Solomon Creed - LoveReading Review



Solomon Creed By Simon Toyne

Love reading book review

By Emily Griffiths

I am a reader who has to be hooked on the first page.

I had to manage to get past the first page of Solomon Creed and was starting to get into the book. However due to time constraints and other commitments I could not finish the book by the review dead line.

With what I have read so far I have found that the language used was very detailed and it was very well written.

The only thing I would criticise about the book was how each chapters started, as due to the number of characters involved in the plot it was a bit confusing of which chapter was referring to what character, If on the chapters page there was clarification of a name of a character I would have understood it a bit better.

However despite that point and not having the time to read it all before the due date I shall continue to read this book in my own time and to see if my perceptions change further down the line.

Back into the swing of things!



So Hello

Finally we have had a book club meeting at last. It has felt like a life time since having the last meeting. I have missed the fellow book clubbers and to make things more exciting we have got ourself a few new members.

And most important thing of all is that a book of my choice has actually been picked out to read! I've been waiting since the start of the book club for one of my choices to be picked. So I am so happy with this.

Let me give you a summary of what this book is about!


Limpet, Steffan and Jared. Three best friends crammed into a clapped-out rust bucket of a car on a whirlwind road trip to forget their troubles and see out the end of the summer. But no matter how far they drive, they can’t escape the hidden secrets and slow-burning romance that could upset the balance of their friendship – perhaps forever
Doesn't this sound exciting!

Grey -E.L.James review

Grey is the fourth book from El James and is about Christian and Anastasia relationship (fifty shades of grey) but from Christians point of view. It is good to read it from his point of view as you can see and understand partly why he was the way he was. Also you see that he loves her from the first time he sees her even though he doesn't realise this till the very end of the book. I loved reading this book and I sympathised with Christian and was eager to get to the end to see how it ended. I felt that by reading this I got to know the character of Christian a little but more. El James left it as a cliffhanger so I hope there is another.

This book is an amazing read and I give it 5***** I loved it and can't wait to see if there is another one. Sorry it's a short review but don't want to spoil it for those that haven't read the book yet.

The Secret Of Ella & Micha Review.

Hey everyone.

First of all, I would just like to apologise that it has taken me so long to do this review. I actually finished this book, maybe a week and a half ago, but I've been super busy. What with doing overtime at work, and then with my family being away in Spain (lucky buggers) I've had to house sit too.

In all of the chaos this week has bought me, I have finally found a perfect little moment, for me to chill out and do this review for you :)

So, if you read my review for 'The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden' then you will know that I fell in love with the author Jessica Sorensen. Straight after I had finished book one in the Callie and Kayden series, I picked up the first book in the Ella & Micha series.

This book was lovely. I already kinda thought I would like it, but I loved it, and it just made my love for Jessica Sorensen even stronger. I felt as though I could relate to these characters maybe a bit more than those in the Callie & Kayden series.

This story is about two best friends, Ella & Micha, who sadly have to part ways after a devastating event that occurs in their lives. However, they don't stay parted for long, as Ella soon has to come back to her hometown and has to face seeing him again. The book is about their constant battle, between being best friends, and being a little bit more than that. I loved the fact that they were both bad-asses, I loved the fact that we could tell they soo wanted each other, I loved the fact that in some pages, the sexual tension between them is almost unbearable. Now, please note that this is not an erotica novel, but it does have some saucy scenes in it. No-where near as bad as FSOG etc, but just enough to tell you, that this thing is serious!!

I really enjoyed this book, there isn't one thing I could fault about it & as soon as pay day rolls around, I shall be buying the rest of the series. In fact, I'm probably more excited about carrying on this series, than the Callie & Kayden series. Don't get me wrong, I loved both books immensely, but something about Ella & Micha drew me in.

I gave this book 4 stars on GoodReads.

Until next time,
Happy Reading!

"Grey"


Hey it's Emily here. Just want to say I am rather excited about the release of this book.

I think this book will be intriguing especially as it focuses on Christian's perspective.

My weight loss journey

Hi I'm Sarah and I thought I'd share with you my weight loss journey. As I said in a previous blog recently I'm trying to lose weight and it's hard I've only been at it two weeks so while I'm so early in to it why not share with you people and let you know how I'm doing. I guess I should start with why I'm doing this. 
I've always been a big girl, I love my food too much especially chocolate crisps and all things junk. I had a child n said I would lose weight after. My son is now 3 so as you can see from the date I'm writing this, that's not really happened. 
I was getting dressed one day and caught a glimpse of my self naked and I really didn't like what I saw so decided to do something about it . I joined a slimming world group and started to see what I ate wasn't good for me. I hate going into a shop and seeing all the amazing things I can't wear because they don't do my size, so I have a target and when I get there then I'm going to reward myself with new clothes. I'm currently a size 20/22 and am aiming for a size 14. I know I can do it I just have to have the willpower to do it. 
So since starting this group I have lost 4 pound now I know it's not much but a loss is still a loss. So every time I do something great or lose a bit I'm going to reward my self and keep motivated to do this.  If you have any ideas on how to keep motivated please share and I will keep you all updated ! Thanks for reading this. Sarah x 

Forever bound beauty!


Hey beautiful people,
As you may all know we originally started this blog purely for our love of book which we shall continue but as our love for beauty and fashion is just as equal we have decided we would share all our beauty trick and fashions finds along the way too. 
We are four girl of different ages who all have different taste in beauty and fashion as well as book.
Kind of like the spice girls, you see if we was the same it would be boring.

I'm Diana I would say my style is girly but with comfort , I like to look sassy and smart even tho I don't always , as I'm writing this I'm in bambi pj lol so SASSY . Navy is my go to colour when I'm out on the town with being more curvy i feel it suit me more and is a little different to the LBD . A blazer or leather jacket are my fAvorite fashion items. My  make up I keep very simple but I change my lipstick to whatever my mood is the darker it is the more attitude I have .

I'm Danielle & I like girly outfits, with a sometimes subtle hint of grunge mixed in there. My favourite combo at the minute is my pale blue ripped skinny jeans, with a grey top, thats long in length, but is also backless, paired with my heeled black boots that feature cut outs and gold buckles. Like Diana, I am also curvy, usually wearing a size 16 - 18,  but that wont stop me from wearing what I like! I was a self-taught / training make up artist. Day to day, at work etc, I wear very minimal make-up, but occasionally when I go for a meal, I'll go full hog, with the contoured face and falsies & that's pretty much my style!

Hey I am Emily, I would say I have a hipster and edgy style, as I do like my beanie hats and pumps but I also like girly stuff as well. My favourite fashion item at the moment would be playsuits, I just love them, they are good to wear in the summer weather but also they are great for night out outfits. In regards to make up I like to keep it simple but appropriate for all occasions, I really do love lipsticks and decent mascara. Most of my cosmetics are from Rimmel, I did try MAC foundation and that made me break out in so many spots,so I would say its not always about the cost it's about finding the make up that is suitable for your skin and more on the lines of quality. My fashion icons that I look up to at the moment are Kendal and Kyle Jenner.

Hi I'm Sarah, I don't really have a style or a look, you see I'm a big girl and I guess i just put on what ever is comfortable and don't bother with makeup. I'm a big girl and don't think anything would suit me or make me look better. So I am in the middle of losing weight and I know that once I get to a size I am happy with I know what I want my style to be, I want to wear vintage as I look at some of their clothes and fall in love, some of the vintage dresses out there are gorgeous and when I'm the right size I know I can pull it off and look good. As for make up if I do wear any I like Browns and nice colours that don't really stand out. 
So that's what I think I'd like my style to be.  

Anyway that's a little about us so until next time stay BEAUTIFUL x
