Decisions Matter by Suzanna Lynn is the 3rd book in the Blue Corgi series and teaches children the importance of telling the truth and making good decisions. When someone keeps getting into the trash at Buddy’s house, his owners find Buddy at the scene and assume it’s him. This story shows his dilemma over not being believed when he was telling the truth, and also how important it is to always tell the truth. This was a wonderful way to teach children. It kept my littles interested and explained the life lessons in a sweet and simple way for them. Definitely recommend.

Now Trinity returns back to her home after reaching and achieving her goals of becoming Rodeo Queen.

Having read the previous books in the series, I can say that this book is like one big epilogue. Technically, you could read it, and it would make a fairly complete story, but you wouldn’t feel as much of a connection to the characters. I highly recommend reading the others first.
This book gave me a bunch of conflicting feelings. There’s an author’s note at the beginning and it gives context for the stories contained within. Where the other books in the series give you more of the HEA vibes at the end, this book… it kind of ends bittersweet in some ways.
I won’t get into the details of what happens so as not to ruin it for other readers, but I will say, Mallory is not my favorite person. How could she???? And I know reality isn’t a fairytale ending, but dang. That part just made me sad for Eleanor. Point being, you have to be in the right headspace to absorb this book, because it edges on more real-to-life happenings.
That being said, the writing and stories are expertly executed. I think that’s why it’s so emotional. The point of art is to make you feel, and this book certain delivers.
Gardella weaves several important themes into the story, making it an excellent choice for classroom discussions or bedtime reading. The theme of perseverance is prominent, encouraging children to keep striving despite obstacles. Fairness and the importance of playing by the rules are also key messages, highlighted through Angela’s respectful and determined approach to the contest.
Courage is another significant theme, with Angela standing up to Bruce and showing that believing in oneself can lead to success. This aspect of the story provides a powerful message for young readers, demonstrating the value of self-confidence and integrity.

Decisions Matter: A Picture Book About Learning Right from Wrong by Suzanna Lynn continues the charming adventures of Buddy the Blue Corgi and his canine companions, Donut and Salem. In this third installment, Buddy finds himself in a sticky situation when a mysterious trash bandit wreaks havoc in the kitchen, and he’s wrongly accused of the mess.
Lynn’s narrative beautifully intertwines humor and a valuable life lesson about honesty and integrity. The plot is engaging, with Buddy’s dilemma of not wanting to be a tattletale adding an extra layer of depth to the story. This conflict is relatable for young readers, who often grapple with the challenge of speaking up when they know the truth but fear the consequences of being perceived as a snitch.
The illustrations are, as always, a highlight in the Buddy the Blue Corgi series. Lynn’s art style is vibrant and expressive, bringing Buddy and his friends to life with a playful, colorful palette that captures the attention of young readers. The visual storytelling complements the narrative, making the moral lesson both accessible and engaging.

This was such a cute book. The book is about a group of kids during a pig wrestling contest. They are all running around trying to catch a slippery muddy pig. Angela, the main female character wants to win the pig but she has a few challenges first. Bruce, the main male character being one of them. He’s a bully and he’s after her prize! Throughout the book you see kids give up for various reasons. Not Angela. She is standing up for herself and she wants that pig! She jumps on the pig and he squooshes from under her. As he goes Angela gets poked in the eye. It doesn’t stop her as she stalks Bruce and the pig more. Bruce tried to push her, but she pushes him back and jumps for the pig again. With a black eye she holds tight to the bucking squealing pig. Will she win?? Or will Bruce be the victor?? Grab this book to find out!! It is so cute. I love the illustrations too. It’s very well done and it helps kids learn the importance of perseverance and standing up for one’s self. We’ve raised a few pigs so we know just how spunky they can be. Such a fun book for younger readers. Great for 1st Libraries too!!

What a sweet book about learning right and wrong. It’s always hard to make good choices. My grandson really enjoyed this one. I’ll be getting my other grandchildren a copy of this. I love the fact that it’s dogs and cats because its easy to relate to. It’s an entertaining story.

Author Suzanna Lynn is a happily married, full-time mother of three beautiful, energetic children, and lives in a small town nestled in the deep rolling hills of Missouri.
Growing up in the Ozarks, Suzanna spent her childhood wandering the fields and woods surrounding her home. While most children avoided the dark corners of the woods, she sought them out; imagining them to be filled with fairies, dragons and all number of creatures.
Having not lost her childhood imagination, Suzanna has written numerous poems, songs and short stories that won various awards in high school and college. Her dream was to, one day, be an author.
In 2014 she decided to stop wishing she could publish a book and made the dream a reality when she released The Bed Wife.
That first novella gave birth to two more books, completing the series, and stirred the embers of her five-book series called The Untold Stories. She has since published stand alone novels, and has published several children’s books.
When she’s not busy writing, illustrating, or spending time with her family, Suzanna loves to travel, go horseback riding, and growing flowers. She also has been known to volunteer with her children’s school, the Ladies Auxiliary, and even her local zoo!

This was the first book by this author, but I couldn’t pass it up after the cover caught my attention. After reading the synopsis, I knew I had to dive in immediately. I’m a huge fan of the horror and thriller genres which meant this was right up my alley. Throw in a paranormal twist and I’m in heaven! From the very beginning, the author subtly drew me in and before I knew it I was reading the last page. I couldn’t put it down because I had to know what was going to happen. The plot is expertly crafted with twists and turns woven seamlessly throughout. No matter how well I thought I had it nailed down, the author threw another surprise curve at me! I don’t want to give away any spoilers but will say that this was a magnificently dark book. I have already recommended this book to all of my old school horror-loving friends. If you enjoy a suspenseful thriller with a paranormal theme, I highly recommend giving this book a chance. I can’t wait to pick up more work by this author!

Andrew’s Armor by Jill Monaco. This is such a cute book and my 6 year old nephew loved it. Its the story of a young boy named Andrew who has a toy chest full of fun stuff and his favorite is his “armor” which is a helmet, shield and sword. When he has these things on he feels like he can do anything and everything with any problems whatsoever! One day when he has his “armor” on he gets hurt and he no longer believes in the magic of his “armor”. This brings about the bible part of the story. It teaches kids that they have to believe with faith that they will be protected and God will protect them. I absolutely loved this book and the fact that it had a religious touch made it even more special! Go get this book for all the young children in your life. You will be so glad you did!
This modern story is told from the perspective of our protagonist, Bella. After 12 years of marriage, Bella finds herself newly single and feeling lost. She decides that she wants to begin her new life and tries dating casually, using dating sites. Through her many encounters, she begins to understand and appreciate herself more. I found myself eager to read each new chapter, happily rooting for her to find everything that she wanted. The reader is given a pleasant and seamless blend of stories as Bella builds a new life. It’s a story of self discovery, adult friendships, heartbreak, and even just a enough relatable trauma. The spice level isn’t anything too extreme, especially for long time readers of romance, but there is definitely lots spice.
I very much enjoyed reading this book, and found myself pretty happy with the ending. If you’re looking for a story with a fairly relatable female lead, interesting characters and some spice, I’d recommend giving it a read.

Wilde – Review by April Rose
I’m not a big fan of horror thrillers but I found this to be a real page turner. Josh and his loyal dog return to his small hometown after some disappointments and mishaps at college. However, Midnight Falls is not the pleasant town he remembers from his childhood. Josh feels like an outsider now and there is a sinister evil feel about the place. He believes there is something dark and chilling going on and doesn’t know who he can trust. Josh is also ‘butting heads’ with the sheriff who seems to have a grudge against him. As Josh is deciding whether to stay or run, the monster lurking in the dark might not let him live long enough to make his decision. This story had a sinister and chilling atmospheric feel to it, which made me feel immersed in the storyline. The plot kept me hooked and I felt the characters and setting came to life through the descriptive narrative.

Everyone is special and everyone is different! The art in this book is so beautiful and eye catching. I love reading about Buddy and his friends on the farm. The books about Buddy are so special because of the Bible verse that goes along with the story. This one was beautiful, Buddy’s mom Maddie teaching him that just because he is different looking than his sisters and brothers doesn’t make him weird, or any less special than anyone else! God knew you before you were formed!

This one made me a little teary. I get sensitive when it comes to animals feeling unloved. Buddy’s brothers and sisters get adopted before him which makes him feel like nobody wants him. His mom lets him know, it’s not his time yet, and Buddy immediately gets excited waiting for his forever family to come choose him, and when they do the moment is so sweet. The Bible reference here is perfect and really is beautiful when you think about it, you may think you are unworthy, unloved, or have no hope while waiting but God has plans specifically for you.

This is thirteen sexy books in one complete series. It follows the story of Bella who recently found out her husband (Mr. Wimp) has cheated on her after twelve years of marriage. Now in her 30’s she starts dating again. Quickly she finds out the dating scene has changed a lot since in the past twelve years. Bella loves a good glass of wine and a steamy romance book, and she wants to find a man like she reads in those books. Going through the motions of one-night stands and guys who only want one thing, she quickly finds out it’s not as easy as the books make it out to be.
I enjoyed reading the story of Bella and going along with her as she tries to find Mr. Right. She’s been married for so long she forgot who she was before she married Joel (Mr. Wimp). She has wonderful friends and co-workers who help her find herself along the way. It’s a steamy romance that you won’t want to put down.

This one is filled with action and suspense! I really enjoyed it! I highly recommend reading the series in order to get the most out of this story. We see a lot of characters from the past as the series is winding down. I liked that the author spent more time on figuring out how to stop the traitors instead of on the sex life of the two mc. They had a quick connection and thankfully others spotted it and helped them out. I like the friendships that have been built in this series. Looking forward to Lucas demise.

This is a good book that has a lot of action and suspense. I have mixed feelings about it since I did not read book 1 in the series. I highly recommend doing that first as this one has many references and carryovers to book 1. The characters are interesting. They all (well most) have unique powers that is fun to figure out. There are a few humans in here as well. I get they need a special trait to make them more but in here the character Ruiz repeatedly said the word “Chica” much to my annoyance. It looks like they are gearing up for more in this series. I am curious how relations will end up between a few character and what could happen next in the world.

I was hooked from the beginning and had a hard time putting this down. I loved Evan’s writing style and the pacing of the book was fantastic. He really allows you to get a feel for the characters and pulls you into the story and before you realize it, it’s the wee hours of the night and you’ve got to get some sleep! I loved the dark, creepiness of the tone and the downright scariness of it as well. There are so many twists and turns throughout this story that you don’t see coming. This is the perfect read for spooky season so get your copy now!

I read Deceptively Yours and loved it, so you know I had to read Forbiddenly Yours! This book has such good tropes: TeacherxStudent, secret relationship, forbidden love, and the spice *muah!* Chefs kiss! When I say this book is spicy… it is spicy!!! There is no waiting for it either, which is the best part!
Nicole- Father, uncle, and brother are all Titans and know about the world. She has a hot and steamy one-night stand with Callum in Costa Rica thinking she wouldn’t see the person again. When she enters her English lit class the teacher just so happens to be Mr. One Night Stand and the mind f*cking starts, pun intended! She pushes his button in many ways from being argumentative to making him jealous by getting too close to a classmate.
Callum- Titan who is in his second year as a teacher at the college Nicole transfers to. At first he tries to push his thoughts about Nicole away, even telling her it can’t happen again and demanding she drops his class, but that ends up going all down the drain. Even though he knows he can’t publicly claim her, he doesn’t want anyone else to either.
This was such a great read that I couldn’t put the book down! I can’t wait until the next book in the series comes out!!!

Forever to Fall by Libby Kay, is the 5th book in the buckeye fall series. This is an Amazing book, Beckett is a funny relatable guy who is messy, clumsy, funny, and very relatable. Mallory is very much a homebody and is very much obsessed with French bread pizzas. Together I got to deep dive into their friendship and story on how they met each other and became friends. Their relationship that had some bumps. Libby masterfully weaves this story together and created an amazing story making me laugh out loud on multiple occasions and I may have kicked my feet, it’s so cute. And as cute as it was sometimes I wanted to shake them, Libby got me so engrossed in the story I found it very difficult to put down and I would read it again.

Great short story. Doesn’t take very long to read but does have a decent amount of description. The story progresses fairly quickly but still keeps you interested. It’s fated mates with a twist. It follows a war between rogue vampires and shifters against other vampires, shifters, and witches. It mentions the underworld and the way vampires become vampires includes a trip to the underworld upon death. It does have some smut so read your triggers.

This is a complete series of 13 novellas all in one place. This follows Bella along on a journey to discovering herself after divorcing her husband after he cheated on her. There is so much going on here that I don’t even know where to begin to explain. Bella is trying to gain her self-esteem back and she is working on it with all she has. This is the perfect book to help you learn how to overcome your own insecurities and help you learn to put it all on the line to discover who you really are, to heck with what others may think.
I adore this series and I hope you will give it a shot.

Wilde – Review by Kelli Harper
This is definitely only for those over 18 due to the many scenes of an adult nature, including some which could be classed as triggering.
Bella is a woman on a mission, she has just found her husband cheating on her and now she is on the road to a divorce, but being in her thirties, Bella is not sure about how to even date in this modern world. She does however, have a circle of best friends who have a bit of experience and so she dives head first into the world of online dating and everything that comes with it.
Here is where we meet the 12 Mr Right Now’s and the steamy reawakening that Bella discovers with each of them from the boring, to the nice and to the kinky, there is a man for every taste she may have while she figured herself out. The ride is not a smooth one though and some of the most enlightening moments aren’t exactly the best ones, but you have to take the good with the bad right?
This is a very steamy set of romance novellas where one woman finds herself through a journey of self discovery and all the highs and lows associated with it, so prepare yourself for a wild ride and a lot of spice!

L. Wilde. – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.
Bijou Augustine is a woman who is struggling to keep her life and business together which has become harder each year since she lost the love of her life, but now she is reaching breaking point. As the youth centre she has poured her heart and soul into becomes more of a burden than a blessing, she has to endure the embarrassment of cold calling for donations and suffer the rejection which people dish out without a care for the person on the other end of the phone.
While she is dealing with this, her teenage daughter is full of the joys of puberty including mood swings and arguments, but there are beams of light when she sometimes says the odd nice thing or comes up with a good idea. Fortunately for Bijou, her daughter finally takes some initiative and this helps more than she could ever expect when a phone call comes through with a deep, rumbling voice at the other end who just so happens to also be a repair man.
This one phone call could be the answer to her prayers, especially when she meets this mountain of a man for the first time and is immediately put at ease by his agreement to help out with fixing up the youth centre. The only issue is that he doesn’t want any money for it, this is compounded by the fact that he is the first man that Bijou has even found attractive since her husband passed, but she is awkward and can sense that he is healing too.
Will Bijou be able to save her centre and figure out how she feels about her tall, dark and extremely handsome repair man, all while trying to come up with a plan to save her and her husband’s life’s work? This is a sweet romance with a little spice thrown in where secrets come into light as prayers for the end of struggles are made, all while hope blossoms in this story of finding love after loss.
