Love & Luck by Jenna Evans Welch

-
Love & Luck (Love & Gelato, #2)Addie is visiting Ireland for the summer for her aunt's huge TV wedding. She's hoping for a distraction from her recent heartbreak. But her brother, Ian, won't give her a break. He's pressuring her to tell their mom but Addie is against that at all costs. The two have gone from having a close bond to bickering every few seconds. After finding a guidebook called Ireland for the Heartbroken, maybe she'll be okay. Addie just can't wait to visit her friend in Italy when this is all over. But then plans change and she meets Rowan, a dashing Irish boy.
        Warning: this book will destroy your soul. I loved Love & Luck SO MUCH! I can't express how amazing this book was. Jenna's writing was great! She made me feel like I was in the Emerald Isle right alongside Addie. I loved the sarcastic and quirky narration too.
        To sum up the first 100 pages of Love & Luck: secrets, lies, and black eyes. Addie kept this big secret for most of the book and we got to uncover little bits and pieces here and there. I was kept on the edge of my seat.
        Love & Luck was fast-paced and it was never boring. Seriously, I never wanted to put this book down. It immediately sucked me in. I of course loved it. I loved that we got to see Lina and Ren in the end of the book too. I can't promise that I didn't have an emotional breakdown because I loved Lina and Ren so much. Reading Love & Luck made me want to go back and reread Love & Gelato.
        The ending of this book was so sweet. The whole story in general was amazing. I connected so much because I could relate to everything the characters were going through.
        I love this book and would definitely recommend it to anyone. I can't wait for the next book in this series: Love & Olives.

Page Count: 250 pages (Hardcover) Published: August 18, 2009 My Rating: 4 stars Series: Villians book 1 Genre: Fantasy   While she may seem like a jealous queen after a young girl's beauty, she is so much more. They may have been logic and heartache behind the Queen's attempts on the sweet girl's life. The Queen struggles with her looks and the trauma from her childhood helps her accept the fact that she must become the fairest of them all.    This is definitely my favorite version of Snow White! From the Queen's early days as a child to her last moments, Serena Valentino took this seemingly innocent fairy tale and turned it into something dark and twisted. This is by far the most heartbreaking story of Snow White ever. At the same time, this book has enough plot twists to keep any reader entertained. You'll never believe who the magic mirror really is!      Even though Snow White has never been my favorite, this is definitely a book I would...
