This is a difficult one for me to explain how I feel about it. On the one hand, I really enjoyed it but on the other, I found it a little confusing.

I never give a film such a low rating but I had no choice with this total trainwreck, I don't know whether the actors owed somebody a favour but some of them are fate better actors who deserve better than this thurd
Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated A Knit before Dying in Books
Feb 21, 2018
Josie Blair rents the space attached to her yarn shop to an antiques dealer, who is killed one evening as Josie and some of her knitting friends are gathered in her shop. The dead mans business partner is suspected of the crime, but Josie has her doubts and decides to look into matters on her own. This is a great cozy with a likable cast of characters, and a setting that I absolutely loved. Im a crocheter, not a knitter, but I still wish I could visit Miss Marple Knits.

<i>NOTE: I voluntarily read and reviewed a free copy provided to me by the author.</i>
Marlee and friends are back in the 2nd Berry Basket Mystery, and I enjoyed this one even more than the first. While surveying a possible starting location for the annual road rally, Marlee finds the body of a girl missing for 20 years hidden in the overgrowth. Can she catch a killer when the murder happened so long ago?
I enjoy reading about Marlee and her friends, and I would love to visit Oriole Point. With such a great combination of characters, setting, and suspense, Im already looking forward to book #3.

Loved, Loved, Loved
I had won Wildfell by London Clarke in a giveaway. I'm really happy I did.
Wildfell by London Clarke is a true gothic horror that takes place in London, England. I loved all the character especially Nigel and Alice. While they weren't major characters, I still had a soft spot.
I don't want to give too much away, but I enjoyed the whole plot line of people going missing and a haunted house.
London Clarke did a great job with the setting of London, England even though she's not from there.
I would definitely recommend this book to those 15+. It is so good!

The Harrowing is a great Ghost Story, very gripping and entertaining. The beginning was great and the ending was even better, at one point I was holding my breath and I just couldn't put the book down. I was so close to giving this book 5 stars but I was disappointed with some of the filler and unfortunately at times I did lose interest...however this only happened a couple of times. Overall, this was a great book with very likable characters in which I sometimes felt connected to so a very good emotional ride of a story. I highly recommend this book to fans of gripping ghost stories.

I read this book for my monthly book club, the topic being a book with a colour in the title. And I had heard good things about Wilbur Smith so picked this one.
It wasn't until I started reading it that I realised it was part of a series, be that as it may it was still a great book to read. And was a good fast paced swash buckling adventure. The only thing I didn't like about it was that the ending was quite abrupt, but if i come across his books again I will be reading more.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Furyborn: Empirium Trilogy Book 1 in Books

When I saw this book on Netgalley, I knew I had to read it. The description grabbed me & it sounded like a book that I would fall in love with. Once I finally found time to read the book it grabbed my attention. Unfortunately, I wound out of time to physically read the book so I ended up buying the audiobook. When I first listened to the narrator's voice I was hesitant but by the end I loved it. Fiona Hardingham (Narrator)just added a little bit more to the story. I was so glad that I switched to audiobook that I think it added a half star to my rating.
My rating would be a 4.5 but since I cannot do a half star I'm going to round up to 5. The plot was fascinating and I loved all of the characters that I read. This book was jam packed with action, swoon worthy heroes, and some really powerful women. I loved that Rielle & Eliana had their flaws and I loved that we got to know them on a fundemental level. It was fun to see the growth in them.
All in all, I really liked this story. I probably wouldn't consider it young adult though. I think it belongs in the adult fantasy section.
