When Elle is presented with every orphan’s dream, finding out she’s actually a princess, she isn’t sure if she should join the hulking sexy man, Locan, on a spaceship ride, or run screaming from the room because he’s obviously nuts. If it weren’t for the strange things she’d recently encountered, like suddenly gaining star shaped birthmarks and a bracelet that once belonged to her mother lighting up with an eerie green light, she would be out of there already. She has enough questions she wants answered to stay and find out, taking his hand and embarking on a journey across the darkness of space. He says she needs to save their people from her evil uncle. She wants to know where she comes from, who her mother was, and why she never fit in on earth. The path to their home planet isn’t without its bumps. Saving aliens, and earthlings while evading her uncle’s men and dodging the pushy goddesses who want to tell them all what to do. Elle has to learn who she really wants to be and to help Locan become the warrior he was meant to be. 

Can she be what the rebels need? Can Locan trust the beast that lives inside of him? Will the people of Prias once again have a princess on the throne to rule their utopian society?

Death & Mirrors (All Things Dark & Deadly Book 1) by SF Benson – Review by Darian Donaldson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wow! This book sucked me right in and I finished it in no time! A great intro book to a new series. Evaline is a headstrong female who knows what she wants and isn’t going to stop until she gets it. I can’t wait to see what happens next with her and the strange world of Londinium. Also what an amazing use of vocabulary in this book! It’s not often I read books where I have to look up what words mean.. I absolutely loved it!

Death & Mirrors: All Things Dark & Deadly, Book OneDeath & Mirrors: All Things Dark & Deadly, Book One by S.F. Benson

This is the first book I have read by S.F. Benson. It’s very dark which is why I was drawn to read it. I love reading about paranormal things as well as fantasy. Danger, adventure, family, magic is just part of what see in this series, these are all things that I love about books like this. I can’t wait to read more of this series and her other stories as well. I am fascinated by S.F. Benson and her imagination that she allows us to enter into. I can’t and see what’s in “Death & Shadows” (Book Two).

Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass (Mermaid Science Series) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Donya Pedigo

The Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass (Mermaid Science, #3)The Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mermaid and the Water Magnifying Glass, Mermaid Science, by Lois Wickstrom, is part of an interesting series of books that help the readers see that science is all around them, not just in a classroom. This is the 3rd book I’ve read in this series and I’m completely smitten. These books are not only a fun, fast read that can teach both children and adults about science, but they also have beautifully rendered illustrations, with fun colors and scenes.
Trezzie (the mermaid) collects trash people leave on the lake shore. With the help of her friends Maia and Fig they use a plastic fruit box to make a water magnifying glass so they can identify the rocks she found with unusual markings on them. It turns out that the rock is actually a fossil, which gives a great way to open a chat about what fossils are, where they come from, and even animal/ fossil classifications.
The author continues to write about easy science experiments/ projects that you can recreate and talk about while having a fun learning experience with children of multiple age levels. I think parents, teachers, and kids alike will love this book and learn from it. The last page goes into more scientific details about the science behind magnifying glasses, so even adults or older children can learn or refresh their knowledge. Do yourself a favor and get this series!

This is book 1.5 of the Twilight realm trilogy and I was not disappointed. I fell in love with the first book and now I’m in love with the second. I love this authors way of writing. The way she can bring the plot alive and write the characters beautifully. It’s like you are right next to the characters, experiencing everything the same way they are in that moment. This book is for you if you like strong female leads who aren’t afraid to face impossible opponents.
I’m excited to see how the author continues this trilogy in the near future.

What a cute, educational children’s story! I wish that this book had been around when I was a kid, I was always interested in stories about mermaids and have always had a fascination when it comes to anything related to science. I highly recommend that every parent reads this book to their kid, it definitely teaches you to think differently and might inspire some to become scientists in the future! The book definitely reminds me of the Magic Treehouse series, in that it teaches kids to think differently than a normal children’s book would, even though this is a picture book and the other series is not. I wish that I had kids of my own that I could have read this too, but I did read it to my younger cousin who definitely appeared fascinated by the story. I plan to buy some of the other books for her in the future, and for myself if I am ever to have kids of my own!

This was my first book by S.F. Benson so I wasn’t sure what I was getting in to. But I loved it! I love strong female main characters and always a huge fan of any type of magic/paranormal story. I also love when an author makes an old childhood fairytale, like Alice in Wonderland, into something more dark and twisted. This is a must read for sure but it leaves you craving the next book!

Twilight's SpyTwilight’s Spy by K.M. Wray
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Yarissa never wanted to be a spy. Her plan was to complete her training and then join the elites, which is a group of warriors. On her last assignment as a trainee, she was to get information on how to cross the Haltiya Ravine. She succeeded when no other elf did. That put her in the eyes of the King and he personally asked her to continue her spy work into the night realm. As much as she didn’t want to go this path, she couldn’t say no to the king. Yarissa’s plan was to complete the mission and return with the favour of the king. The only obstacle is survival and inexperience. A bad combination indeed.

This book was a great short background story of Yarissa, fitting nicely in between book one and two of this series. My only issue with it is that it was kind of repetitive. It felt like the author was just filling in space to make the story longer.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I LOVE the way this author writes! I was completely immersed into the story from the beginning. The fable flows along nicely and nothing seems forced which make it enjoyable to the reader. I can just fall into the story and let the author take me on the journey.

I enjoyed meeting Brie and following her on her path. She changed a lot over the course of the story. She had doubts but eventually did research and believed then all the good came. Her interaction with others is what bolstered her confidence after getting over the fear. I really liked the humor that was brought to this book as the story drew to a close.

Overall this is the second book I have read by this author in this series. I liked thins one as much as the previous. As stated before its the building of the story and its characters along with her fluidity that makes this such an entertaining story.

On Viking Seas (The Forerunner Saga Series Book 3) by Jay Veloso Batista

On Viking Seas is the third book in The Forerunner Saga Series and is a epic fantasy that is hard to put down. I truly enjoyed reading this book although I had a hard time following along at first because there is a lot going on but once I got a couple chapters in it flowed better from there on. This is a fairly new author to me although I have read a couple of other books by him this is my favorite yet. This is packed with action, adventure, Vikings, drama, danger and some mythology. I highly recommend reading the first two books if you haven’t already started them as they are just as good as this one and you get a better idea what is going on plus you get to know the characters better. Get ready to be taken on quite the Vikings adventure. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I look forward to reading more from this Author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It took me a while to get into this book, not due to the book itself but because of life events. But, once I was able to focus more on the book, it took me less than 2 days! What a great read! The characters are so well-developed and believable! The author did a great job describing the relationship between the members of the ka-tet. Julia’s strength through so many terrible circumstances is truly exceptional. Not only is this kind of a period piece (as it’s set in the 1500s), but it’s a journey of Julia’s transformation into a vampire and her discovery of the world in this new light. I devoured the description of the world in 1500s England as well as the world of the vampires. Definitely a must read for anyone who loves tales involving the creatures of the night! I can’t wait to read the rest in this War of Destiny series.

EmVee is a strong MC this this book. She is a high school boxer from a family of professional boxers. She first feels like an outsider as once usually does when one moves to a new town. She then meets Silas and Kayson and she starts feeling like she belongs. Just as she feels this way teens start disappearing and nobody knows what’s going on. The twists and turns in this prequel made do lots of double takes and scratching my head! I enjoyed reading this and the characters were likeable. The writing was done well and had a good pace to it. I feel like I will be getting the first book to see how everything plays out!

Totally surprised by this book and in such a good way! This story is what happens after you say “yes” to a life altering decision? Julia is the daughter of a wealthy family and falls in love with Adam. The family is not happy with Julia’s love for Adam and force Julia into a arranged marriage with a cruel man who is abusive. When the ultimate offer is presented to Julia to grant her freedom…what is the ultimate cost? Joining the Vampire Resistance……

This story definitely gives me all the feels of drama, intrigue, twists and my heart truly ached for Julia and what she endured. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series!!

Twilight’s Spy was good! I do like this series and am really looking forward to book 2. I couldn’t believe the cliffhanger this one was left on. I was thinking it may not be a completed mission while reading it, but definitely thought it would’ve gotten further than that!
Now that the Twilight Realm has been reclaimed by the royal family, who they thought parished years before, King Phoenix is looking to bring his sister home. Taken and hidden in the Night Realm the night of the attack that killed his parents, King Phoenix has been doing what he can to get word to the Night Realm King for her return. To no avail.
Yarissa just finished her last trainee assignment as a spy, looking to join the Elites has been summoned. Due to their success on their spy mission Yarissa and Tagreth have been asked to enter the Night Realm to personally get word to the king. Although King Phoenix implies to Yarissa the mission won’t be complete without the return of Princess Zyanna.
Unfortunately early on the mission is soured by great tragedy, leaving Yarissa to complete it on her own. Assisted along by Logon and Sahina is Yarissa successful? The Night Realm doesn’t take kindly to outsiders, does this make her mission more difficult? Are there higher powers at play?
I’m starting to wonder if regents, who took hold in the Twilight Realm are ingrained and controlling the others as well. Especially the Night Realm!
The author presents a wonderful fantasy world that has me sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for more!

A young adult supernatural thriller, seemed right up my ally when I first started reading this novel. While I have only read one other book by this author, it was enough to make me come back for more. The cover has beautiful colors that really make it pop, the character development was great, and it was a fantastic short novel to get me put of my reading slump. So whether you are looking for your next read, or your looking for something to get you out of a slump, make sure you pick this one up today.

I enjoyed this fantasy story. This book is part of the Twilight Realm series which if you haven’t read the previous book then I highly suggest it is just as great as this one. This is a great series that I have enjoyed reading. One of the things I enjoyed about this book is how the author was able to bring it to life with their writing skills and attention to details. This is a story that is fast paced and engaging. A well written story where the characters pull you in from the beginning. I found them to be connectable, strong and supportive of each other. They really made the story for me. This is a story about survival or death. Which one the character chooses you don’t want to miss. A story that is full of action and just hard to put down. I really enjoyed reading this book and I highly recommend it.

Yarissa thinks she can complete her spy training and then become a part of the Elite squad to protect the Twilight realm from ever being taken over again. However, her plans don’t go quite as planned when she is asked by King Pheonix to help with a mission that no elf has ever come back from… find Princess Zyanna in the Night realm where she was secreted away to for protection. Can Yarissa come to terms with her magic that she sees as useless in a fight? Will she be able to locate the princess before her cover is blown?

This is a quick, fun read! Yarissa has a lot of doubt in herself and her future. I enjoyed reading about how she slowly comes to terms with her magic and uses it to her advantage. As she gains confidence in herself, she becomes more self-assured and finds help in places she wasn’t expecting to find help. This seems to be a perfect gap book for the second book in this series. I am looking forward to reading the next book!!

Insatiable Darkness YA fantasy story and an intriguing story and an interesting prelude to the series. The story is written in third person and I felt a slight disconnect with the main character, I think I needed more backstory for them. It also took me a few chapters to get into the story. Having said that it does not mean that the story didn’t have all the elements to be a good story. The story is fast paced and not quite as cohesive as I would have liked. It is a short tale that I would have liked to see a bit longer. As this is the set up for the series, I am hoping we get more in future books.

There is mythology and mystery, danger and supernatural/paranormal beings, magic and more that I am sure that any YA fantasy lover will enjoy.

I really enjoyed this book! This author has this way of writing that makes it seem like we’re traveling on the journey with Yarissa, seeing the way she thinks things through – or doesn’t think things through, as the case may be. I adore the world she’s weaved, and wish I could walk through it with Yarissa. I appreciate the way that her superiors have this faith in her and see her potential in a way that she doesn’t, because it mimics what real life seems like. So many times, it’s the people around us who see our true potential and give us hints as to what our next steps should be, and that is beautifully illustrated in this book. I truly enjoy watching Yarissa grow throughout her journey and look forward to reading more by this author!

Insatiable Darkness is the prequel to The Vigilant series by L.M Preston. It is a novella length story- so it is a very quick and easy read. Having said that, I wished it was a little longer and that we got more character info and more in-depth details, as I felt like sometimes things seemed skirted over, too condensed, choppy/jumpy, and/or a bit rushed. That’s not to say that I wasn’t intrigued by the story, or that I didn’t enjoy the book- because I was, and did. But I just felt like I wanted more, and I was left with so many questions at the end. I am hoping that as this is the prequel in the series, and with this book setting us up for the story to continue, that we will get more answers/detail in the coming book/s.
This is a YA fantasy with mystery, danger, investigation, the supernatural, mythology, and school/teen drama. It has a mysterious vibe that was quite intriguing, too. I liked EmVee and the potential that this prequel holds for the rest of the series- so I will certainly purchase the other books to see what the author has in store for us.

Thank you, L.M. Preston.

This was such a cute book but also had useful knowledge as well. I like that it explained the topic of imaginary friends seeing as how not all young kids experience it, but others can feel included! My kids are 6 and 10 years old and they immediately ran out to test the water magnifying glass! It’s short enough to keep kids’ attention but introduces an easy experiment to try right away. I also appreciate the lesson on fossils in addition to the magnifying glass. A great book all around and would be great for hands-on activities at home or in the classroom!
