The working relationship between Greta and Laura is starting to show small bouts of working together and you find out just what Greta holds against Laura and your heart breaks just a tiny bit. It gives you some insight into what makes her hurt and humanizes Greta, which was needed.

This series is getting good at this point…

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The story picks up where book one left off. The mystery surrounding the kidnapping of Trin has gotten more complex. Laura feels as if there’s more behind the scenes going on and just trying to help solve this mystery while being a source of strength for young Trin. It is even more complicated because Trin is the daughter of her high school friend Harry and she has some underlying feelings for him. For whatever reason Greta seems to be pushing against everything Laura thinks she discovers so it leaves you wondering if there’s some underlying jealousy or issue that Greta has or is she possibly involved? This story also has Laura’s mom in it and you see their relationship start to take a new turn while you are dealing with Laura’s secret involving Scott. Can’t wait to continue the series.

In Plain Sight: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 8In Plain Sight: A Logan McKenna Mystery Book 8 by Valerie Davisson

Logan Mcakenna enjoyed volunteering at the wildlife sanctuary. She especially loved working with the raptors. Life was falling onto a comfortable routine, and she was good with it. That all changes when one of the employees is found dead at the center. Logan can’t believe one of the raptors is responsible, the evidence just doesn’t add up for her. This is not the type of book I usually read, but I liked it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this young adult coming of age fantasy adventure. The author does an amazing job of mixing magic with everyday life and the teachings I got from this book were be careful what you wish for as its not always what you need.
The author does an amazing job of mixing the life of a teenager today with the mythology that exists around djinn.
I really love how at first Bex thinks the ring and Djinn are the answers to all his dreams but what he doesn’t realise is the damage that will be caused when the Demon decides to twist his wishes/dreams into something that puts everyone and everything he cares about in danger.

It is a gripping story that will have you turning the pages till the end to find out of Bex actually learns the lessons and can solve the crimes before its too late. With all roads leading back to his guilt is it possible for him to prove it wasn’t him but the influence of a djinn or will he suffer for the twisted wishes that the djinn believes he wanted?

Fatal Memory (Agent Red:Teagan Stone Series Book 1) by Ava S. King – Review by Kerry Carr

Agent Red: Fatal Memory (Teagan Stone, #1)Agent Red: Fatal Memory by Ava S. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Teagan Stone series and I can’t wait to read more. This book is full of so many twists and turns that at some parts its hard to keep up but it is well worth reading. This is definately a story that keeps the reader guessing and you won’t see the end happening. For a short story it is full of action and danger but for me personally i felt the end was a bit rushed, but I am looking forward to seeing what happens next.

Teagan used to be part of a company called The Firm. Their job was to work undercover to stop people who are a threat to Amercian and its people. When Teagan decides to retire she thinks her days as an agent are over and she settles into life with her family.
However that life is shattered when she is kidnapped by The Firm and because of her memory loss she can’t remember ever being an agent.

But here she is and in order to protect and keep her family safe she needs to find out what happened to her team member Leah and take down a drug lord.
But things aren’t what they seem. The people you think you can trust you can’t and when Teagan’s families lives are still in danger she has to decide who to trust and what to do to make sure they are protected.

Who can she trust? What choices does she need to make to guarantee her families safety? Can she remember how to even be a great agent?

Blood Sector (V-Clan #1)Blood Sector by Lexi C. Foss
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There are a lot of Shifter books out there, and this one is Excellent. The characters are so well written you feel like you know them intimately. Quinn is a strong female lead who is trying to solve the mystery of her parents’ death while protecting her people. Kieran is our male lead who is a strong alpha male who is simply too perfect. He is supportive and forgiving yet makes mistakes and assumptions and apologies. Too Perfect! (*sighs longingly)
The world is built and layered really well. There is an entire Omegaverse series that ties in to this book, but this one is a stand-alone. I haven’t read the other novels and didn’t feel lost at all. It was nice to get enough backstory about the world to know how it worked, but not so much that half the book bogged down in details that took away from the story. It was a really well executed balance.
I can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this one and have already pre-ordered the sequel!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

3.5 Stars

 

Agent Red: Fatal Memory is the first book in the Teagan Stone series by Ava S. King. This is the first book that I have read by this author, but as I love a great spy thriller, I was curious to see what I would find between the covers.
This proved to be an action-packed story with espionage, politics, agendas, drama, danger, mystery, suspense, deadly assassins, intrigue, secrets, lies, and more.
I did enjoy the story and am interested to see where the series goes from here. Being the first book in the series, I felt that there were a few ‘teething issues’-but the character/s, premise, and developments have left me wanting to join in for the rest of the series as I am sure there is a lot more in store for super spy, Teagan Stone.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Ava S. King!

Be careful for what you wish for, for you may get more than you thought.

From Brick & Darkness is a debut YA urban fantasy. For a debut book this is one author that you should keep your eye on. This engaging dark tale has a ring and something of djinn/genie mythology which makes for an interesting read. JL has created a mysterious mystical world that is a page turner. The world building is cleverly woven and well done as is his writing.

Journey along with Bax as he finds himself in a strange and dangerous world he doesn’t understand and a wish that was more than he bargained for.

YA fantasy lovers will enjoy this story.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am enjoying the Notebook Mysteries but just realised I missed the first book and have gone back and finally read it. This book is titled Notebook Mysteries ~ Emma and is where it all began.

This is a YA, historical cozy mystery tale where a 16-year-old spirited Emma wants more in life. She fancies herself a bit of an amateur sleuth and the adventure begins. She finds herself caught up in danger, crime, dark secrets, corrupt officials and mobsters.

Emma is a delightful and a fun read. It is not just a cozy mystery it is also a bit of a recipe book included throughout to delight the senses.

Notebook Mysteries is a for those who loves super sleuthing and who love a good mystery.

Dinosaur Friends are two cute action-adventure stories. A Present for the Volcano is one book and turn it over and discover Saving Conifer’s Eggs. Two books in one. I had a book like that when I was little and I loved it.

These picture books are wonderfully illustrated and beautifully colourful. They are fun, charming and original. These imaginative tales delight children aged 4 to 8. I read them to my 5-year-old and 3-year-old grandsons and they fell in love with the characters and the pictures.

These dinosaurs are best friends, but sometimes they don’t always see eye to eye but they are always there for each other.

What child doesn’t love dinosaurs and fun tales?

Reading this book with my 5-year-old son. My son enjoyed the pictures in the book and spoke about what type of dinosaurs they were. He said he enjoyed how the dinasour were talking about the volcano. Conifer and Spike talking about the volcano and talking about presents made my son think about the objects. This book deals with emotions such as fear and being scared as well as tackling friendship. My son said this was a good book about dinosaurs and a volcano.

Dinosaur Friends: 2 Books in 1: A Present for the Volcano and Saving Conifer’s Eggs by Lois Wickstrom is a cute, beautifully illustrated children’s story with dinosaurs, action, adventure, a little drama, and friendship- while also providing lessons in empathy, co-operation, patience, being helpful, and working through problems (just to name a few).
This book contains two stories- “A Present for the Volcano” and “Saving Conifer’s Eggs”. They are cute stories that follow Spike (an Ankylosaurus) and Conifer (a Tyrannosaurus), two dinosaur friends, on their adventures.
The bright and colourful illustrations brought the whole story to life.
Happy reading!

5 Stars

 

Destiny’s Daughter: It Was the Best of Times is the third book in the ‘Intimate and Unfiltered’ series by Lynda Filler. Wow, if I hadn’t already loved this author’s work- this book certainly would have sealed the deal. It has certainly given me even more appreciation and respect for her…
This memoir would not have been easy to write- but still filled with so much heart and soul. A raw, emotional, heartfelt, inspiring, intimate, honest, unfiltered, and entirely fascinating window into her life- made for an engrossing read that played with my emotions.
The courage, strength, vulnerability and authenticity shared in her words was poignant, and moved me in so many ways- and there was a lot of thoughts amongst Ms. Filler’s insights and musings that were things I didn’t even realise that I needed to ‘hear’ or be reminded of. A lot of the story moved me to tears- as I felt for her, and/or, her words touched me so, so deeply. I recommend having some tissues close at hand, just in case you need them.
A wonderful storyteller with a beautiful soul and an adventurous heart- I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next.
Highly recommended reading!

Thank you, Lynda Filler!

Ashes (Modern-Day Fairy Tale, #1)Ashes by M.K. Harkins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Great fairytale retelling of Cinderella! Very modern but with keeping the same concepts of the original Cinderella we all love and know. This modern fairytale is focused around four main characters, Ashley, Lauren, George and Harry. Ashley’s dad recently passed away and she is left in the care of her evil stepmother Veronica, and her two stepsisters, the M & M’s. Harry is a big-time pop star and has fallen into some small criminal trouble with his best friend George, this lands them in the same new school as Ashley and Lauren. Ashley has COMPLETELY blocked off any type of love or affection, that includes even friendships, that is until she meets the other new girl, Lauren. It is up to the fairy, Merilee, to save Ashley and help her find her true love as well as love for herself. There are a lot of twists in turns in this book, but it is such a great and easy read for a large range of ages. There is SLIGHT mention of drugs and attempted murder, but they do not go into any detail whatsoever. I absolutely ADORE that the main male characters, both Harry and George, have great character development and are not the typical prince charming where absolutely nothing is wrong with them, and they seem perfect. Every character in this book grows tremendously and I love how the author depicted their growth through their experiences. It definitely is a feel good, down to earth, but modern fairytale. I cannot wait to read the sequel “Red” which follows their life after high school graduation.

Chasing Hope Audiobook by Dana Wayne – Review by Robin Rankin

Chasing Hope

What a great story.  Max and Skylar fit together so perfectly from the beginning and having precious Maddie there certainly didn’t hurt things between them.

I understood a lot of what Skylar was going through as a single mother and her daughter being her first priority.   And she was just amazing even though she let her pride get in the way.

Max has the ghosts of his past and his time in the Corp., but he doesn’t allow them to control him most of the time.

The narrator John Tanner had a very soothing voice, almost like a parent reading to his child but also did a great job bringing each and every character to life.

I read these two Dinosaur Friends books, A Present for the Volcano and Saving Conifer’s Eggs, to my 6 year old son. He loved the pictures and guessing what would come next. He liked Saving Conifer’s Eggs more. He insisted on googling “ginko trees” after reading, to see if they were real. Thank you for adding in unknown trees, to help my little guy learn! The pictures are really cute and colorful.
We also had a discussion on the names of the dinosaurs. He knew Spike was the anklyo due to having spikes but wanted to know where Conifer came from. Then was mad because a carnivore shouldn’t be named after a plant- so there’s some 6 year old feedback lol
A Present for the Volcano was really cute. My son was sure the Lava would overflow, but was happy the friends were safe and were able to work together.

I wish I could give this book more than 5 stars! This is the first Deborah Garland book I have read, and I have to say I went and bought 3 others immediately. I also read this book twice!

The author has a knack for hot, steamy scenes that jump off the page. This book was by far my fave of the ones I have read because I love the idea of Noah – tattoos, piercings, abs… what more could you want? Callie is a great character too, I love her sassy commentary. Getting caught up in their world at a cabin in the winter is a perfect fantasy. All in all, the book gives you a little bit at a time, leaving you craving more!! The additional thriller aspect of the security firm and Noah’s haunted past gives the book even more substance.

I cannot wait for the next book in this series!!

I wanted to love it because the synopsis was very interesting but I just couldn’t. Maybe it was an off reading day but I just didn’t enjoy this one like I would.

Blood Sector is my first introduction to the V-Clan series. I loved this book! At first, I didn’t quite understand some of the terminology such as knot but it was easy to understand once Quinn was found by Kieran. I love the dynamic between them. I found the process of how their wolves came out intriguing, such as purring or seeing them in the eyes. The secret of why Quinn originally left kept me reading till the end. The book was a fast read. I can’t wait to read more of the V-Clan series books!

I’ve always loved books by this author and this one is no different. The attraction and passion between Quinn and Kieran is off the charts. Kieran is a strong alpha who’s been chasing his betrothed for a century. Finally catching her, he intends to never let her go. Although he can be full of himself and dominant, he is also tender and cherishes her. I absolutely loved him!! Quinn is a strong Omega princess, heir to her throne. She is smart but has many secrets. She propositioned Kieran to save her sector then ran knowing it was in safe hands. Her time on the run is up, Kieran found her. Can she get away or will he punish her for her disobedience? The book hooked me from the beginning and had me flying through the pages. It’s been awhile since I read a story about werewolves so I thoroughly enjoyed it.

For the last century she’s been in hiding, but with Alpha Prince Kieran O’Callaghan finally catches up to her she is taken back to Blood Sector to tame her. Kieran is determined to take what was promised him and to finally claim her as his.

Quinn definitely wasn’t expecting what was waiting back home for her…but will she accept it?

This was probably one of my fastest reads this year, and I had definitely planned on taking my time. Blood Sector was a delightful, steamy, and suspenseful read. I loved every minute of the book.

Its well written and captures your attention almost immediately. The characters are enjoyable with plenty of mystery and growth.

I thought I knew what to expect but there were plenty of twists to keep me guessing. I’m ready for the next book!

I love Lois Wickstrom books!! This is a special 2 books in 1.

In A Present for the Volcano, Conifer, a T-Rex and Spike, an ankylosaurus, are viewing the beautiful sight of nature but see a volcano that looks very unhappy. They decided to work together to make it a gift, which in turn, makes the volcano happy.

In Saving Conifer’s Eggs, Spike finds Conifer guarding her nest of eggs to let her know that there is a forest fire happening around them. They need to find a safe place to keep Conifer’s eggs so they work together in order to find that spot.

The illustrations in these books done by Nicolas Milano are very beautifully done! I love the stories too, how they use science to solve a problem.
