Book Review: Unruly Julie by Alan Moss

Image
Unruly Julie  by Alan Moss  is a children's picture book with an expected publication date of January 28, 2025. This rhyming kids book is about a girl named Julie who gets herself into trouble by being mischievous before finally realizing she wants to behave like a proper little girl. I'd like to thank NetGalley and Troubador Publishing Ltd. for providing me with an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of Unruly Julie  for free in exchange for my honest review. I found the title and cover of the book to be quite catchy and wanted to see what it was all about, and it didn't disappoint. The content of the story was quite catchy and memorable, and the illustrations were quite fun. The lesson was a passive lesson that I hope children will pick up on as it's an important one. It's just an all around fun book that's appropriate for children between the ages of three and five. Five out of five stars is what I give Unruly Julie  by Alan Moss. This is a first in a series that kid...

Book Review: Sunset Kiss (Sunset Island, #2) by Cherie Bennett

Young Adult Book Series


Young Adult Book SeriesThe second book in the Sunset Island book series by Cherie Bennett, Sunset Kiss (Sunset Island, #2), is a great sequel to the first book in the series, Sunset Island (Sunset Island, #1). Unlike the first book, Sunset Kiss features Carrie Alden's point of view of being an au pair and working for a celebrity. When Carrie Alden decides to shed her responsible personality and be like other young adults, she finds out quickly that being a wild child isn't all it's cracked up to be.

What I love about this book in this series is that it actually teaches a lesson . . . being a responsible person and that there could be dire consequences if you aren't responsible. The lessons are that you should never leave the children you're watching alone at the house and to drink responsibly. There is even a secondary lesson . . . be yourself! If you want more details, you'll have to read the book!

The first time I read this book series made me want to be an au pair, and I wished that I had friends like Carrie, Emma, and Sam. Although, Sam is my least favorite character of the three and Emma was my favorite character. I remember not being able to wait to get my hands on these books and read the next installment. I was always surprised at how things turned out. Reading it as an adult, it was a lot more predictable but still very enjoyable. It actually made me nostalgic rereading Sunset Kiss.

I definitely would recommend this book to tweens and teens between the ages of eleven and eighteen. In my opinion, much of the subject matter is still very relevant today. My rating is four out of five stars.
