And Thirst looks really good (Might try that one) But Cherry Blossom Dreams will definitely go into my TBR because I just love that blurb and cover.

A fun, fluffy read for a rainy afternoon. Thirst would have been incredible, had it been older characters and longer, the premise is awesome.

From all three books, that one was my favourite.

It's perfect for a quick read if you're looking for something fluffy.

But I do like the survival aspect of Thirst which sounds good.

There's been so many mixed reviews about Bright Before Sunrise, so I'm not sure if it's for me. The cover looks gorgeous though, the survival aspect of Thirst sounds amazing though - adding the book to my TBR :) wonderful reviews overall <3 Benish | <a href="http://feministreflections.com/" rel="nofollow">Feminist Reflections</a>Beenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17718861012681693010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-346215484089416831.post-10116820399869167672015-06-07T06:02:45.506+10:002015-06-07T06:02:45.506+10:00Chery Blossom Dreams seems to have stood out the m...Chery Blossom Dreams seems to have stood out the most to me. I can’t quite find the words to explain how or why, but for so many reasons I am unable to list at the present moment (ha ha ha!). Internal conflict and drama lures me in! I can’t even begin to imagine what Sasha deals with internally with having her momma date one of her teachers. This may be something I would pick up and read before making the decision to share it with my oldest girl :) Great post!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103917363976883472noreply@blogger.com
