After being forced to form a book club with her feuding neighbors, Bea is shocked to find the owner of the local Chinese restaurant dead behind his cash register. With events that are mirroring their first book, MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS, Bea and the reading group must figure out what the clues mean to find the killer.

The pace seemed off at times, although part of that was setting up the characters and the series. There was still plenty of time for some great twists that would have made Christie herself proud. Throw in some good characters and a nice dose of humor and you've got a winning series debut.

I fell in love with King & Elena's story in Unrequited and had been left on a killer cliffhanger!? Dove right in, dying to find out the rest of this incredible story. Elena is back in the hands of her psychotic husband Carlos, while left waiting for King to save her and their future. King is trying to make his way back to her while attempting to sort out Club business and gain that VP patch. He has to find a balance and otherwise he'll never be able to keep her... As in the first book, there is a ton going on in this series!? This book tore my heart out and kept me on the edge of my seat from page one... didn't want to put it down!? HIGHLY recommended book, series & author!!!

The power of Three ( charmed book 1)
By Eliza Willard and Constance M. Burge
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The first in a new series about three gorgeous sisters who disover they are the most powerful of all witches. Prue, Piper and Phoebe Halliwell didn't think reading a mgical incantation would work, but now Prue can move things with her mind, Piper can freeze time and Phoebe can see into the future.

Oh this was like putting a warm blanket round myself. I love this series and until recently I didn’t know I could get the books. It’s never going to win awards but I loved it. I’m an emotional reviewer I always review on how a book makes me feel once it’s finished and what’s better then nostalgia on paper?!

The action continues in this the 5th instalment in the 14 book series. While there are somewhat less epic revelations or events than in the previous books, this keeps the story moving and some key interactions with the Forsaken occur.
I started to feel in this book that the action was being spread out a little, at a whopping 900+ pages the pace started to drag a little.

OMG... I just can't. This book was epic. I love how much the story gripped me and wouldn't let go. It was a great sequel to the first. You learned more about the characters you already loved and it makes you love them more. I can't wait to read the next one. The world created in this book is amazing. It's definitely in my top 10 series to read.

Slow plot development
This book has a wide cast of characters but only a few who are well defined or developed. The world as a whole is explored but only slightly. This book would have greatly benefits from a smoother dialogue and more thorough character development. As is this is an enjoyable read but does not entice the reader to continue with the series.
  
wow, what a fantastic story, with all the twists and turns, I just couldn't put it down. I really loved the characters in the book, they were very well written. the story was well written with a fantastic plots with loads of suspense. this book is the first in the series and I defiantly cant wait for more.
