The Brass Compass: A Novel by Ellen Butler

5 Stars

This is not my first read by this author, she is actually a favorite of mine even though I went back and forth on this one before I decided to give it a shot. I am not normally drawn to these type of stories but I am drawn to this author.

I did enjoy it although it still did not sell me on the genre itself, there’s no way to deny how well it was all written. This book was full of suspense and danger and constant action. Following Lily in this book had me feeling like I was fleeing with her and I was on the edge of my seat through most of it.

It had just enough romance mixed in and I highly recommend anyone that reads historical fiction especially around the WW2 time period go one click this book right now.

This author is a master storyteller and I can not wait to get my hands on anything else she writes.

OH MY HEART!!

This book tore at my heart and completely stressed me out because I wanted to climb through my kindle screen so many times. This made me realize that although you hear of this throughout your life you never really understand it maybe because you don’t want to or literally just don’t believe it can really happen.

This author who I already love took something so real and wrote it in such a beautiful way that yes there might be triggers but it was handled with such care.

Although this story tore my heart out and totally ticked me off at times I loved it and it was such a quick read. The character building was spot on and I fell hard for Shan..I mean who wouldn’t? But what I loved most was April and even though someone tried so hard to break her down, her strength brought her out on the other side and her story was inspirational and I loved it!

Yes, there are some soft triggers but I think if its gone into being fully aware of this it would be ok.

Loved it!!

Not my chosen genre but I love the idea about these books being a serial and am really looking forward to reading all 10 episodes. The cover drew me in and the beautiful writing kept me hooked.

A super quick read that felt like a full length novel with the amount of content, yet didn’t feel all crammed in. I really liked Wren as a main character and can not wait for the rest of her story and adventures. The fairytale retelling is awesome and this story is about strength, determination and sacrifice. It was completely Awesome.

Highly recommend

This is my second book by this author and I enjoyed every page, although somewhat predictable in a lot of ways it was still fun to read how this author put it all together.

Who doesn’t love reading about a hot fireman out to rescue the jilted blogger? I loved the chemistry between these two and I really liked the flow of the book, I read it in one sitting and was actually kind of sad when it was over. I loved the hospital scene I thought that was great and I so totally despised Georgia’s family, I literally wanted to climb into the book and smack them

All in all, I really enjoyed this story and will be looking for more from this author.

Oh My Gosh I loved this book!! I found myself reading so fast and trying to slow down to make it last longer. This is my first book by this author and I absolutely savored every word.

I love suspense novels, especially ones that move along and waste no time having me on the edge of my seat. I also love how its obvious its one person so you know it cant be that person and have it all figured out that it’s another person only to find out you are so so wrong. The way this author twisted this story this way then that way had my mind totally screwed up..Which was awesome and terrifying, and completely psychologically satisfying.

I sincerely felt like I was in this book, walking right alongside these characters watching this all play out and that ending…I just don’t know what to say..

I will be reading more from this author like as soon as I can and I hope that anyone that reads this review as vague as it is will run and one click this book because it is everything you ever wanted in a psychological thriller and much more.

Amazingly Awesome!

This is my first read by this author and I will say there were times I absolutely loved this book then it would move into parts that were just ok. The great parts overruled thank goodness.

I love a good vampire book, this one took me a bit to connect with, not sure what it was whether the characters or the actual story, but it picked up rather quickly and I loved the unique storyline. I definitely fell in love with the “be careful what you wish for” kind of idea and all of the vampires drew me in immediately, well almost all of them LOL

I will be interested in reading more from this series and did enjoy the flow of this story, I laughed out loud so many times and I love a book that can do that for me.

Awesome

This is my third book by this author and I really enjoyed this one as much as I did the first. There are many reasons I like the premise of these stories and one of them is the canines that play a large part of the storylines, Im a sucker for that and I was not disappointed in this one.

I also love the one night stand that happens in the past and then comes back later to play a part in their lives, those are some of my favorites and how this one came back into their lives was great. There were a couple twists in this story that totally caught me off guard and again something that makes a book great in my opinion. I read this in one sitting as I could not put it down once I got started.

Linc and Meredith had that spark that is undeniable and of course there are way too many complications to make that as easy as it should be. This one had me feeling all the feels and I was pulling for them the entire book. I was a bit worried towards the end and wanted to slap someone and would have if I couldve.

I highly recommend reading these books, you won’t be sorry and each one can be read as a stand alone

Loved it! I can’t wait for more from this author.

One of my favorite authors ever and as soon as I opened this I knew it was another that would be added to my favorite read again file.

Holy WOW did this start out with a bang, it’s not very often my heart starts racing a million miles a minute in just the first few pages and then end up shattered like I knew these people my whole life.

I don’t know why I felt so connected to Emma but something made me totally understand and feel for her immediately. I was afraid at one point that she was going to be the typical hard nut to crack recluse and was so very relieved that that was not the case. I absolutely loved Reese and although I had my doubts as well as Emma did as soon as I found out who a lot of his friends were I knew I had to be safe in trusting him.

This was a fast moving book with just enough of a twist to fit perfectly, and it had to be since it was so short and if I had any complaints it would only be that I would have loved so much more of this story, these people, the mountain. So I’m hoping that maybe there will be more to come somewhere down the line.

Read this, I’m not even kidding…It is awesome!!

I needed something different and I definitely got that by going totally out of my comfort zone with this book. This is my first read by this author and even though this is not a chosen everyday genre for me it filled the bill for what I was looking for and I’m kind of thinking I will be looking for whatever else he might have available.

It was the writing that had me hooked and once I got going and comfortable I had a hard time putting it down. It was easy for me to stay involved because I never got so out there confused like normal while reading this genre and I really appreciated that.

I actually felt like I was roaming through the tunnels, or the pipes with Dun, Tali, and Padj and was scared through most of this book as I’m extremely scared of the dark, which is why I think this book was the one I chose.

I’m actually looking forward to reading the next in this series and that kind of surprises me.

I highly recommend this book especially if your looking for something outside of your safe little box like I was.

I was pleasantly surprised by this story, I’ll be honest I was afraid it would be a predictable type of storyline but it was in no way at all predictable.

I really appreciated that it wasn’t a normal second chance romance where they meet again and all is well. There was so much going on in this book and it was impossible to put down once I got settled in. I loved Sarah in every way, she was a tough take no prisoners attorney and literally did what she had to do in this story while going up against an evil ex and falling in love with the two girls who were the reason for the custody battle.

This is my first time reading anything by this author and I can promise it will not be the last, I loved her style and the flow of this story, you never really knew what was going to happen until it happened. That’s my favorite type of book!

Definitely looking forward to more from this author and I highly recommend this book.

Completely Awesome

5++++++ Stars

So I’ve read almost all of the Satan’s Devils books, both chapters and I have loved every single one, but I think I can say as of this minute that this one is absolutely my favorite. I’m pretty sure I’ve said that after every one of them but this time I’m really serious LOL

The anticipation I felt while waiting for this book ended up being so worth it, the characters were as usual amazing and the storyline was unique and written perfectly. I was so happy to see a character I have always wondered about and loved finally get his story and what a story it was. I was so invested in this whole book that there were so many times I actually was holding my breath or actually had my breath took away. This one hit all the feels and I was so sad when it was over. I guess I’ve read enough books where I am constantly on guard and there was one character in this story that I never trusted until the last page…I kept waiting for what I suspected to happen and when it never did I felt that was a fantastic twist, not sure if the author did this on purpose or not but regardless it worked LOL

I don’t know how to put into words the need for someone just coming in to this series how important it would be to read right from the very start with the Tucson Chapter (The Home Chapter) and then move to Colorado…I don’t know how this author does it but every single story is fresh and new. Never gets predictable and I seriously can’t wait to reread every single book back to back.

This author is a genius storyteller…No other words to describe her.

Still waiting for one character to get his book and I have a feeling that one is going to completely ruin me yet I can not wait!!

Amazingly Awesome!!!

So this is my first read by this author and I’m just not sure LOL This book scared the tar out of me, I tried really hard to keep up with what was going on and what was real and what was a dream, and what was a flashback…I had to reread a couple times just to stay straight and I think I did.

This is labelled a thriller and it contained everything a thriller should in my opinion. The cover was enough to scare me but it was also enough to make me give this book a try. I do wish it had been a bit longer or even gave us an epilogue because I cant even use my imagination for where this would go next. Was any of it real? Did it all have some sort of deeper meaning and I’m just missing it? I have no clue but I will say that yes I will read more from this author, the writing was terrific and although I don’t normally read these kinds of books it was kind of nice going outside the box.

5+++++ Stars

Oh my goodness I loved this book so so much. Everything about it…The characters, the feel of the town, the landscape, the buildings, the flow of the writing, the having me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what was going on…LITERALLY EVERYTHING!

Now I want more so I’ve already searched out and have the next 3 books written down in order and will get those loaded up on my kindle ASAP.

Saddle Gap is one of those places I would love to live..Small town, awesome people and the feeling of just being at home there. Sorrel was trying to stay under the radar, trying to stay safe and rebuild her life after losing her husband. The case had not been solved and with her career noone was sure if it was because of her or not so she moved to Saddle Gap to rebuild a home and business that was left to her by her Aunt and Uncle. She made quick friends with Teri, who I absolutely loved, she was a whirlwind whenever she was around. As things started happening and her fears that her past was catching up to her she found herself dealing with a local detective who aggravated her as much as he fascinated her. Chris Reed was determined to figure out what Sorrel was hiding and why murders started happening right when this newcomer came to town, a newcomer he found himself not being able to stay away from.

Then theres Flash, totally loved Flash! 🙂

I am so in love with this book and can not wait to read on in this series, this author definitely knows how to build a mystery and while your trying to figure it all out you have become like one with the story…Emotionally invested in all of it.

Can’t recommend enough…Loved it!!!

5+++++ Stars

I am so much in love with this series I can’t hardly stand myself. I want to go back and start from the beginning and read them all over again.

This one has me confused because in a sense it might just be my favorite in the series, but then at the same time not. I loved the story, I adored the characters, and Juliette might just be one of my favorite females leads ever. My problem lies with feeling like there was not enough of the club like in the other books. I missed that, I missed all the other people I have come to love and my only wish is that there was more of them and the MC involved. Don’t get me wrong, they were there but just not as involved as Im used to.

In saying that I loved the concept of this book, I kind of had suspicions at the very first lawyer visit of what might be happening but that didn’t matter because how it was all written was vintage AM Myers. I read it in one sitting and hated when it was over.

I can not wait for more from the Bayou Devils and truthfully just anything by this author. It’s an auto one click for me.

Loved It!!

WOW!! And Holy Crap….

I just finished this and my heart is still racing…What a book!!

I don’t even know where to start with this review, I do know that this book sits among my favorites so far in 2019, and in this genre definitely in my tops of all time.

There were times while reading I had to slow down and work through some things, this author plotted this story so perfectly and even when I’d get confused for some reason I knew it was for a reason and that it was building something I wasn’t aware of yet. I have whiplash of the brain, I had it all figured out so many times and then just like that I knew nothing.

I knew when I started this book that Ellie was going to be one of those characters you will never forget. I tried to imagine how she felt moving to a place where you know nobody and can’t even understand half of what is being said around you, and she did it all for love. I’ll admit Johan was awesome at times, but he more than ticked me off through most of this book and when you read it you will probably know the exact times Im talking about.

I worked hard right alongside Ellie in this book but the last quarter of this story I felt like a bulldozer running through these words. Good Lord this author even had me questioning the one person that couldn’t have had anything to do with it. I was a hot mess, and still kind of am.

That ending …cliffhanger but then not a cliffhanger…All I know is I must have the next book as soon as possible…I have a feeling Ellie is going to need me even more in the next book LOL
And I have to know what the future holds for these people..ALL of them!

AMAZINGLY AWESOME!!

4 Stars

I just finished this story and again it was beautifully written and being the 4th in this series, I do feel Im liking them better as they go. I still get easily confused but that’s not the authors fault, Im invested enough in this series that I keep reading even though the genre is just not something I normally like or read. I chalk this up to the fantastic writing style of this author.

There is so much going on in this book and there were a couple times I literally stopped and had to really think about what was happening. Saint Augustina is the main player and Saint Benedict played a very large part in this entire book. I loved the interaction between these two and the story of their past. I think I somewhat understand what happened at the end between the two of them but you’d have to read it yourself to get it.

I wasn’t sure about the orange lady at first but quickly found myself really liking her character. Saint Augustina’s story broke my heart and the ending had me bawling.

It’s weird for me to say that I’m actually really looking forward to where this author plans to take this series next, who knows maybe by the time I finish reading them all I’ll be a convert to this genre or at least find that Im understanding it all better.

Amazing writing and I can’t wait for more. I highly recommend reading all of these in order. Everything kind of ties together in a weird way and if I hadn’t read the ones before I know I really would have been lost.

I just can’t face that there will be no more Hawke Family books, and since there is a sentence after the end of this book that leads me to believe there will be something more in the future, I will hold out hope that we haven’t heard the last of them.

I’ve loved every one of these books, as well as anything this author writes, she is an immediate go to when I want a story that kind of makes me feel like I have come home.

This one was a bit tougher for me as I don’t normally choose to read this type of book but I had to in this case and just skimmed through a few parts and stayed completely focussed on the storyline. Luca was hard not to like, I think it’s because this author gave us insight into his thoughts. What he was dealt because of his crime fathers death was a struggle that he managed perfectly. I could see both sides of this and felt how hard it was on everyone. Luca grew up loving the Hawkes and thought of them as family. He is left with big decisions to make, ones that will affect everyone he loves..Will he get back all that he wants in life or lose absolutely everything?

This as usual was written beautifully and I highly recommend grabbing this whole series, none of this will make sense if you don’t have the whole story behind everyone in this book.

I see a reread of this whole series in my very near future!

I have read both books in this series that came before this one and I definitely enjoyed this one and as they go each one becomes my favorite of the series. I guess it’s getting deeper into Dahlia’s character and the teaming up of her and Alex is awesome.

I did like the both worlds aspect of this story and Evans is one of my favorite characters. This whole book had me on the edge of my seat as you never knew what was going to happen next, and there are so many characters in this story, I enjoyed each one.

I highly recommend reading these in order, although the author does an amazing job with helping along the way there’s just so much that ties this book to the other two and you really would be missing out if you started with this one.

I absolutely will read more by this author and although this is not a chosen genre of mine, she has found a way to keep me coming back for more and actually looking forward to reading her words.

Murder Creek by Jane Suen

5 Stars

I am a professed 100% complete lifelong fan of this author, I don’t care what it is, if her name is on it I read it. She is one of those authors that you never know what your going to get when you open one of her books and she always finds a way to mess with my mind and leaves me staring into space when I finish one of her stories.

In saying all of that..I loved Murder Creek. Is it a favorite of all I’ve read from her?.. No. That is because it didn’t leave me questioning everything at the end and didn’t have a mind bending twist like most of her stories do. Does it mean I enjoyed it any less?.. No. This was still vintage Jane Suen and everything I love about her. She is a master storyteller and I felt like I was in the book, walking right alongside Eve, I could see her hotel room, I could feel the atmosphere while at the creek, I was hesitant about everyone she met in her journey to find out what happened to Lacey Walken. I love how dedicated Eve was and her nightmares scared me. I felt it all and that’s just one of the reasons I love this author so much!

Not going to give away any part of this storyline, you have to read it and experience the building of this investigation and see how it ends. This part was not something I expected and it was enough of a twist to make every word leading up to it totally worth it.

Read this and everything else you can get your hands on by this author..She is amazing!

Bring on the next 🙂

I just love how this author ties in her titles to the stories, they are awesome. I loved this one and it might be my favorite so far.

I love a second chance romance and this one was completely fantastic. It had a bit of a twist in it that for some reason I never saw coming and I actually love when an author can catch me off guard. Sebastian is why this book is my favorite, there was just something about him that drew me in immediately and the interactions between him and Kit were perfection.

I love how this author writes, the way her words transition so easily which makes the reading that much more enjoyable, and how she includes all of the leading characters from the first 2 books and the friendship bonds are awesome. I fell in love with Kit’s parents and its those family bonds that grab me and hold on in books. It’s definitely one of my favorite things.

I recommend reading these in order, you really won’t appreciate all of the characters if you don’t, I can not wait for more from this author.

I have read all of the Feisty Lawyers Books and if it’s possible, each one gets better and better and that says a lot because I thought the very first was completely awesome.

I love these people and this author keeps giving us looks into them and their relationships and makes us fall even more for them with each story.

This one was tough with the whole Cult thing and it completely hooked me from the very start, I don’t know why this subject fascinates me I guess it’s that it’s even possible for these “people” to get inside of their targets heads and how easy it is for them to lead them…Hard to imagine yet no less true.

Dianna and Anders are on the case and had just recently married when Dianna goes undercover to get answers about The Presidents God daughter and ends up with a whole more than what any of them bargained for. I loved Cate in this story and how feisty she was.

I just love this series, I recommend reading them in order so you have all of the story and this author is absolutely one of my favorites and I can not wait for more!!

I could literally read India Kells writing all day every day. Every book I read by her reels me in even further.

This was a short quick read and still felt like a full length novel because of the content. I fell in love with these characters and love the whole vibe with everyone at the Sanctuary. Kat’s story had me on the edge of my seat because it was so different and I loved how Brant was determined to take care of her and his realization of what she meant to him was written beautifully.

I highly recommend reading all of these books in order so you have all of the characters stories up to this point, it just adds to this one that much more.

I can not wait for more in this series and as always, by this author.

I totally devoured this book in less than an hour and hated when it ended. I have to start with I don’t normally read this type of genre but when I picked up the first of this series it hooked me within a few pages and here I am now totally invested in all of these characters.

This author has a way of taking a genre that normally holds no interest for me and keeps me somewhat confused and made it as easy to read and understand as some of my favorite genres.

You really must read all of these in order to understand the complete story and to understand Blackbird and how she got where she is and to just completely fall in love with her and admire her strength, I love how she is holding on to that small piece of herself that allows a bit of emotion to still enter in. I love her determination and totally understand her need for revenge even if it consumes her and goes against orders.

These stories all flow so smoothly and i actually wish they were all longer and I don’t know if there’s more coming but I’m praying there is, there’s more stories to tell and Halo completely fascinates me and I would love more about her and of course Blackbird and Adam.

Awesome book, Awesome Series, by an Amazing writer.

So I love this series and although this one might not have been my favorite so far I still completely enjoyed it. For some reason it didn’t have the same feel I’ve come to love in the other books but the story was just as good and a great continuation.

This part featured Robin, the owner of another talent agency who we met in book one when Catherine first came to town and inadvertently became the face of the paranormal talent agency. It was absolutely unexpected when I started reading and realizing this book was Robin’s story and it was definitely nice to get to know her a bit better and my dislike for her disappeared quickly, but there is still another player roaming through this series and it will be interesting to get to know her better, I feel like there’s a softness underneath it all and I could be completely wrong and the background story that has been looming throughout may or of course may not be a part of her story. I love how this author is handling each one of these characters, I fell pretty quickly for Jackson and am curious how the future will play out for him and Robin and also her talent agency.

This is a great series, I love how each book is a quick read making it easier in the future to sit and read the whole series back to back in a short amount of time and I will definitely do that.

Can not wait for the next.. Loved it!

I was so so so excited to see a new series by this author, who is absolutely a must read one click author for me. Then I see that is still has my favorite Fortis people..WIN WIN

This book had everything I have come to expect and love from this author and I loved the characters and can not wait for this series to continue. Alex and Evelyn knew each other as teens and lost each other causing a lot of hurt…Now years later that meet again and under very strained circumstances. The girl he loved years ago is now known as Siren and is nothing like he remembers. I loved the chemistry between these two and the fight to keep each other alive was executed perfectly.

I highly recommend this story as well as anything this author writes…She is a master at suspense and keeping you on the edge of your seat.

Can not wait for the next. Loved It!!

5+++++ Stars

Kerri has to be one of my absolute favorite female leads EVER!! OMG I loved this book, I loved the story, the writing, the characters, the imagination it has left me with wondering where this series will go from here, EVERYTHING!

I am a sucker for an MC story but this one was totally different in many ways and I WANT MORE!! This book read so fast, I could not believe how lost I got in it and before I knew it I was done and so so sad because I loved the whole feel of this story and I want more, I can not wait to see if the things going through my mind come true. I loved the dynamic between Kerri and Tracker, well actually Kerri and everybody in this story but the push and pull between those two was totally awesome. I love a strong alpha male and the strong stubborn sassy females that challenge them and this story had that in spades.

Bring on Hawk, I loved him in this story and the girls night scene totally and completely cracked me up, and I loved Shelly and I think everyone should have a friend like her!

This was an amazing start to this series and I will be first in line for the next…

LOVED LOVED LOVED IT!!

Holy Buckets!! So I’ll start with, this is my first read by this author and I enjoyed it so much that I couldn’t stand walking away from it until I finished. It flowed in a way that made it a really quick read and I didnt want it to end.

I don’t even know where to start with this review as I am so afraid I’ll give too much away, but I can tell you that Cade and Lecia were awesome characters and I love that this all started out with them already married and expecting a baby, a baby that was conceived on their honeymoon which I find awesome since I was born almost 9 months to the day my parents got married 🙂

The journey through their pregnancy was filled with alot of normal reality and I loved how that was all written but then the past comes slamming into the story knocking me completely off kilter. The twists and turns were totally unexpected and took this story in a whole different direction and I’ll admit scared the bejesus out of me. Everything gets put to the test and I just can’t even imagine.

I loved the family dynamic in this book from both Cade and Lecia’s sides. Strong family bonds always draw me in and this one was everything I love. I can’t even tell you how much I can not wait for the next in this series.

Awesome!!

The Mourning Islands by Douglas Wells

5 Stars

This is not my first book by this author and definitely will not be my last. This story definitely did not come off the way I thought it was going to and although I was looking forward to reading it I’m completely satisfied with how it went. I’m actually wondering if there will be more coming in the future for our Talmon and The Mourning Islands, I loved the setting and the whole concept of this book. There was just enough suspense and winding turns to keep me glued to this one till I finished and then of course just sat there with my mind going 100 different directions.

There are so many things I’d love to comment on and am not going to because I will teeter too close to spoiling parts and I can’t do that. I found that I was able to connect to these characters quickly and thought I had it all figured out about ¾’s of the way in but then this author decided to derail everything I had figured out and has left me with wanting more.

Will definitely be watching for more from this author, I enjoyed the first book I read by Mr. Wells but this one is my favorite so far.

Awesome and highly recommend!

5 ++++++++ Stars

************************************************

The first words out of my mouth when I finished this are hidden up in that line of stars for many reasons…the first being Amazon doesn’t like swearing in their reviews and the 2nd is three of the words I used can not be added because they just can’t… This was a short quick read but had the impact of a full length novel, that’s just part of what this author does so perfectly!

This author hates me, I’ve decided that must be why she ended this book and the next one is not readily available yet…I can close my eyes and picture her finishing this part, setting the date for the next and then sitting back saying…Yes..that will do with an evil evil laugh while doing so!

So as I’ve said many times regarding anything I read by this author, this was truly amazing..I’m getting used to the darker side and feel like it might be totally mastered by this author as well as anything else she writes.

DO NOT read this one without reading Wrath, trust me on this, it wont work…As hard as I tried to despise Alek he found a way to draw me in and with his future plans floating out there waiting to find their way into book 3 I just can’t figure out how this author is going to handle all of this and that’s why she’s the writer and I’m the reader.

I cant write anymore without saying too much so I’m going to end this here with the hope that anyone that reads this review will run out and immediately one click both of the books in this series…They are amazing and I just don’t know if I will make it to August…Sigh….

Fictional-ish: A Friends to Lovers Romance by Natalina Reis

5 Stars

Love a good friends to lovers romance and this one was a bit different as it spanned many miles and much time apart and hurdles that made this story unique.

Scotland has always been somewhere I want to visit someday and this book took me there and made me feel as if I was there. Livie moved there to open a new bookstore and she had everything, well almost everything..She left her best friend who in her mind betrayed her beyond repair and as she tried to build a new life Kyle and the hurt he caused her was never far from her mind.

I loved this story, every part of it..I even loved to despise Mia and cant help it but I fell head over heels for Cal and cant help but hope that just maybe this author will let this story continue and let Cal and even Jenny have their own stories.

This is not my first book by this author and absolutely will not be my last. I love the way her words flow and grab a hold and not let go till the very last page.

I highly recommend this story and really anything by this author.

Loved it!!
