Winging It (Dragon Diaries #2) by Deborah Cooke Review


5 STARS

I am really in love with this series it is just beautiful. It is nice to see even from the beginning of this novel how much Zoe has developed from the first book and is much bolder and more attuned with her Wyvern powers.

In this novel Zoe and her fellow Pyr (Liam, Nick and Garret) must deal with the Mages once again as they did in the first novel. On top of this Zoe must has to deal with her parents possibly splitting up, her best friend Megan who she is constantly headbutting with lately and try and balance homework and school on top of that. Not to mention Jared keeps giving Zoe hot and cold signals. So Zoe isn't very happy even with her sixteenth birthday coming up.

Even though this novel didn't have as much action as it's predecessor it worked heavily on character development and Zoe working on developing her Wyvern abilities.

Definitely can't wait for Blazing the Trail.

On The Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta


Note: This was originally reviewed in March and appeared on my goodreads.

5 Stars
This has to be my favourite Melina Marchetta book.
I didn't think I would like it since I am over the cliche orphan at boarding school, but it was written perfectly in a way that I can't even force myself to hate it.
I will admit that the book was a bit confusing at first and I actually went back and read the previous chapters because I thought I had missed something.
I loved these characters. They were obviously not perfect and were very flawed, yet I still loved them. Taylor was definitely a fave of mine.
This book managed to make me feel an array of emotions as well as make me laugh and cry.
It just felt so real and the romance was just beautful

Recommend this to everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!
