review: slated

Paperback448 pages
Hey guys, it's frappu here! First of all, I got something to tell you. I'm sorry I haven't been posting lately but I had finals and didn't had enough time to post or read. But, I've finished this new book and I thought that maybe you guys would like to read what I thought about it!

"Kyla’s memory has been erased,
her personality wiped blank,
her memories lost for ever.

She’s been Slated.

The government claims she was a terrorist and that they are giving her a second chance - as long as she plays by their rules. But echoes of the past whisper in Kyla’s mind. Someone is lying to her, and nothing is as it seems. Who can she trust in her search for the truth?

Opinion: I usually don't go for this kind of books but my friend told me to. It's okay, and I'll probably read the next ones. The story is addictive but I thought that it was too perfect. She is the perfect one, she is different, so she wins. No! It would be funnier if she was normal and understood everything alone, if you know what I mean. The love story was also too perfect, too cliche. But, I enjoyed it I guess. I'm gonna give it, 3 out of 5 stars.

Hope you liked it, see you next time.
xx, frappu

Would you rather book tag

Hi guys, it's frappu here. Today I'm bringing you other tag but this time about books. Hope you like it.

1. Rather read only a series or stand-alone books?
Maybe stand-alone books. Even though I love series, I tend to get tired of them easily. I don't know why!! 

 2. Rather read a book whose main character is male or female?
Both???? I love books that have 2 points of view! But If I had to choose, I would probably go for the female one.

 3. Rather shop only at Barnes & Noble (or other actual bookstore) or Amazon?
Amazon. 4. Rather all books become movies or tv shows?
Tv shows. 5. Rather read 5 pages per day or read 5 books per week?
5 books per week.

 6. Rather be a professional book reviewer or an author?
Both? I can't decide! 7.  Rather only read the same 20 books over and over or get to read a new book every 6 months?
Get to read a new book every 6 months, because if i read the same 20 books over and over, I would start hating them. 8. Rather be a librarian or own a book store?
Own a book store. 9. Rather only read your favorite genre or your favorite author?
Favorite genre. 10. Rather only read physical books or eBooks?

Physical!!! I don't like eBooks!

Hope you liked my post,
See you on the next one

review eleanor and park

Hardcover328 pages
Hi guys, it's frappu here. I'm sorry, but today I have other review for you! But I've been reading a lot and I didn't wanted to forget what I thought about the book, so here we go.

"Two misfits.
One extraordinary love.

Eleanor
... Red hair, wrong clothes. Standing behind him until he turns his head. Lying beside him until he wakes up. Making everyone else seem drabber and flatter and never good enough...Eleanor.

Park... He knows she'll love a song before he plays it for her. He laughs at her jokes before she ever gets to the punch line. There's a place on his chest, just below his throat, that makes her want to keep promises...Park.

Set over the course of one school year, this is the story of two star-crossed sixteen-year-olds—smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try."


Opinion: Its so rare for me to get addicted to a book! I swear! And this book was so cozy, I think that it's the perfect word to describe it. "Cozy". I felt like I was being hugged whenever I was reading it! So, the story it's kind of strange but it made me remember a relationship that I (almost)  had with a ginger guy and we talked about music just like them. I was reliving thoses times. The end broke my heart. I'll give 4,5 out of 5 to the book. 

So, hope you liked my second review.
See you next time,
xx,
frappu

review: big little lies


Hi guys, it's frappu here. Today I'm gonna talk about the book "big little lies" by Liane Moriarty. Hope you like it.

"Big Little Lies follows three women, each at a crossroads:

Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She’s funny and biting, passionate, she remembers everything and forgives no one. Her ex-husband and his yogi new wife have moved into her beloved beachside community, and their daughter is in the same kindergarten class as Madeline’s youngest (how is this possible?). And to top it all off, Madeline’s teenage daughter seems to be choosing Madeline’s ex-husband over her. (How. Is. This. Possible?).

Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare. While she may seem a bit flustered at times, who wouldn’t be, with those rambunctious twin boys? Now that the boys are starting school, Celeste and her husband look set to become the king and queen of the school parent body. But royalty often comes at a price, and Celeste is grappling with how much more she is willing to pay.

New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for the nanny. Jane is sad beyond her years and harbors secret doubts about her son. But why? While Madeline and Celeste soon take Jane under their wing, none of them realizes how the arrival of Jane and her inscrutable little boy will affect them all.

Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.
 (less)"



Opinion: When I first started reading it, it was kind of boring. But then, I got attached to every single one of the characters and I couldn't stop reading the book. I never thought that the end would be like it was! I mean, I thought about something dramatic in a bad way and it turned out dramatic in a good way if you understand what I mean... If you don't, I'll explain it to you! I thought that the person who was about to die was one of the main characters that I loved but I end up never happening so I was okay. I will give it 4 starts out of 5 because of the begging!

 So, it's all for today! 
See you next time,
xx, frappu
