My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My grandchildren were so excited to hear another mermaid story. Fig, Mia and Trezzie always have fun adventures and teach about science. The lessons about water and ice cubes was fascinating. Hearing about the ice cubes and how they are larger in cold water and smaller in warm water was fascinating and an experiment that we had to try. Reading about Mia’s rescue brought questions about using ice cubes to rescue. Bright pictures and a fun, entertaining story make reading time special. There are so many ways that the story can be used. I’m a fan of the mermaid stories and this one is a winner. Highly recommended for families.

Unchained Memory (Interstellar Rescue Series Book 1) by Donna S. Frelick-Review by Elena Tobar

This is an edge of your seat romance with a sci-fi twist. I’ve never read a sci-fi romance before and I am so happy that I did and that this was my first one. This story absolutely sucked me in from the very first page. Poor Asia randomly loses three entire hours of her life and when she comes to, she realizes that everything that matters to her is suddenly gone. No mother should ever have to go through what she did. On her quest for answers and peace she ends up meeting Ethan who comes to mean so much more to her than simply a psychiatrist. The energy between them both from their very first meeting is magical and I absolutely loved watching them grow closer. There is so much mystery and danger that you never know what will happen next. The ending for this book was beautiful and this is a book that you definitely don’t want to miss.

Forbidden Wolf (The Shadow Chronicles Book 1) by CR Robertson-Review by Elena Tobar

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is such an incredible supernatural romance. I love this book so much! Levi and Tasha are such incredible characters. They’ve been taught from birth to view the other species as the enemy, but during their first encounter, their hearts somehow recognize the truth that they aren’t enemies at all. This is a perfect example of hating what you don’t understand and just how wrong preconceived ideas can be. They’re drawn to each other and can’t resist the other even though it could kill them if they’re found out. There’s so much danger surrounding them and it just seems to continue to get worse. I was on the edge of my seat from the very first page to the last. If the next books in this series are anywhere near as incredible as this one, I cannot wait to read them.

Apocalypse Thoughts (The Pox Series Book 5) by Kendra Griffin – Review by Amanda Gonzalez

Apocalypse ThoughtsApocalypse Thoughts by Kendra Griffin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kella is just trying to live to see another day – even if the day looks more like a horror movie than your typical teen’s life. On a mission to get data to the CDC is one thing, but hiking along the Appalachian Train is a whole other ball game in the end times. If being a teen wasn’t hard enough, Kella’s juggling being moderator in her group as well as trying to stay positive about their chances at reaching their destination while also avoiding ‘Hyenas’ – very dangerous, very sick, people who have a pension for homicide. I really loved reading this story because of the characters and Kella’s hilarious notes! When reading books about the apocalypse, you expect it to be dark and gloomy and full of horror, but this book had more of a comical feel that kept my attention and made the story so enjoyable!

What a lovely way to spend a cool winter’s night by reading such a sweet little historical romance. I really got swept up into this book and could not put it down. I just love historical romances and this book really hit the spot.

The characters are very lovely and written so well. I like how the author is able to balance a bit of drama with the romance and create a lovely world. I love how it is set in the old west. The setting really adds to the story as well. This book is such a nice little romance and the characters have such a personable quality. I like how it has such a romantic ending and I really look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
