This is not my first read by Lois Wickstrom, I think her books are very entertaining, short reads for children of all ages. This one, Dream-shifter is geared towards the older adolescents, but is without a doubt a great story! Imagine waking up and you are the animal that you were dreaming of!! Gwendolyn is a dream-shifter, she transforms into any animal when she is asleep but turns back into her human form as long as she isn’t startled awake. Well, one night all of that changes and a fire at Gwendolyn’s home startles her awake and she finds herself stuck waking up as an elk. And despite Gwendolyn’s best efforts, she is stuck as an elk for quite some time, will she ever change back into her human form, or will she forever be stuck wondering around as an elk?? Lois Wickstrom definitely covered suspense, adventure, and great character building!

Earl – Review by Cindy Mayberry
Borrowed Time by Lane Cohen is a creative science fiction story filled with details from science, classic sci-fi, history, anything you can think of time travel related, it’s in this book! I really enjoyed the way that Cohen made such interesting characters whose pasts and concerns really built up the plot. This novel really makes you ask the ultimate time travel question – if you could change the past, what would you change? And would that be the right thing to do? Is it really necessary to try to change the past to fix the future? The novel is about a physics professor Andy Case and his student Samoset Brown are both interested in time travel from an academic perspective, and for Case it provides an interesting discussion topic for his otherwise unenthusiastic class. Let’s just say that they bit off more than they could chew when they stepped into the realm of time traveling. This is a great read for time travel fans!

I really enjoyed this romantic comedy story. It was a great read and reminded me of the days when I would have sleepovers with my friends. The author does a great job with the characters. Each one is an individual but they always work and look out for each other. Their connection is so strong and nice to read. You really get a sense of their friendship.

This book has references to some of the most iconic Rom Coms out there. You’ll meet Lisa and her friends and realize that their monthly rom com club is AMAZING.
For someone that hasn’t ever felt like she had a family, Lisa is about to embark down a heartfelt and warm path.
Very cute story and gets the reader all up in their feelings.

This book is book two of the series but can be read as a standalone.
Candi was sure she’s already met her soulmate. Now he’s gone. She just isn’t meant to love anymore. There’s no way there could be anyone to make her feel the way she did. That is until she meets Enzo. Enzo spots Candi across the room and knows she’s beautiful. Nothing can happen though, he doesn’t do relationships. Will these two be able to work through their hang ups or is there really just one soulmate after all?
I enjoyed this book! The chemistry between Candi and Enzo is off the charts. I was rooting for them the whole time! Definitely worth a read!

Join in on this jaw dropping realistic post-apocalyptic fiction that will have you questioning every item of food you eat and every person involved in manufacturing your food.
Book 2 starts off 2 years after the initial outbreak after genetically modified food caused mutations in the human DNA. Genies are becoming organized under Balthazar and and desperately want to grow their numbers and control, consequences be damned.
Good vs Evil, intense page turning action drama, death, illness, sinister intentions and exquisite well researched science fiction will grip you and make you question everything you know….and make you want to start a garden 😂
This series is incredible post apocalyptic fiction (but so realistic) and I cannot wait to see how that ending turns out in Book 3. I was definitely immediately going “I have to know what happens! ” Don’t miss this series!!!

Master Catteneo is in charge of bringing the Overmaster’s mate back home after she is taken by her own sister out for revenge. Catteneo goes to a local psychic named Ezra to see if she knows the whereabouts of said mate when he is greeted by Alessia, the granddaughter of the local psychic. Ezra getting up in age suggests that Alessia go with Catteneo.
Instantly they start off on the wrong foot. Being a master vampire, Catteneo is used to being submitted to but he will not get that from Alessia. She is sassy, stubborn and independent. The Overmaster insists that the two be stuck at the hip until they can find his love.
Both of the main characters are used to working alone but in order to get the missing person back they have to put aside their differences and their fantasies aside and work together.
This is book 5 of the Masters of the Consulate book but can technically be read as a stand alone without much trouble. The only thing I had difficulty with was some of the history of the background characters. This is also the first book I have read of the series and I must say that I am intrigued to read the previous books in the series. The book was action packed, romantic with a little bit of steam, and had great characters.

Bishr and Nialla are specialists in space travel, they have been through all the training and now have been in charge of their own ship the Metronome for years transporting cargo and people across the universe for a fee, they make a brilliant team with Bishr being a comms genius and Nialla, a whiz with physics, sometimes she is even known as a savant, she is just that good. They love the freedom which comes from traversing wormholes and jumps between the 400 habitable planets, as well as the 30 which are in the “gration” process and they want to continue to live, laugh and love in their own time.
As they are flying towards their next destination, everything seems to be going to plan until Bishr ill and Nialla has to both look after the other and the ship, this is not easy as there are only the two of them, but somehow they manage. As he recovers, Bishr goes through the correspondence and highlights one message in particular about a Stratum Three planet which is going to be listed as open for gration, he finds the images of the clouds scudding over the surface of the planet relaxing and so saves the skim for later, however, as they are discussing it, the jump they are planning goes wrong.
Nialla and Bishr encounter some issues and between the calcs, the dishes and their superluminal flight, they have to make some decisions which will not just affect them, the shadows which these decisions cast over the rest of the known universe will also come into play, but what will happen and can their love, work, laugh and love mantra keep them safe, or will their unplanned discovery, the history of their parents legacies and the future of mankind in space rip them apart? This is a dystopian sci-fi of universal proportions as split second decisions mean the difference between life, death and everything in between, in this race to calculate, formulate and experiment with unknowns runs its course, in this new and immersive reality.

R. P. Fogg – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.
I was pleasantly surprised reading this book. The author does a very nice job of setting you into biblical times. I love that there is a bit of an understanding brought to me as a Christian of how and WHY the people of that time would be hesitant to believe in Jesus! I love that the author brings you into the outside world while the ending of Jesus’ life on earth is happening. I really enjoyed this quick read and was definitely left wanting more of this great read!

Albert is a turkey and lives on a turkey farm, he knows that he will probably be eaten at thanksgiving like all of the other turkeys there, but he doesn’t want to be, which turkey would?
So when a family start to look at him, he knows what is coming, so he does everything he can to change their minds. While he is thinking of what to do, he sees on a tv in the shop, that the President has pardoned his thanksgiving turkey, can he get this family to do the same for him and let him live in Turkey Pardon Park for the rest of his days?
This is a story which has an interesting premise and is done in a way that is fun and educational all at the same time, a good book for young and old alike.
Janet Fogg is a master of visualization through words and emotions. This book was tragic and beautiful and harsh and hopeful. It took an emotional ride through a tragic historical time we’ve all heard about and made it somehow more human. I could not put it down. Highly recommend.
Samantha Shannon has done it again! This book was SO MUCH FUN! I have a cat who is very much like Lucas. His adventures and his friends are just what I imagine my cat to be. The illustrations really bring the words to life and the cadence of the story is very smooth. Coupled with the activities at the end of the story, this is another book that really delivers a good time!!

Foster – Review by Charlisa Wahtomy-Alba
WOW! After reading the blurb, I knew I’d be engrossed in this book. The idea of multiple potential stories told throughout the book captivated me, and so did the book itself. Dramatic, emotional, a wonderful psychological thriller.
Catherine’s daughter Susie fell to her death in an accident in Crete. Nothing has ever felt right about it to her, and so Catherine decides to travel to Crete herself and see if anyone can remember anything that may help her “solve the case” and gather some closure. After speaking to several employees of the different areas in Crete, Catherine has gained the courage to approach Susie’s friends and boyfriend to help her piece together what could have happened.
As Catherine winds her way through the events, she comes to a startling realization – she didn’t know her daughter as well as she thought she did. Was she ignoring Susie’s shortcomings because she was blinded by love? Was she not aware because she was neglectful? This is an emotional journey and brings to mind “be careful what you wish for.” There are unpleasant discoveries and revelations, some things better left unknown.
The 10 possibilities weaving known scenarios together was an awesome approach and I found them each to be coloring my opinions on who was responsible. Even with all of the well written suggestions of what happened to Susie, the end surprised me. I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish. Bravo!

This is book one in the series. The front of the book has a map of Patchogue which is helpful to orient the reader during the story. Murder on Oak Street has proved to be a well-woven and intriguing historical crime and investigation story. A murder mystery that keeps the pages turning and wondering who committed the crime. The author holds the readers attention through wonderful dialogue and scene description. I enjoyed reading this first book in the series and look forward to the next! Review by @bilberrysweet

Foster – Review by Brandy Vaughn
If you love a good mystery full of plot twists, this one is for you! The author keeps you guessing right up until the very end, which will keep you engrossed in the story.
Daniel O’Halleran is tired of people overlooking theories and facts regarding murders. What point is there in working a case if they are going to come to the conclusion that they want regardless of the actual events? When his fiance stands him up at the altar, Daniel knows it’s time for a change. When he starts looking into a two year old murder case for a new acquaintance, he realizes it’s the first murder he ever worked and nothing seemed right about it to him. Then another murder takes place, practically in Daniel’s backyard and it’s just too uncanny for him.
This is a new-to-me author and I wasn’t sure about this book at first. I’m so glad that I gave it a chance as it’s highly enjoyable, and as previously mentioned, will keep you guessing on the mystery of these two murders.

Foster – Review by Julie Johnson
Amaleigha is an adorable 5 year old girl who wants to change the world. Imagine if 5 year olds ran the world!! There would be all sorts of fun activities and that’s just want Amaleigha wants. She goes off running barefoot through the woods, laying in the grass looking up at the sky, playing in water…she’s become one with nature and loves how it makes her feel. It’s her desire to share that with everyone so one night after dinner, she shares her plan with her family and they wholeheartedly support her.
This is a great book to inspire confidence in a young mind. It also goes to show that you can do anything you set your mind too. This book, while it features a young girl, could also be applied to a young boy as well.

This was such a cute read! It was quick paced, and the characters were extremely lovable. It felt like I flew through this one. I loved the witty banter between the girls, and how fiercely they fight for and love each other. I loved the romance between Ryan and Lisa, it was extremely sweet. I cried a few times, and it was very emotional to me. I’m very glad I picked this one up and I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!

This is the first book I have read by the talented Naomi Valkyrie. While I usually don’t read MM books the original story of the book made me give it a try. In the synopsis it is stated that one paranormal person is selected every ten years for a second chance at life. This cycle it is Quinnlan Trinity, a vampire that was murdered by his greedy sister a couple hundred years ago that is given his second chance. Its officially Halloween when Quinnlan materializes naked in a rundown abandoned motel in the middle of nowhere. Three days in a small family town on the edge of a wolf pack, but a second chance is a second chance and Quinnlan is determined to give it his all to take advantage of the Gods kindness is choosing him. Watching the small town go about their Halloween activities Quinnlan is drawn to a mysterious figure that is walking alone in the dark away from the town. Following them for a short time he catches the scent of three wolves following as well, worried for the seemingly innocent person he continues to follow but from a distance to keep his scent from alerting the wolves. The end of the trail and Quinnlan might be a vampire, but he had never seen a ghost before one appeared before him yelling “HELP HIM” before vanishing again. The mysterious person is laying on the ground badly injured from the warning of the wolves when Quinnlan is faced with a choice. Allow this stranger to die, or give him his blood and save him but putting his fate in the strangers’ hands alone? Quinnlan might be a vampire, but he was always a lover and not a fighter, so he gives his one chance at a second life to save the man, later learning his name is Garrett. Many questions are running through Quinnlan’s mind, who is this man? What is his story? Why was he attacked by wolves? Will he accept my choice to save him, or will I return to purgatory? For such a short read this book left me feeling satisfied, or better yet complete no cliffhangers or lingering what ifs. Not only was the story complete but the original plot has rules, including that the paranormal must tell their chosen mate the truth about the 3 days, everything so that in the end everyone gets to make their own informed decision on what will be the rest of their lives. One of my favorite things was the writer breaking the fourth wall, saying things we were thinking and telling the reader to use their imaginations which added an extra level of humor in some very intense situations. I look forward to reading more work from the amazing mind of Naomi Valkyrie. World building, storyline, writing style is all awe inspiring and enjoyable to read.

Another great book by this author. The characters are well written, the camaraderie of the different masters and their wives make it extra special. I really enjoyed reading Catteneo and Alessia coming together even if Alessia keeps contradicting him. Sometimes we need those people who let us know when we need to be confronted to make things clearer. This is by far my favorite book in this series.

I loved this book so much! Naomi Valkyrie has created yet another mesmerizing story, and I just can’t get enough of it. This paranormal romance is filled with steamy vampires, magic, and plenty of action.
When the gods decide that Quinnlan deserves a second chance at love and life, it sounds like a miracle. Except that there are stipulations to this second chance. Quinnlan has three days to take a mate, or he goes back to purgatory forever. When Quinnlan finds Garrett bleeding out, he has a choice to save him or let him die. If he chooses Garrett and gets rejected, he risks heading back to the one place he doesn’t want to go. Can he really let him die, or will he take the chance for true love?
I am never disappointed by this author’s work, and I’m happy to say that I’m left craving more after reading The Final Bite. I loved every moment of it and highly recommend picking it up for a quick escape!

I loved the spirit of this book. It definitely promotes listening to a young child’s ideas and dreams. A young child is pure of heart and enjoys things we grown ups tend to take for granted. Amaleigha’s idea was marvelous and helped the whole community. This book made me look at the possibilities of just one person’s ideas and making them happen.

I saw a lot of my own daughter in this book. She is like Amaleigha, who likes to explore the seasons. Part of this exploration is going outside without shoes on. She is encouraged by her grandmother who understands Amaleigha. With the assistance of her brother, she builds a park where people can explore barefoot. This book is inspirational because it teaches children the power in believing yourself and illustrates how they should always be working towards achieving their dreams.

Mira and Carl are a sister and brother duo that are the main characters in this story. The two usually like to pick opposite sides f every activity. When they read comics, Carl wants to be the hero. Mira, however, likes the villains more. So one day when they go to the beach, they decide to play these roles. Carl builds elaborate sandcastles as each time his sister finds different ways to try to destroy his efforts. At the end of the day they discover something new. I didn’t really see it coming ahead of time. I think children working in any type of group could benefit from reading this book.

This story is such a unique twist on Norse Mythology! Rather than there be one side trying to cause Ragnarok and the other prevent it, this tale begins after it has already happened. It presents Norse mythology in an all-inclusive way, encompassing all the detail. You don’t need to have any previous knowledge to enjoy the book! The author also works the mythology into the real world quite seamlessly! I didn’t know what to expect but I was very pleased. A good read for sure!
