Emily's Books Soon to Read

 
 
Emily's Choices
 
Here is some of the books that I am wanting to read soon.
 
 
 
1) Rain Girl by Gabi Kreslehner - I have chosen this book as I picked it as a choice at the book club however it did not get picked so I thought I would read it on my own accord.

Here is the blurb:
Veteran homicide detective Franza Oberwieser prefers her job in the winter. Summer is for growing, not for dying. So when the body of a beautiful young woman is found on the autobahn, dressed in a glittering party dress and bathed in June rain, Franza is determined to give her justice.
Revealing victims’ hidden lives is part of the job, but as Franza and her partner, Felix, peel back the layers shrouding the girl’s disturbing past, darker mysteries emerge. Everyone has something to hide—even Franza, who must face her own secrets to reveal the truth.
 


2) Still Alice by Lisa Genova - I have chosen to read this book as everyone is on about how good it is and the story plot fascinates me as I have got a personal interest into mental health and this book is all about that as it focuses on her memory.

Here is the blurb:

Alice Howland is proud of the life she worked so hard to build. At fifty, she's a cognitive psychology professor at Harvard and a renowned expert in linguistics, with a successful husband and three grown children. When she begins to grow forgetful and disoriented, she dismisses it for as long as she can until a tragic diagnosis changes her life - and her relationship with her family and the world around her - for ever.

Unable to care for herself, Alice struggles to find meaning and purpose as her concept of self gradually slips away. But Alice is a remarkable woman, and her family learn more about her and each other in their quest to hold on to the Alice they know. Her memory hanging by a frayed thread, she is living in the moment, living for each day. But she is still Alice.
 
 
 
3) Regarding Anna by Florence Osmund - I have chosen this book because it has got an hard hitting story plot which will fascinate me and intrigue me to want to read more. Due to the plot the emotion that will surround it will be vast and deep which I love, as I love books that show true emotion.
 
Here's the blurb:
Things that happen to you in the past can mold you into someone you’re not.

After recovering from the shock of her parents perishing in a tragic accident, Grace Lindroth discovers clues in their attic that cause her to believe the people she called Mom and Dad her whole life may not have been her real parents.

In her search for the truth, Grace encounters people whose actions cause her to be distrustful of just about everyone, making her mission that much more difficult but heightening her determination to uncover what she believes is essential for her to go on with her life.
Well that is all my choices for now - will keep you posted when I have read these books.


 

 

Sarah's books to be read soon

The books I want to read next are the ones below : respect by mandasue heller, little women by Louisa m.alcott and Kane and Abel by Jeffrey archer. 

First I'll explain about my first book , I've always loved crime and when I came across this one I knew I wanted to read it. I've since collected her other books but not read any yet as I've been reading other books. I'll paste a brief summary incase you decide you want to read it,

Chantelle has everything going against her. She's a good student who only wants to pass her exams and find a way out of the sink estate in Manchester where she grew up. But now her feckless mother has taken off for Spain with her latest boyfriend and she's single-handedly raising her tearaway nine-year-old brother Leon. She thinks her worst problem is the debt collectors at the door. But Leon has made some new friends: teenage gang members who have given him a mobile phone, a knife - and some drugs to hide in her flat.
A part-time job seems to be the answer to Chantelle's prayers. But the violence is about to come home to her - with a vengeance. And the only person who's offering any help seems to be just as bad as the people she's trying to escape from . . .

So as you can see its a good book!

Next is little women and normally I don't read books based in old times but I've always wanted to read it and from the picture you can see I've started it but then I had my book club books to read so stopped, below is a brief description. 

Classic novel of 19th-century family life during and after the Civil War, in a household with four sisters. Alcott based the March family largely on her own real-life family.

It doesn't give much away but that's the mystery of the book, you don't know what to expect. 

Lastly my third book is a book I started but then lost the book and only got it back as a Christmas present. I wouldn't normally read Jeffrey archer but a former book clubber recommended it so I thought I'll give it a try and it's one of those that looks good and from what I've read so far was good but till I pick it back up I'll not know! 

Born on the same day near the turn of the century on opposite sides of the world, both men are brought together by fate and the quest of a dream. These two men -- ambitious, powerful, ruthless -- are locked in a relentless struggle to build an empire, fuelled by their all-consuming hatred. Over 60 years and three generations, through war, marriage, fortune, and disaster, Kane and Abel battle for the success and triumph that only one man can have.

That is all three of my books and once I've read them I'll review them, hope you enjoyed reading this blog and maybe you decided to read one of these yourself!! 


Diana to be read soon books!


So here is a picture of my what I most wanna read soon, I have so many book I haven't read that I'm gonna try do a post like this every month to get me to read other book and not just the new one in my collection. 

First we have The longest ride by Nicholas Sparks personally I've never read any of Nicholas book , I've watched and loved most of the films from his book so I'm gonna give this a go and see  if he end up being one of my favourite author , I know he is Emily favourite so I'm sure he gonna end up being one of mine as we have similar taste in books . 

Secondly I have Girl online by Zoe Sugg , which appeals to me not only by the way it is written with text emails and blog post in it which always keeps me happy in a book but by the way it hilights panic attack and feeling not normal when suffering from anxiety which most people do suffer with these days . 
And thirdly I have Yours truly by Kirsty Greenwood , the plot of this book is amazing. It is about a girl that get hypnotised at her local pub and now can't tell white lie and we'll let be honest we all tell little white lie at time and the fort of not being able to would certainly get me into some hot mess lol! 
So these are my to be read books I hope you enjoyed this post I'll be reviewing these books as soon as they have been read. 
Thanks and keep reading.

Second Chance by Natasha Preston review.

Well what can I say about the amazing book apart from I was hooked the second I read it. 
I have read a couple of Natasha book before and always loved the way they are written and how easy you fall in love with each and every character. 
This book definitely has twist in it . 
I'm gonna paste the description below and then tell you what I rate it , why I love it so much and hopefully persuade you to go read it . 


Everyone deserves a second chance at happiness, and three years after Chloe Holland’s boyfriend dies in a bomb attack in London, she’s ready to move on. That is until the one person she can see herself moving forward with is the worst person she could ever imagine.


Logan Scott was the one Chloe turned to when Jace died, but she never imagined becoming close to him would leave her with the biggest dilemma she's ever faced. He makes her question everything. She makes him a better person. They push the limit of right and wrong.


Unfortunately, Chloe and Logan are perfect for each other.

I rated this book on good reads a five star and I truly believe it deserves that. 
The way the plot is written and the way Chloe and Logan love develops is beautiful. I can totally understand how hard it must of been to fall in love with your dead ex's brother . How his inner family handle there realtionship was really well , his outer family handle it not so well which is also very believe able . 
I truly recommend reading this book .
It only took me two day to read . 
 
Thanks and keep reading.

About Danielle.

Hey. 

My names Danielle & I'm also a member of the Forever Bound Book Club. So here's a little information about me for you guys. 

The first thing I learnt to do as a child, was to read. There are home videos of me from as little as 2 years old, holding & trying to read. At school, my reading advanced quickly & by the age of 13 I was hooked on books. 

I started to buy books, mainly crime & thrillers and now at the age of 22, I will read pretty much anything. From crime, to romance, from dystopian to fantasy. I will try anything once! 

I love reading and try and read as much as possible. I take my Kindle with me everywhere (even though I do prefer books!) & there's nothing more relaxing than having a bath, with a cup of tea and a good read. 

The book club is a great way for friends to come and gather to talk about something we all have in common, and we all love. It's a lovely, happy atmosphere and there's always plenty of giggles. It's a really fun few hours & it's great to know I'm not boring people with my obsession for reading. 

So, a little more about me quickly, as I said previously I'm 22, I currently live in Hinckley. I work for a company called The Works (whom sell books, not so good for my wages!) I have an amazing partner (who had never read a book before, but that has now changed & he's on his third book, lol!) I live with my mum, dad & sister who are also readers. I think that's all the info you need to know about me for now! 

Take care & speak soon book lovers.

About Emily

 
 
 
Me Me Me!
 


Hey I'm Emily. I would class myself as a book worm.
I love to read, it's been one of my passions since I was a child.

Reading for me is like an escape, you can enter a world that is fantasy and live it how you want to live it and you can bring characters to life.
 
One of my favourite authors is Nicholas Sparks. He has written so many books, out of the ones I have read so far they are so easy to get into, also not to mention most of them have been made into films, which is great.

So that's a little bit about me. I shall post reviews and updates in the near future.
Keep reading and keep in touch.

Hey, my name Diana and my love for books been getting bigger and bigger each year . The more book I read the more I fall in love with the book world . The way you can feel emotion toward a character overwhelms me . I truly love the feeling of a book and especially a series of book of course until it end and then that quite disappointing . 
In my spare time I split it between reading watching series and spending time with family and friends . 
I only started loving book from the age of about 18 , with always struggling to read and write at school it always put me off but now I'm older I just take my time and as long as the book has a good storyline I'm okay .
Anyway I'll leave it at that . I'm gonna start reviewing books I've read and hauling ones I've brought so you will be seeing or should I say reading a lot more from me .
