My rating: 5 of 5 stars

WOW! Just wow.  This was an amazing book.  I will state that some sexual triggers in this book. This book is based on our main female character who is strong and stubborn and brave as can be.  She stays strong even in the face of brutal fear.  She is at the MC to meet her dad after her mother dies.  She wants to know him.  The surprise of being told he had a child years ago is a shock.  The story takes several twists and turns and your emotions will be all over the place.  This author has captured my love for MC stories and the worlds she has built even between chapters.  I can’t wait to read the next one.

This is a children’s story that I enjoyed. It is about Priscida an alley cat who learns and teaches us about ourselves and what we can find within ourselves. It is an inspiring story that has graphics that bring the story to life. The characters are fun, creative and unique and I really liked them. A great interactive story that would be great for any child. I highly recommend this book.

Luke (Default Distraction #4)Luke by A.S. Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A.S Robert’s does a good job of bringing you into this Rockstar romance novel. This is book 4 in the series but I think you could read this as a stand alone as well. The author really draws you in this story and you can’t help but really feel for Luke and his past. I honestly had to have a box of tissues next to me for some chapters. Roberts does an amazing job paying attention to details in the story and really makes Nikki and Luke come to life!

Mom, Is There a Santa Claus?Mom, Is There a Santa Claus? by Susan J. Berger
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a sweet book that I would recommended for children who get to the age where they start questioning if santa is real or not. This time of life can be quite upsetting for children as something they care about for years can get taken away.
However this story is about a young boys realisation that even if Santa is exactly the person he was led to believe, that he still exists as long as people believe in him. Lucas then sets out to help his parents keep the spirit of santa alive for his younger brother.
It’s a very heartwarming story and a great idea of a way to approach that question some parents dread of is Santa real?

This is a beautifully written children’s story all about a cat named Priscida. It’s her story about going from being a stray to finding a family that loves herself allows her to be herself and find her greatness.
This is a lovely story and teaches children that they can be great just by loving and by being loved by the people around them. That greatness isn’t about money or possessions but about the love that we share and it’s something we can share with everyone.

I enjoyed this suspenseful story. This is a well written story that is fast paced, engaging and full of action. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the beginning by the author’s use of details. Her characters are connectable and brought the story to life on each page. The twists and turns had me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next. Neve is just returning to work after being stabbed only to get more than she wanted. When a patient turns up in a coma, she and the doctor, Cornelius are left in a mystery they are determined to solve. Now they are marked with a target on their backs, will they survive? They are such great strong characters that kept me turning pages. I really enjoyed this book. I highly recommend this book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the story of one woman’s view of the world from her point of view with not just hers but with those who have a disability. We get an inside look of what it means to be blind and appreciate how her world is affected and how to adapt. We can close our eyes and try to imagine but we truly have no idea. It is unique, insightful and interesting and an eye opener as you read the poetry and words and try to imagine. It is also an invitation to children and adults to see the world of others with activities. It shows that even in darkness there is colour and beauty.

This is an absolutely amazing book. I thought the whole thing were beautifully written and such an inspiring journey. It is not at all what I would normally read but I was completely captivated by this author and her writing. It felt like such an insightful novel and I felt like you connected with the author directly, which isn’t something that usually happens.
This is is first book that I have read by this author but I was really taken with her style of writing. I thought the book was well thought out and a pleasure to read.

Love's Reverie (The Stardust Duet, #2)Love’s Reverie by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this as soon as I finished the previous book in this Duet and loved it as much as the first. It’s really a direct continuation of the first story, and there’s slightly more angst where the first had more mystery. There’s plenty of sweetness, chemistry, and emotion, just like in the first novel. I really think the author captures the romance between the two main characters Kat and Phillip without getting too sappy, and we get to see more of Phillip’s character arc this time. This novel really does not disappoint!

I adore the movie Somewhere in Time and I also love this author, so when I saw the blurb of this novel I knew I had to read it. And it lived up to my expectations. The story is romantic and the characters are full of chemistry, and although it’s cliche, it’s still suspenseful and very sweet. The author really takes the reader on an emotional rollercoaster, and there are lots of details that made this a wonderful read. I read the next in the series straight after!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book has contemporary romance and the fake dating trope. The way this is amazingly written.

Clothes, cars, property, and women are all within Caspian’s reach until the grandeur he’s become accustomed to threatens to crumble around him if he fails to fulfill his uncle’s last desire.
He has discovered real love and to be Committed to staying married for a year.

Only by completing those two crucial duties would he be able to claim his fortune. What he needs is someone who will agree to a convenient arrangement that will free him from the emotional bonds of marriage.

She didn’t believe things could get much worse now that she was evicted and destitute. Then they did it. Paisley will soon be saddled with the financial obligation of her mother’s care, with her mother in a coma and her insurance benefits running out. She has no clue how she’ll support both of them until a childhood acquaintance approaches her with an unusual proposition. She wants Her mother’s care to be taken care of and a penthouse in Manhattan as well as the sum of one million dollars.

She just needs to pretend to be blissfully married for a year, but a lot may happen in that time.

I loved this story. I loved every page of it. Every chapter was exciting. This is my first book from this author and I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

This was such a well put together children’s book. I loved how it really showed that everyone can have struggles no matter how hard they try, but you should not put yourself down over it! It was up lifting and sweet all at the same time. For children that feel they are not meeting the criteria that sometimes the world puts on them, it can make them feel rather down. This story was a great reminder about how we are all special in our own unique way! Also it was great story about self love, which was very admirable!

Sweet and very touching story. I think any child, no matter what they may face, this is something they need to read and get that life lesson from! It was a very motivational and powerful book, a must read!

This book is sweet, the story is a great lesson and the art is super cute. I really liked all the puns and this one line stuck out to me the most, “Priscida, you are great. Go be great today” I feel that is a very nice thing for anyone to say to themselves before starting their day. It is nice to get that extra motivation even if it comes from yourself. The lesson here is be great, love more and persevere. Great read for parents and children.

The darkness has taken over and there is deception and lies everywhere. This is the fifth book in this series and each one gets a little better than the one before. There is something for everyone to love in this dark paranormal fairy-tale-esque story, with magic and witches, danger and deceit, suspense and drama, demonic sorceress and revenge.
Not everyone is as they seem and each and every one of them have their own agenda of lies to get what they want but they each get far more than they bargained for when the dark vs the light. No wonder her heart has blackened and her soul has turned towards the dark. Beware what you create.

I loved this one. New fantasy series always catch my attention. This one caught me with the title, Diabolical Sword. Does that not just sound like some fun action to you? The story did not let me down. From the beginning descriptions of getting the message to her descriptions of life between normals and fae life, the story gives such a unique view to life (even being fictional). I’m naturally a curious person and this book makes me want to jump down rabbit holes wanting to learn more. The action among the main character and the supporting characters was very well-written. It flowed together nicely. No glitches or uncomfortable hiccups. Again, the descriptions made it really easy to picture in your head. A very unique and orginal story. I’m looking forward to reading more by this author. Highly recommend.

They don’t even find out until the end the surprise. I loved the book and will be getting a copy for each of my grandchildren. The message it teaches is one that everyone needs to know and remember. Great book that I highly recommend everyone read.

This story had a slow start. There was a moment where I wondered if I it was going to be this slow throughout the book but it picked up and stayed there.

There are so many things to enjoy about this book. A strong female lead. For me personally I enjoyed that she is a minority. I enjoyed the community of magic that the fae built. It was awesome learning about the different magic people, and the humans who knew of magic.

This book was filled with action, drama, mystery, and tragedy. Plus every Magical creature you could think of from dragons to witches to pixies. It’s very diverse and everyone can find something to enjoy.

I’d recommend this book to everyone that loves urban fantasies or fantasies in general. We can all use a bit of magic in our lives.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Upon discovering another book by the author of Weep, Woman, Weep that talked about magic, I knew this was the book for me. As someone who has been looking into fitting more magical living into my life, there were so many insights I gained by reading this book, even if my first impression about what the book was going to be about was wrong. I especially loved her talking about her own cultural experience as a mestiza from the American Southwest, as I’ve always enjoyed learning about different cultural practices, and I definitely wish she would have talked about it a bit more.

I think the chapter that struck a cord with me the most was when she was talking about taking the time to make your routine a ritual. I especially enjoyed her going into the differences between the two, as I believe that it will help in things outside of practicing magic, which was one of the things she talks a lot about during the book. Overall, I learned a lot of really helpful things that I plan to start incorporating into my life in the future. I also look forward to seeing what the next book by her I fall in love with!

Strega – Magic: The Spirit Never Dies by Lynne Russell. This book was so good. It’s not a book you can read lightly you really have to think about it and pay attention but that made it much more real to me. Its the story of the women in the Ciofani family who are from Italy and they use magic. I really enjoyed Annie and she was such a strong, independent woman who mad great strides in her life thru this book. Annie came out stronger than ever due to things she had to undergo. The writing in this book made me feel like I was in Italy and made me almost believe I had magical powers! The story has a lot of action and you will be amazed at how fast you turn the pages. Do yourself a favor and read this amazing novel about Italian women and their magical powers!

Simply, WOW.
This book should be read in classrooms around the world.
The author of this fabulous book is blind. They have went into detail, for the reader, about experiences and answered questions that are most commonly asked.
They also supplied the alphabet in braille and ASL.
This part is great. I have been taking ASL evening classes to help learn to talk with one of my neighbors. It has been a trial, but I keep at it.
Just like the author, they keep going. They don’t let being blind be the end. They adapt and use other senses to carry on. And we as a world need to do better to help everyone. Not just people that don’t have disabilities.
This story/activity/poem book is perfect for all ages. Everyone should read this.

When Elgin Huddleston left Willowbrook fifteen years ago he never had any intention of returning. When one of his DEA missions went wrong Hud has no choice but to go “home.” He should have gone to see his grandmother before she passed away but he could not bear to see the disappointment in her eyes.
Mary Beth Winters needed a fresh new start after her heart was broken. So she packs up her life, locks up her Domme/sub toys, and starts over in Willowbrook right across the street from Hud’s childhood home. When Mary Beth thinks life is finally settling down, bad boy Elgin returns to town. The two get off on the wrong foot but could Mary Beth help Elgin let go of the demons that trouble him? Mary Beth has a hunch that she will need to open that chest that she locked up five years ago when she moved into Willowbrook.
I love how the author took the time to build the relationship between Elgin and Mary Beth. I also love the adult content of this book. This is a must-read if you love streamy page-turners.

I enjoyed their journey together and how they navigated the unknown in finding out the limits of their new reality. I felt their fear and uncertainty of the possibility of living without each other. The storyline is not far-fetched but realistic in the love that Kat and Philip share. A tale as old as time, Love’s Reverie should be your next read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love’s Reverie is the 2nd book in the Stardust Duet. It should be read after Love’s Refrain, to understand what is going on. The book continues the love story of Kat and Phillip, a love so strong, it spread across time. The story bounces back and forth between 1947 and present day, as the two use a magical mirror to time travel. This story had a lot of ups and downs, and at one point I was nearly heartbroken for the couple. I hoped things would have turned out better for them, but I was happy with the story and its happily ever after. I love the part James played in their story, and thought he fit perfectly into each era. Kat and Phillip are both old fashioned, and I loved that about them. There were a couple adult scenes, so mature audiences only. That aside, I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good old fashioned romance story with a happy ending.
