This was one of those books where the action is always going, and it is hard to decide where to stop when you need to get on with other things. Hannah Meredith is not your typical hero or adventure gal but that it just what she ends up having to be. The story has a … Continue reading The Wrong Stuff by Guy Thair
Crossing Lex by Debby Caruso
Ms. Caruso pulled me into her book Merry Hanukkah (or what I call the story of my life!) so when I saw she had published another book I grabbed it. When I saw that it was over 600 pages, I confess I was happy – sometimes I like totally disappearing into a book and I … Continue reading Crossing Lex by Debby Caruso
The Ordinary Monster by Mario Kiefer
Having read the first two books by the author, I could not wait for this, his third. Once again he is able to take his reader into another world. The Ordinary Monster shows the ripples that can occur for decades commencing at a single act of violence. Readers with an open mind will enjoy the … Continue reading The Ordinary Monster by Mario Kiefer
The Goodall Mutiny by Gretchen Rix
This book is the first in a Space Opera series. This author writes a cozy mystery series I enjoy so when I saw her name I wanted to give this a read. To be completely honest I have very little experience with Space Operas - this is only my 3rd book. I am still not … Continue reading The Goodall Mutiny by Gretchen Rix
Livi & Grace by Jennifer Lynch Illustrated by Missi Jay
From the first page the whimsical illustrations and lyrical prose make this book the perfect read aloud for a large variety of ages. It made me long for my days as a librarian so that I could see the faces of children as they enjoyed this lovely book. The main characters are two sisters who … Continue reading Livi & Grace by Jennifer Lynch Illustrated by Missi Jay
The Strange By J. B Murray
Yesterday on Twitter I placed a Dear J. B. Murray note asking him to please include a warning on his book. Not that kind of warning – more along the lines of Readers Beware, please turn off your phone and clear your schedule before reading this – you will not want to be interrupted once … Continue reading The Strange By J. B Murray
High White Sun by J. Todd Scott
This federal agent turned author impressed me with his first book and this, his second was the same level of intense prose and consuming read. The book picks up shortly after the first, The Far Empty, ended. However, I do think there are enough tie backs that you could read it as a separate book … Continue reading High White Sun by J. Todd Scott
Heirs of Jior (Book 3) by Wendy L Anderson
Worth the wait! Those of you who follow this blog or any of my social media know I read – a lot. To be totally honest I actively keep track of just a few authors. Others I keep ½ an eye on but those I regularly check on to see what is coming when – … Continue reading Heirs of Jior (Book 3) by Wendy L Anderson
Lost in Amber by Esther Rabbit
This is a light and easy read – light sci-fi, light romance, a touch of witty banter between characters (one of my favorites!) and a dose of a good storyline. The main characters Zoey and her neighbor who just happens to be an Ambassador (from another planet) are well done and adorable in that trying … Continue reading Lost in Amber by Esther Rabbit
Always Darkest by Jess & Keith Flaherty
My last read of the Book Talk Radio Club Awards is the winner in the Fantasy Genre. Book 1 of the Arbitratus Trilogy had my interest from the first page. Heaven and Hell are competing. With the unique perspective of demons and angels in the modern day, this … Continue reading Always Darkest by Jess & Keith Flaherty
