Six Moon Summer

Six Moon Summer (Seasons of the Moon, #1)




Title: Six Moon Summer (Seasons of the Moon #1)
Author: S.M. Reine
Genre: Paranormal/Fantasy
Published: April 2011
Medium Read In: E-book
Pages: 198

Rating: 3.5

Why I Read It: I got this on my Kindle for free (how I always get my e-books). This is one of the 140+ books on my e-reader, so I'm trying to make a dent in the list. One of the 11 books I have read on my Kindle.

Summary: Rylie's been bitten.

She's changing.

And now she has three months to find a cure before becoming a werewolf... forever.

Rylie Gresham hates everything about summer camp: the food, the fresh air, the dumb activities, and the other girls in her cabin. But the worst part is probably being bitten by a werewolf. Being a teenager is hard enough, but now she's craving raw flesh and struggles with uncontrollable anger. If she doesn't figure out a way to stop the transformation, then at the end of summer, her life is worse than over. She'll be a monster.


Review: I love the paranormal so this was a good read for me. Rylie was an okay narrator, but things could have been a little better. Reine wrote your classic werewolf book and it could have been different in some ways. Rylie's struggle to find a cure for her not to transform is engaging and understanding. Her emotional roller coaster ride was an amazing journey to read about. I want to see if the rest of the series will be better than this one.

Writing Wednesday | "Rolling Hills and Mighty Mountains"

This is something I wrote for a contest of some type for figment.com. I just love this one a lot because it's based off a vacation I took years ago. Hope you all enjoy! It started out as any vacation would. A long car drive down the highway watching other cars zoom by and making shapes out of the clouds. Sometimes I would sleep, but other times I would imagine being anywhere else than in the car. Grandpa would look at me in the rear view mirror from time to time as he drove, but I paid no special attention to his glances. Why should I? I didn't want to be stuck in the car as we headed to see some relatives I had never met in West Virginia. I was bored. There was nothing to do but stare out the window and even that got boring after a while. "What are you thinking about, Nicole?" Mom asked from behind me. I turned around in my seat to look at Mom. She was reading another Jane Austen novel while my sister was leaning against her shoulder, asleep. How my mo...

Five Tips to Get Out of a Reading Slump

Hey fellow readers! So seeing as I've been in a bit of an off-and-on reading slump for the past couple of months, I decided that I'll give you a few tips to help you all get out of a slump when you find yourselves in one. Without further preamble, here are five tips to out of a reading slump. 1.  Do Something Else: Sometimes after a really good/emotional/powerful book, it's easy to fall into a reading slump. Doing something else- whether it be playing video games or watching t.v.- can be a worthwhile break from reading. A break from reading can sometimes help to reignite the passion to read. 2. Get a Change of Scenery: Reading in the same spot all the time can cause a reading slump. So go find a new spot to read! Be it in the kitchen, the living room, or outside. Reading in a different place can be very beneficial to keep from falling into a slump. 3. Find a New Genre to Read: When reading the same genre over and over again, it causes a reading slump due to reading th...

Writing Wednesday | Writing Prompt "Candy Hearts"

Since Valentine's Day was yesterday, I decided to post this piece in honor of it. The writing might seem a little rushed, so I apologize for that. Without further ado, I present to you "Candy Hearts"! Sophia gave a mental groan when she walked into school and saw all the red heart decorations in the halls. Today was Valentine's Day and she was not so happy about it. She could already hear several couples saying sweet nothings to each other and practically see them kissing like there's no tomorrow. She walked to her locker where her best friend, Amy, was waiting. "Morning, Sophia!" Amy exclaimed, enthusiastically. Sophia gave her a glare and opened her locker. Amy giggled at her best friend's expression. She knew how much Sophia hated Valentine's Day ever since her ex-boyfriend broke up with her on the same day almost three years ago. For Sophia, this day always brought back such painful memories. She took out some books, put them in ...
