Dear Logan,
Someday I'm going to write a book: How Not to Die in Alaska - A Girl's Guide to Fashionable Survival.

I bet you don't know that a hair pin can make an excellent fishing hook. You may think you can use just any kind of mud for mud masks, but trust me, you CAN'T! In a pinch, nothing starts a fire like nail polish remover. Alaska is tough. You might know this, if you ever replied to my letters.
After Maddie's Secret Service dad takes a bullet for the president, he takes Maddie somewhere he thinks they'll be safe - far away from the White House and the president's son, Logan.
But when Logan comes to Alaska, so does the danger.

I have read many of Ally Carters books and this one is just as good as the rest, she has a way of telling a story, and it keeps you entertained and hooked for the entire course of the book.

This is a story very different but all together the same for what Carter normally writes, it has a strong female lead and a wonderful male counterpart, this wasn't an elaborate saga with a hundred different characters it felt very intimate and small, and when it's a stand alone book that is a good thing so that way you can get to know the characters rather than just read them instead you rout for them. 

The way this book is written it makes me want to go to Alaska, and do what Maddie and Logan do, just without the drama. 

I don't want to spoil this book, so the only comments I will give this book, is that it was fast paced, and I couldn't put the book down, my only issue and the reason why its not 5 stars is the fact that I personally felt like it ended too quickly, and it was a bit predictable, but I honestly don't expect much else from YA books, I think I have read so many over the years that it does take a lot for one not to be predictable. 

But overall I really enjoyed this book, it was fast paced, and a real page turner, if you like this genre then I highly recommend it.

Until Next Time 
Happy Reading

Romance Recomendations

Hello, so I haven't been on here for a good long while, but it is currently valentines day as I write this and I looked at my bookshelf and for the first time in a while I felt the urge to blog, I will be posting a post about why I've been M.I.A soon, but for now enjoy this post and I will be sticking to a schedule hopefully that pushes me to read at least one book a week. 

📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚

So here are my top 5 favourite Romance Books/Authors ….

Abbi Glines 

If you've followed me for a while this won't be a surprise, Glines is on my must read list, even when I'm in a reading slump I still manage to read those books. 
Her characters never fail to entertain and it's hard not to fall in love with every single one of them. 



Where Rainbows End/Love Rosie - Cecelia Ahern

Where Rainbows End is the copy I have but it's now called Love Rosie, and I read it quite a few years ago, but to this day it still sticks in my mind as one of the best love stories I have ever read.

Kat French

I found Kat's books by accident in my supermarket, but now she is one of my favourite romance Authors, her books are so light and funny, they never fail to put me in a good mood.

Bella Andre

I love a good saga, any series that follows a family or different characters in the same circle are always some of my favourites to read and we are literally on the third section of this family and I can't wait for more.

Morgan Matson 



This is a YA Author but like Kat French, she manages to make the story light and funny, with a hint of seriousness as well, I love every book by this author but if I had to choose my favourite would have to be The Unexpected Everything.
