A Death on Fools Lane by Jane Suen My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the fourth book in the Eve Sawyer Mystery series, a short easy read, but not lacking by any means. This is an enjoyable mystery, set around the holidays, containing twists, suspense and the interactive feeling trying to solve it […]
Born to Die by Winter Austin My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the second book in the McIntire County series and links back to the first. For this reason, I would recommend reading the first book prior to this one. In this book we follow Cassey and Boyce working on a case involving […]
Vixen: by D.M. Earl My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the fourth book in the Devil’s Handmaiden’s MC series and this time the focus is on Vixen and Ironside. Whilst this can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the previous books first for more background information on the club and […]
Chasing Cheer by Heather Schneider My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Emerald Hollow series, and it’s off to a great start! This was a fun and festive read which will be great to read closer to Christmas (this is one I can see myself re-reading regularly). The writing […]
The Truth About Myths by Giovanna Siniscalchi My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the third in the Winemakers series, this time following the story of Princess Isabel and Viscount Henrique. You don’t necessarily need to read this series to understand the individual stories, but I would certainly recommend reading all of them. I […]
The True Purpose of Vines by Giovanna Siniscalchi My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Winemakers series. It’s a historical romance which is one of my favourite genres and I was not disappointed. I enjoyed the way the author wrote this; it was descriptive enough to transport you to […]
What We Never Say: Empowering Contemporary Women’s Fiction by Paulette Stout My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Bold Journeys series continuing Rebecca and Kyle’s story. This again covers a topic which should be more openly spoken about, though different from the first – male survivors of abuse. As […]
The Calamities of Camden Callahan by Brittany Tucker My rating: 4 of 5 stars This was a well-written fantasy which I couldn’t put down. I enjoyed the adventures the characters were led down, there was danger, secrecy and suspense which kept me engaged and guessing throughout. The characters were well-crafted, I particularly liked how their […]
Shadow’s Fall by Natalie Johanson My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the third book in the Shadowstalker series. I initially started this book without reading the previous two but went back to read the previous books before finishing it. I would recommend that you read the first two books prior to starting this […]
Rocketship Made of Stars: Naming Constellations by Lois Wickstrom My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is another great book for kids by the author, the second in the I am an Alien series. What I love is how it makes learning about constellations fun and easy for young children, keeping them engaged in the […]
Notebook Mysteries ~ A Party to Remember by Kimberly Mullins My rating: 4 of 5 stars This short novella is part of the Notebook Mysteries series and makes for a quick and easy read. This can be read as a standalone, but to truly appreciate the background and characters I recommend reading the rest of […]
Atonement by Winter Austin My rating: 4 of 5 stars This romantic thriller is the first book in the McIntire County series, and I was hooked from the start. It’s a well-written novel that you can’t help but try to solve the mystery alongside the characters and the well-placed twists throw you for a loop […]
Russian and Royally Complicated by Gwyn McNamee My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Crowned Hearts series and focuses on Lev and Daphnes’s story. This is another great read from this duo, and this is fast becoming a favourite series of mine. The characters relate back to the first […]
Murder Creek by Jane Suen My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Eve Sawyer Mystery series. Short but enjoyable, this is an easy read. The writing was descriptive and easy to follow, flowing easily. The characters were interesting, plenty of suspects and suspicious interactions, occasionally leading to red herrings […]
The Secrets of Arkaim by B.E. Padgett My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Reeds of West Hills series. We again follow Frank and Jon, this time following their progress and the Zodiac Games. The emotions in this book felt deeper and the plot more defined. The story was […]
The Guardian of Whispers by B.E. Padgett My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Reeds of West Hills series. This falls into the 9-12 year old fantasy category but as an adult I still found reading this book an enjoyable experience. The story focuses on twins Jon and Frank, […]
Xenia Navarro and the Magic Ants by Lois Wickstrom My rating: 5 of 5 stars Another great book by the authors aimed at kids. This book hits a little harder than other books I’ve read by the author, looking at the topic of deportation. The issues/process is explained well in a way for children and […]
Deadly Vengeance by Anise Storm My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Vaccaro Empire Collection series. A dark Mafia romance book focusing on Valenzia and Luca. The story has its fair share of danger, secrecy and violence as is expected with Mafia stories. I enjoyed the way this was […]
Love & Stilettos by Evelyn Lindell My rating: 4 of 5 stars I wasn’t expecting to enjoy it as much as I did, I was worried there would be too much drama for me but I’m glad I gave it a chance! This is an engaging read, following the story of Mia, Mitch and Lacey. […]
The Guardsman by Cat Treadgold My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Olympic Peninsula series. I would recommend reading the first book prior to this one to get a deeper background on the characters and their connections to each other. Liam is a character I took an interest in […]
Dead Keen by Anise Eden My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Things Unseen series and once again, the blurb was enough for me to know I’d love this book. I love that we saw more of Con’s background, his family and homeland in this book. Though even in […]
Dead Sound by Anise Eden My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Things Unseen series, a psychological thriller which caught my attention from the first sentence of the blurb. The links between a hospital and government fascinated me by how it all came together. At times you are left […]
I Am An Outer Space Alien by Lois Wickstrom My rating: 5 of 5 stars Another fun yet informative book for kids by this author. Represented by an alien visitor, this time the author teaches the importance of listening and embracing those who are different without fear/judgement. An important lesson for everyone. The author has […]
Royally Complicated by Gwyn McNamee My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Crowned Hearts series but can be read as a stand-alone. This book focuses on (Prince) Fyn and Bridget. I enjoyed the secret identity element as the secret came out and Bridget’s reaction. It’s a fun read with […]
Love, Only Better by Paulette Stout My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the first book in the Bold Journeys series and wow. The description of this book caught my attention, it is something that is made to feel so shameful but really shouldn’t and I loved that this book shed light on the […]
Back to the 80’s by S.E. Reichert My rating: 5 of 5 stars I loved the idea of this book as soon as I saw it and knew I had to read it. I was born in the 90s so unfortunately missed out on the 80s and experiencing all the media (music etc.) I love […]
Rogue Wolf by Lilliana Rose My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the third book in the Protector Wolf Shifter series, and I cannot recommend reading the first two books highly enough. This book follows on from the previous two, so I urge you to read those two before starting this one. The plot […]
Marked Wolf by Lilliana Rose My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Protector Wolf Shifter series, and I highly recommend that you read the first book as this one follows on from that one. I loved the first book, but this one is even better. I loved the plot […]
Conversations with the Tarot: Bewitching Meditations on Reading the Cards by Maria DeBlassie My rating: 5 of 5 stars I’ve always had an interest in Tarot and when I first got into readings, I had heard so many different things, I wish I had a book like this to read first. I found the author’s […]
Mesmerised by Toya Richardson My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is the second book in the Hybrid Lovers series but can be read as a standalone. This book focuses on Antoine and Donna’s story. Donna’s been through a lot, and I really felt for her. She’s very strong despite everything that’s happened; she’s loving, […]
