The Last Dance by xoStardust

OKAY THIS IS MY FAVORITE NON-PUBLISHED BOOK OF ALL TIMES!

The Last Dance by xoStardust is just completely mind blowing with the words and the plot. This was the first book I read when I joined Wattpad. When the book ended I cried tears of happiness because of the ending and that it ended!

Prince John's biggest fear? Becoming King, and everything to do with it, from the sheltered life, to someday having to get married. Celia, a lady knight, minus the 'Lady' if she can help it, is not looking forward to coming of age and attending the High Ball which she thinks is nothing more than a market for single girls. The two have hated each other since childhood, but when the stress gets to John and he does something drastic, Celia's the only one who can help.

The absolute plot is cliche but it is very well written which I applaud to. This book has been viewed or read over 16 million times. Now it is shocking that it has not been published yet. When Celia fights with Prince John you can just sense the tension (sexual tension that is) between them!



Rate: 10/5

Always. Always. Always will be remembered and I look back to this book when I am deeply sadden or just bored!

The Bad Boy's Girl by JessGirl93

Okay so today's blog post is a bit different because the book is not a published one. Yes I know it sounds weird but I had discovered a website that people post stories on. A favorite of  mine is The Bad Boy's Girl by JessGirl93. Now this isn't the typical cliche where the girl is in love with the boy and they live happily together with no obstacles.

“Some people bring out the worst in you, others bring out the best, and then there are those remarkably rare, addictive ones who just bring out the most. Of everything. They make you feel so alive that you’d follow them straight into hell, just to keep getting your fix.”
—         Karen Marie Moning, Shadowfever

Tessa O’Connell is a girl as ordinary as they come-or so she thinks. Her aim for senior year is to keep her head down yet somehow manage to convince her childhood love Jay Stone to love her back. What she isn’t prepared for is for Jay’s brother, Cole to return to town and change the life she’s always been seemingly content to live. Tall, gorgeous as all hell and a bad boy with ocean blue eyes and the perfect edge of adorability, he was her greatest tormentor, her number one enemy.But the guy that’s come back is like no one Tessa’s ever come across. He challenges her, he tests her limits, he forces her to bring out the girl she’s long ago buried under a veil of mediocrity and most of all he compels her to consider that perhaps the boy that infuriates her to the point of no return might just her guardian angel.

Warning: The story comes with a bad boy notorious for making you swoon, inducing hysterical laughter and making you question whether you could purchase a clone on ebay.



As mentioned above in the summary, the book has many funny points in it and the writing is very clear. Tessie is such a sweet character that has been through so much. I honestly hope that this book will catch your attention as it did to mine. I fell in love with the pranks and the bickering between Tessa and Cole.

Rate: 5/5

Definitely one of the best books ever and should be published one day for everyone to read and see.

Juliet Immortal by Stacey Jay

As a teenage girl, I was never really interested in the whole Romeo and Juliet play by William Shakespeare but reading this book sparked my interest. This book is so well written and plot is planned out wonderfully. This comes onto my list of my top #5 favorite books of alltime. 

Juliet Capulet didn't take her own life. She was murdered by the person she trusted most, her new husband, Romeo Montague, a sacrifice made to ensure his own immortality. But what Romeo didn't anticipate was that Juliet would be granted eternity, as well, and would become an agent for the Ambassadors of Light. For 700 years, she's fought Romeo for the souls of true lovers, struggling to preserve romantic love and the lives of the innocent. Until the day she meets someone she's forbidden to love, and Romeo, oh Romeo, will do everything in his power to destroy that love.

There is a sequel came out named Romeo Redeemed. I will soon review it after I have finished the book. I am actually reading more than five books surprisingly. So this book had caught my attention when I was just wandering in Barnes and Noble. The beginning of the book had captured my attention immediately. It began with an accident and Juliet's voice was just so clear. 

Rate: 5
Definitely on my top books to read during anytime of the year. I am going to read this during the summer on my flight. 

Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

Now I am pretty sure almost every teenager has read this book or watched the movie. If you haven't, well then READ IT! The book was finely written by Rick Riordan. If you have been living under a rock for the past 7 years then here is a summary of The Lightning Thief:

Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school... again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus' master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect.

Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus' stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.



The summary itself wants to make any fiction reader want to read it within hours. Yet there are some things that make the story unrealistic (even though it is a mythological and fiction novel) because Percy is fighting huge killer monsters and a Greek god. Many compare this novel to Harry Potter and there's so many similarities between them yet they both have distinctive features to their plot. 

Rate: 4 Stars 
Slightly because of the similarity between this and Harry Potter. Another thing was the character development.
