Book Review - "Hell is Empty all the Demons are Here" - Mark Rounds

I am a huge fan of free books, I mean who isn't right? So I received this beauty from full of books. If you guys do not know about them, please visit them on Twitter @Full ofBookss. Not only was I excited to be a part of a book blog and community, I also got free books in the process. I mean it's more than just free book that made me happy, I was to do something that I love, blogging and reading. I started book blog over a year ago depending on when this actually post. Blogging has helped me tremendously and it makes me look forward to things and keep positive thoughts in my head.

I was given a list to choose from and this was the only book that sounded a tad bit interesting. So from the start I already knew that this book wouldn't get a good review. There is my negative thinking kicked in. I know I shouldn't judge a book by its cover but, look wise it doesn't look appealing to me. It was very hard not to judge it even though I know I shouldn't have.

I opened up the first page and I made sure to clear my head and keep only positive vibes flowing. I don't know if it was me or if I was getting into another reading slump again. I set the book down for a few hours and then I gave it another chance and I got two chapters in. I don't know how I feel about this book honestly. I hate writing bad reviews but I was determined to finish it and like it but I couldn't. I felt like it was a drag for me.

So I put the book down for quite a long time and I forgot about it actually. I was actually hoping to revisit it and maybe get into it more than I was before. But days turn into weeks and I still haven't picked it back up. I know I have been slacking but it's not on purpose I promise. I was really determined to start over and complete this task. So I started all over again I truly wanted to get lost inside the story. I read a few pages and pages kept turning interning. It was a very easy read and was very fast pace. 

The pros of this book were it's a very beautiful hunk a book. Two, it's a very fast pace book. The third pro was the characters, they develop very quickly and you learn about each character as they come. The final pro was that it started off with a bang and it sparked an interest for me. But with every pro there is a con.

The cons of the book were as followed. The first thing for me was that it was very intimidating, both size and the genre of the book. I'm very picky when it comes to reading. I like reading books in genres I know I will like or love. The next con was that some parts are very dragging and I felt like some of the characters were just pushed onto me. I actually got lost reading it because I was so confused with who was who and what was going on. 

Book Review - "One With You' - Sylvia Day

Book Review - "One With You' - Sylvia Day

                Please excuse me while I fan girl right now! You do not understand how excited I was when I stumbled across the news of the final installment of the Crossfire series. So I was walking to the train to go home from work, I was really into my music and I was staring at every advertisement and how graffiti decorated the walls. Then there it was, plastered on the wall with no artwork painted on it. Sylvia Day’s newest release to the Crossfire series “One with You”. I did a double take, thinking my eyes were deceiving me of this wonderful poster. But in fact it wasn’t, this beauty was real and there would be closure for Eva and Gideon’s relationship.

                I’ve been waiting for this for the longest time now. The last book I read of the series was in July 2015. That’s a very long time for me to wait to see what happens in their crazy lives. I just knew that this book will be the cherry on top of the sundae. I had to wait a few months to get my hands on this beauty. When I did finally get my hands around the perfect spine, I almost died. My heart shattered into a million pieces, I enjoyed it though. The cover, the one, the thickness, everything was simply beautiful. When I started reading I couldn’t stop. I have followed since 2012. That’s a very long time being a fan of Sylvia Day’s work. Being able to watch Eva and Gideon grow and work together was a great pleasure and I couldn’t help but be in complete awe.  

                I don’t think I have anything negative to say about this book. Well I know that everything is completely fictional and it is a bummer because their relationship was so cute and hot. Realistically this never happens and a lot of erotica’s’ today tend to follow very similar outlines. This series have been compared to the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy. Let me just say that it is similar in some aspects of it but overall the Crossfire series beats Fifty Shades for creativity, writing styles, character development and growth.

                In my opinion I liked both Eva and Gideon equally. On both cases they have done their own share of dirt in their past and both owned up to it and were able to leave it in the past and grow together. They were so perfect for each other at the end of the day. Their differences were a huge thing but love overcame anything else. They both grew up both alone and as a couple. I literally cannot get over that this was the end of the series. My heart broke but it was a great four years with Eva, Gideon, and Sylvia Day.

                Now for the ratings, on Goodreads and Amazon I gave this beauty a solid 5 out of 5 stars. If you didn’t catch the drift yet, I simply loved this book and I highly recommend this series to everyone who likes sex, love, and books.
