Blog Tour: Capture by Penyy Reid



Title: Capture (Hypothesis #3) 
Author: Penny Reid 
Synopsis:One week. Manhattan apartment. Super-hot ex-boyfriend. …What’s the worst that could happen? It’s been nine months since Kaitlyn Parker has seen or heard from Martin Sandeke—nine months and five stages of matter. She’s lived through the worst of first-love heartbreak, and is most certainly stronger (and less likely to hide in science cabinets) than ever before. But now Martin is back. And he wants to be friends. But he’s sending mixed signals to the Bunsen burner in Kaitlyn’s pants. Will Martin re-capture Kaitlyn’s heart? Can Kaitlyn and Martin ever be just friends? Or, despite an abundance of chemistry, are some bonds just too unstable to endure?


My review:
I just love these series, seriously! I really don´t want it to end cause it made me live something extraordinary that I craved. 

Capture is the last part in this 3 book series. If you loved Kaitlyn and Martin in Attraction and Heat you will defenitely lose your mind over them in Capture. I can just say words of wonder over Penny Reid´s masterpieces, she has fastly and easily become one of my favourite authors so if you haven´t read anything from her yet, what are you waiting for?

As always the story is catching, the characters amazingly developed and the writing sublime. And as it always happens after reading one of her books, I am proud of being a nerd in my own freakish way!

About Penny Reid: 
SEX! It all started with sex, between my parents. Personally I don’t like thinking about it, but whatever works for you is a-ok with me. No judgment. The sex happened in California and much of my life also occurred in that state until I moved from the land of nuts (almonds), wine, silicon… boobs, and heavy traffic to the southeast US. Like most writers I like to write, but let’s get back to sex. Eventually I married and gave birth to 2 small people-children (boy-6, girl-4 as of this writing).
By day I’m a biomedical researcher with focus on rare diseases. By night I’m a knitter, sewer, lino block carver, fabric printer, soap maker, and general crafter. By the wee hours of the morning or when I’m intoxicated I love to listen to the voices in my head and let them tell me stories. I hope you enjoy their stories.

Blog Tour: Heat by Penny Reid

HeatBlitz   Heat by Penny Reid Hypothesis #2 Publication Date: April 30, 2015 Genres: Contemporary, Humor, Romance
Tour: Heat by Penny Reid
Elements of Chemistry: HEAT is part 2 of a 3 part series (65k word novel) and ends in a cliffhanger.
**Blurb contains spoilers if you haven’t read Elements of Chemistry: ATTRACTION** Four days left. Private beach (…and boat). Not so invisible girl. And maybe less of a jerk-faced bully than originally thought. What’s the worst (or the best) that could happen? Kaitlyn is finding life outside of the science cabinet of obscurity to be quite illuminating …and so are her pants. When things heat up between Kaitlyn Parker and Martin—previously known as the jerk-faced bully—Sandeke, she places her trust in the one person she never thought capable of earning it, let alone keeping it safe. Fortunately or unfortunately for Kaitlyn, where she gives her trust she can’t help but also give her heart. But how will the world beyond the sanctuary of their newfound connection react to their relationship? Soon senators, chinless billionaires, and elements beyond Martin and Kaitlyn’s control want to weigh in on the young couple’s future. Navigating the chaotic inferno of new love might be more than Kaitlyn bargained for, and much, much more than her trust—or her heart—can handle.

My Review: 

I have loved every book I´ve read from Penny, seriously! Her writing is beyond amazing. It is witty, smart, fresh, funny and unique. I get so hooked on her books that I am even breaking my record of reading books when it has to do with her books.

I love every minute of the experience of reading Elements of Chemistry. I was hooked and amazed on Attraction but I felt completely and utterly in love with Heat. Martin stole my heart with his confessions and Kaitlyn made me want to be her.

I truly enjoyed the whole back and secret story we get to discover in Heat, it is so unexpected and fascinating! It brings action and mystery to an already perfect story. Eventhough the story happens so fast in time terms, it felt as if the story was happening for real! I love when I get that feeling of realism, it makes me want to do wonderful things!

I can´t really wait for Capture to be released but at the same time I don´t want to because I don´t want Kaitlyn and Martin´s story to end.
Beware if you are an emotional person, you are going to C-R-Y, big, fat, ugly tears. I consider myseld kind of an emotionally detached person, but lord this book got me right on the feels!

And yes, prepare for a yet another wicked cliffhanger!

BlogTour: Attraction Review by Penny Reid



Title: Attraction (Hypothesis #1) 
Author: Penny Reid 
Synopsis: One week. Private beach. Invisible girl. Jerk-faced bully. What’s the worst that could happen? Kaitlyn Parker has no problem being the invisible girl, which is why she finds herself hiding in various cabinets and closets all over her college campus. Despite her best efforts, she can’t escape the notice of Martin Sandeke—bad boy, jerkface bully, and the universe’s hottest, wealthiest, and most unobtainable bachelor—who also happens to be Kaitlyn’s chemistry lab partner. Kaitlyn might be the only girl who isn’t interested in exploiting his stunning rower’s build, chiseled features, and family's billionaire fortune. Kaitlyn wants Martin for his brain, specifically to tabulate findings of trace elements in surface water. When Kaitlyn saves Martin from a nefarious plot, Martin uses the opportunity to push Kaitlyn out of her comfort zone: spring break, one week, house parties, bathing suits, and suntan lotion. Can she overcome her aversion to being noticed? Will he be able grow beyond his self-centered nature? Or, despite their obvious chemistry, will Martin be the one to drive Kaitlyn into the science cabinet of obscurity for good?

My Review: 
I loved this book so much that since I finished it yesterday I´ve been recommending it like a crazy person to all my friends! Attraction is undoubtedly one of the best books I´ve ever had the pleasure to read and I am certain that it will make it to my favourite reads from 2015, it is soooo good!!!

I am utterly fascinated by Penny Reid, there I said it. Her written is beyond amazing, it is witty, smart, fresh, funny and unique. I was so hooked up into the story that I didn´t realize it was 6 am when I finished the book, so I am working with 3 hours of sleep but it was so worth it! I literally couldn´t put it down. Though take my advice before reading Attraction if you are not a patient person, get Heat at the same time cause if you don´t you are going to die over the cliffhanger. I swear that it left me speechless, fortunately for me 2 days ago I received the Heat ARC so it calmed my mini-heart attack xD

The story may seem cliché at first. Nerd girl and sporty guy stories have been written a lot lately but she turned this story 360 degrees over. Kaitlyn the main female character is so independent, strong, smart and down-to-earth that you can avoid loving her. She has become one of my favourite female characters. She is hilarious, I loved being in her mind, her conversations with Martin cracked me up every time. I loved reading about a female characters that doesn´t accept shit from the male character that establishes ground rules and doesn´t fall all over him, she makes him really work for it.

Martin is so different from the male characters I am used to read. I loved him so much, it is hard to get him sometimes cause I think he doesn´t even get himself xD He gave me the feels, it is such a rush to read a book where the man is the one pursuing the girl because he has fallen for her before she notices. 

Attraction is the second book I´ve read from Penny Reid and I already love her. Last summer I met her at the RARE Event in Edinburgh and she was really nice to me, if I had known she was such a talented writer or read any of her books prior meeting her I would have fangirled so hard!!! It´s a pity she won´t be attending this week signing, I was really excited about meeting her again.

So concluding my praise for this book all I have left to said is that you must go and buy a copy, because you will love every minute of it and the afterwards and the in between. Really, go and give it a chance!
