Review - Deception - Teri Terry

I loved reading the first in this series of Teri Terry's new series of books, Contagion last year, (press here to see my review: http://busybeasbook.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/review-contagion-by-teri-terry.html), so I was delighted when Teri gave me an advanced copy of the sequel Deception to read and review!

Deception is a thrilling book with loads of plot twists and an amazing adventure that will keep you gripped even after you have finished it. When Shay betrays Kia, and disappears without telling him, he refuses to give up. Meanwhile, Callie sticks beside Kai, and when they finally come face to face with other survivors, she feels at home after not being able to communicate with her brother for so long, yet Kai isn’t comfortable with these new survivors accessing his thoughts and secrets.


Shay however, has turned herself in and found other captive survivors in an institute where they are trying to learn about their secret senses. Spike, Beatriz and others from the institution barely escape from captivity when survivor hunter’s track them down…

This is an amazing book, and I cannot wait for book three. If you are into faced-paced, unexpected twists and a fun story then this is the book for you! One of my favourite books and I highly recommend it for its unique superiority! I CAN'T WAIT for book three!

 I LOVE deception but along with all the surprises in the plot, Teri further surprised me by naming one of the characters after me (and another after my little brother!). This was mega-amazing, and I feel so lucky and honoured. THANK YOU SO MUCH TERI!

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein - Review

January is the 200th Birthday of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and as a teenage girl writer I really admire Mary who was only nineteen when the book was published in 1818, and so I have reviewed the book as a Birthday Celebration!

My battered copy of Frankenstein!

Captain Robert Walton was trying to reach the North Pole, when he met Victor Frankenstein: The Creator.

Frankenstein, ill from the terrible cold, has been welcomed upon Walton’s ship where he reveals his past and the story of ‘The Monster.’ Frankenstein shows his private world of creating the creature and shows how his mistakes had led to him to be sick with worry, for how had he let his masterpiece escape? After endless search and disastrous help, he reveals word of his brother, William, who had been murdered!

More crimes committed towards his family, forced him to face his creation, but The Monster reveals that there is more to him than meets the eye. Is everything Victor hears true? Or is this even the Monsters real story, and why does he end up in the North Pole almost dead?


Frankenstein is a fantastic book full of creative twists and turns written by the young author Mary Shelley. Brilliant old English, that starts off tough but pushes you into the story and will never let you out. I couldn’t put it down and thought it was one of the best books I have ever read!

Me outside Albion House where Mary finshed writing Frankenstein!
