Reviews: "Andrew Holiday is sure to give readers of all ages their own fangirl meets Harry Styles moment. One won’t be able to resist rooting for this old-soul, popstar in the flesh. Cecily is no exception. The music Andrew creates puts words to feelings she struggles to express, as if he has a bird’s eye view to her soul. Fans of Young Adult books will love reading about what most teenage girls only get to dream about. The author weaves the phases of Cecily’s teenage life using a delightful tangle of adolescent drama, humor, and insecurity all the way through to dreams come true. The young adults and characters are unique and memorable creating a world that readers can enjoy living in and reminiscing in. Readers may also appreciate a small peek into the workings of the entertainment industry along with Cecily and her friends. The love triangle tugs heartstrings in both directions until a happy ever after for now leaves readers satisfied and excited to see what comes next in The Cecily Taylor Series."-InD'tale Magazine "Can Dreams Come True? by Krysten Lindsay Hager is a teenage novel that covers all the issues faced by today's adolescents. I loved the way the author has created such a strong and unique character in Cecily. She shows a mature attitude which is rare in this genre of novel. Her feelings of low self-esteem and the development of the relationship with Andrew are real and heart-warming. There are some hysterically funny moments in the story too. The other characters are also believable, and the way young girls interact and speak to each other is very realistic. The plot moves forward constantly with conflict perfectly placed to keep you engaged. The reality of how rumours and jealousy can cause damage to a person is effectively shown within the story. A wonderful and captivating teenage love story.”—Readers’ Favorite "This book was pleasantly entertaining and wonderfully charming. While I enjoyed the romance, I loved that Can Dreams Come True also managed to address the importance of staying true to yourself, doing what you love and pursuing your dreams."-Sincerely Karen Jo reviews "It's a great story of romance, and pursuing dreams, but also finding out who you truly are."- Amy's Bookshelf Reviews "Most teenage girls I know of develop a crush on a pop star or two. This book is perfect in bringing to fruition the imagination of millions. The book was really well done."-- Writing Pearls |

Reviews for Dating the It Guy
“Dating the It Guy is an entertaining story that is as absorbing as it is hilarious.”-- Readers' Favorite “There is so much to love about this book. Krysten Lindsay Hager knows how teens think and speak, and she understands why Emme would feel overwhelmed by everything about Brendon - his looks, his popularity, his feelings for her, his exes, his family.” --From Vox libris: the voice of books "There really are plenty of swoony moments in this book, so readers looking for a little contemporary romance will certainly not be disappointed... For Emme dating the “it guy” is a dream come true, but truly believing that he is superior to her opens her up to a lot of negative thoughts and emotions, and I felt like this book had a great underlying message about the importance of self love."--YA and Wine "Teens will especially relate as she tries different ways to cope before finally trusting herself... The author intertwines a poignant story of family bonds with the blush of first love and the difficulty of figuring out a place in an ever-changing world of expectations. This talented author is one to watch!" InD'tale magazine "This book is unexpectedly funny and delightful! Emme is our main character and I love her quirky, random brain. Her streams of thought and mental dialogue are hilarious!"--Amazon Review |
