Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell...i do think this is such a YOUNG ADORABLE romantic story set in the 80's...the characters were adorable together in their most awkward moments. It helps that the author have a way of bringing out those sweet adorkable words to express what the MCs were feeling..that very first feeling of falling in love and self discovery but it also tells of the most common harsh realities that many young teenagers today are experiencing in their own homes and in school. Even though this book didn't made any huge emotional impact on me but i did have my giggling moments along with Eleanor and Park..yes it was that sort of cheesy and sweet! The characters were also relatable and this will def. appeal the YA audience and even some mature ones like me.

Crash Into You (Pushing the Limits #3) by Katie McGarry (YA contemprary with mature content)
This is Isaiah's story and he was i was looking forward to in this series. I was having mixed feelings over this book. I didn't exactly like the girl he was paired up with, Rachel's character was too whiny and over privilege for me to really care about. She wanted to be independent but she can't help but still came off as a damsel in distress all the time. I get that she suffers from panic attacks but her over protective family is driving me crazy. If it were not for Isaiah i would have considered this one a bust. I did managed to warm up to Rachel in the end.
A love that was forged in the fast lane for they both love fast cars..it was how they met in an illegal drag race and end up both in real trouble.

A Touch of Crimson (Renegade Angels #1) by Sylvia Day...i happen to really like the author's writing style in her Crossfire series. So i decided to give her PNR series a chance. About Fallen angels, nephilims, lycans and vampires. Yes the usual forbidden love among these beings following the punishments cursed upon them by the Heavenly Creator. Still i enjoyed this one and the conspiracies going on to create chaos and conflicts. A possesive scorching hot celestial being who is forever falling for a badass mortal heroine turned daughter of the night but can do yoga under a blazing sun (for mysterious reasons that is yet to be pondered upon in the next installment) ..what is there not to like? it was a good night for me to go tripping back to this genre.

a dystopian love story. i am a love junkie so of course, i kinda bet for this book. and thinking about it happening in real life, i refuse to live in this kind of world. Pity for them they were stripped off of the most powerful feelings in life.. to love and be loved. they are missing a lot in their lives.

how would you rate this in the scale of 1-5? the ending was such a cliffy. I liked pandemonium but was greatly disappointed with requiem, a very bad ending for this series. the author has great writing style that appealed to me. i guess when she wrote the final book she got a case of Amor Deliria Nervosa O_o
