Ever wonder what came after the ending of a Jane Austen classic? Lucy Knight, a new to me author, not only tackles this tantalizing prospect, but took the challenge of the Austen novel that many have mixed feelings about. Personally, I enjoyed Mansfield Park so I was all kinds of excited to see a rare […]
Guild Codex Unveiled series is a different aspect of the Guild Codex Spellbound world. I thought this was going to be Zak’s story but really it is his and Saber’s stories. I have read all of the Spellbound and Warped series. I would say you can read Unveiled without Spellbound and Warped first but I […]
Jeanie narrates the whole story for us in The Lost Kings. She is very odd but she has had many bad shocks in her life. She’s never really had anyone who cared for her or supported her after her mother died. She ends up with her aunt and uncle, where she lived until her […]
I have not read this author before but I have always been interested. The Couple at Number 9 was a great read in introduction. There is plenty of character development in this family psychological suspense. I really liked the young couple who moved into the quiet cottage which belonged to her beloved grandmother. Tom is […]
Echoes, is the first book the Echoes duology, maybe trilogy I’m not sure but it will twist your head and make you wonder the entire time what is going on, much like this show Lost or The Maze Runner. What is real, what is happening, who can be trusted. Well the short answer is I […]
I enjoy all this author’s series, which combine space opera adventures with romance. In the Starlight’s Shadow series, there is a new couple in each book. The style is urban fantasy with an overall story arc through the books. Eclipse the Moon sets up the next book at the end, just as the previous book […]
The Terrible Personal Shopper is the first book in a new series Surprised by Love that seems like it will be all about three sisters. While I totally like the concept and I’m a bit more excited about the overly geeky LOTR fan sister we have to get through the eldest, too clumsy to be […]
The Bodyguard is only the third book I have read by Katherine Center but I have been trying to get to more of her backlist. I had so much fun with Hannah and Jack. Hannah is a consumate and talented professional. Personally, she’s a mess. It’s not the same old story of a career woman […]
I have to tell you I was worried for Hannah from the start. She’s pregnant and all the stress isn’t good for her, plus she is digging into the past and bringing up things other people want to be finished. It’s not she’s TSTL but she pushes it. She lets her emotions take her dangerous […]
Leave it to T. Kingfisher to take an Edgar Allen Poe tale and turn it on it’s ear to something very different and somewhat twisted. What Moves the Dead is a strange retelling of Edgar Allen Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher. You do not need to have read The Fall of the […]
