Letterbox Love #124

Letterbox Love is a way to give all of the books I receive for review some exposure. Summaries are taken from the cover, or Amazon/NetGalley/Goodreads in the case of e-books, unless otherwise stated. All of the books are in exchange for an honest review.

The Power of Dark, Robin Jarvis (proof)

Something is brewing the coastal town of Whitby. To best friends Lil and Verne, it just seems like a particularly bad storm. But Cherry Cerise, the last of the town’s guardian witches, fears that ancient forces are at work, reviving the curse of a long lost magical artefact and a feud that has survived even beyond death…

This was a beautifully-wrapped surprise from Egmont! Thank you!

How Hard Can Love Be?, Holly Bourne (paperback)

So I'm spending the summer in California, with the mum who upped and abandoned me – and I think I'm falling for a guy guaranteed to break my heart. This is a situation destined to fail.

All Amber wants is a little bit of love. Her mum has never been the caring type, even before she moved to America. But Amber’s hoping that spending the summer with her can change all that.

And then there’s Prom King Kyle, the serial heartbreaker. Can Amber really be falling for him? Even with best friends Evie and Lottie’s advice, there’s no escaping the fact: love is hard.

Woo, finally! Thanks Usborne!

Geek Girl: Head Over Heels, Holly Smale (hardback)

Harriet Manners knows many facts:

- Fourteen squirrels were once detained as spies.

- Snakes and Ladders and Chess were both invented in the same country.

- Astronauts’ hearts become rounder in space.

And for once, Harriet knows exactly how her life should go. She's got it ALL mapped out. So when her friends seem less than happy, Harriet is determined to Make Things Happens. If only everyone else would stick to the script…

But is following the plan going to break hearts all over again for Geek Girl?

Thanks Harper Collins! I am WOEFULLY behind on this series, but I’m hoping to catch up soon!
