My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a standalone coming of age story. It’s the first book I’ve read by this author but it did not disappoint.

Pyper has all the answers. Just ask her. She is a very positive, happy girl. However, the prospect of prom does not make Pyper very happy. In fact, the girl with all the answers knows prom needs to be cancelled. Through the story, Pyper learns more about herself and starts to realize, maybe she doesn’t have all the answers after all. How does senior year turn out for Pyper and her friends? Find out!

This was a very well written story. The character growth and development was on point. Pyper is a relatable character. I’m sure any one of us could relate to Pyper at one point or another. So glad I gave this book a chance!

This is a great coming of age story where the characters allow you to relate to them but also wanna rip through the pages to help them. This story brings you into the lives of the characters and you’re right there with them feeling the same experiences from their POV. Great read!

This was an amazing and heartfelt read. Cori did an amazing job at having the characters develop and grow throughout the book.

This book follows Pyper. Pyper is a positive and go-lucky girl. She likes bright colors and helping people. There is only one thing that does not bring a smile to Pyper’s face and that is Prom. Prom is the bane of her existence and she could care less about the tradition of it.

Throughout this story, Pyper starts to learn new things about herself that she never realized before. Pyper is not a fan of being vulnerable around people her age and rarely her family. Luckily she has some friends in her corner that love and support her.

What happens when the girl with all the answers does not know what to do? Can the past blind someone to what is right in front of them? Will her negativity and discontent with prom affect her relationships?

Read this book to find out what happens with Pyper and her friends. Being a high school senior is not all it’s cracked up to be.

I love this book so much! It was super cute and I loved the HS aspect of it and dealing with prom and all the stress. Brings back memories lol. All the characters were great and I could picture who each person would look like and sound like and it was just a great movie playing in my head while reading this. I was lost in it and next thing I know…I finished the book. I do wish that there was more with landen and pypers relationship…I was sad it ended the way it did because I NEEDED more lol. But I still loved this read!

This book gave me all the nostalgia of young love! It’s well written and enjoyable even though I’m not in high school any longer. It’s a great read for both older adults and young adults. It’s sweet and entertaining and a nice break from adulthood.

This is an adorable YA romance book. It follows the main character Pyper over senior year with Prom as the big focus of her year. She wants it canceled, but her efforts backfire. For Pyper having all the answers is normal, but this moment of not having them is breaking her. With the help of friends and family she works through this dilemma called Prom and learning that it is okay to not have the answers. It was a fast paced read that kept me turning the pages. It was easily a one day read. A great story with likable characters in a familiar highschool setting that makes connecting to them easy. I would highly recommend picking up this YA romance! I cannot wait to pick up another book by this author.

Having read “ Ways to improve Bailey” I was looking forward to another fun filled read and I was NOT disappointed 😉

So Pyper is a little ray of sunshine , she’s bright , preppy , peppy but she also has a wee flaw , she wants to cancel prom ….she also realises she doesn’t always have the answers and she doesn’t know it all #surprise😉

Pyper is the girl you want to befriend and she herself has a beautiful and supportive tribe 🥰

I loved Pyper and friends and this is something I’d love to share with my teen daughters ❣️📚

Sage Advice is a wonderfully written YA/ Clean Romance that will have you turning the pages till the end. This author never ceases to amaze me with her creative yet relatable and fully developed characters along with a storyline that flows. This story teaches us a very important message that it’s ok to not know everything and you don’t need to have all the answers. There’s the right amount of humor mixed with a few emotional moments but I couldn’t stop till I finished. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next with Sage. Will she learn it’s ok to not know all the answers I look forward to reading more from this Author.

Sage advice was such a fun book. It took me right back to high school and it’s drama. I loved the way everything unfolded, but really wished prom night went a little longer. I want to see what happens with all of Pyper’s friends- Leah, Will, Sam and Brooklyn. So, if you plan to write a sequel, you’ve got an audience for it! Landen and Pyper were well written and very likeable characters. I liked the light hearted feeling of the book, with some funny parts and serious parts. I like how the story of Jason unraveled and the resolution with Travis. This book could be enjoyed by teen and up and I look forward to more from the author. I really like her style.

This is my first time reading Cori Cooper so I was pleasantly surprised by Sage Advice. This coming-of-age, clean romance finds Pyper in her Senior year of high school and struggling to find the balance in being able to offer great advice but being unable to take any advice to heart. Cori Cooper did an amazing job capturing the “essence” of high school, from the drama and angst to the peer pressure and young love. I felt like I was walking the halls of high school all over again. The characters she created are so believable, likeable, and realistically flawed. This fast-paced read was very wholesome and relaxing and I can’t wait to read more by Cori Cooper!

I really enjoy reading Cori Cooper. She does an excellent job of telling the story and pulling you in. In this story it did take me a bit longer to get into but that is most likely because I’m a thirty year old woman and this story is based more on high school age kids. There is a lot at that age going on and I believe many young adults will love this story and Cori Cooper’s writing skills.

High school, some peoples dream and others worst nightmare. Pyper is an amazing, outgoing, and popular girl who gives the best advice, but doesn’t seem to take any of the advice she preaches. Prom needs to be canceled, just so Pyper doesn’t have to deal with unresolved issues, but leads to love filling the air, and a high school romance story ending it all.

Pyper is well-liked, and would do anything to help. She is happy to live her life, as a daughter, sister, friend, and confidante. Her latest idea: cancel the prom. When she tries to get the committee to see her side, the result is putting her in charge of bringing the prom to fruition.
When Pyper who thinks she has all the answers suddenly begins to question her own advice, she concedes that she may have to give in to rolling with the punches.
Sage Advice is a fast-paced, well-written and fun! I enjoyed Pyper’s story from beginning to end, and I highly recommend this book.

This author is someone who really knows how to write an engaging and relatable YA story and this book is one of my favourites of hers so far. I thought Pyper was entertaining but reflective of the age she was portraying. It was so easy to imagine her in a real setting, going through the same emotions and journey.
This book was a great story and is one that will appeal to most. It was easy to read and I found myself getting swept up in the story. This book was thoroughly enjoyable to read and I would definitely recommend it.

This lovely story takes place on the eve of senior year for Pyper and her friends, and things must be perfect! Pyper is part of the student council and has a mission that isn’t too favorable for most to contemplate, but she has her reasons! I find this journey for Pyper and her friends to be an adorable adventure with a fun cast of characters and life lessons behind it. Pyper gives off some Elle Woods vibes, especially with her love of bright and colorful things, but supporting friendships and good nature sense of self. My favorite character is Brooklynn! She is a version of me in the story and I loved revisiting it through her. She can be a bit naive when it comes to certain things, but she is always there to assist a friend in need when it counts. The writing is well done and easy to enjoy, however, I find the numerous amount of life quotes a tad overwhelming otherwise no true misgivings. It is nostalgia and I found myself reminiscing about my high school experiences. This is why I think it would definitely make a great Hallmark movie! I urge you to read this novel if you are looking for a cozy night in with some coffee, wine, or whatever your pleasure!!

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. I enjoy her writing skills and her attention to details to make her stories pop. They are fun, creative stories that are hard to put down. This book is no different. This is a well written story about Pyper who thinks she has all the answers except when it comes to prom. She tries to cancel it but will she learn that sometimes it’s okay not to know all the answers? I enjoyed her character and what she brought to the story. She is a fun character that has a lot of growth throughout the story. She is my favorite of the story and keeps the story engaging. I enjoyed how connectable all the characters are. They bring the story to life and make it hard to put down. This is a fast paced story that is easy to read and entertaining at the same time. I enjoyed reading this story and I highly recommend it.

Pyper is a senior with all of the answers. She gives all of the advice but isn’t much to taking her own advice. Prom is something that she dreads with every fiber her being. She doesn’t have very good memories of it, so when she comes up with the idea to get prom canceled, she brings the idea to the student council which is a bunch of jocks. They ignore her idea and now she has to come up with another plan, but will she able to keep her friendships and face her mistakes that she’s been avoiding all year long? This Author does a very good job at showing the emotions and thoughts of your typical teenager and the problems that come their way.

I’m a fan of Cori Cooper and I do believe this is my favorite read by her so far!

Pyper is a senior in high school. She’s beautiful and all the boys clamor to be near her. She’s taken, however, by Jason. When an opportunity comes up to present an idea to the student council that can save the senior class some money, Pyper jumps to share her wonderful idea to the bunch of jocks that servce on the council.

The jocks don’t like her proposal. As a matter of fact, she’s not even sure they heard her. No one voted in support of cancelling prom. Now, Pyper is trying to cover up for past mistakes and help others to not make the same mistakes she has.

Can she keep her personal feelings out of all of this though? Can she still manage to keep her friendships going through all of this?

I loved this book! It’s nice to read a fun, clean romance novel that isn’t overly sappy involving young adults. So refreshing! There are moments of humor but mostly, it’s just a fun story to follow along!

Teenage romance
This is a clean YA romance that centres around Pyper, a high school student with a lot of advice to give. She quickly learns that maybe she needs to be willing to take advice too. Navigating these teenage years can be brutal and the author presents a very realistic picture. This will appeal to a wide YA audience. Recommend.

4 Stars

 

Sage Advice by Cori Cooper is a YA story with humour, emotion, teen angst & drama, self-discovery, friendship, family, clean romance, first love, growing up, message/lessons, learning that you don’t need to ‘know everything’, and it’s ok to not have all the answers.
As I have mentioned before, Ms. Cooper is a talented storyteller who has the ability to create such wonderful characters and really interesting plots that have a deeper meaning, which to me, is a true testament to her writing skills. She never fails to draw me into her world, keeping me engrossed the whole way through.
As expected, this is a sweet story that mixed some poignant ‘lessons’ and issues with some fun and a little emotion.
Another enjoyable read from her. Looking forward to more from Ms. Cooper!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Cori Cooper!

An enjoyable and sweet YA romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Teenager Pyper Lewis is used to having all the answers to all the questions, as she’s busy giving out advice. She’s looking forward to having an amazing senior year and making it great for her friends. Her only concern is the prom, as unfortunately she has bad memories and so even tries to cancel it but her plan backfires. Eventually Pyper has to face the prom and decide whether to trust that Landen will not hurt her like she was once before. With the help and support of her family and friends Pyper discovers that she does not always need to have all the answers. Pyper is so likeable and relatable that I could not help but feel engaged with her. I was immersed in the storyline, which was very realistic in regards to the teenage issues and emotions raised. I liked how Pyper developed throughout the story and learnt about herself, which made her an inspirational main character for YA readers.

Sage Advice is a clean romance story about a young woman who needs to work on some issues that have haunted her and has stopped her from moving forward. It is a story of a young woman who slowly discovers herself with the help of family and friends.
Being a YA romance story, it has sensitive and emotional girls and “I am man hear me roar” boys all just trying to cope with growing up and the pressures of high school and life from that age. It is filled with the usual traits with angst, drama, pain, self-doubt, peer pressure, bullies and best of all first love. Thank God I am not that age anymore.
Pyper is a giving person but listening to and taking that advice on board herself is another thing. We journey along with her as she puts on a front but internally struggles. It was good to watch her grow and come into herself.
This fun tale will have you laughing out loud at times and wanting to wrap your arms around them at others.
YAs are going to love this tale.

Sage Advice is a YA Romance that centers around the character of a teenage girl named Pyper. Pyper is a bubbly, fun-loving, kind, and compassionate teenager who wants to help others and she fiercely protects those she loves. As the girl who writes the advice column for her high school newspaper, Pyper generally has all the answers. She is good at helping others solve their problems but when it comes to her own life, she seems unable to find the answers to her own problems. Pyper is worried about her upcoming prom and when she gets asked by Landen to go with him, she is reluctant. Pyper has been hurt before and now sees all teenage boys as immature. Landen wants to prove that he is sincere and not like the other boys, but Pyper is reluctant to let her guard down. Will Landen be able to break through the barriers Pyper has put up? This was a beautifully written, and realistic, look at first love and romance. The characters were relatable, lovable, and I found myself rooting for Pyper to give Landen a chance to show her he was not going to break her heart. A great read!

Sage Advice by Cori Cooper – Review by Jessie Hopkins

Pyper is great at giving everyone advice, and they all look to her to do so. She’s caring and compassionate and not wanting anyone to feel the way she did. Last year’s prom changed her entire outlook on many things – boys, high school and her future.
Being a great big sister and a good friend is her main focus now. So much so that she listens to everyone else and focuses on helping them instead of coming to terms with her own.
She is wanting everything to be different this year, but that may mean that she needs to let others in.

This author writes such wonderful teen books about growing up. Pyper is a young woman working her through school. She has her plans and often times, they just don’t work the way she wants. Isn’t that all we wanted back then? All our issues at the time to work out. I found this story to be relatable. I really enjoy these stories as the author makes her stories feel like she could have taken them from your childhood. This is a fun story.

This is a sweet teenage romance. It is about a young teenage girl who is great at giving advice. She runs the advice column for her school paper, she is always on hand with helpful advice for her friends and family. She helps anyone who needs it. The problem is she is so busy helping other people that she doesn’t help herself.
Pyper is a really sweet girl, she is a proper girly girl who spends her time organising things and helping those she cares about.
Like most teenagers she’s has a lot to deal with as well as trying to figure out who she is.
When Pyper is hurt she tars all guys her age the same and builds a Fort around herself to protect her from any further harm.
However the dreaded Prom is approaching and there is one guy who really wants to take her.

Landen wants to show Pyper that he isn’t like the person that hurt her but will she give him the chance or are the walls she’s built around herself too high.
This is a sweet story of friendships, Romance, and finding out who you are and what you want out of life. I really enjoyed this story.

Ways to Improve Bailey by Cori Cooper – Review by Heidi Sturgess

Ways to Improve BaileyWays to Improve Bailey by Cori Cooper
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brace yourself for a laugh out loud kind of read and these are characters that become friends ❣️📚

Bailey and Dayton are brother and sister . Bailey has flaws and Dayton has taken it upon himself to “ fix” her flaws which I get to a degree but at the same time I just want to clip him around the ear because live should be unconditional. Bailey works at a frozen yoghurt / ice cream parlor called Froyo , her work friend Marnie has a “ gift” she believes she can match up couples by their choice of frozen yogurt, ice cream and toppings and while I think she may have a magic touch she really had me in stitches at times and she’s a really good friend to Bailey 🫶🏼

Then there’s our local odd ball Tanner who I should say is a good reminder of do not judge a book by its cover , he’s actually a real sweetheart and quite easy on the eye 😉with a heart of gold and one of my favourites ❣️

When the parlour is in trouble they all stand together to save it , which says alot about our little Froyo family and it’s visitors ❣️

I loved that words like “ nincompoop “ are used 🤣I enjoyed copious amounts of frozen delights and their adds ons 🥰 and Bailey I love you just the way you are ! You are uniquely you flaws and all x

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ways to Improve Bailey is best described as a YA RomCom. Bailey has been given a list of how she can improve by her older brother. Also, she has been set up on a date with Tanner, the weirdest guy she probably knows. Will Bailey see how she can grow as a person?
This is an enjoyable story of a monumental time when you are trying to figure out who you are meant to be. Bailey is a fun character because she is relatable and realistic. She has her faults but is not a horrible person. Her brother reminds me of being the oldest sibling. I have my faults, but I easily see the faults of my younger siblings. This is a great read for a teen because it is relatable, fun, and has a good lesson. I enjoy this author’s books and look forward to reading more by her soon.
