🎧 Her Deadly Game by Robert Dugoni @robertdugoni ‏@SaskiaAudio #Thomas&Mercer #BrillianceAudio #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited🎧

I have enjoyed Robert Dugoni’s books from the first one I read and now I wouldn’t think of not reading all his new ones.  Her Deadly Game is the first in a new series, Keera Duggan.  The setting is Seattle, as some of his other series.  In fact, it is the same world, as we […]

🎧 The Heiress at Sea by Christi Caldwell @ChristiCaldwell @TimCampbellVO Profile @BrillianceAudio #LoveAudiobooks  #KindleUnlimited @SnyderBridge4

The Heiress at Sea is set as a stand alone novel and can be read by itself but the heroine is Cassia McQuoid, sister to Myrtle McQuiod in The Duke Alone (sort of a historical romance meets home alone Christmas story). Cassia wants to have an adventure; she is three seasons in and no one […]

🎧  The Maid’s Diary by Loreth Anne White @Loreth @JaneOppenheimer #BrillianceAudio ‏#LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited

Here are your unlikeable characters where it is hard to know who to champion.  The Maid’s Diary spends more time in the character’s heads than with dialogue.  We have the points of view of Kit Darling, the maid,  the elderly woman next door,  Mal, the police detective, Daisy, the pregnant wife, and John, the husband.  […]

I love science fiction and space travel.  I’m not sure if it is the technology which I love, or the fact that since it is so obviously fiction nothing seems over the top or unrealistic. Probably it is the perfect canvas of this type of setting for emotional themes, battles of greed, corruption, and social […]

Read-along & Giveaway Kickoff: Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne @KevinHearne @luckylukeekul @DelReyBooks #BrillianceAudio @PRHAudio #Read-along #GIVEAWAY #LoveAudiobooks

So I am thrilled to actually be getting started READING now.  It’s sad to me I’ve been buying these on audio and wanting to read them for YEARS.  I actually scheduled a Read-along so I can get to them.  It’s a way to commit myself (and my friends.)  Urban Fantasy is my favorite genre. I […]

🎧 Hide by Tracy Clark @tracypc6161 @ChanteMcCormick #BrillianceAudio #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited🎧

I planned to get this from the publisher but since it is in Kindle Unlimited including audio and I had it scheduled for the first week of January, I got it from Kindle Unlimited.  Hide is the first in a new series, Detective Harriet Foster.  I enjoy police procedurals and this one felt authentic with […]

🎧 Behind Closed Doors by Carol Wyer @carolewyer @bronweneprice  #BrillianceAudio #KindleUnlimited🎧  #LoveAudiobooks

There is a real mix of past and present for our main character, Stacey.  She started out with parents more interested in themselves and their relationships than their daughter.  Her attitude was not the best, accordingly.  Her mother committed suicide and she was kidnapped.   She doesn’t remember everything about the kidnapping but she has picked […]

Read-along & #Giveaway: Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne @KevinHearne @luckylukeekul @DelReyBooks #BrillianceAudio @PRHAudio #Read-along #GIVEAWAY #LoveAudiobooks

I chose this series after a poll and discussions with my team and several friends.  These are mostly available at both of my libraries, in both ebook and audio formats.  I’ve only read the first book in this series, twice, and look forward to reading the entire series.  I own all the audiobooks, because Luke […]
