The Island Book Blast
Book Info-
Title-The Island
By- Jen Minkman
Publication Date-June 1, 2013
*Novella* (80 pages)
Genre- YA Dystopian
Blurb-
‘I walk toward the sea. The endless surface of the water extends to the horizon, whichever way I look.
Our world is small. We are on our own, and we only have ourselves to depend on. We rely on the Force deep within us, as taught to us by our forefathers.
If I were to walk westward from here, I would come across a barrier – the Wall.
Behind it, there are Fools. At least, that’s what everyone says.
I have never seen one.’
Leia lives on the Island, a world in which children leave their parents to take care of themselves when they are ten years old. Across this Island runs a wall that no one has ever crossed. The Fools living behind it are not amenable to reason – they believe in illusions. That’s what The Book says, the only thing left to the Eastern Islanders by their ancestors.
But when a strange man washes ashore and Leia meets a Fool face to face, her life will never be the same. Is what she and her friends believe about the Island really true?
Or is everyone in their world, in fact, a Fool?

Shantel Tessier's Debut Novel is an Emotional Roller Coaster
Undescribable, the debut novel for Shantel Tessier is
exactly that, indescribable. From
the beginning you are pulled into Samantha’s story as you feel her devastation
with her relationship with her boyfriend Jax. Then you’re immediately in this
love hate relationship with Slade. He is smoking hot but his confidence is not
only sexy but his downfall.
I won’t spoil the story as to the why’s and how’s Samantha
and Slade came to flourish but I will tell you that it was very intense. We
have two characters that are polar opposites. Slade has never worried about a
woman’s feelings and has used them for his sexual pleasure and Samantha is kind
hearted and loving woman, so tell me how is it their roles reverse?
Slade is completely smitten with Samantha but unfortunately
he’s failed a test even though he didn’t know how. Samantha is completely
attracted to Slade but there is a black cloud that hangs over her and it she
pushes him away. Slade has never worked so hard to impress a woman, which makes
the story all the more compelling.
There were times I wanted shake Samantha and yell “HELLO!
What are you thinking?!” but I remember how the story began and tried to be
empathic of her feelings. Then I
wanted to scream at Slade, “JUST TELL HER!” overall the story is emotional roller-coaster where you will experience love, sadness, confusion, lust, and
hope. A definite page-turner and I
recommend it.
