My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One of the book’s most commendable aspects is its willingness to tackle complex emotions such as anxiety, sadness, and the excitement of new beginnings. The narrative encourages young readers to acknowledge their feelings while also highlighting the constructive nature of friendship as a source of comfort and strength. The way Grace learns to adapt to her new environment and make new friends beautifully illustrates that while change can be daunting, it can also lead to personal growth and discovery.

The illustrations, coupled with the engaging text, make the book suitable for children aged 7 to 10, capturing their attention and sparking their imaginations. The large print format further enhances accessibility for younger readers or those who may struggle with typical text sizes.

This is a short but exciting read. I think it takes a special talent to write something that pulls you in so completely even with it being a shot read. The characters are easy to bond with and well written. Right from the start you know you’re in for an exciting read. It’s got a fast pace but it’s not overwhelming or over crowded with information which I appreciate since it is a shorter read. I’m really looking forward to to the next one. Four stars and highly recommend.

This is a delightful children’s book that takes readers on a heartwarming journey filled with bravery and friendship through the eyes of Kody, a spirited dinosaur. The narrative artfully captures the challenges and fears of being separated from a loved one, all while imparting valuable life lessons.

The author does an excellent job of making Kody a relatable character, embodying both excitement and nervousness as he navigates through an unfamiliar environment. Perry-Knights skillfully illustrates Kody’s emotional journey, teaching young readers about the importance of courage and resilience in the face of challenges.

One of the standout aspects of this book is its ability to address themes of fear and discovery in a manner that is accessible and engaging for children. The lessons about embracing new experiences and overcoming obstacles resonate well, making it not just an entertaining read but also an educational one.

Quarterback Keeper: A College Sports Romance (Fall Lake Ballers Book 1)Quarterback Keeper: A College Sports Romance by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This author has quickly become one of my favorites – the writing style, character development, balance of story with spice, just overall books I always devour because I enjoy them so much.

Kylian is a college football star with big NFL dreams. On the surface, he really has it all. He can have any woman he wants, people look up to him, and he has the world in the palm of his hands. Behind the scenes, he is a man with a terminally ill mother weighing on him as well as a manipulative father who is obsessed with his legacy and the political scene. When he gets on his boat and finds a woman hiding out, he takes advantage of an opportunity that didn’t seem like it could arise with anyone else.

Gia is the woman on Kylian’s boat and she is hiding from a past she is trying to outrun. When the incredibly handsome Kylian offers her an opportunity to fake being his girlfriend to make his sick mother happy, she recognizes it’s really a chance she can’t refuse in her current situation.

As Kylian and Gia present themselves as a couple for his mother, they never plan on doing anything but playing along. However, as they are together and facing different circumstances within their own situations, lines blur and feelings start to develop. They begin to share hopes, fears and dreams and recognize something within the other they might like to pursue. Will they be able to solve their issues together and check out the possibility of forever? Quarterback Keeper is a great mix of danger, attraction, suspense, sweetness and spice, and such a great introduction to their world. I’m really looking forward to reading further in the series.

This was a wonderful slow burn of fantasy, romance and some mystery. Even though it is a little slow at the start, it is worth it to keep going. The beginning is mainly world-building so it is understandable. The heroine, Petra, is very determined and her quest ends up being for revenge and also about self-discovery. On her journey, she crosses paths with a Captain who intends to punish her for not bowing in respect, but then Captain Rand instructs them to leave her alone. This is the changing point of the book. Enter high tension, romance, and some spice. I highly recommend to all fans of fantasy and romance.

Strings AttachedStrings Attached by Loriana Cappello
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ash is busking for some cash when a young woman catches his eye. He recognizes Calla from secondary school, where he remembers falling for her, although they never had a relationship. She is home in Braebeach from college for the summer, visiting the home of her grandparents where she grew up. Her relationship with her dad is nonexistent, and her mom is only interested in whatever new man she happens to be with at any given moment.

As Ash finishes up his playing and loads his car, he hears an “Ow” and turns to see Calla fall on her butt, holding her head in confusion. According to the witness, Calla was too busy staring at Ash across the street to see the giant road sign she ended up walking into. Ash snatches the opportunity to gather Calla up and get her to the hospital to be checked out.

As the story progresses, Ash and Calla both share their past relationships and experiences, inner turmoil, feelings for one another and their hopes and dreams. Since they both had been pining for one another for 5 years, they decided to take the summer with no promises and see where it leads. Both of them having opportunities to follow their dreams forces them to take a long look at how they feel about one another and what they’re willing to risk in one area to achieve what they want in others.

Cast of characters is excellent, there’s sweetness and a little spice, chemistry, inner turmoil, back story and a beautiful journey. I really enjoy these books.

The Holey LandThe Holey Land by Laura Koerber
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve picked up books by this author before, so I knew when I picked it up that I was in for a wonderful read. Despite its brevity, this is a story rich in discovery and insight as the author blurs the line between fantasy and reality. We journey with Molly as she seeks a retreat from the mundane but isn’t quite sure why. What unfolds is a tapestry of magical realism where spirits, art, and the desert landscape intertwine to explore themes of love, grief, and personal discovery.

This book invites readers to ponder how the past influences our present, and how sometimes stepping away from our familiar lives can lead to profound realizations. The author masterfully crafts a narrative filled with whimsy and depth. I don’t want to give too much away because I would be robbing you of a phenomenal read! It’s a delightful escape that is perfect for readers looking for a gentle yet thought-provoking experience. This novella encapsulates the beauty of taking time for oneself and embracing the unknown. I highly recommend picking this up as a mini vacation for the soul. You don’t want to miss it!

4 Stars

This book was a tough one for me to finish. It is not terribly long at 131 pages, but the dialogue was choppy. The plot and story were interesting-even for someone who is not a fan of alien/UFO stories, and if the dialogue had been better, I might go check out the other books in the series. The dialogue between the characters, though, was stilted and made it difficult to read. I felt there were too many instances of the author using extra descriptive words for how or why the character made a statement when it was evident due to the context without the extra words.

I am such a football romance fan, and Quarterback Keeper by Isla Vaughn fits that need perfectly. This is the first story in the Fall Lake Ballers series, and it finds Gia and Kylian falling for each other after a deal they strike up to allow both of them to achieve their goals. Kylian needs to get his father off of his back because he wants him to marry a billionaire’s daughter and Gia is trying to hide from her ex-boyfriend. Neither of course, come forward with the truths until it is too late, but the twists and turns keep coming. I definitely was rooting for them and of course, they fell in love with each other a little too late.

Gia is hiding out on a boat from a horrible abusive ex. When the boat owner Kylian finds her she is sure she’s screwed. But Kylian is battling life troubles of his own with a terminally ill mother and a horribly manipulative father. So he strikes up a deal with Gia to fulfill his mom’s dying wish of him finding Love. They fake date in exchange for her having a safe place to sleep. But Kylian’s dad and Gia’s ex make multiple attempts to tear the two apart. I loved the banter, the way Gia fit in with Kylian’s mom and friends, and the twists in the story.
I have been in a horrible reading slump for awhile, trying to find time to read let alone finish books has been hard. But THIS book did it for me. I was hooked from the start and stayed up late into the night finishing it. I loved it and can’t wait to get my hands on the next one.

I was captivated throughout by this magical realism novella. The main character Molly, a lady in her early fifties, is such a likeable and relatable character that I felt instantly invested in her journey. Wanting a new experience Molly decides to take a well earned vacation to the tiny town of Holy Land in New Mexico. Her time away turns out to be both “surprising” and “interesting” as she goes on a journey of self-discovery. The intriguing storyline is a mix of the real and the magical as Molly encounters petroglyphs, rattlesnakes and vultures, alongside spirits and ghosts. The setting was brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative which made me feel immersed in the story. This was an enjoyable and inspiring read and one which I recommend reading!

Sanctuary by Bree M. Lewandowksi was an absolute rollar coaster of a read. This book will absolutely throw you back and forth between emotions. The characters are frustratingly real, and brought to life with incredible storytelling. At some points I wanted to reach into to book and give Petra a good shake! Sanctuary will absolutely enthrall you and if you’re anything like me, make you cry and mourn alongside Petra. I do want to mention a trigger warning, as some of this content is really not for the faint of heart, however irregardless a great read.

This book is a great YA fantasy story that has a brilliant cast of characters. The friend group that is pulled through into a different world are a perfect mix of different personalities. They all have such unique experiences when they get there but it makes for a really interesting read.
The world building starts off slow, but it definitely doesn’t finish that way. You soon find yourself pulled into the story and wanting to discover even more about it. As the first book in a new series, this is a really great start and I am looking forward to seeing what else the series has to offer.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I Miss My Friend And That’s Okay: Axel’s Story is another heartwarming story, told from Axel’s perspective. Axel’s mum is a soldier in the army and their family moves around a lot. Due to this he misses his best friend Kerrington. Even though there are miles between them they keep in contact through writing letters to each other. I liked that the story is written in the format of letters.
The colourful illustrations bring the story to life as Axel shares his new experiences with his best friend whilst learning it’s okay to miss them just as it is ok to make new friends as well.
As with the first book, I Move A Lot and That’s Okay: Axel’s Story it was an interesting read and a valuable story for anyone moving at a young age.

Axel as the title suggests a 7-year-old boy learning that being uprooted and moving all the time is not all bad. It teaches skills to deal with moving to new places and experiencing the fears and scariness that comes with the unknown. It also shows just how resilient kids of that age are.
Kyle’s mixed emotions and anxieties are real are all valid when he must move again because his mum is in the Army. Why does he have to move again? Why can’t he stay with his friends? Where will his new home be? What will it be like? Will he make friends? What will his new school be like?
I Move A Lot and That’s Okay: Axel’s Story is a delightful heartwarming colourful picture book is seen through Axels eyes as he shares his concerns and fears as he is helped by his family to overcome them and learns to see them and embrace them as an adventure.
Not having to go through the same struggles it was an interesting read and a valuable story for anyone moving at a young age.

London Detective Agency (London Detective Agency Series) by Stephanie R. Caffrey. I loved this series. Its a fast paced mystery romance series and it will keep you flipping pages all night. Mistaken Identity (London Detective Agency Series) by Stephanie R. Caffrey. This is a wonderful romantic suspense that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

As they spend time together they begin to grow feelings for each other. Be My Little Baby (London Detective Agency Book 2)  This is James and Tessa’s story and it can be read as a standalone but I always recommend reading them in order.

Someone begins to send her threatening letter and photos she realizes she has a stalker and is very concerned. Tessa decides that she needs to hire James a Private Investigator and his crew to help her find who is stalking her.

This was an enjoyable fantasy romance but it was so much more than a fantasy romance. This story had it all, secrets, lies, danger, magic, and a young women who is prepared to do anything to get to the truth about her brother.
I was captivated by Petra right from the beginning and I really felt her strength and determination as she went through every obstacle to find the truth. She knows the only way she will find out the truth about her brother’s death is to go into the Cloistered City as a servant. But getting in there isn’t an easy task and once she gets a job as a maid trying to find answers leaves her open to danger.
With all the secrets, lies and danger the last thing she needs is romance until she meets Rand Tsenturian.
Rand Tsenturian is captain of the elite soldiers called the Shivalry. As part of the Shivalry Rand’s only focus should be protecting the Cloistered City however when Petra catches his eye he knows that he has to help her and keep her safe.
But how will Petra react when she realises that Captain Rand knew her brother and may have the answers she is looking for?

With an ancient incantation, a sacrifice that needs to be made, fate, danger and a romance that won’t be denied this is a story that is captivating and holds your attention from beginning to end.

This was a super fast read and the story is captivating. For being short, it goes straight to action which I loved very much. The story grabs you, then unexpected romance, and action. I don’t want to spoil it for anyone but it’s worth the read. It has dragon shifters, a forbidden romance, and some triggers like S/H scenes. They don’t go into hard details but for those who need to check triggers this might help. The book also ends with a cliff hanger and did an amazing job because not only does it make you wanting to read more but the ending gives the reader hope. Many possible ideas on what might happen next and I enjoyed that. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a fast read with a super hero magic vibe this is the book for you.

The Holey Land by Laura Koerber. This is such a fun book. Its quite different than anything I’ve ever read. Its the story of Molly who has decided to take a solo trip to New Mexico. She’s not really sure she is going there but she just knows she has to. Molly is middle aged and in my mind she is going thru the middle age crazies. She wants to discover what is out there in this big old world. She ends up in The Holey Land, New Mexico and she meets up with three different guides who help her in different ways. There is magic, intrigue, mystery and self help all thrown in with real native philosophies. I loved that Molly was looking to reinvent herself and that she was brave enough to go out on a limb and try some new stuff even if it seems different and weird to her. This is a fun book about being middle age and trying to recreate yourself.
