Hello people of the world! Guess what? I have a new book review brought to you by the lovely D L Richardson. Drum roll please! And the book is: The Bird With The Broken Wings. This book was addictive even though at first I had no idea what was happening because I was in a whole new world. I think once again the suspense kept me reading. The beginning was a little slow paced and depressive all with the hard times Jet one of our main characters was going through. Her life is tough but shes still a optimist. Her father is a rich man who still wouldn't use some of his money on his daughters own prom dress and kept his wife and daughter tucked up in the house. Like prisoners, the mother was almost never allowed to use the money on things she would like. And if she did buy something she had to wash it various times to make it look ancient. Then are character Jet does something out of her misery she downs pills and alcohol blacking her out from the life that was hers.
The only things is when she wakes up she's not at home shes at a hospital with two other teenagers in the room. One a girl Rachel younger than her who is certainly bossy but had what seemed like a strong and good personality. She cares deeply for the second character Ben who Jet catches a liking too and he catches a liking to her as well. Which makes Rachel jealous of course. Ben was in the war and had gotten amnesia and forgotten his life. He doesn't mind though since he is living the life in a hospital with a pool (which Jet just seems to love into she gets attacked in it). This story was funny, dramatic, and romantic and is definitely recommended, the story picks up when Jet goes to the strange hospital and views it as a get away from her life. But things take a turn for the worst when she is attacked and nearly killed by a invincible monster in the pool. This is a great YA book and I love the characters even the crazy yet hot Ben who seems to not remember his past. I would give this book 4 stars out of 5. The writer D L Richardson makes the contact quick and sweet with remarkable details in the between. And yes it was a VERY creative story idea since it has nothing to do with the main character being a werewolf or vampire. Points to that. All I can say is you must read this story is different, funny, and dramatic everything a teen wants in there life.

Book Review #1: Shudder By: Samantha Durante
Hi everybody,

But don't worry people, we have are hero and heroine two teens who are in a romantic relationship (Cue the giggling) The kind that makes you look up form the book; make voice and detail that author gives in this story is enticing it leads me to another word and keeps me there a hard task only great authors can accomplish. These characters pull is in to there horrifying life and gees I wish I was as knowledgeable as them and yes I used the word knowledgeable to sound smarter don't judge. I practically like the character Alessa the bad ass girl with a super power to feel emotions and things around her. Her character draws me into the book as she fights to survive and save the society people from the fiction that is there lives. But of course there are people after her in the government that just have to make her life a living hell. Along with her is that boy she gets romantic with Issac. There is also another character that I sympathized for and enjoyed intently Regina the leader of the rebels who where against the government. Samantha Durante deserves to be even more well known amongst the other YA writers. If you like Legend and Across the Universe you'll devour this book!

Alessa's not as bad ass as Black Widow but shes still cool. |
Of course there are somethings I have to point out. Even though there not much maybe at the beginning of the story the author should have done a small recap of the past story for readers who happen to pick up the series in out of order. Other than that everything is great so far! From the lovable characters, to the thrilling suspense, and into the twisted world that is Paragon. So I do recommend this book to lovers of the dystopian genre and until next time keep reading and I'll keep reviewing. ;)
