So a new way of reviewing borrowed from other bloggers. The synopsis will all be from B&N and I will then put on my review of the book at the end.
Synopsis:
I WAS THE GHOST OF THE SCHOOL CORRIDORS.
SKYE WAS THE DEVIL.
AND I WAS DOOMED FROM THE DAY SHE SPOKE TO ME
Skye Colby? She's the multi-pierced, multi-tattooed girl hanging around the cybercafés; always out at odd hours in marginal places. The jocks call her "slut puppy," the bland blondes in the plaid miniskirts wrinkle their noses at her, the teachers think she's brilliant, and the counselors call her unstable.
She's all of those things. So why has she singled out Matt Lathrop, an almost invisible nobody, for special attention? Clearly her agenda is dangerous, and clearly Matt should walk away. But how? Skye means mystery; she trails drama in her Goth wake. Skye signals an end to his dreary existence — but at what price?

My opinion:

I thought the book was overall pretty good. It lacked some deepness but then again it was only 176 pages. Maybe it was just me but at first I was like who is the narrator the name on every chapter made me think it was going to be told in more the one viewpoint but I finally got it. I’ve read one of this author’s previous books and she is a really good storyteller. Gives a different meaning to Goth. Overall 3/5

ACT/SAT tip of the day: Get to the test site early, eat breakfast and don't forget your snack. Only for SAT don't forget your TI 89(like i ever leave home without it just kidding i don't think im that much of a dork and um for those who are like what are you talking about the TI 89 is like only the best calculator ever duh!)hehe i have the TI 89 titanium it makes me feel smarter.

Horrible

Sorry I am probably the worst blogger ever because I have all these plans to post things and I never do but do not fear this week will be different. So I have some book reviews to post up between today and tomorrow I think three in total. Some updates if you haven’t seen my contest ends on the 25 of this month so spread the word (please with a cherry on top!). So I don’t know if I have any followers who are seniors(yes, no, maybe so) the point is I am studying for the ACT and SAT you guys probably already took them but if not I will share some of the tips I get from my studying at the end of every post if anyone is interested. So that’s it for now.

Oh I read this On PI pretty cool. http://www.simonandschuster.com/admin_assets/1423_Banned_Book_Poem.pdf

Oh and I found this book and it was really cheap so I couldn't pass it up even if it is a sequel but here's a summary from B&N(if i get some more entries i will also throw a couple of copies of this into the contest):Meri is back with a vengeance!
When we last left our tale of deceit, blackmail, and really great shoes, our heroine Cindy Bixby had gotten rid of Meri Sugarman, the diabolical sorority president of Alpha Beta Delta.
Now Cindy, along with her sorority sisters and friends at Rumson U., including her über-hottie boyfriend, Keith (yum!), is working hard to rebuild the sorority . . . but then along comes Meri.
She's back. Sure, she's not allowed anywhere near Rumson U., but do you really think that will stop her? (Get real!) Meri's still got a few tricks up those Dolce & Gabbana sleeves, and she's determined to destroy Alpha Beta Delta once and for all -- and exact her cruelest revenge on Cindy!
But Cindy is nobody's fool anymore. She's ready to do whatever it takes to beat Meri!

Boy toy contest!

So i am going to be giving away a signed copy yes you read right SIGNED copy of Barry Lyga's boy toy.Synopsis from authors website:
Five years ago Josh’s life changed. Drastically. And everyone in his school, his town—seems like the world—thinks they understand.
But they don’t—they can’t.
And now, about to graduate from high school, Josh is still trying to sort through the pieces. First there’s Rachel, the girl he thought he’d lost years ago. She’s back, and she’s determined to be part of his life, whether he wants her there or not.
Then there are college decisions to make, and the toughest baseball game of his life coming up, and a coach who won't stop pushing Josh all the way to the brink.
And then there’s Eve. Her return brings with it all the memories of Josh’s past. It’s time for Josh to face the truth about what happened.

If only he knew what the truth was . . .

Blood promise

okay so this a review for blood promise written by richelle mead.

I finished this book last week but i havent had a lot of time to make posts lately. So in the fourth book of the vampire academy series Rose goes off in search of the love of her life Dimitri but she must kill him. This book didn't disappoint it takes a lot of unexpected turns and twists. For fans of the series definitely check it out. First time readers buy the first book and you will see why this series is so good. I mean in a genre that's so filled with vampire stories this is completely different.5/5
