 RADIATE

by

MARLEY GIBSON

Published by: Graphia / Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

Acquired: Marley Gibson

I read and reviewed Radiate by Marley Gibson a little while ago and loved it!  As the mum of a cheerleader and co-owner of a cheer merchandise store... I thought it would be great to get a couple signed and give them away. It's an inspirational and enjoyable story that teenagers could do with reading!

Marley sent me a stack of bookmarks and three signed books !

Been too busy with other blog stuff to read it....*BLASPHEMY*..ha!
I am just hanging to read about 8 books ASAP....gotta clear the schedule people!!! and stay awake..hehe!

MAGNIFICENT TRILOGY
FIFTY SHADES
BRILLIANT, BOLD, HONEST WRITING


Fifty Shades Of Grey by E.L. James
I bought on Kindle
Fifty Shades Darker
Fifty Shades Freed


Can't rave enough about this trilogy!!
I've read them all, I know there are a lot of readers who are a bit icky for this trilogy, but that is why the world of books is what it is, sometimes we don't all dig the same book. So much more than sex are these books, it is bottom line a love story about saving a guy who was abused and hurt in many ways. And a girl who was the only person who could save him and give him the life he deserved. Christian to me is a very stand out character as he IS living a life that not a lot understand and he is a very bold character that E.L. James has written with a lot of her heart and soul. I personally think, to truly give this trilogy a go you have to read the whole lot, not one book , not half a book and think that is all that this trilogy is about, cause it's not, there is a whole lot more you are missing out on:)
