Review by: Tessa

Everyone in Florida knows Tia is a flirt. She goes to every party and never leaves alone. All she wants is a carefree senior year with no homework and a lot of hookups.

Will is the new guy from Minnesota. He's like a polar bear in the rain forest. It does not take long for him to figure out that being the new guy is worse than the Florida heat.

Tia is fine with her life until she meets the new kid, Will. His peculiar accent and charm labels him as her next target. But one night after a party changes everything. Tia does not want the restraints of being in a relationship, but Will does not get the message.
When Tia and Will are voted the Biggest Flirts in the senior class, neither of them are fine with it. The whole school is put into a gossip frenzy, especially Will's girlfriend. Can Tia and Will keep it casual or will they let their title ruin their fragile relationship?

Summary from Goodreads:

Seventeen-year-old Kat Hartland loathes Unrequited, the world's biggest boy band. Is she the only girl in Sydney who can't be bothered with perfect-looking Angus Marsden?

Give her 5 Seconds of Summer. Now.

Or maybe the seriously-hot med student who rescued her on a train—and who could be Douglas Booth's twin! Perfect formal partner, much?

But when Kat comes face to face with Angus Marsden himself, things start to get complicated.

Very. Throw in a deranged female popstar, final exams, a part in the musical and a mum who just doesn't get it—and where is her best friend?

When did life get so crazy? Kat's just an ordinary schoolgirl.

Isn't she?

Excerpt
Her attention drifts to the boy sitting opposite her on the train. In her anti-band flap, she hadn’t  noticed him board. What an oversight! He’s on his phone and she shamelessly eavesdrops. He’s  talking about his uni project while she takes mental note of his cheekbones and jawline—the  type usually reserved for people like superman and Douglas Booth. On-trend reading glasses.  Dark, floppy hair. A satchel full of textbooks gaping open on the seat beside him.  Hmm. At some point during his highly-technical phone conversation, which he is conducting in  an incredibly warm, deep voice that Kat could listen to all day, she rouses the courage to smile at  him. But he looks at her like she’s a thirteen-year-old Unrequited fan and glazes right over.  Great.  She wants to say ‘Hey, I’m seventeen and I hate them! This is absolutely a case of mistaken  identity, trust me ...’ But saying that might not come across as charmingly as it does in her  imagination and he might end up thinking she’s more of a lunatic than he likely already does. It’s a bad day when Angus Marsden and the boys, of all people, come between Kat and a  potential date with a med student. (She’s decided that’s what he is, having stalkerishly scanned  the titles on the textbooks spilling out of his bag and having seen enough of Grey’s Anatomy to put two and two together. And yes, ‘date’ may be getting ahead of herself a tad, but she’s  particularly good at getting ahead of herself.) WHY didn’t she do her hair? Oh, hang on! He’s off the phone! Try to look casual. Look out the window. DO NOT MAKE EYE  CONT— GAH! Too late!  Future Dr McDreamy fleetingly locks his dark brown eyes with hers. Her heart-rate explodes.  Her entire life passes before her eyes ...  Oh, wait! That’s what happens when you’re about to die, not when you’re falling in love. Get  your emergencies right, Kat!

Top Ten Tuesday #13: Top Ten Books that People Recommend to Us

This is a weekly meme hosted by the amazing girls over at The Broke and the Bookish. This week's topic is books that people say that we HAVE to read.
Book recommendations are a huge part of the bookish side of the blogosphere. Almost every post is about the hottest book that you have to read NOW. This also happens to all of us in real life, mostly because all of our friends are bookish people too.
We are very overwhelmed with book recommendations. My Goodreads TBR list is bordering on 200 and growing every day.
So, this week we are going to talk about the books that people recommend to us the most.

Helia’s Shadow Part One by K.C. Neal 

(The Starlight Age Series #1) 

Author: K. C. Neal

Publication date: Fall, 2014

Genres: Science Fiction, Young Adult

Synopsis

Nineteen years ago, aliens arrived on a dying Earth with advanced technology and the promise of ensuring human survival in exchange for a place to settle. They were hailed as the saviors of humans and Earth.

Today, 16-year-old Helia wants two things in life: to step out of her over-protective mother’s shadow and become an engineer, and to stop hiding her romance with alien boy Kalo. But the world definitely isn’t ready for a human-alien romance. And worse, the human-alien partnership is crumbling. Humans are being arrested without explanation. Some of them are never seen again.

When the alien leader imprisons her mother on a false charge, Helia discovers the aliens never intended to help humans at all. Now, she must join forces with alien rebels and convince the young rebel leader that humans aren’t expendable. If she succeeds, humans have a chance at survival and she has a chance at love. If she fails, the dwindling human race dies out in slavery.
