Perfect Shot sounded like a great read for me from the blurb. I like strong women, fast paced action, political/ military strategy and I don’t have to have romance. Normally, complex details and layers are a bonus. Somehow, this was not the book for me. Alex Martel is a Special Agent for the FBI on […]
I was excited to read The Spice Master at Bistro Exotique. I’m a foodie sort or at least I enjoy reading about cooking and chefs. Unfortunately, I couldn’t connect. There’s nothing wrong with the book. It’s more my personal tastes or rather distastes. The setting was in Paris with Kate starting her own restaurant after […]

The 1001 Dark Nights Series is a collection of novellas by various authors set in already established worlds or series. It is so you can get a glimpse into the world and writing of that series in a stand-alone book. I generally like this idea but Wild Wind a novella set after the Chaos Series […]

Grave Secrets by Alice James is the first book in The Lavington Windsor Mysteries and piqued my interest when the book blurb indicated it is Agatha Raisin meets Sookie Stackhouse, with croquet and zombies. The summary of the book made it sound like it would be a lot of fun and quirky enough to keep […]
Rest in Pieces by Lucinda Dark is the first book in the Barbie: the Vampire Hunter series and just because of the obvious name similarity to Buffy the Vampire Slayer I had some really high hopes for this book. Unfortunately, it missed the mark for me, but we’ll touch on why later. Barbie was recently […]
Last Human started off as Ron Weasley’s worst nightmare. The very last human in the universe was raised by a huge spider, a Black Widow to be more precise. You can see Ron shuddering right now can’t you. This is a tale of the lost human species, a strange hive mind creature, a mish mash […]
