My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed reading and look forward to reading more from her in the future. This is a story that is written with a lot of heart. The author used details that gave the story a realistic feel. The characters are connectable and made the story come to life on each page. This is a story that combines fantasy, life and death. Andy takes on a magical adventure that teaches about letting go and forgiveness. It took me on an emotional roller coaster ride but it was a ride I gladly went on. This is a great story and I highly recommend it.

THE DEVOTED FANTHE DEVOTED FAN by Pamela DuMond
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Devoted Fan by Pamela DuMond is the fifth book in the 21st Century Courtesan series. I thought this book was a brilliant way to conclude the series. I have become invested right from book one and I thought the author did an amazing job of producing great stories through to the end. From the moment I picked up this book I knew I would be reading it in one sitting. I could not put it down and loved every minute of it.
Each book in this series has been well written and developed perfectly. The author has known exactly what pace has been needed to created a strong series and I think it will be one of those series that lasts. I would certainly recommend it to anyone and it won’t be too long before I read all of these books again!

Luce Eterna: Part 1: Book 5, The Luminara SeriesLuce Eterna: Part 1: Book 5, The Luminara Series by S.J. Molloy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luce Eterna: Part 1: Book 5, The Luminara Series by S.J. Molloy is the next instalment of this fantastic series. This is a series that really needs to be read in order as it follows the same characters all the way through and is a continuation of their story.
This book is every bit as dark and intense as the other books but I think I found this on to be the most emotional. It felt like such a tumultuous rollercoaster and I never felt like I knew where the author was going to take us.
This is easily my favourite series of the year so far. It has been gripping from the moment started reading it and I cannot wait to see how this is all going to end. I am already itching to re-read it all from the start! This series is definitely worth your time.

Sleeping Angel (Soul Connection, #2)Sleeping Angel by Nikki Lynn Barrett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book. This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up of hers. This is the second book in this series which I highly suggest reading the first as it is just as great. Her stories pull me in from the beginning and her attention to details give the story a realistic feel. This book is no different. This is a story about Logan, Angel and one accident that changes everything for them. This is a story where guilt and a haunting past come colliding together. This is a fast paced story that has twists and turns that left me turning pages fast to the end. This was a great story and I highly recommend it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the fifth book in this series which I enjoyed. I think this series just keeps getting better and better with every installment. I never hesitate to pick up a book by this author as they are that great. I enjoyed how her writing skills and attention to details pull you into her story from the beginning. This book is no different. It is a shorter book but it packs a punch. The characters are relatable and brought the story to life on each page. This is a story about karma. If you don’t believe in it, you just might at the end of this story. When Wyatt dies, he passes everything he had to our MC of the story. But will she learn there is a price to pay for everything at some point? I enjoyed the growth of this story and how fast paced, engaging it was. It was a great afternoon read. I highly recommend this book and this author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

I absolutely loved this book – I have to say I have a thing for a sexy cowboy so this story was definitely up my street so to speak! I loved Eric! He’d not had the easiest of lives but loved his simple and easy life until it’s jeopardised by a family member. I really felt for him at times and the author did a great job with his character giving him that slight vulnerability – this made me love him even more. I liked Susan too, she was clearly looking to get away from her past life when she meets Eric. Their story definitely had some twists and turns and it is one that I highly recommend.

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!!

Another intriguing read from this author and one that had me engaged from beginning to end. I find Red to be a really great character to read about, he has a great gut instinct when trying to solve the cases he is involved with and the author does a great job at making me as the reader feel like I am right there along Red trying to work out just what is going on. Blood Mug has a brilliant storyline that will keep you guessing until the very end. I definitely recommend this book and series to other readers!

Luminoso (Luminara, #4)Luminoso by S.J. Molloy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Luminoso is the 4th book in the amazing Luminara Series by SJ Molloy. I have absolutely adored this series so far and Luminoso was my favourite of the series up to now. This book is not to be read as a standalone, the series must be read in order. This book, as with the others in the series comes with a trigger warning as it contains dark and highly emotive material.
As I said, this has been my favourite in the series so far. Most of this book takes place in Tuscany and I just love reading about all the family times that Lucca and Lexi have there. Gamily is such an important theme running through this series and we see much more of it in this book as everyone has to stick together against the threat of Michael Parks.
As well as the happy family times, there are also many dark times as Lexi and her mother struggle with their mental health and we also see cracks appearing in Lucca as he struggles to keep everyone safe. He takes everyone’s worries on as well as his own and it’s beginning to affect him.
The finale to this book is amazing and I felt that I forgot to breathe at times. It just has everything. The drama is outstanding and will have you on the edge of your seat.
I cannot recommend this book and this series enough. I have absolutely loved every book so far and I’m so glad that I have the 5th book Luce Eterna Part One on my kindle as I really need to know what’s in store next for Lucca, Lexi and the family.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Tapestry of Worlds Series. It is an action packed adventure from the first page. The author does a great job of mixing Sci fi with paranormal and they work well together. This was the first book I have read but even though its the second in the series I was still able to enjoy it.

The characters are well written and the theme of good verses evil and who will triumph is a story that will keep you gripped from beginning to end.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book continues where from it left off. SJ Molloy’s writing style is such that you really feel everything that Lexi and Lucca go through. The love Between Lexia and Lucca is so genuine and unique. This book is of adult content. It contains strong language, hot sex, and violence so it is not suitable for everyone to read and has many triggers in. This book is a roller-coaster to read.

Such a fascinatingly, cute read! It was full of adventure that ended entirely too soon! The author did an excellent job of accurately describing relationships with people through the eyes of a child. Luella is an extraordinary character with exceptional powers. Her “Gramps” did a wonderful job raising her to make good decisions; even when it was hard. I hope that there will be more stories to come from the world of Storey!

Perfect for 4th graders and up!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a highly entertaining paranormal children’s story. I personally can’t wait to see how and what develops in the next installment. These characters were so entertaining I connected with them from the beginning. In my opinion, the characters brought this story to life. This is written by a mother/daughter author team and THEY DID A GREAT JOB! I found myself flying through this book. It’s aimed at early teen readers, but like the Harry Potter books, this is a great read for all ages. I highly recommend parents sit down and read this book alongside their kids. I will say I would like to see this book come to either a TV or movie screen in the future. I loved it.

This was beyond my expectations. I was hesitant going into this book as I have come across several books that have approached the vampire/wolf relationship saga and was loathe to go there again. Boy, was I wrong. So glad I gave this book a go. The writing style allowed the reader to connect with every single character, as you get snippets from their point of view. I love multiple POV books but this is a first where the point of view swaps several times within a chapter. The ranch style setting was perfectly unique and the mix of shifters, Gods, fae and Egyptian mythology drew me in and kept me entertained to the very end.

5 +++ Stars

I grabbed this book because of the cover and I thought it would be something my grandkids would love. The thing is, I read it, couldn’t put it down, and fell in love with it. Although it is suited for 8 – 12 year olds, this much older reader thought it was such a fantastic story and found herself on the edge of her seat most of the read because it flowed so well that you really had no idea what was going to happen next. I read in one of the other reviews that they were hoping for a series. YES PLEASE, what happens next was something I really wanted to know. It did not end on a cliff hanger but after following the birds for so long I really wanted to know more.

This is my first ever read by this author and I have already mentioned her to my daughters and I will be buying a copy of this for each of my grands! I simply loved this story and the character of Lu was so amazingly written.

I can’t recommend this high enough for any age..it was a fantastic book!

3.5 stars

The Way to Storey by L.B. Anne is set to appeal to ages 9-12 who have a love of mystery and fantasies. The family dynamics are strong and full of love. I felt like there were a lot of unresolved questions and the ending felt a little rushed. With magic and mystery, love and family, secrets and friendships. Luella is fun and, on a journey, to find out just what Storey is.

Apocalypse NOPE!! by Deidre Huesmann is a YA LGBT romantic comedy. This fun and entertaining read is Deidre’s modern retelling of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. This quirky paranormal tale is original in its telling, light-hearted and humorous. This one might just be my favourite of Deidre’s stories to date.

This strange tale will delight readers.

A great collaboration with the author and her daughter. The book itself is extremely well written. I loved that the characters are relatable because all youth go through similar feelings when hitting puberty, or just in general when they do not feel like they are appreciated enough. The book starts us off on a great beginning to lead us on for other books to come, and friendships blooming. This is the perfect book for children 10 and up I believe, but if your child is on a high reading level even younger youth can read it. Don’t mistake this review to mean that adults cannot enjoy this book because I am an adult I got immense reading pleasure from this book.

Our Wicked Lies: A gripping psychological thriller by Glede Browne Kabongo is a psychological thriller. The story started off a little slow, and I thought about giving up, but it picked up and became quite the page turner. With deception and mystery, intrigue, and murder, secrets and lies exposed. The story is told from multiple POV’s which gives the story that much more depth.

You discover your perfect family was not so perfect after all and on your quest to find the truth you stumble on a deadly path.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bake Believe is the first book I have read by Cori Cooper, but I would definitely read more. It was a super cute book, and even tho it is geared toward kids, I enjoyed it as an adult. I think it is a little long for my 11 year old to enjoy, but it is a cute book for those who like reading. It is written from the perspective of Cat, an 8th grader. She has never cooked for real in her life, as everything is microwaved in her home. Her first day of 8th grade lands her in a culinary class, due to a scheduling error. She assumes she will hate it, but turns out she LOVES it. She finds she enjoys baking, and her current crush is in that class, and her group, which is just icing on the cake. See what I did there? You will find lots of that in this book- There are recipes between each chapter, and they are written in the lingo of a teenager- TOTALLY, Super Duper, etc. I found that really fun and look forward to trying the actual recipes from this book.

Luminoso (Book 4 of the Luminara Series) by SJ Molloy was a great read! This book could be VERY triggering for some however, so be cautious when reading not only this book but the whole series. Once you get past all the triggers and pages of sex, the storyline is incredible. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this series however due to some events that transpired in this book, I may not continue this series. But again, besides all the triggering content this series has been really good and I have for the most part really enjoyed reading. I can’t wait to read more from this author in the future, hopefully with some less troubling content involved.

Anthologies are always hard for me to get into because each story is totally different characters and another quick story. In Myths and Legends I did still have this issue because that is how it goes in anthologies but I enjoy reading anthologies to find new authors and experiencing their writing styles. One of the stories takes a look at Egyptian mythology and it’s very rare to see new takes on those stories so it was exciting to come across. I’m always a sucker for anything Greek mythology and Hades related so that was a great moment to discover as well. If you’re looking for new fantasy writers to find this is a great way to find some new ones.
