Joelene Marie (28 KP) rated Separate Lives in Books

Oct 1, 2018

I absolutely loved Separate Lives! I was hooked from page one by the writing style. The characters were well developed and relatable in a lot of ways, tho I wasn't fond of Pippa and her intentions toward Alex. I could also identify with Susie quite a bit tho I wish she'd had more backbone in dealing with Alex at the end of their relationship. The entire time I was reading this book I was so engrossed that it almost felt like the characters were friends of mine. The ending answered a few questions but it left me wanting to know how things wound up with Susie and Will. Overall I truly enjoyed my time with these great characters and will be looking forward to more from this author. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC!

Well I expected something different but I'll take this

I loved this book. I got my hands on an arc copy and my god am I happy. From the blurb I expected some sort of girl power book which put me off a bit but there was no where near as mich as that as I thought. The plot didn't rely at all on a drive of proving girl power as the characters actually stood on their own and had their own motives and drives. I loved their journey through the lands and meeting the sea witches,I only wish there was more or a sequel but there's been no whispers of it and that severely upsets me.

<i>I got an ARC of this book through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.</i>

<b>4 Star Rating</b> ____

So many of my Goodreads friends were reading this book and very much enjoying it so I thought I would give it a go too.
I was very pleasantly surprised after I devoured this grim story, I liked it A LOT!
What starts out as a group therapy session turns into something ever so dark and sinister and it was wonderfully executed. I felt for every character within the story and I really didn't want it to end. This leads me on to the only negative that I found which was that it was so short...I was really getting into it when it ended, however, I am very hopeful that there will be a sequel.

Natari (73 KP) rated Curse the Dawn (Cassandra Palmer, #4) in Books

Jul 19, 2019

Curse the Dawn balances serious action with a very funny Freaky Friday style hijinks. However, such adventures are not just for kicks, and actually help to further the plot of other major characters.

The stakes are higher in book 4, with a God on Cassie's tail. At one point, quite literally. But when I look back over the books, I can't get over my love of book 3 enough and book 4 seems lacking in comparison.

Not that it is a bad book. Quite the opposite. Curse the Dawn is a necessary book in the series. It takes the series to a higher level. It's the start of a new arc for Cassie. We've had the trilogy of her finding herself, and now this starts her journey to find her power and place in the world. I can't wait for more.

I had an opportunity to receive an Arc from the Author Sage Spelling to read this dynamic book. I really enjoyed reading this book. You meet Emma and Chase and his father and Grandmother and other teammates in this very emotional book. The story takes place at Haywick University where Chase plays Basketball. He meets Ms. Emma and an attraction between the two becomes more then just mire acquaintances. Although there is dysfunctional behavior in this brilliant novel, it also shows the tenderness and the sense that there is a break in the cycle when Emma and Chase finally get it together and make their relationship a real go. This novel is a definite must read and should be put on your TBR to read and bought where you buy books. You will definitely love this novel by Sage Spelling.
