This was such a lovely collection of short stories about Sasha and some of the things she comes across in her everyday life. I really liked the length of the stories, I can imagine children reading one each night before bed. Each one provides different opportunities for children to think about what they would do in Sasha’s position. There are some illustrations in the book to accompany each story but this book probably would be more suitable for children 7 and up I feel. Overall a lovely book of short stories that I would definitely recommend for young readers.
I’ve really enjoyed these longer length books from this author. I love the magic that comes through in this story as we go along with Craig, Linda and the Loch Ness Monster. With all the superstitions around the Loch Ness Monster and does it really exist I like that these books are opening up some magical and imaginative world underneath the loch where the monster lives. It’s great for getting children’s creativity and imaginations going. This was another great read. It was a lovely engaging story with nice illustrations to accompany.

Yet again another wonderful read by this very talented author. This novella was so beautifully written that I couldn’t put it down and more to the point I didn’t actually want to! It was so lovely to be back with Pedro and Anne again! I just loved the connection between them, it really was so genuine and beautiful. You could almost feel the love pouring off the pages at times. I really did feel for Pedro because as much as he loves Anne, he cannot let his past demons go with how he was treated by his father. It was so painful for him that it made him not want to be a father himself. As with all of the other books in this series, the author does an amazing job of transporting us to Portugal and with all of the rich detail and descriptive language in the story you really do feel like you are there with the characters. I 100% recommend this read but would also recommend you read Pedro and Anne’s full-length story (The Taste of Light) before reading this wonderful novella.

This was such a lovely children’s story that will definitely spark some imagination. Carrie certainly got more than she bargained for when she tried on her Grandmothers fascinator! The magic begins the moment she places it on her head. One thing I really love with the witing in this book is the way that font changes for the lovely descriptive words the author uses – this could provide quite a few talking points for children when talking about how to improve sentences by adding these wonderful words. This is a really lovely story and one that will definitely create some imaginative thinking from the children reading it.
Elusive Surrender Box set is another wonderful set of stories from a very talented author. This box set features 2 books – Elusive and Tenacious.
Elusive – Sheldon and Alexis
This series just continues to get better and better. Elusive was a fantastic 5 star read, I loved every single minute of it! I love this author, she had such an amazing writing ability, her stories are just an absolute pleasure to read – she creates some brilliant characters and I am always completely absorbed in their story. I love Sheldon, he was definitely book boyfriend material! I loved Sheldon for her dominance but Alexis was certainly one who could hold her own but the passion and sparks between them was off the charts! Their story is definitely a steamy one!! Fantastic read and highly recommended!!
Tenacious – Allie and Nick
Yet again another 5-star read from Ms Mari – absolutely love her books! Allie and Nick’s story was so captivating to read. I loved them both so much. Allie was a great female lead -strong, sassy and definitely independent! The chemistry between the two of these characters was scorching hot – I mean seriously hot! I think they are definitely my favourite couple from this series (and I have loved all the previous ones too)! There was so much going on in this story that I literally could not put it down and read it in one sitting! Ms Mari’s writing is so exciting to read, she brings her story to life on every single page and I adore her work. I cannot wait to read more from her in the future and I certainly recommend this 5-star book to other readers!

Another wonderful read from this author. This is the first time that I have read one of her longer children’s books and it was great. A lovely introduction to chapter books for children. The story was fun and easy to follow with so many opportunities to encourage children’s imaginations. The illustrations that accompanied the story were well drawn and thought out – they added an extra depth to the book by bringing some of the story to life. Craig and Linda had a great sibling relationship and I enjoyed following their story as they tried to uncover the mystery of the Loch Ness monster and try to find her. Beneath the story are some important messages for the children and this author always does, I love how she weaves these into her stories. This was a great read and one that I would highly recommend for children.

What a wonderful read to start off my 2024 reading journey! I really enjoyed this book; it was easy to read with really lovely characters who were likeable and relatable. I read this story in one sitting as I was so engaged in everything that was going on. I’ve not read anything by this author previously so I will definitely be on the lookout for more of her books to read. The authors wonderful descriptive language really did make me feel like I was right there in Ireland in a bakery at times! Although this is book 2 in the series, I read it perfectly well as a standalone but having met some of the characters now I would definitely like to read book one and learn more about them. I really liked Claire, she is that kind of character that draws you in and you kind of wish she was real as you know she would be a great friend to have. I admired her determination to be what she wanted regardless of her mother wish for a predictable life! She wanted to go after her dreams. Finn was a great character too and I loved this connection these two seemed to have. They had a great genuine chemistry and I was rooting for them from the beginning!

Another wonderful book in this series and I love that it helps children to learn how to be respectful to dogs and helping to keep themselves safe as well. The story is well written and accompanied by beautiful illustrations. I read these books with my little boy who loves them for their rhyming content. I think that they are lovely engaging stories and the characters CJ and Lora and their lovely dogs Porter and Midge are really loveable. I really enjoy these stories and think they are a great addition to any child’s bookshelf!

This isn’t my usual genre to read and I honestly wasn’t sure whether I would enjoy this book or not but I was genuinely intrigued by the synopsis so thought I would give it a go. It was an interesting read and the authors attention to detail was amazing. The characters in the story were intriguing and the storyline very unique. It certainly made me think about a few things! This is the first book that I have read by this author and although maybe not my complete cup of tea I would definitely like to read the next book.

What a story to finish my 2023 reads with. I loved this story from beginning to end. It was exciting, dark, dangerous and so much more. I have to say I LOVED Ava! She was so fun to read about. She was not going to lie down and take whatever King threw at her, she definitely had a backbone and stood up to him. King is one of those characters that you know you shouldn’t like but can’t really help it – he is dark and he is absolutely a villain – he is not a nice person but his protectiveness of Ava to some extent makes him a little bit likeable. The cliff-hanger at the end has me eagerly anticipating book 2!

This duet contains two absolutely amazing reads. The author’s writing is so captivating you can’t help but carry on reading long after you really want to stop. The duet contains Auctioned and Relentless.
Auctioned
It’s been a long time since I struggled to review a book, I sat here for ages trying to think of the words to do this story justice and I really cannot find them. Auctioned is hands down my favourite read of 2021! I already knew I would love it because I love this author but I was completely hooked from beginning to end – I almost wish I hadn’t read it because I would love to go back and read it again for the very first time. I 100% adored and loved Damian – he was everything I wanted from his character and more. The chemistry between him and Bryanna was off the charts! I loved reading about them and wanted more after the story had ended! There was so much to this story that I was so invested in it and the characters. A truly beautiful read. I cannot recommend this book and the series enough – they are all amazing reads and I just completely adore this author and her amazing writing!
Relentless
This was a phenomenal read! I adore this author and think I’ve given 5 stars to all of her books but this one was just amazing. I was hooked from beginning to end and I actually cannot wait to re-read it again and that is something I rarely do! I just loved Dereck and Layla, their story was just so exciting to read so many twists and turns I literally couldn’t put it down, I needed to find out what was going to happen next on the turn of almost every page. They had such a great chemistry too, that definitely made for good reading! I can’t wait to read more from this author again! I love her book so much!

Yes!! I loved this story so, so much! I loved the characters, the plot, everything really! Curtis was exactly as I wanted to be, however with what he witnessed we begin to see a little bit of vulnerability creep in. How amazing was Lina! She is my favourite character! She’s fierce, independent and just an all-round amazing woman!! The connection that these two had was great and I loved the chemistry between the two of them. With a few twists and turns in the story along with amazing characters this story kept me engaged from beginning to end and I would 100% recommend it!

Alam – Review by Katie Matthews
I really loved this read. I was completely swept up in the authors wonderful writing form the very beginning. I love historical romance story – they are absolutely my favourite to read – and this was a great one. I loved the setting for the story, the authors fantastic descriptive language meant I could easily imagine what was going on. The characters of Dorothy and Elias we both so lovely to read about, they were likeable and relatable. A marriage of convenience started their journey together but what follows was so much more. I would definitely recommend A Journey for Dorothy. It was a great read!

Creeden – Review by Katie Matthews
Another great read from this series. I can really imagine the authors target audience enjoying these books. They are a great length and would definitely engage the younger readers imagination. There’s lots going on in these stories but not too much to confuse readers, the story is easy to follow and understand. Lauren is a great main character and I can imagine young readers would engage with her and her friends. This book will certainly enhance a young readers imagination through the ghostly goings on.

Renewed was a great read and I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed the suspense that the author brought into the book, it definitely kept me engaged throughout. The characters were great to read about and were well developed. I really liked Ruby and Hayden, they seemed to have e genuine connection. Ruby was desperate to escape her past and I loved that Hayden stepped up to help protect her after she had helped to save his life. Ive not read anything by this author before but I really enjoyed her writing style so I’ll definitely be looking to read more from her and from this series.
This was a really intriguing and interesting read. I have read books by this author previously so thought I would give this one a go. The main character in the story, Andrea, is a ghost. It was actually a really thought provoking story and for Andrea it was about her looking back on her journey along with Coyote. The author really brings this characters story to life with her wonderful and engaging writing style. Her descriptive language was great as I was taken along with Andrea as she remembered her memories and brought them to life again. A really interesting read and one I would recommend.

Whispered Surrender is a fantastic book containing two amazing stories Wayward and Undercover by the very talented Via Mari.
Wayward
I was hooked from beginning to end with this thrilling and exciting dark mafia read! It had everything I love in a story and more! I was swept along with the characters story and also to all of the places their story took me! The authors writing was beautifully detailed, I could imagine all of the places she was describing. I did feel like I really knew the main characters Jay and Sasha and I was so invested in their story from the past to the present to their future. I have read quite a few books by this author and she never fails to bring me a story that I love but I can honestly say that this one is absolutely my favourite of hers – it was simply an outstanding read! It has gotten me very excited for what’s to come from the series and I cannot wait!!
Undercover
I absolutely LOVED this story! It is yet again another amazing read by the very talented Via Mari! I was hooked from beginning to end and I could not put it down at all! I loved Marenah and Matt! Their story was definitely full of action and a lot of steamy moments! I love how Ms Mari has intertwined characters from her other two series into this new one – although it is not necessary to have read them this book reads perfectly as a standalone. I thought Marenah was a fantastic character, so strong, independent and she could definitely hold her own when it came to it! I loved reading about her! I think I fell in love with Matt pretty much straight away! There was just something about him, so genuine and likeable. The moment that Marenah and Matt met I just knew (and hoped) that there would be something between them, apart from the attraction and chemistry there seemed to be something a little deeper there. I am really looking forward to reading more from this series and as always this author! I 100% recommend this amazing read to others!

Raining Fish and Frogs is another interesting children’s book from Lois Wickstrom. Its an introduction to different weathers but in a fun and engaging way for children. The story is accompanied by some beautiful illustrations that are sure to capture children’s interest from the start. There’s a great science project at the end of the book too – something we’ve come to expect from this author. I’m sure little enquiring minds would be wanting to find out more about whether a tornado can in fact suck up fish and frogs!

Murky Murder was a fun cozy mystery read and one that I really enjoyed. I haven’t read anything by this author previously but I definitely will be reading more from her. I really liked Ivy, she’s a great character. The authors writing was really engaging to read and the descriptions of the hotel really helped me to imagine what I was reading. There were so many twists and turns in the story which I loved as it kept me entertained from beginning to end. Ive not read many cozy mystery books but I can definitely say this was great and I’ll be exploring the genre more in the future and absolutely reading more from this author again.

This was a really nice read and full of such positivity. The story is aimed at Asian boys as the title suggests but I think if read in a setting all of the children who might listen to this could benefit from some of the positive messages that come across in the book. The story is beautifully illustrated and would definitely capture the interest of young children.

This was a really nice, relaxed read and one that I really enjoyed. This is the first book that I have read by this author and I will definitely be looking forward to reading more from her in the future. Andy and Anne were lovely characters to read about. Andy was so sweet in the way he went about trying to court Ann, I loved the innocence in the letter writing and how their relationship developed through this. This was a lovely, heart warming story and one that I would recommend.
I just absolutely loved this book! I think it is so important for children to feel positive about themselves from a young age and I loved all the positive affirmation in this book. it was presented in such a lovely way, with beautiful, bright, colour illustrations. The collage of positive affirmations at the end of the book was lovely. I would definitely make this book one that I read regularly with my child so they can practice positive affirmation from an early age.

Baking a Bicycle is another lovely children’s book in the Invisible Magic Wand story. Caspian and his Grandpa introduce us to another magical story where Caspian wishes for a bicycle for his unbirthday. Together Caspian and his Grandpa bake a bicycle and have a magical adventure on it. I love how these stories will capture children’s interest and introduce them to magical ideas. The story is easy to read and the illustrations are bright, colourful and engaging.

This was such a great read, I’ve read a few books by this author now and I really enjoy the stories she creates. I never really seemed to like Cozy Mystery books but this author has definitely changed my opinion about them. Genie and her ghostly great-great Aunt definitely make me laugh during their newest adventure to Italy. I was thoroughly entertained the whole way through. The author has a wonderful writing style that keeps you entertained the whole way through the book and makes you want to keep turning the pages to see what happens next. I am really looking forward to the next book from this author!

Christmas Cove was a really sweet Christmastime read and one that I really enjoyed. The characters America and Leo were such lovely people and I really took them both to my heart – I thought that they were both likeable and relatable. Alongside the main characters were some really fun and entertaining secondary characters who really added something extra to the story. The story definitely made me think of a Christmas movie and I love that it had that feel. Overall I really loved this book, it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and definitely got me in the Christmas mood! I’ll definitely be looking forward to reading more from this author again in the future.

This was such a lovely read and a great way to introduce young readers to new and exciting genres. I liked that the book was also introducing chapters to children and would encourage them to read a chapter a night before bed maybe. The story was easy to follow with delightful characters that will definitely be great for children to begin those first connections with. This reminds me of the books that I enjoyed when I was younger. With the mystery surrounding the missing mail to will certainly get children thinking about the outcome of the story. A wonderful read and one that young readers are sure to enjoy!

I was drawn into this book straight away when the action really does kick off as soon as it starts. I really enjoyed the book overall and thought that it was a great introduction to this new author! Her writing style was great, really engaging, easy to read and the characters were brilliant. I liked Joy I thought that she was a sweet, kind and relatable person. All (well majority) of the characters in the story were really sweet and relatable. I loved the setting and time period for the story – historical romance is my favourite genre so to find this book was great and added in is that bit of Christmas magic and it was a perfect book for me! I can’t wait to read more from this author again in the future.

Creeden – Review by Katie Matthews
I absolutely loved this journal! It was so accessible and just an absolutely joy to have as part of my wellbeing. I love journaling – over the past 12 months especially I have found that using something like this has enabled me to work through problems and come out the other side. The prompts in the book make you stop and think about your life and also when you are feeling like you are in a better place it’s so good to be able to look back and see how far you have come. I loved being able to fill in the beautifully illustrated pages. I loved the positive affirmations, they are so important to remind yourself of something positive everyday even when you feel like everything is negative around you. For anyone who find it easier to write out feeling than talk about this then I would 100% recommend Finding Your Heart – it would make a fantastic part of your metal wellbeing journey!

Another amazing book in this series – 8 books in and each one just gets better than the one before. I think this was probably my favourite of the series so far, even though I’m pretty sure I’ve said that after finishing each book. I was very taken with Master Sardinia, he was so dark, dangerous and oh so delicious! The dual POV provides a real depth to the story and the characters, you really do get to see things from both sides. I loved the connection between the characters and there was definitely a fair amount of passion and chemistry between them! I really cannot wait to read the next book! Whilst these books could be read independently I would 100% recommend reading them in order!

What a lovely book and so, so important in my opinion! Working in animal rescue it is so important for us that children are able and know how to be safe around dogs and know how to interact appropriately with them so I love that this story focuses on that and is told in such a way that is easy for children to understand and hopefully be able to relate to. There is a really important message behind this story and the author address it really well. I think this story definitely has a place in children’s libraries!
