Bring Me Back by B.A. Paris My rating: 3 of 5 stars I wanted to get to this review closer to the time I finished the book, so my memory would be fresh. Sadly, I wasn’t inspired to write a fully fleshed out review. I enjoyed the book. I really did. It was cheesy, yes. […]
I really wanted to LOVE this book. However, I found it to be a solidly average book. Let’s start with the flawed presentation. When choosing patterns, I like to be able to see detailed pictures from several angles to really get a feel for the piece. The photos here were very model-focused with few close-ups […]
Goodbye, Good Girl by Renee Blossom My rating: 2 of 5 stars I really wanted to like this. So many teenagers and children have absent parents. So when a young woman sets off on a quest to rescue her father from perceived life-threatening danger, it’s an incredibly promising story. Kandace sets off after an event […]
Brother by Ania Ahlborn My rating: 4 of 5 stars Awesome Thriller Wow. This was a great thriller. As I was explaining to others, it’s like a great episode of Criminal Minds, but more demented. I expected it to be crazy but I’m surprised at how for it went. The way each plot point was […]
The Passage by Justin Cronin My rating: 4 of 5 stars This was really engaging and somewhat satisfying at the end. For being part of a trilogy, it was long. I think there were parts that could’ve been condensed and it was confusing about how the characters in the beginning were relevant to the story […]
I have a limited knowledge of world history, with bits and pieces of European and Egyptian history comprising the majority of what’s in my head. I had no idea this was based on real history – people that actually lived and events that actually occurred. I picked this up partly because someone told me it […]
For the first time, I am taking part in a read-a-thon! I’m doing this in a no-pressure kind of way, as a way to ease into this kind of thing and see if it’s something I’d like to get more involved in. This read-a-thon is called “Bout of Books” and here’s some info from their […]
Dark Eden by Patrick Carman My rating: 3 of 5 stars The story was good and I enjoyed the main character. The writing was a bit simple, but I understand to expect that from some YA books. The best part of all is the reference to some classic works of literature that might help kids […]
The Little Green Book of Chairman Rahma by Brian Herbert My rating: 1 of 5 stars I’m glad my updates about this book didn’t take. I was a little upset and spewing some vitriol. But the truth of the matter is that I didn’t like it. Not one bit. The writing was… ugh. I can’t […]
That Night by Chevy Stevens My rating: 5 of 5 stars Sometimes, after reading several ho-hum books in a row, I get a little frustrated and start to forget the excitement that a book can hold. So I get surprised when a book keeps me up all night reading and evokes physical responses of tension, […]
