Book Review: Dead Ringer by Jessie Rosen (Pre-Order NOW)

Dead Ringer by Jessie Rosen

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

**I was gifted with an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review**

BYJessie Rosen

Ok more like 4 1/2 stars... The only reason why 1/2 a star is missing is because HELLO that ending was brutal. That was a cliff hanger above a sea of zombies. (yes I related it The walking dead) Ok so now about this book. This was an insane read. I started this book and was instantly drawn in and couldn't drop it for about 6 chapters. I just couldn't stop reading. Then I hit a block. Now this block I hit is more so for me and not because of the writing. So let me explain. I am hispanic & nosy as all hell so when I start getting impatient with something I take a break from it and then come back to it. So because of my characteristics I was slower in the middle of the book. Not at all because of the writing because every time I went back & picked it up I would get sucked in just a tiny bit more again and then I would get impatient with myself. Every time I would get impatient I would step away because I didn't want to be that person to skip to the end and read backward for the sake of answers. Boy am I thankful that I didn't read it backwards for answers because it made the WTF moments that much better. I found myself actually screaming "WHAT THE FUCK" at the dining room table while stuffing my face with a double cheeseburger from McDonalds so it probably sounded for like "Gwuat ga fugggg" and yeah the family looked at me like I was crazy. In that moment I knew that I needed that next book asap and that this book was awesome! this was such a good read and wow the PLOT TWIST are like WOAH I had to take a snack break to continue. This was full of mystery and the way that its written already makes your wonder "what is going on?" You are reading 3 different peoples POV. You have Laura, Charlie, & Sasha! Its up to us the reader to try to put things together. So now to the important question Jessie Rosen when is the next book coming out? Don't make us wait long. So many futures are hanging in the air and and so many pasts need to be uncovered still. Amazing ride with this one and I can't wait for the next book. So many answers!!!

MY Favorite Fictional _?

So considering I have taken a dive into my books lately and I cant seem to come back to reality because of it I decided why not have a little fun with my non reality and just answer a few questions from this questionnaire... Please feel free to comment with your responses. I love to see what others thoughts are. SOO without further a do lets get started.

1. Favorite fictional couple? hmmm... ok so this is truly hard for me! I wanna say Augustus Waters & Hazel Grace Lancaster from The Fault In Our Stars but well its kinda hard when 1 of them is no longer with us. Another fictional couple that is my favorite is Jace & Clary from The Mortal Instruments series also cant forget to mention Rosie & Alex from Love Rosie or in other countries the book also goes by the name of Where The Rainbow Ends

2. Favorite fictional character? a favorite fictional character of mine is Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones he has proven that people can look at you and make assumptions and judgements but if you use your intellect & wit then you can have the upper hand in just about any situation. Intelligence really can help you get through life.

3. Favorite fictional TV show? well thats easy Game of Thrones and if your not watching it and SHAME ON YOUUUU... I have to also throw this out there because I'm literally biting my nails thinking about it. In 2016 The Shadowhunters will premier and if you don't know what that is well its The Mortal Instruments book series turned into a show on ABC family so I will just go ahead and say it now... ITS MY OTHER FAVE!

4. Favorite fictional movie? well thats not fair at all... its like picking a favorite child! off the top of my head The Hobbit and yes I speak of all 3 of them. I cried like a big baby!

5. Favorite fictional villain? hm Sebastian Morgenstern aka Jonathan Morgenstern

6. Favorite fictional hero? Katniss Everdeen & Clary Fray & Tris Prior... "who run the world, GIRLS!"

7. Favorite fictional pet? Church the cat

8. Favorite fictional setting/universe? HOGWARTS!!!!!!!!!! but also i have an obsession with dystopian societies so any of those... I know i know my chances of survival are not that high but i don't know they just tend to be my favorite. Panem, post apocalyptic Chicago, & the whole Maze Runner era. LOVE!

9. Least favorite fictional couple? thats easy Jamie Lannister & Cersie Lannister.... need i say more?!

10. Least favorite fictional character? Lord Voldemort of course

11. Least favorite fictional TV show? people are gonna hate me on this buuuuuuuut. Pretty Little Liars, ok so before you jump down my throat about this just give me a sec to explain. I had to give up on that series because I got tired of there being this big secret of who was "A" and then not ever really finding out and clues leading to something totally different. I would have moved away by then. honestly just poof GONE!

12. Least favorite fictional movie? So it would be a lifetime movie... I don't often find myself on that channel however when I found out that Flowers In The Attic was gonna be turned into a movie I was stocked. Loved that one however they then picked up If There Be Thorns which is the 2nd book in that series and that movie was AWFUL!!!! nothing like the book not even the overall plot to me seemed the same. They killed important characters off really early!

13. Least favorite fictional villain? Orks in The Hobbit. I will never get over Kili dying. It still makes my face leak!

14. Least favorite fictional hero? Elena Gilbert from The Vampire Diaries. I couldn't handle her wailing... Just give it up and ugly cry already.

15. Least favorite fictional pet? i cant think of any pets that are my least favorite. Sorry!

16. Least favorite fictional setting/universe? hmmm... Game of Thrones. Ok so here is the thing I only said that answer because my survival would be pretty much non existent. However, let me learn how to wield a sword and horseback ride (I'm scared of horses.... NOT GONNA HAPPEN!) and maybe throw some hatchets and my answer might be different!
