This Side of Night is the third sequential book I have read by this author. That alone, considering how much I read, should give you insight into the level of how I enjoy his books. The author is a DEA agent, and his experiences have definitely added to the intense scenes he creates on paper. … Continue reading This Side of Night by J. Todd Scott

Ragel’s Brood & Naahla’s Pet by Antony Awtrey
I heard this author speak at the Indie Book Fest in Orlando, but he was talking about his adult books. When I went to the book sale, these two covers caught my eye (the Children’s Librarian resurfaced!). Tell me about these, I asked and he smiled, looked at his daughter sitting next to him and … Continue reading Ragel’s Brood & Naahla’s Pet by Antony Awtrey
Dount Lady Mystery Series — Sweet Deal Sealed, Sweet Deal Concealed and Sweet Deal Revealed by Judith A. Barrett
This review is for the first 3 books in this series – because just like donuts I could not read/eat just one! I heard this author speak on a panel at the Indie Book Fest in Orlando and got an immediate fan girl crush!

Recursion by Blake Crouch
When an author you love, J. Todd Scott, recommends a book that you just got – it gets moved up in the reading pile. That was this book, and he was right. This mind bending story of a False Memory Syndrome had me pushing the limits on my self imposed reading limit over vacation. (Because … Continue reading Recursion by Blake Crouch

Substitute Soloist – An Andy Veracruz Mystery Book 4 by D. R. Ransdell
Having recently finished the third in this series I happily jumped into #4. I have read this whole series, and while the first three were somewhere slightly above a Cozy in the mystery department, this book is solidly in the Mystery genre. The author has added a lot of depth to not only the main … Continue reading Substitute Soloist – An Andy Veracruz Mystery Book 4 by D. R. Ransdell
Diary of a Single Wedding Planner (Tales Behind the Veils Book 1) By Violet Howe

This sponsoring author offered her book for free CLICK HERE TO GET YOUR FREE NOOK or (CLICK HERE FOR A FREE FROM THAT A PLACE) to read before meeting her … Continue reading Diary of a Single Wedding Planner (Tales Behind the Veils Book 1) By Violet Howe
Death Comes In Threes (Addie Foster Mystery Series #1) By Kimberley O’Malley
You have probably realized by this point that my favorite escape reads are Cozy Mysteries. This one has the right amount of good solid characters, extra interest (in this case two dogs and two great Aunts) and a decent Mystery. Also what I love is when a series book has an ending yet leaves you … Continue reading Death Comes In Threes (Addie Foster Mystery Series #1) By Kimberley O’Malley
