew....dust." She shakes her head and says, a little more firmly, "There is no before. There is only now, and what comes next."

Ser Jaime Lannister: I Don't Hate Him Anymore

Maybe it's because next week Game of Thrones season 4 is about to come on, or that Jaime Lannister had grown on me. Once upon a time, I would hate his guts, hate everything about him, but as the show (and story) progressed, I honestly...felt sorry for him..and I fell for him.

I was supposed to HATE him, but then he grew on me SO BADLY. I don't know if is the beard or the eyes or his charming attitude or WHAT, but DAMMIT JAIME, WHY DID YOU TURN HAWT TO ME NOW??? Why, why why why???

Oh don't give me that look, you beautiful, dirty man you...I'm supposed to hate you, but instead I love you now....damn damn damn.....

Book Review: Classic: An It Girl Novel by Cecily von Ziegesar

Classic by Cecily von Ziegesar
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It's Valentine's day at Waverly, and everyone is paired up for that week, thanks to the Perfect Match system. Everyone's happy....or are they? Jenny Humphries thought she can spend the whole week with her perfect boyfriend, Isaac Dresdsen, the dean's son. But things don't go well at the Valentine's Dance where Isaac's girlfriend, Molly, showed up and Jenny realized that Isaac was nothing more than a liar and she ran out of the Ball, but before she ran back to Dumbarton, she looked at her friend Brett Messerschmidt, who saw the text message between Isaac and Molly when she went over the dean's house to spend time with her Perfect Match, which was Isaac and not Jenny. Jenny was paired up with Julian McCafferty, who was nice to her during the week.

Callie was torn between two guys-Brandon Buchanan and Easy Walsh, who came back from military school. She met up with Easy before school started (that was because he was standing outside waiting on her) and during the week, all she cared about was both boys, until she realized that all she cared about was what Easy was doing, and not Brandon. Oh and Callie was paired with Alan St. Girard, a stoner and Brandon was paired with a girl named Cora, who basically did the Perfect Match thing and liked Brandon and at the end (*sounds like Sheldon Cooper* spoiler alert!) get together. At the Valentine's Ball, both Easy and Brandon collected hearts and the people was about to announce the name of the person who got the most hearts, Brandon said 'forget it' because before they started searching for these hearts to Callie, she sent them a break-up form e-mail, thanks to stoner Alan, and at the end, Easy and Callie got together.

Oh Miss Tinsley Carmichael. Tinsley, Tinsley, Tinsley. What can I say about you? Your Perfect Match was Heath Ferro and you got your revenge with your best friend Brett on Isla (no, not Elsa from Disney's Frozen), whom you hate so much after the party she threw at the dean's house, but got you in trouble and had to do community service. But when you tried to find out what did Isla did in her old school, you went diggin' until you found Isla's geeky ex-boyfriend Xander, got some EMBRASSING photos of her, and at the Ball showed them to the school. You, my friend, were the only one laughing while everyone else glared at you. In the bathroom in which you slinked to, you and Isla called it truce.

Brett Messerschmidt, your partner in crime, was deeply jealous of Isla to go through with this Operation: Embrass Isla that you ignored your boyfriend Sebastian Valenti because he was litterly all over Isla and you were jealous. You were also matched up with Jenny's boyfriend Isaac and when you saw those text messages, you wanted to tell Jenny but you didn't until the end when Jenny met Molly and left. But you got back in Sebastian's good graces at the end.

All in all this was a good book and I enjoyed it a whole lot.
