When we last were with these characters, Sebastian has given Abriella the potion of life (turning her Fae) after bonding with her and gaining the Unseelie crown. As this second book picks up Abrielle is on the run; from Sebastian, from Finn, from basically everything that she knows. I get it, she was lied to, […]
I’m sharing this because it was a great podcast talking to the author of the July Bookclub pick at Barnes and Noble; Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin.
I will admit, I knew about the Grim Gate series and had it on a list of books to check out. So when the author offered a chance to review it, I jumped on it and loved it. If you’ve read the author’s Thorn Hill series, you’ll recognize some places and a few […]
I’ll start by saying this book may have triggers for certain readers. If cults and rape aren’t your thing, this probably won’t be the book for you. The blurb for this book intrigued me. I wanted to see what happened with these cult survivors after their world imploded. But really, this was more about Avery […]
I spent a lot of this book wondering what I was reading. Nightmares coming alive in the forest? What is this craziness? Winnie Wednesday is desperate to get back what she lost four years ago when her family was outcast. Her in? Complete in the hunter trials. The odds are against her, yet Winnie suddenly […]
Let’s get this out of the way right from the beginning. This book will end with a cliffhanger…and boy is it a doozy of one. Good thing, we don’t have to wait to terribly long to get the next book (which I’ve already pre-ordered and scheduled to release in November). Adara is promised to the […]
I think I was attracted to this book because of the cover. A retelling of Greek mythology further enticed me. I don’t generally read ghost stories (mainly because nothing compares to the Charley Davidson series) but this was a good story. Anora and Shy were likable characters and I found myself rooting for the two […]
I don’t know what it is about this Varsity Dad’s series, but I devour them when they come out. In this next entry in the series, senior tight-end Ben discovers he has a toddler and enlists his sister’s friend to help him. Ben, high-strung and trying to deal with that along with his role on […]
Man…this one had such potential. It had hints of SJM, Victoria Aveyar and JLA, but those hints weren’t enough to make this a story I want to continue reading. One of the things I enjoy most about fantasy series is world-building. These things aren’t real so we need the author to help us, the reader, […]
I’ve been on a serious fantasy kick lately, so I grabbed a book that a fellow book blogger highly recommended to change things up. Unfortunately, June First should not have been the book I picked up. The story focuses on the relationship between Brant and June. Brant was six when he moved in with his best […]
Kase’s curse killed me but I knew Malin and team would figure out how to break it and get Kase back. Malin’s team solidified behind her, including House Strom. I loved that. She always thought it was just Hagan who loved her but she discovered just how wrong she was. I can’t wait until the […]
Wow…what a ride. It took me a minute to acclimate myself to what had happened in the last book but once I was situated, I was reinvested in what Romy and Zander were doing next. Fleeing the fae capital of Cirilea with a price on their heads, Romy and Zander (along with the growing band […]
This was a Once Upon a Book Club selection from a few months ago that I finally picked up. I have to say, this was the perfect beach/pool weekend read. Nathan and Katrina were a successfully writing duo who had a major issue: communication. It seemed these two were able to complete each other’s thoughts […]
I often go into historical romance droughts, going months before I pick another one up. Lorraine Heath’s book always makes me wonder why I put them aside for other sub-genres. I loved the premise of this book. A ducal heir who’s lost it all because of his treasonous father and the home office spy whose […]
I ran across a post on Facebook where a reader was asking about a book where two brothers were separated at birth, one raised rich and the other in an MC. I was intrigued enough that I skipped to Amazon to find the book once the title/author was uncovered. After reading this, I wish I […]
