BOOK REVIEW by Michelle:

Misty Provencher always manages to throw in twists that blind side me in her books. She has such a knack for humor and emotion in her books. The Cornerstone series can make my sides hurt from Zane’s dialogue, it can have me holding onto my lunch with the infamous Free Ball scenes and it can have me all tied up in knots getting all angst ridden.

JAMB was no exception.

We start off at the Hotel Celare for a quarter of the book with Addo doing what I love, being this wise, witty , cookie loving ...errr....Addo J

I love Addo Larry, he just brings something special to this series. The natives, especially the moon baring ones are getting restless and Addo does what a great Addo can, he calms the natives.

The last surviving Addo has to be kept safe and tension is rife. 

Addo is always planning ahead and thinking like the wise man he is. 

But then Addo pops up in a canopy closer to me. He shouts again, “These Veritas tunnels are the oingo boingo!”

But things don’t go smoothly.

BAM! 

The fit hits the shan ( read the book ) and chaos breaks out.

I LOVE Garrett, he is such a cool guy. He has such love for Nalena. 

Misty, you sure know how to get your readers all gahhhhhhh!

This smile is thick and heartless. He holds up his middle finger, aimed right at me.

Well. Done.

I was all gahhhhhhh and biting my nails and like NoooOOooooOoooo..... WT!!!!!

Rinse and repeat.

I loved what you did with characters in this book which I won’t name for spoiling.

I LOVE Willow the teddy bear. Thankyou. xxx My Willow loved her part you gave her, a very important bear. I do hope Willow is ok? 

Zane is this great sidekick character, he always makes me laugh.

Zane farts. 

“Actually, that was what I meant to say,” he tells his twin.


The curveballs are thrown at the reader, which I LOVED!

Clever Misty.

The ending............... OMG!

Betrayal, twists, curveballs, love, lust, angst, jealousy, humor, hunger for power, make up this installment.

Who can they truly trust? Can they trust each other? Can they find trust in thy enemy?

Once we got past the Hotel Celare, I am not joking this book took off like a Free Ball in flight. Hang on to your ...well, whatever you can grab. The pace got turned up like Batman’s Turbo Jets on his Bat Mobile.

Freakin A!


Bring. On . # 4!

Woot!

I am busting to say things but I can't for spoiling. So pick up this very original YA series and find out what I didn't tell you.
