Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Scarlet (The Lunar Chronicles, #2) in Books
Jan 15, 2018
I enjoyed this book more than the first in the series, Cinder. The plot moved along much more quickly and it didn't take me as long to get hooked in to the story. There are a bunch of new characters added in this book... Scarlet (little red riding hood) & Wolf (the bog bad wolf) being the two main additions. The 2 classic fairy tales mesh well together & add more interest along with several unexpected plot twists.
I'm going to stop this review now so I can get started with Cress. The only problem I have now is that the fourth & final book doesn't come out for a year!!!

Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated Never Never (Detective Harriet Blue, #1) in Books
Apr 27, 2018
This is not the best James Patterson book I've ever read. I figured out the bad guy about halfway through the book and was not surprised. HOWEVER, I enjoyed this book significantly more than many other JP books I've read, because of the characters. I absolutely love Detective Harriet Blue, I think she's amazing and hilarious and a sarcastic ass and I love it. I love the development, the confusion, the raw emotion. I love the game the bad guy is playing the whole way through.
Definitely going to continue with this series, and I recommend it to anyone looking for a kick-ass heroine cop as the protagonist.

Superb read! Well written, with a great plot and characters. I was engrossed from start to finish. This book has action, suspense, intrigue, and tension. Theo is the rightful Queen of Astrea and she is willing to do anything to take it back. Theo is gritty, clever, determined, ready to do whatever to help her friends and her people. There are several twists and turns, and the ending is amazing. Blaise, Soren, Cress, Artemesia, Heron I fell in love with all of them. I cannot wait for the second book in the series! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

I rate this with a 3 since there aren't any half ratings ...this is more a 3.5 star review. I was both happy and sad with this book. Sad, because unlike with the BDB, I wasn't instantly sucked into the story line. It took me a long time to get into the story and really feel apart of it. That said, the characters were intriguing and definitely full of emotion that I could feel. I hope that the next book in Ward's Bourbon Kings series is easier to get into.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Serpent in the Heather (Dark Talents #2) in Books
Mar 19, 2019
I really dig this alt-history Dark Talents series. Kim is a great character, and I can definitely relate to her. This book began pulling in more characters, which I liked. This book was a good mix of espionage and the sci-fi aspect of these 'talents'. I loved the incorporation of a Talents encyclopaedia about what they know thus far, and how it was sporadically inserted in between chapters. While the plot didn't exactly surprise me in any way, I completely enjoyed reading it.
I'm sad that this will only be a trilogy, and I'm anxiously awaiting the release of the last book in April.

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Can't Walk Away (Nashville Dreams, #1) in Books
May 7, 2019
This is the first book by this author that I've read. This is the first book in this series by this author. This is a melt your heart romance story, perfect for these winter nights. This story will make you laugh, cry and smile as you read. The characters were amazing, I just fell in love with them from the start. The secondary characters were really good too and worked well in the story and helped it to move along at a nice pace. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

LET ME JUST TELL YOU. I have been an avid fan of Gilmore Girls for as long as I can remember. I have watched the entire series from start to finish at least 3 times now. And this book. THIS BOOK. I feel MORE connected to the show than I have ever before. I feel more connected to the characters. I feel just... satisfied. But at the same time I need to know more.
I laughed. I cried. I felt inspired. If you are even the slightest fan of Gilmore Girls or Lauren Graham in general, READ. THIS. BOOK. It is vital.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2395 KP) rated The Future Door in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The second in a kid's mystery series that combines steampunk and Sherlock Holmes. Griffin and his uncle have raced home to see what has happened to his parents only to almost be killed as soon as they've arrived. Why? The answer lies back in London and may lead to the end of the world as we know it. I was enjoy this book despite some over writing until I hit the climax which was a cheap way to end things. Not a bad book, but a disappointing finish.
