Magic-Borne (The Crown of Stones #3)Magic-Borne by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While I am so sad to see this series coming to an end, Magic-Borne is a dazzling read! This has been my favorite fantasy series in such a long time. C.L. Schneider has an incredible way of wrapping you in their world and making you feel at one with each character. She is one of the authors that I follow very closely so I don’t miss anything! Ian has been through the ringer, and this is the continuation of his fight. The amount of action, magic, romance, and endurance that you can feel which means you’ll be right there alongside the characters the whole way. Be sure to start from the beginning of the series because this is a very detailed story with amazing world building and in-depth characters. I highly recommend this entire series because it is just mind-blowingly epic!

Magic-Scars (The Crown of Stones #2)Magic-Scars by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the trilogy so if you haven’t read the first, I would strongly advise you to as the events in this book follow on from the first.

The story starts a few years after the last ended, and I’m thrilled to say we see the return of some great characters for more action (including my favourite Jarryd).
The time between the two books has given the characters more backstory and has affected each in their own way. This adds more depth to them and reveals more about who they are and what we may expect from them as the book progresses.
I will say that I enjoyed seeing even more of Troy in this book, and what he could have been if his circumstances had been different. His character develops further as the story progresses and understanding him better has given me a deeper appreciation for his behaviours (though I still wanted to scream at him more times than I can count).

My emotions were hit hard in this book, and I have a feeling this will continue into the last book as well. The author does a great job of manipulating my feelings and revealing information when it will have a greater impact which is a great skill that I admire.

I thoroughly enjoyed this one, more so than the first which is unusual for me, so I have high hopes for the final instalment of the trilogy!

Obedience: Ties That Bind Book One by Liza Snow Review by Heidi Woodring

/0 Comments/in /by

Obedience by Liza snow is book one in the Ties that Bind series, and let me tell you, I don’t even know if I have the words for this incredible read!!!!! Not knowing what I was reading when I started, I was hooked from chapter one and just wanted to disappear into the world of Cassandra and Chandler. I loved that this story was long and kept you wanting more and more. The steaminess was also on point in each scene and the chemistry with Cassandra and Chandler could make the pages flame up!!!!
Cassandra is riddled with tragedy but she kept her focus on becoming what she always wanted to be, aerialist. And chandler is one of the greatest of all times! Together they are magic! I can not wait to read more of this series and never have I ever wanted to get a audio book as I do now!! Well done and I want more and more and more of this series!!!

This is the third book in the series by Tricia Copeland. I recommend reading the first two books first.

If you enjoy reading about fae and strong female main characters, then absolutely pick up this series.

Magic-Price (The Crown of Stones #1)Magic-Price by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in this fantasy trilogy.
I was drawn to the book by the cover and then upon reading the blurb, decided that this was the book for me. It seemed like something I’d really enjoy, and I wasn’t wrong.
The story itself, although similar in many ways to other fantasy novels I’ve read, it has so many unique elements as well that it doesn’t feel like the same rehashed story. For example, the way magic works is interesting, there’s more to it than just using magic has a heavy price.
The book is written well, from the fight scenes to the more intimate ones, it flows well and there’s never a lull. For a book that’s so long it can hold your attention throughout.
The characters were well written, each having distinct personalities and agendas.
While I usually loved flawed characters, it took me a while to warm to Ian Troy. I enjoy the fact that he’s not perfect and can understand why he is the way he is (his attitude) there were moments I got very frustrated with his actions, and it tested my love for him.
I thoroughly enjoyed the story behind his issues with magic and his anti-hero typing, he is certainly an interesting main character.
Jarryd on the other hand had my heart almost instantly – how can you not love the dependable Jarryd?!

Another aspect of the book I really enjoyed was there didn’t appear to be a ‘side’ that was 100% good. The two opposing sides at war both have their own agendas and it didn’t seem to be a straight forward good vs. evil which it normally is. This made the politics and world building seem more real to me.

Oh man I was in heaven finding yet another new author. As again I am reading out of order but I was not disappointed or out of sorts. I really enjoyed the world that this author has created and the characters are really good as well. The world is not your run of the mill typical sci-fi one and I was glad of that. I found that the chemistry between the characters was unique and as it built got really explosive. I really look forward to reading more from this author and this series in the future. I just could not put this book down. The book had a well balanced adventure and drama mixed in with romance. It definitely is one of my favorite genres.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love, love, love Via’s work. Via is known for writing steamy dark mafia romances and I have love each and every one of them. I jumped to grab a copy when I saw this new book was out. Consigliere’s Revenge is the third gripping book in the Sicilian Gods series. Make sure you read them in order or you will be missing out on all this dark and delectable goodness. Via does dark and dangerous so well that you are sad when the final page draws near.
In the dark of the crime world these ruthless, dangerous and powerful men do not play around when their backs are up you can be sure that there will be retribution, retaliation and sweat, sweat revenge.
It is a deliciously dark, enemies to lover’s mafia romance. It is gritty, raw and brutal, savage and sinful, passionate and bloody, intense and violent. But once you are in their hearts there is nothing they will stop at to keep you safe. With heartache, action, twists and turns, secrets, lies, danger, scars, mistrust, enemies, crime lords and so much more there is something for everyone and to keep the pages turning and become lost in this extraordinary world.
There are no spoilers here because you have to devour this tale and take it all in on your own.
As usual I can’t wait for more!

This is the second book in a great sci-fi series and a great follow up to the first. I would highly recommend reading this series in order so you get a full appreciation of the overall story and chatacters. This book is just as good as the first and the characters were just as interesting and engaging. I loved the premise of this story. It was easy to become invested in what was happening and I was rooting for the chatacters the whole way through. This is an author that I am becoming more familiar with and I always enjoy the writing style she uses. Her books as well written, original and a pleasure to read. I would highly recommend them.

Filled with so much emotion, suspense, drama, lies, family, secrets, and mystery I was captivated from the beginning. There was so much in this book, that kept me wanting more. The characters of the book are so well written it makes you wonder if you know really them, and makes you feel like your right there in the story of them. I have to say I did not rad her first book but didn’t feel lost in this story, which is good because I could follow it and understand everything.

Magic-Borne (The Crown of Stones #3)Magic-Borne by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Magic Borne is Book Three in The Crown of Stone Series. This instalment in the series concludes the story of Ian Troy. After the resistance was lost Ian was forced into hiding where he must find a way to save his people from the evil clutches of Jem Reth, who has made himself emperor. Ian suffers under the weight of what magic has done to him. Although it causes pleasure for him it also comes with great pain as it is slowly turning him into more of a beast than a man.

Ian and his people have been subjected to slavery and endured suffering under the rule of tyrannical leaders. The fate of Ian’s people lay on his shoulders and in order to free them from the realm he needs to destroy The Crown of Stones. The outcome needs to be successful in order to save them which is a heavy burden to bear. Will he have the courage and strength to save himself and his people from the clutches of evil?

If you have not read the first two books in this series, I highly recommend that you do. Each story builds upon the preceding book. This series has captivated me from the beginning with its storyline and kept me riveted to the end. The characters are amazing and facing their own unique challenges in a world full of tyrannical leaders, slavery, and abuse. They crave freedom and may pay the ultimate price to achieve it. Ian is a character that you both love and hate at the same time. He makes some terrible decisions but has good intentions, so you feel conflicted. Ian is struggling with his own inner demons and conflicts as he fights the urge to use magic. He is constantly fighting the beast within that he is slowly becoming each time he uses magic. This takes us on an emotional rollercoaster ride along with Ian as he tries to navigate who he is becoming. Overall, an amazing series full of magic, action, suspense, drama, intrigue, friendships, tyrannical leaders, and the battle of good versus evil.

To Be a Fae Legend (Realm Chronicles Book 3) by Tricia Copeland
4 Stars

The saga continues. After Titania ended the locusts in the last book, she was hoping for some relaxation and family time but the evil still lurks out there. Her mother has prophesied that three will come, and they came. Each is worse than the last. On top of fighting evil, she must choose between one of her suiters. Will she even survive to be able to choose? Being a monarch is not easy but she will always do what is right for her kingdom even if it doesn’t coincide with her heart.

This is part three in this series. I recommend that you read them in order. Although only seventeen, Titania is smart as a whip and thinks outside the box. I like this about her. Unfortunately most Fae will condemn her for it along with being young and female. Most of the time she must resort to secrets. I like this series and enjoyed this book although I found it a little long, it dragged at times. I thought this was the last book in the series and then it ended with sort of a cliffhanger. I was a little frustrated because now I have to wait ( trying to be patient) for the next one to come out.

Magic-Scars (The Crown of Stones, #2)Magic-Scars by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Magic Scars is Book Two in The Crown of Stone Series. It continues the story of Ian Troy, a Shinree, who has now been captured by his enemy King Draken of Langor and sent to prison. While imprisoned he was drugged so that he was unable to use his magic. Ian has lost not only his memories because of the drugs but has also lost his will after being tortured. He has no fight left and is a shell of his former self.

When Ian is rescued by an unlikely ally, he must fight to regain his memories and strength. As his body slowly purges itself of the drug, he comes to realize that the world he left is not the same. Those he left behind has been subjected to horrors at the hands of King Draken. A rebellion is underway, and Ian must find and repair The Crown of Stones so that its magic can be used. Ian is the only one who can save them which places immense responsibility on his shoulders. His addiction to magic and connection to The Crown of Stones lead him to search for answers. In his search, Ian uncovers some ancient secrets that have implications for not only him but also his entire race.

Another great book in this series that was hard to put down. The writing and attention to detail are so vivid that it feels as though you are there with the characters. Ian is someone that is very complex and although has a dark past you cannot help but feel bad for him. You want to see things work out for him in a positive way. Ian is in a struggle to overcome who he was in the past versus who he is now. The pain, sorrow, conflict, and guilt over past actions are a challenge for him. Another great book full of action, suspense, drama, intrigue, and magic. Now onto Book Three!

Magic-Price (The Crown of Stones, #1)Magic-Price by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Magic Price is Book One in The Crown of Stone Series. The book starts off fast paced and full of action, suspense, murder, and mayhem. We are introduced to Ian Troy who is a Shinree, a reviled group of individuals who have been shunned and bred as slaves. Their use of magic is scorned and therefore suppressed by the use of drugs. Ian has been forced to serve with the Rellan army and fight their ongoing war against the Langorians.

When Ian stumbles onto The Crown of Stones buried in a crevice on the battlefield, he uses it powers to end the war. In doing so, Ian causes more harm than good and leaves a path of destruction in his wake. This leads him to place himself in self imposed exile as he relives those moments over and over again. Years later Ian still lives with the regrets from the choices he made but when ghosts of his past surface with new threats Ian is faced with the difficult decision of using magic again. Will the use of magic help or cause more devastation?

This book was not at all what I expected it to be. From the first page the story was fraught with danger, violence, murder, mayhem, bloodshed, action, suspense, and of course magic. I expected the use of magic to have a positive outcome when used by Ian. I was quite a surprise to see that the use of magic actually had very negative and damaging consequences. The characters, storyline, and plot were well written and detailed which brought the story to life. I was so intrigued by the story that I immediately moved onto Book Two in the series so I could follow Ian’s journey and see what happened next.

Love this twist on Little Red Riding Hood. I always appreciate how Wickstrom is able to weave learning and storytelling together into one. This is the tale of Little Red and how she is able to thwart the wolf who eats Granny (don’t worry…Granny survives). Little Red uses scientific methods her Granny has taught her to prove that the wolf isn’t Granny and then she’s able to use the wolf’s own nefarious ways against him to get her Granny back. The illustrations are, as always, beautiful.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The author, Stephenie Peterson, has captured the behaviorisms, attitudes, and angst of middle school students. The main character, Silas, struggles with a bully, but due to friendships and his family, turns his life around. This book would be a great conversation starter for anyone with kids entering middle school.

Being an educator myself, I did find some of the teachers’ behaviors to be almost as poor as the worst students they were in charge of, and not the adult role models the student body needed. I enjoyed the inclusion of modern events, such as the pandemic, and aware of disabilities, such as Alzheimer’s, that were seamlessly integrated within the story.

So honestly, I probably won’t & I’ll probably read them all over again in a while lol As ever, I am thoroughly impressed by C.L. Schneider & I’ll 100% read anything else they write.

What an incredible book! Entirely fantastic, truly. Hardcore Witcher vibes, but still unique. I couldn’t put this down! & when I had to, I was craving to jump right back into this artfully crafted world. The different perspectives of the enslavement of the Shinree are portrayed honestly & fittingly, without being graphic or overbearing. Where there is ever favor for it, there’s push against it right alongside. Explanations & reasonings & the complicated history of all the different cultures help a LOT, too.
Ian is a bit of an antihero in the best way & his character development is astounding, Malaq is a fierce champion of good, Jarryd is a cute lil cinnamon roll, Sienn is powerful & mysterious & written so well, & Neela is an enigma who deserves so much better than what she’s getting in this book. There is a bit of VAW I don’t love, but honestly it’s almost inescapable, unfortunately. At least it all comes from the known & obvious villains. I’m also not sure how I feel yet about the Shinree having an ‘addiction’ to magic, especially when they’re born with their abilities. We’ll see where it goes! I’m dying to get to the 2nd book & I’m sooo happy I don’t have to wait a year to do it lol C.L. Schneider is a phenomenally talented writer & weaves a story so deeply captivating you never want it to end.

Ian Troy is at his lowest low. The entire realm is falling apart and he’s the only one who can do anything about it. Or can he?

This book features elements of time travel and hallucinations. I find that difficult to process when reading (or even in watching something). I struggled with keeping up with aspects of the story for this reason.

This is a series that definitely needs to be read in order as there is too much information carried over from previous books in this series. Fantasy adventure readers will love this series and hope for more!

This is the 3rd book in the Realms Chronicles. I highly recommend you read the books in order so that you get the complete story and character progression. Through the 3 books we have watched Titania grow and mature in the the amazing Queen she is now.
The author’s world building is great and you really feel like you are physically in that world and it’s such a magical place.
This is a story about good vs evil and when an old prophecy points to Titania being the person meant to rid the Fae world of the evil that is there. But what will be the cost of Titania fulfilling this prophecy?
This is a fast paced story of magic, challenges and a race against time as Titania tries to beat the evil before it can triumph. As well as this she is also protecting her people and helping the witches, it is a lot of pressure on one person.
Add to this the need everyone is putting upon her to find a suitor, but does she really need one? Or does she even want one?

This is one story that is fast paced and will keep the reader hooked. If you love stories about magic, and a young female who overcomes challenges then this is definately a read for you.

It can be read as a standalone but I highly suggest reading the previous books in this series to help your enjoyment of this author. The characters are strong, steamy and supportive of each other. They pull you into their world and keep you coming back for more. They have great growth and their chemistry is off the charts. This is a fast paced story that has a little bit of suspense added to the romance. I really enjoyed this story and found it easy to read. I highly recommend this book and this author. A must read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Messenger, the sequel in the Star-Crossed Celestials Duet, follows Messenger Cyrus after his love Watcher Jace was exiled from their community. Heartbroken, Cyrus starts searching for Jace, but his search proves to be dangerous to him when dark forces intercept Cyrus. Hiding away, Jace hears of the events and thinks that Cyrus is dead. Jace decides to return to the community to find that Cyrus is a live and that there are plans to change the community, worse than ever before. Now, Cyrus and Jace must decide whether they should save each other or save the community. Which one will they choose? Find out in Messenger.
The sequel greatly compliments the first in the series. The characters are still loveable and relatable with relatable feelings. The story’s evolution keeps the reader on the edge of their seat and mystery after mystery keeps the pages turning. The love between Cyrus and Jace is almost palpable through the pages. AL. Morrow does an amazing job of describing the world in a way that the reader feels as though they are there with the characters.
If you are looking for a suspenseful romance with a fantasy element, look no further. Messenger will keep you hooked until the very end. Make sure to pick up a copy of Watcher, the first book in the series, for a more enjoyable experience with Messenger. Just as a warning, there is some content that may be sensitive to some readers. Such content is described in the Author’s Note. Overall, I love this duet.

A. L. Morrow has written a brilliant tale of Romeo and Juliet, a story of star-crossed lovers but in a celestial setting. This book kept me on a roller coaster of emotions, from sadness at a loss to joy for the lovers being reunited, but then distraught for everything they had yet to experience. I want to go back and read book 1 so that I can put together the pieces of their back story. This was an amazing read and I highly recommend it if you are a fan of a happily ever after story. What amazing characters Jace and Cyrus are, along with all of the other characters that we come across along this journey.
