Butterfly Kisses By Mia Castile

   

   Mia Castile graciously gifted me with a ARC of Butterfly Kisses.I laughed,I squealed,I sighed...In fact I even Cried.Mia has written yet another winner.Butterfly Kisses takes place a few months after Becoming a Butterfly ends.Which is Book 1 in the series and one you will need to read prior to Butterfly Kisses.Reader be warned,It is a deep read many issues are addressed and they are addressed well.
     Butterfly Kisses,Book 2 takes us several months into Lana's recovery from her suicide attempt.She has to deal with her own issues in which she goes to counseling.On top of that dealing with her nemesis from school is the icing on the cake.Lana is befriended by Britt who has her own boatload of issues.I really enjoyed Britt...Just wanted to hug her and tell her its going to be okay. Laney is still dealing the the aftereffects of what happened in Becoming a Butterfly(Book 1). Where she pretended to be someone else and everyone found out..If you haven's read it you must.Luckily She has Chase who is her very best friend..who has hopes of being more.Will He?Well I for one will NOT post any spoilers..How unfair would that be for you my fellow readers?Butterfly Kisses is worth reading and reading again.
      I have only one critique and that is how it ended.Without giving it away lets just say we are very much looking forward to Butterfly Migration (Book 3).Mia has written another wonderful book.It deals with some big issues and the characters with them in ways that are human,Not perfect but Human. Butterfly Kisses is a wonderful read that you should not miss.Pick up Becoming a Butterfly first if you haven't read it prior to Butterfly Kisses.Haven't read anything by Mia Castile?You should,You'll be so happy you did.
Thank you again Mia for writing another winner.Keep up the great work!

From Mia Castile Personally-
I've decided that there's going to be 2 more installments to The Butterfly Chronicles. The Butterfly Migration and a 4th un-named book. More teenage issues to explore, lies to be kept, and love matches to make.

Catching Jordan By Miranda Kenneally

Catching Jordan By Miranda Kenneally 


ONE OF THE BOYS
What girl doesn't want to be surrounded by gorgeous jocks day in and day out? Jordan Woods isn't just surrounded by hot guys, though- she leads them as the captain and quarterback of her high school football team. They all see her as one of the guys and that's just fine. As long as she gets her athletic scholarship to a powerhouse university.
But everything she's ever worked for is threatened when Ty Greeen moves to her school. Not only is he an amazing QB, but he's also amazingly hot. And for the first time, Jordan's feeling vulnerable. Can she keep her head in the game while her heart's on the line?


------------------------------

   Ive had this book on my Kindle for awhile now and finally had the chance to read it.I had high hopes for this book and I enjoyed it.I didnt Love it however.It was really hard for me to get my head around a girl football player(I know girl power and all that) But usually girls dont want to be football players.I had issues with how Jordan talked.It was so distracting..you can be a athletic girl but you do not have to talk like one of the guys.Jordan just didnt do anything for me..the way she talked,ate and acted was way to much like a guy for a senior girl in high school.Yes I am being stereotypical,But I just had a very hard time getting past it.I enjoyed reading it for the most part.
