The Glow in Loretta's Garden (Loretta's Insects)The Glow in Loretta’s Garden by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love reading about all of Loretta’s adventures with my little one, that includes this one 🥰 I have a whole bunch of fireflies where we live and I can’t wait til they start to come out. We love running around trying to catch them. And after reading this I learned a new way to draw them in, that I can’t wait to use lol. It was a quick read but very interesting and informative. As always I love these little tidbits at the end of the books. This one gave me some facts I didn’t know and I’m glad to know them now. I know these are for manly for little ones (which mine loves them) but I love them also and can’t wait for more!!🥰

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

England: Cultured, Classic, and Charming: A Guide to Hidden England is a Travel guide to hidden gems and treasures for tourists. This is my first time reading work from this author. I often like to look at different tourist guilds to plan for trips that I hope to one day take. So seeing this I had to give it a try. I long to travel through Europe starting at England. When I was reading this, I found the author had a lot of good tidbits and information to give that I found helpful. I look forward to using it one day lmao hopefully soon! I especially loved to part on the budgeting and local deals. I love saving money when I can. I mean who doesn’t 😀.I would love to see what other work this author has. Like the Druid’s Brooch Series the author has created, it looks super interesting and that’s just from looking at the covers.

The Archcrusade: Tome One: The Archspawn - Pilgrimage & PropheciesThe Archcrusade: Tome One: The Archspawn – Pilgrimage & Prophecies by K.M. Hogenson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Archcrusade: Tome One is the first book in the Archcrusade Series by this author K. M. Hogenson. This is the first time that I’ve had the pleasure of picking up work produced by this author.
The cover was intriguing and makes you really wanna read it just to see what lies within. Even more so after reading the synopsis of the book. I was glad to give in to my curiosity and read it. I was not disappointed 😀 it was a longer than normal read, taking about 3 days to finish with breaks of course. Although i really didn’t want to stop reading lol. It’s read from multiple POVs, which I enjoyed greatly. This high-fantasy was jam packed with magic, adventure, mythical characters,creatures, and action. With in depth detail characters and a well planned out world. I can’t wait to see what else the author has in store for us! I highly recommend reading this

No Rest for the Wicked (Life is Hell #1)No Rest for the Wicked by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

No Rest for the Wicked is the first book of the Life is Hell Series. I am so happy to have found this author Naomi Valkyrie. I first had read her House Valdis Series( if you haven’t read it I highly suggest you read it. It’s really good!). This story is a fast- paced read with MMF a trope. I made quick work of this. That’s how good it was 😀. After killing cheating husbands for about 200 years, Delilah takes a much needed break in a small town, Or so she thought lmao cause what she thought was a small town turned out to be filled with paranormal beings . I loved Delilah. She was a kickbutt , smart, strong main female character. I can not wait to read the next four books. I really enjoy reading books published by this author. I can’t wait to read more. I highly recommend reading this and the others 🥰
Also I love to cover its super cute!!!!!!

This book is amazing!
Logan and Jinx are the perfect couple who have worked through many ups and downs, but love always prevails!
What turned out to be a misunderstanding led to years apart for the couple, but in the end, it turns out perfect. Fast, easy, and great read.

The Hidden Present (Invisible Magic Wand)The Hidden Present by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I swear Lois Wickstrom is like my new favorite, go to author when me and my little ones are looking for a new and exciting book to read. Her imagination knows no bounds. It is truly always a pleasure to read her work and this story was no different. Just like her other characters, it’s fun to see the adventures Caspian gets into on his unbirthday. This year he was sad when he didn’t find the box in the usual spot but what he did find was way better. I’m not gonna lie, I super duper wish that the Inquisitive indicator was real 😂 I definitely need one. I can’t wait to pick up more amazing work from this author.

The Missing Red Envelopes by Yobe Qiu – Review by Rita White

/0 Comments/in /by

This is a great book for kids ages 7 to 12. I had my 12 year old granddaughter read this to me, and just hearing her read this book about the different culture was great. She really enjoyed the book also. The illustrations were phenomenal, and the writing was great.
In this book, we learn about the Lunar New Year and two Asian American sisters going throughout this special day. It’s tradition to visit family and friends and receive red envelopes containing money and chocolates. The red envelopes are misplaced, so they retrace their steps to find them. Great story, and I absolutely love that the big sister doesn’t get mad and is very patient with the little sister. It’s such a cute little book.

No Rest for the Wicked (Life is Hell Series) by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Rita White

/0 Comments/in /by

This is the first book of the Life is Hell Series.  What a ride! This book is a short, fast-paced book that has a bunch of characters that you learn a lot about in a short amount of time.  The author takes each character and goes in depth so you get a good feel for each of them.  My hope is that in the other 4 books, she will expand on each character.
Delilah is a demon trying to go on vacation to rest and see what a semi normal life would be like.  She picks a small little town and rents a cabin by the lake.  There is a nosey sheriff, a diner and other things you would find in a small town, but it also has demons, demon hunters, witches, and other creatures that you will just have to read to find out about. Oh, and the cover is wicked good! Do yourself a favor and read this book!

/0 Comments/in /by

How exciting to start a new series and it to be this good! This is a new author to me, so i didn’t know what to expect, but the writing is fantastic and easy to follow. I loved everything about this book. It has spice, excitement, a theme park!!, single mom with two kids struggling to make it, handsome man (did I say handsome man??) money, great job, but crappy owners and LOVE. What more can you ask for? It’s such a good book, and I can’t wait to read the next one in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So I’m picking up this talented author for the first time. This is the sixth book of the Chase Care Series. Even though I started This series on the 6th, I don’t feel like I miss a lot from the previous books. It is totally understandable without reading the others . Now This storyline the author has created along with the well developed Characters and intriguing world, id have to say it is just as good if not better than our favorite primetime medical drama lol you know the one i’m talking about. It has danger, spiciness,action, and some heart pounding , breathe stealing suspense. R.L. Dunn really knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat. I highly Recommend reading this !🥰

It Comes From Within (House Valdis #2)It Comes From Within by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It Comes From Within is the second book of theHouse Valdis. I HIGHLY suggest you go check out the first book and also the prequel before reading this on, that way you have a full understanding of what’s happening and how Xenobia started out. This one takes place six months after the last book. This is also told from Multiple perspectives which is awesome so you know just how everyone’s feeling and thinking throughout the whole book. Gotta love that, so you are not left saying “i wonder what so and so was thinking right now”. But man i didn’t think this storyline couldn’t get any better than the last I was wrong lol. Naomi Valkyrie writing and world building is fanfreakingtastic. Like I swear this had me in a chokehold until the end.like i had a lot to do today but i kinda blew that off to finish reading this book 😂 oops. I really hope there will be more from this series, until then i will be going to check out some of her other books. 🥰

House Valdis Origins: Xenobia is the prequel to the House Valdis Series.

The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride)The Mating Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Well well well here we are again 🤣 you just know after reading the first two previous book of this Long Claw Pride Series, I just had to read this one. I was literally counting the days til I could pick this up. This series is like one of my new guilty pleasures lol I can’t get enough of this spectacular world Brooke May has built or her extraordinary characters. Speaking of which, this one follows Boone and Cricket and their wild and passionate ride of becoming fated mates, and then add in the extra drama from the humans. It’s a book you won’t be able to put down. Also It was really cool to see the author include second chance fated mates,I love when that happens. I can’t wait to see more this amazing author, and more from this series🥰

Outcast (Her Royal Harem: Ember Book 1)Outcast by Catherine Banks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book that I am reading by Catherine Banks, a new author to me . I really enjoyed reading this book. Usually I only like Harem or reversed Harem every once in a whole but this book had me devouring it page by page as fast as I could. I just had to see what happened next. Like the mystery and adventure really had me hang on to every word . What made me really interested in it was the Paranormal take to it. Mages, shifters, hybrids, curses, multiple mates, what more could you ask for. I’d say it is a fast-paced book with amazingly built characters and fantastic world building. This author did an amazing job. She definitely brings a unique touch to the Paranormal genre. I cannot wait til April for the next book to be released.

Even though this isn’t my first time reading stories by Lois Wickstrom, this is my first time reading any of the Nessie books. It’s a really intriguing and adventurous read.

We’re gonna have to go back to read the previous two books of the series. we look forward to reading more about Linda and Craig’s adventures and also look forward to reading more from this author🥰

Once again the artwork is fantastic, really eye catching 🥰 I do love the little adventure that Cray goes on lol and how he and Hay got to meet all those cool other animals. They not only became friends with them all but the other animals helped teach them a valuable lesson along the way. I also enjoyed the list the author included at the end . I will definitely be trying it out. I truly look forward to reading more stories by this author 🥰 if you haven’t read any books yet I 10/10 recommend 🥰
