He used to be quite infamous at Truham because of this. Unlike Tori, Michael is very optimistic and wacky.

This is the first in a new mystery series starring Riley Moon and Emerson Knight.

Through the streets of Washington, D.C., and down into the underground vault of the Federal Reserve in New York City, an evil plan is exposed. ![]() What starts off as an inquiry about missing bank funds in the Knight account leads to inquiries about a missing man, missing gold, and a life-and-death race across the country. At least Riley Moon thought it was her dream job, until she is given her first assignment: babysitting Emerson Knight.

The general concept of this book was something I was really into. I haven’t been in high school for a long time- but is this what they do now? Those crazy kids. Now here’s the twist, Riley believes that the Brooklyn is possessed by a demon and ropes Sofis along with her other minions into kidnapping Brooklyn and performing an exorcism on her. ![]() She befriends a loner (Brooklyn) but then is swept off her feet by a clique of popular girls (led by the queen bee, Riley). A new girl, Sofia (who has a bit of a dark past), has moved to a new school. The novel opens with the cliché of all clichés. It was marketed as “Mean Girls meets the Exorcist”. However, when I came across The Merciless by Danielle Vega (the pseudonym for Danielle Rollins), I decided I had to give this one a read. ![]() I usually jump on the teen bandwagon when there is a lot of hype surrounding it and I need to see what the fuss is about (Enter, The Hunger Games).

The first is that it absolutely pains me to see comments from readers expressing that they’re looking forward to a book, but have to wait until payday. We recently asked Colleen what made her write this book and why, instead of publishing it, did she decide to offer it to her readers for free and this was her response……. Ummmmm……. did we mention that Colleen gave this Novella to all her readers for FREE?īefore we go, we’d love to share this with you. Because this book was Colleen’s way of saying thank you to her readers for the love and support they’ve shown her since she first released Slammed, we thought it would be nice to give you guys the opportunity to tell Colleen what you thought of Finding Cinderella and in return, thank her for this wonderful gift. This Novella was beautiful, captivating, witty,superb….see what we mean? We could go on and on and on but we thought we’d do something different with this review. This author has a way of enveloping us in her stories and truly has a gift when it comes to bringing characters and stories to life and Finding Cinderella was no different. We’ve just about run out of adjectives to describe how much we love Colleen Hoovers work. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Tompkins, Paget Brewster, Busy Philipps, Nathan Fillion, Linda Cardellini, Patton Oswalt, Neil Patrick Harris, and many, many more. ![]() Based on the popular Hollywood stage show and Nerdist Industry podcast, The Thrilling Adventure Hour is a rip-roaring adventure anthology in the tradition of old-time radio serials, brought to you by a carnival of Hollywood and comic's finest!
