The Edge Of Never Review!

The Edge Of Never - J. A. Redmerski

Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett thought she knew exactly where her life was going. But after a wild night at the hottest club in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina, she shocks everyone-including herself-when she decides to leave the only life she's ever known and set out on her own. Grabbing her purse and her cell phone, Camryn boards a Greyhound bus ready to find herself. Instead, she finds Andrew Parrish.

Sexy and exciting, Andrew lives life like there is no tomorrow. He persuades Camryn to do things she never thought she would and shows her how to give in to her deepest, most forbidden desires. Soon he becomes the center of her daring new life, pulling love and lust and emotion out of her in ways she never imagined possible. But there is more to Andrew than Camryn realizes. Will his secret push them inseparably together-or destroy them forever?


Where to even start? I decided to give this book a go a while ago once I had found it whilst browsing through Goodreads one afternoon. I had previously read books by Redmerski, so I was very willing to give this book a go! If im honest I am so glad that I did give this book a go, I really loved it, and it took my emotions on a little roller coaster for a while! I know I have said this a few times with 'Easy' and 'Pushing The Limits', but this book has become one of my favourites, and joins those two I mentioned before at the top of the list.

So 'The Edge of never' is based around the leading lady Camryn Bennett, who leaves her life in North Carolina and takes off on her own, to live a different way to 'find herself'. Of course she meets someone along the way, the very sexy Andrew Parrish, and he helps her to find herself. (I know I am just writing out the blurb in a different way). Even though Andrew helps Camryn to find herself, and she him I guess, there is definitely a secret coming that I must say, I did not expect.

Camryn Bennett is definitely one of my favourite characters in a book, mainly because I loved her personality, and how she dealt with the things that were happening to her/ around her. She is a character that is easy to love, and so is Andrew. Together they are even more loveable, and they draw you more into the story, getting you to root for them from quite early on. This book is focused mainly of these two characters, and for the most part they are the only important characters that are focused upon. However at some points other characters are brought in, and have important roles within the story. Even though these characters don't have as much page time, they are all strong characters, meaning that Redmerski has created a book that has both a strong storyline and strong characters to help draw you in. 

The storyline in this book is great! It builds slowly but still manages to keep you interested, mainly just to see where its going to go. Not many books can get away with having a slow build and still keeping the reader interested, which speaks volumes about this book. As I said the storyline builds slowly at the start, and I mean at the start only, as it takes off at a much faster pace just when you are not expecting it. This change it pace works extremely well within this book, well it did for me anyway!

Can we also just take note of the fantastic cover for this book? I don't know what it is about it but the cover does draw you in, and after reading the book I feel as though it suits the story very well! And its pretty!

I would definitely recommend this book to a lot of people, I have even been recommending it to people! I know that I will be reading it again soon, and I suggest that you guys go and read it as well! I also highly recommend that people read anything written by Redmerski, but mainly 'The Mayfair Moon' and 'Kindred', the first two books in 'The Darkwoods Trilogy'. 
Bye for now :)

TMI City Of Bones Movie!

If any of you have followed my blog you will know that I absolutely adore The Mortal Instruments series written by Cassandra Clare, and that I have for many years now. Some of you will also be aware of the fact that the first book in the series 'City Of Bones' has been made into a film that is due for release in August. I really can not wait for this movie to be released, and as its getting closer I keep getting more and more excited! Recently some stills have been released for the film and I felt that I should post my favourite of them up here for you guys!


If you want to find out more about the movie or even see the remainder of the stills that I have not included then you should head on over to The Mortal Institute which is where I got the stills from.
