Flowers of Evil by N. L. Holmes

Flowers of Evil (Hani's Daughter Mysteries Book 1)Flowers of Evil by N.L. Holmes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed Flowers of Evil by N. L. Holmes. Egyptian times have always fascinated me and I absolutely love the world that Holmes created! Bringing ancient times to life, painting vivid scenes and characters but also relatable. you can feel the injustice and unfairness of how Neferet and Bener-ib are treated because of their gender.
Of course, with rich worlds and deep characters comes a lot of lengthy paragraphs of descriptions, which can be harder for me to fall into. But I had no issues with this one, as it captured my interest and imagination completely. Really looking forward to the next one!

Diabolical Sword (The Charm Collector Book 1) by Melissa Erin Jackson – Review by Dahnielle Hibbert

Diabolical SwordDiabolical Sword by Melissa Erin Jackson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Daughter of a bounty hunter and a charm collector, Harlow is an amazingly strong character. The author really did a stand out job of adding all the details you could possibly need to this story to flesh out every character, even the character of the sword itself. This original story line is action packed and wouldn’t let me go even after I had read the last page! I look forward to what I am sure will be more harrowing adventures in the next chapter with Harlow and the Sword! If you are looking for an original, fun, mystical, magical adventure with beloved characters who are strong, witty and charming, look no further as this book has it all!

Journeys Through SpaceTime (Journeys Through Book 1) by James Talisman – Review by Dahnielle Hibbert

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A must read! I am normally not a fan of sci-fi fantasy novels, but Journeys Through SpaceTime takes you into a multiverse that really brings you to a place of wanting every complex drop of knowledge you can wring from the story. The first little bit can be confusing (I actually read it twice) but is full of very important details that you need to really be cognizant of space time dimensions and the silky threads that bind it together. If you are reading the book and feel like giving up I urge you to keep reading. James Talisman really brings all these seemingly unrelated events to fruition. I thoroughly enjoyed the complexity of the inter dimensional threads that combined the characters.
He takes you to places in such detail that you can actually see, feel and smell what he is describing. I absolutely love the details in this book. To me there is nothing better than an author who can create a picture so clear in your mind you can swear you have been there and James does exactly that!
I also find the parallels between our world and the universes James creates particularly fascinating. Believe me this book is a hidden gem and I cannot wait for the next installment!
