From the first pages, this story will hook readers. I really enjoyed that it was from brothers‘ perspectives. Their house is incredibly creepy and I had moments of wanting to live in a place like it. I would love the adventurous side but the scariness I would want to avoid. The first time I read this book I thought it was unique.

It‘s well written and the storyline is creative. This book is written from four different pov‘s including; Wallace, Rena, Aiden, and Corynn. I enjoyed getting to know Wallace‘s brother, Cole, more in this story. Corynn was an interesting addition to the storyline. I wanted to hate her for being willing to break up Wallace and Rena, but I understood her motives.

I really liked the story. I was introduced to a new paranormal being, the Dynari. Wallace is a very sexy character. Rena didn‘t stand out for me. She was a good character but I felt like I‘ve read her personality type before. The ending was where all the action was and where I learned more about the Dynari.

I‘ve always liked Eve‘s character. I was grateful this book didn‘t veer off and leave Eve and Rex‘s story in the dust. Cheyenne‘s character just doesn‘t appeal to me, In this book when Eve wanted her to keep a secret and she was all, “Oh I will except from Dylan.” GAH!! I wanted to slap her so badly and tell her, “Girl, you don‘t want to keep secrets from your husband except when it suits your own desires….grow up.

This book enraged me so much. Cheyenne‘s scheme was too much for me. Why would anyone think such a scheme would be okay? I just can‘t believe she would think up something all in the name of ‘making Dylan happy‘. Whatever! You don‘t do something like that to make your loving husband happy WITHOUT TALKING TO HIM ABOUT IT!!!!! It all felt way to soap operaish for my

This book was my least favorite of the series. I didn‘t care for Sophia‘s character at all. I didn‘t like that she cheated on Ted but claimed to be so in love with him. if you are in love with someone you DO NOT cheat. I didn‘t care for Ted‘s character either. It took 3/4ths the way through the book before Sophia and Ted‘s romance finally kicked in.

This story was very intense and suspenseful. For most of the book I was worried at the lack of romance due to the mystery aspect but it eventually came to light. I didn‘t think I was going to like Addy but she grew on me the more I read. Noah is a terrific character. I loved his loyalty to Addy even though he has to stand against his own family.

I really enjoyed her writing. I thought Levi‘s story was wonderful and not one I‘ve come across before and I really loved him and Callie as a couple. I love romances so this was an easy and quick read.

HOLY WOW! This book was a trip. It hooked me from the start and never let go. I was shocked at every twist. The characters were well thought out and their stories were chilling. It was incredibly sad to read this fiction book knowing that children face the same situations in reality. The ending was nothing like I would have predicted but it worked in an odd way. It‘s a MUST read for sur

This has to be the prettiest book I've ever seen. I've never been a fan of ‘Alice in Wonderland. Alyssa is a likable character. She has hidden strength and confidence that she eventually discovers within herself. At times this story was down-right creepy. I hate teen love triangles. The ending was a surprise. Alyssa uncovers the truth about her family in a big way. I was very disappointed to learn that this is the first book of a series.

I love time travel stories because every place has a history. This book sent me to 15th century England. It‘s well written and adventurous. All the characters were great but my favorite was Paul. Paul is the smart mouth, got-your-back (in any century) best friend everyone wants. It did take me awhile to get interested in the story but once they go back in time I became page-flipping excited.

The story reminded me a lot of watching an extended episode of Friends (which is still my favorite TV show). I like how Lia had a little mysterious secret going on and it kept me reading to see if my hunch was correct...(it was)! I think there‘s at least one of these characters that any reader could identify with or want to be like.

I loved everything about this book. The cover is awesome and the characters are so well developed. Blake is such a wonderful man. He‘s sweet and sincere yet holds a past that haunts him. He loves Livia is such an innocently passionate way. Cole, Beckett, and Blake are true brothers to the core and I love how they stood by one another through the ugliness of their lives.

Daniel and Sharron‘s storyline caught my attention because it was real and didn‘t have any teenage, love-triangle. My interest wasn‘t captivated like it was in “I Am Wolf”. I was hoping the end would be a climactic battle but Joann paused it for readers to continue into the next book.

I really enjoyed that this was from a male perspective. The Native American legend Joann created was very enjoyable. In the beginning I judged it as another werewolf YA love story but the further I read the darker this story became. It wasn‘t a typical teenage love triangle . Ralph‘s character adds a dark twist to the story Joann‘s writing is very visual and some of the sequences were ick inducing.

I was unable to really get involved with this story. While there are a lot of different creatures and aspects that definitely make this story a fantasy, there were too many similarities to modern teenage life for me: from music players called jcrystals and tekking (aka texting) to school life and bands. It simply didn‘t capture my attention. I often forget what I had read and new characters got lost in the shuffle for me

GREAT STORY! I loved that I could so easily connect the dots between this fantasy world Abby created and the Bible stories I‘ve grown up with. The characters are nicely developed in a way that readers will understand how they became who they are. Elon is a very worthy heroine. This book is packed with action between creatures of all kinds.

While this is a fictional story and many of the scenarios are heinous, as a reader I am all too aware that there is a reality to the underlying theme and it‘s far worse. There were a couple scenes that I felt were a bit farfetched, mostly to do with the girls‘ backstories and how they came to be in their situations.

It won‘t take you away from reality, it‘ll force you to open your eyes and realize that these scenarios aren‘t just fictional, they happen and all too often they‘re ignored because of money and power. I have to finish this series because I need to see how these girls and Jamie overcome the circumstances they are forced into. I feel for these characters and I want them to get their revenge.

If you‘re looking for a cheery, easy-breezy, romantic novel this is not it. There aren‘t too many books that can wring so many emotions from me but this one did. The hardships Gastien endures to achieve his dream are unfathomable. Caddy packs no punches for political correctness in this book. She includes topics of abuse, homelessness, homosexuality, power struggles, and the question of what would you do to achieve your dreams.

This book is absolutely fresh. From the mythical fates to the mystical unicorn it was something I‘d never read before. Maurissa has created a wondrous tale in which the unicorn aspect is important and flows seamlessly within the story. I enjoyed the weaving element as well; it was something new and interesting. I loved the chemistry between Tessa and William. The only thing I didn‘t like was the fact that the book ended.

I liked Keegan‘s new ability which was interesting but the story lacked thrill. I didn‘t feel the chemistry between Keegan and Donald. Because Donald‘s character is more juvenile than Rourk‘s it brought out Keegan‘s immaturity which bored me. I needed Rourk to balance that out.

I really enjoyed that Julia didn‘t just write from one character‘s perspective. Even though the main story line is that of Rourk and Keegan‘s destined relationship, I enjoyed that Keegan‘s brother Thaddeus was an important part of the story.

This is definitely NOT a story you‘ve read before. It‘s a dystopian world with a Christian message at the forefront. I loved the character names Lisa came up with, very original. I really liked Ronan and Dri‘s relationship, although I do wish there would have been more than there was. The action scenes and the scenes containing just Ronan and Dri are the ones that really got my attention but the rest just passed by in a blur.

I liked that Gabi‘s faith and love for Marcello were tested without her betraying him altogether. I also liked that Marcello showed some doubt about Gabi‘s love. Rodolfo‘s character was difficult to pinpoint, one moment he seemed like the good guy and the next his actions say otherwise. If you haven‘t read these books, they‘re a MUST!

I can‘t express enough how much I enjoy this series. I liked that they take their mother with this time. The plague concept was a great addition to the story. I‘m glad Lia and Luca form a relationship. Lia and Gabi are strong willed, independent, and smart as well as vulnerable and honest. It‘s refreshing to read a young adult novel that doesn‘t include sex and love triangles but focuses on loyalty and faith.

The setting of Tuscany was new to read about and I enjoyed visualizing somewhere different. I thought the way in which Gabi and Lia travel back in time was original as well. Lisa has put a lot of thought into creating a believable history for readers to fall into. Although Gabi and Lia are teenagers, when they are thrust back in time and forced to blend into the 14th century, they seem much older and that made the book more enjoyable for me.

This book is divided into two short stories. Heidi has given her character‘s witty and hilarious personalities. I liked Chloe and Aidan‘s story best. It seemed more heartfelt with conflict and family relations. I felt Chuck and Sebastian‘s story was too instantaneous and they never leave his home to involve outside factors. I don‘t care for short stories. There‘s never enough time to become invested in the characters.

This book was completely different from anything I‘ve read before. History, politics, action, suspense, religion and plenty of heart are all combined to create an amazing story. I‘ve never been a fan of reading anything political but Tracy has written those aspects in a way that flow seamlessly within the story. The history of Pompeii comes alive and I could see the places described so clearly.

The concept of the story is different which I can appreciate but the overuse of God was ridiculous and the juvenile language was annoying. Phrases such as; bumping instead of having sex, pregg for giving birth, rilly instead of really. Melody‘s character was the more believable and likable of the twins. This magical virus that renders everyone over the age of 18 infertile is never explained, it just happens.

I didn‘t like Michelle's character for the way she treated Carly but she grew on me the more I read. I really admired Carly‘s character. I love that she didn‘t settle for an easy relationship with one of the men around her when she wasn‘t attracted to them. The setting of the story is great, I could easily picture right were this island was located. I was so glad when the people who hated Carly finally got what they deserved.

Already Home” is centered more on family relationships. The business ideas Susan writes about are things real life businesses should take into account. I wish I could find places like these to spend time. I fell in love with the main characters and the secondary character of Violet. The ending of the book was an emotion fest.

Brothers Kent and Ford find love with Consuelo and Isabel. Isabel is a sweet character and I enjoyed that she had a crush on Ford from a young age. Ford got on my nerves a lot. I loved Kent. He‘s this nerdy teacher and is a stud in the bedroom l. LOVED Consuelo‘s character. I loved the scene where she literally leaves Kent breathless. If Kent and Consuelo‘s story had been the bulk of the book I would have given this story a 5 for sure.

Felicia is such a charming character. She‘s sweet, smart…scary smart, and socially awkward in a funny yet endearing way. She reminded me a lot of Temperance Brennan from TV‘s Bones. I loved her straight forward and honest way of speaking. Gideon was a great fit for her and I enjoyed that they had a past history. Denise‘s attempt to find her sons wives was ridiculous.

Patience and Justice are a really cute couple and I thought Susan brought a fun and more creative love scene to their story. This book also had a dash of suspense regarding Justice‘s father. Patience‘s mom is a wonderfully inspirational character. My favorite character was Felicia. I felt a connection to her character. I really liked that Patience didn‘t get knocked up by the end of her story.

This is the steamiest book in the series; Susan upped the sizzle factor for Clay and Charlie. Both of them have been stereotyped for their looks. Charlie is an extremely likable character. Clay is just….YUM! Clay‘s slow seduction of Charlie is what I think made this book so hot. Charlie‘s mother was a surprise. Even though she‘s awful for most of the story, I felt she redeemed herself in the end.

My favorite animals are horses so add them to a book with a hunky cowboy and I‘m set. I liked that Annabelle didn‘t fit the stereotype of the prim librarian. It‘s nice to read books that allow you to catch up with previous characters. Shane and Annabelle‘s relationship was sweet but in their attempt to have no drama they became dull. It annoys me how fertile the women in Fool‘s Gold are. As soon as they meet their soul mates they end up pregnant.

I enjoyed that I wasn‘t able to predict what would happen next with the characters. Susan gives readers THREE couples to root for. I liked Tucker and Nevada‘s backstory;. Jo and Will are a great couple to cheer for. Denise and Max‘s relationship was hilarious. It might sound cramped and overwhelming to have three love stories in one book, but Susan has written them so well that it worked great and I wasn‘t left wondering about any of the couples

I found the story line of the main characters, Dakota and Finn, predictable and reminiscent of some of Susan‘s earlier books. Even though it was predictable Susan has a way of making reader‘s fall in love with these characters. The thing I liked most about “Only Mine” was the secondary character plot. The relationship between Finn‘s brother Stephen and Aurelia sucked me into the story and made it impossible for me to put the book down.

When I started the book I didn‘t know Macie suffered a childhood tragedy and because she didn‘t sulk and have a withdrawn attitude, she was a more enjoyable character to read about. The beginning of the story was a little boring but once Macie becomes Ross‘ housekeeper and they begin interacting it got a lot more interesting.

I enjoy the TV shows based on the subject so it‘s interesting to read about. I really enjoyed the CSI convention plot. It brought a fun aspect to the profession. The storyline was something I‘d never read before and it kept me guessing who Natalie‘s stalker was. While there was a lot of mystery to the story, most of the action didn‘t take place until the end.

I thought the characters‘ names were very unique yet pronounceable. Owain is a Blaidyn and I rather enjoyed his character. I liked that Moira wasn‘t that papered princess after all. The story itself is original and well written with just a few errors toward the ending. The chemistry between Owain and Moira didn‘t feel romantic to me. I felt more like he was caring for a child than loving a woman. I just can't get into Fae stories.

Sarah has created a very unique angel and demon world that I‘ve never read before. The story hooks readers from the start. Unlike many paranormal romances, this story is very light on the sexual content. I really enjoyed the special talents some of the characters had. Ginger's unexpected history makes her an even more perfect match for Wren.

If you want a book that is completely different from anything you‘ve ever read, this is the one. “Incarceron” is full of suspense, mystery, action and adventure. This book did have its drawbacks for me. It‘s not easy for me to read books that have words with questionable pronunciations and I spent a few seconds longer than necessary trying to figure out how to say them correctly.

I‘ve loved every minute of Alice‘s adventures. The authors have given the world a strong, smart, kick ass, female character that readers can admire. No love triangle in sight but just a hint of romance between Alice and Chase. Alice‘s supportive, honorable, hilarious friends provide for great sidekicks .This series has found its home on my favorites list.

If you‘re a fan of the TV show ‘Grimm‘, you need to read this series. If you enjoy stories with kick-butt female characters, you need to read this series. If you like fairy tale retellings, you need to read this series. Basically you need to read this series….just because it‘s awesome.

I was up into the wee hours of the morning finishing. I enjoy Alice and Briar‘s adventures and I liked that Seth and Chase became key players in helping Alice defeat the Corrupted in this volume. Each story perfectly continues right where the previous ends. Alice is a very strong character, she‘s not a whiny, melodramatic, weak girl. If you like the Grimm fairytales you really should read these stories.

This volume contains the first 3 episodes of the series. I love the Grimm‘s fairy tales. When the book ends, readers get to read the actual Grimm versions that inspired the chapters. I absolutely LOVED the concept for this series. Those tales are already dark and intense but the authors upped those factors. I thought Alice was a nice diversion from most YA heroines. The only bad thing I can say about the story was that it needed more editing.

The story needs edited. If readers aren‘t paying attention they‘ll lose track of who‘s speaking. I knew when the animals were speaming because their sentences were italicized. Corny will say she‘s going to meet someone and in the next sentence she‘s talking to them. How does she get to them, what happens along the way? There were many misspellings, missing words, or wrong words used. The romance between Corny and her boyfriend was flat.

I have never read a book about the Bubonic Plague and this sounded fascinating. I loved how it started with a flea‘s perspective of the plague. Most of the chapters start with an account of the plague from the animals that passed it along. Elaisse started out as a very annoying brat but she becomes much more likable. There is some romance mixed in the story but overall it‘s an imaginative tale of a very real horror in history.
