The Curse of a Faeblood by MK Lorber – Review by Kerry Carr

The Curse of a FaebloodThe Curse of a Faeblood by M.K. Lorber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this magical adventure romance. The character did an amazing job of setting the scenes and the characters. You can really feel the emotions that the characters go through as as the fear and the feeling of constant threat that Ember goes through, to the determination and pride that Gavyn has and his hatred and suspicion when he first meets Ember.

Ember is different. She is a Faeblood which means she has magical powers. However this is one secret that she can never tell. As she grow her mother always told her never reveal your secret and never stay in one place for too long. With her mother passing Ember is now on her own and feeling isolated and lost she tries to protect herself and keep away from harm.
That all changes when she meet Gavyn. Gavyn is an elite fighter who protects his people and especially his sister.
So when his sister offers Ember a place to stay he isnt happy and is very suspicious about who she is and what she wants.

When other people with Faeblood start to emerge from the castle Ember is excited to meet more people like her. Until she realises the danger they are to all the people she had grown to love.
Working together Ember and Gavyn need to protect everyone they care about. Can they work as a team to do this? If Ember is exposed as a faeblood will she be seen in the same light as the faebloods doing them harm? And can a relationship every work between a human and a faeblood.

This story has it all and will keep the reader gripped from beginning to end. It is beautiful to see Ember blossom into a confident woman instead of the shell of a person she is at the beginning.

Toby: The (Mostly) True Story of a Former Bad Dog by Stephanie Wilson Peterson – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez

Toby: The (Mostly) True Story of a Former Bad DogToby: The (Mostly) True Story of a Former Bad Dog by Stephenie Wilson Peterson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Toby is a cute book for kids and adults. I love that it was written from the dog’s point of view. I wish it had more art work, but perhaps that is a downfall of an e-book. I read it to my 6 year old who really enjoyed it. It was a bit long to hold his interest, so we spread it over a couple days.
The cat makes me think of the evil cats from Lady and the Tramp. Teasing the dog to get him in trouble. We laughed a couple times, as Toby is a very snarky and sarcastic little dog. My son felt so sad for Toby when he got in trouble, saying Poor puppy!

Toby: The (Mostly) True Story of a Former Bad DogToby: The (Mostly) True Story of a Former Bad Dog by Stephenie Wilson Peterson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh my goodness how cute is this book! Toby has some mishaps all thanks to a neighborhood cat and his owner keeps calling him a bad dog! Poor Toby! This book is a short chapter book, which is excellent for beginning chapter/struggling readers to start with as the chapters are short, the language is accessible, and the story is engaging! The only thing that may trip up some kids is that he doesn’t call his owners Dad or Mom, rather he calls them HuDad/HuMom ( I’m guessing it’s a play on human but I’m not sure). Other than that will 100% recommend for young readers or readers who enjoy reading children’s literature!

This intriguing book was full of twists and turns and left me wanting more.

I was so excited to pick up a new book by this author. And when I read the description of this story I knew I was going to love it. From the moment I started reading I was completely hooked. The book was well developed and intriguing. I loved how the author made it feel quite exciting and mysterious.
The characters fit with the book so well. They were interwoven in a clever way and really keep your attention. This author has firmly become one of favourites and I never hesitate to pick up a book she was written. This is yet another example of why.

My first read that includes Covid -19 as well as my first read by this Author and I love this book!

The Author has given us a very interesting and engaging plot line and has us rooting for the main character. All characters are introduced well and have their own unique twist to the story.

I really enjoyed the journal entries that are mixed between the chapters, it added to the suspense and twists throughout the book.

This is a great read if you are into crime suspense thrillers, I couldn’t put it down once I started! (I ordered a physical copy of the book before I even got halfway through the ebook!)

This is the first book that I have read from the author, and I was not disappointed. It did take me a little bit to be able to fully understand where the author was going with the story, but once I realized I was hooked.

It was like i had to finish this book to see how it ended. The author was able to bring the world to life. I was able to fell and see everything the characters were. Experience everything through their eyes. I’m excited to see what else this author has instore with this series.

Personally I have never read something by this author before, but this was an interesting read for my first time. This book was full of so many wonderful things, and was overall a great story. While the story and the plot were both fantastic, I did find myself getting lost a couple of times because of all of the different characters and their abilities. But overall it is a well thought out book, with plenty of action, great characters, and more. So if your looking for a complex but interesting read pick this one up today.

Reigning Hearts: The Complete Series (Books 1-5) by KG Fletcher – Review by Katie Stapleton

Reigning Hearts: The Complete Series (Books 1-5)Reigning Hearts: The Complete Series by K.G. Fletcher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The best thing about picking up this series, is as soon as you finish the first, you can continue immersing yourself in a world of romance and quaint towns. The characters are complex yet relatable, and you find yourself identifying personally with traits of each. This is better than Hallmark, with loads of the passion and intimacy! The author perfectly blends conversation with humor and sass. There is just enough heartbreak spattered in to give these characters depth and memorability.

Though I didn’t want the series to end, I can say the final book was my absolute favorite. A Cold Creek Christmas gives me everything I could want. Christmas decorations and music – the description of a winter wonderland – small town feel – and a passionate pairing.

I can’t wait to read more from this author!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It’s all come together now. I am so very glad that I came back and read the first installment in this set. I made the mistake of reading the second installment prior to this one, and it makes a lot more sense now. This author is an immaculate storyteller, and this is one story that you don’t want to miss. It’s completely different than anything else I have ever read, and the characters, the travels, adventures and connections are all sewn up in a few cute packages. I thoroughly enjoy the way that the novel is written in parts, dividing the different stories so that the reader doesn’t get lost along the way.

I felt as though I looked at this life differently after following the friendship of the Traveler and Tristan, and how overcoming your fears, even with a little assistance, can clear your outlook on life and appreciate the little things that are everywhere, every day. I will be going back and reading the second installment of The Traveler, as I’m sure that even more will become clear, and will be an immersive adventure once more. Do set aside time to really dig deep into these stories, as the more you put into them, the more you’ll get out. Highly recommend!

Nite Fire: Exit Strategy is the fifth and final book in this series. This is a Paranormal/Urban Fantasy that I truly enjoyed reading. I’m a huge fan of this author and her style of writing , attention to detail along with amazing characters make for awesome stories. I’m a little bummed that this is the last book in this series, but I’m excited to see what this author brings us next. I highly recommend reading this series in order if you haven’t already started as each book builds off the last one. This series is definitely going on my list of re-reads. I will say this plan on reading this in one sitting because once you start you won’t want to stop till the end. Dahlia’s back and in a race against time while fighting to hold back the dragon within that’s been dying to come out. So I highly recommend reading this fast paced story to find out what happens next. As always I look forward to reading more from this Author .

This is a fun sports romance story. I didn’t realise it was the second book to the series until I was half way through. I haven’t read the first book but I think that it would have been better if I had as I felt like somethings were missing. The storyline is enjoyable and well written with lots of chemistry but I would have liked a bit more steam. I’m definitely going to have to go back and read it and then re-evaluate this one. It is a quick read a brother’s best friend story when the annoying little sister has grown up. I enjoyed that it was written in multiple POV because you get to know more about the characters. This is the first book that I have read by Lauren and I look forward to reading more of her work.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The author continues the tale of Cat and her discovery of the family secret. This time the family is off to Arizona to visit the matriarch, Grandma Ginny, known to most as GG. GG is the daughter of the original baker in the family, Evie. GG holds the answers to all the questions Cat and Robyn have been asking. However, GG lives with Jojo, Cat’s mother’s sister. Cat’s mom, Bridget, and Jojo had a disagreement 15 years ago and have not spoken since. Getting the answers that Cat needs might not be as easy as pie.

Once in Arizona, Cat is faced with many challenges, getting up at 5 to bake with GG, distance from Tobey, GG’s unwillingness to provide answers, a new mystery man, and a Bake-Off for a huge restaurant contract!! While Cat and the family figure out the perfect recipe for the bake-off, Cat explores the town and her heritage through a scavenger hunt meant to provide Cat with clues to the answers that GG will provide once Cat completes the hunt. Hilarity ensues.

This continuation provides answers to some questions but leaves new ones!! Looking forward to the next book in the series! A great read for all ages.

Bake Off (Bake Believe Series Book 2) by Cori Cooper. This was such a fun read. Its the 2nd book in the Bake Believe series and I suggest reading the 1st one to get to know the characters first. This is a fun, imaginative, young adult fantasy read. Its the story of Cat Anderson who loves to bake and in the last book we found out when Cat bakes she has a gift. During this addition Cat’s family travel for the Thanksgiving holiday and end up in the middle of a bake off. Of course there are a few mishaps with the baking but its all in fun. Lots of laughs and a little bit of romance thrown in. Great teenage read!

This is book two in the series about Cat Anderson and her magical baking for YA, and it was nice being back with Cat. Cat is a very likeable and realistic teenager who not only has the usual ‘growing up’ issues, but she has also discovered that, ‘something’ happens when she bakes, something magical. In this story Cat wants to learn more about her ‘gift’, as now she knows what her baking can do but not why or how. To find the answers Cat and her family go on a road trip to the family bakery in Arizona, for Thanksgiving. However, instead of finding the answers to all her questions, Cat finds herself under suspicion and in the middle of a bakery showdown. Cat and Robyn soon learn that reckless baking, emotions and magic is a recipe for disaster. This is a fun and lighthearted read with a quirky and unique storyline, and a great main character in Cat. I was hooked from page one, and I felt engaged with the characters and immersed in the story due to the descriptive narrative. An enjoyable read for both YA and adults alike.

Once again, there are some amazing “family” bakery recipes included in this book that I intend to make some time this year. I love how the author took this story on the road for some laughs, drama, and lots of baking. I couldn’t put this book down and I highly recommend you read it. This is even a phenomenal story to share with the teenage girls in your life because it is so wholesome. I recommend reading the books in order, so you know the story and how this family baking business works on magic to succeed.

I originally started the series listening on Audiobook. I fell in love with audiobooks because of the first book. I knew I had to read book 2 once it was out. This is a great kids book and I think it will show kids the fun of reading, and just the fun of being a kid/teenager. A lot of relatable things happen, and I can myself remember being a teenage girl with hormones and angst.
Cat and Robyn are a lot of fun and as Cat explores this new gift more we see her developing into a whole new girl. They of course have hijinks, crushes, drama, and of course delicious food as they navigate these newly teenage years.

Bake Believe by Cori Cooper

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. Bake Believe is a cute little book. If you like food with a little magic then this book is for you.

Cat is so used to eating frozen food and it doesn’t bother her. Thats until she goes to the pool with her cousin and sees a high school kid with a pretzel. Now she can’t stand the thought of eating frozen foods. The quote I chose for Cat is: “Yeah, I know. But not really. It’s like an extra one, right? Cause it’s the last day of summer. I’ll be here for the real Friday fun night. Can I, please? Just for a little bit? I want to talk to Robyn about something.”

Robyn is Cat’s cousin and best friend. She is excited that her cousin decides that she wants real food. She can’t wait to see what their future holds. The quote I chose for Robyn is: “Well, I’m glad Tia Bridget doesn’t cook. If that means you will come hang out with us more. I love it when you’re here.”

Highly recommended for Kids & Family lovers.

Fate has given them a second chance, but at what cost?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My absolute favorite era of historical fiction is that which surrounds World War Two! This book juxtaposes strong characters with the stereotypical gender-based roles expected of women in this time period. The postwar years bring tumult of a different kind. Our heroine comes full circle, learning to appreciate the family she was born into, yet still maintain her independence. This is a story about a girl who becomes a woman, and along the way learns some valuable life lessons.

Are you a fan of the Amazon show, Just Add Magic?? If so, you’ll love this book!
Do you enjoy baking or watching baking shows? Again, you’ll love this book!

This was such a fun read!! Cat’s going into the 8th grade and it’s the last day before summer vacay ends. She’s at the pool with her best friend and cousin, Robyn. They smell something so deliciously yummy that they can hardly stand it. Then this super cute boy walks by with a pretzel. You know the kind…dripping in butter with those little flakes of salt on it? THOSE kind…irresistible!! Cat goes and buys one but not before running into Tobey. All of a sudden, there’s this spark. Oh, why can’t summer last forever!!

Cat’s mom doesn’t ever bake. They eat frozen food all the time. Robyn’s mom bakes all the time. They live next door to each other but Cat is never allowed to eat at Robyn’s. Why all the craziness around that, wonders Cat? Her mom gets all up in arms anytime she’s offered food at Robyn’s. Then one day she eats at Tia’s house and everything changes….

Can you Bake Believe it??

I loved this book from start to finish!! I love the series I mentioned previously but this book is pretty awesome too! This author has a great way of keeping even a non-baker like myself entertained. I mean, I love to bake and cook but my family doesn’t appreciate my northern cooking style in their southern home. 🙂 My favorite part of this book is the recipes at the end of each chapter. Along with all the helpful hints and tons of humor!! What fun is baking if it’s not fun??

Enjoy this one folks but don’t read when you’re hungry! 🙂

In Bake Off, we continue to read the story of Cat, Robyn, and their family. This book starts off with a trip to Arizona to Spend some time with GG and Josey to learn more about this weird family stuff. Cat and Robyn have had some adventures and now they are coming of age to learn more about why Cat’s mom won’t bake and why Robyn’s mom loves it!

GG and Josey are ready for the town Bake Off. There are several bakeries in town and there is a restaurant wanting to partner with one of them. How can the family restaurant stand out amongst the others? Cat finally enjoys waking up at 5 am to bake with her GG and she’s loving what she’s learning but what sets their bakery apart? And what in the world is up with Josey and the delivery guy?

This story gives you more background from Evie, the family baking matriarch. Cat and Robyn have some fun adventures in baking during this story as well. I found it as equally enjoyable as book 1 in this series.

I highly recommend this to those who love the show “Just Add Magic” as it follows a similar story line. Like Book 1, this one also includes recipes with a lot of humor at the end of each chapter!

Just don’t read this one while hungry!! 🙂
