not really my thing.
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

This will be a short review, and for that I am sorry, My brain is shutting down, and I'm struggling to put much sense into my reviews!

I liked this enough to finish it, so that's a good thing right now!

I liked Callisto, I found her interesting and engaging. Her first person voice is clear and defined. I liked her!

There is much science in this book. MUCH. I found it a little hard work at times, and easy going at others. But I did find myself skimming over some parts too.

There is romance here, but I'm not tagging as such. Its very much in the background. I would have liked more, to be honest, it might have broken up the science.

There is some repetition of the same point: that men are ruining the world and only women can fix it. It got a bit much.

So, I did finish it, and I can only really stretch to:

3 stars

MORRIE is part of the Little Christmas series and I loved it from start to finish. Morrie has his issues and Scott is just the person to help him work through them. Scott doesn't push and gives Morrie time and space to figure out what he needs or wants to do. Their relationship is warm and fuzzy from the beginning. Morrie is quite clear on what he can and can't do and Scott is supportive of that.

This is the first book by this author I have read, although I can guarantee it won't be the last. I really need Perry and Silas to get together, plus Russ needs his own partner. Plus, I need to read Hobie and Ambrose's story. I'm hooked!

Heartbreaking, tender, supportive, loving - all these words describe this book. It was an absolute delight and I have no hesitation in recommending it.

The Watcher is the second book in the Crossing Realms series, and focuses on Dev Geary, who actually died in the first book! I would say that it is definitely important to read this as a serial, rather than a series of standalones. This does not stand alone and even though I have read Book 1, it still took me a while to remember what had gone on and with whom in The Keeper.

It is action-packed, full of new characters that have a story to tell. Dev has a job to do, and only a limited amount of time to do it in. This certainly doesn't involve the person he is there to find! Well written, with no editing or grammatical errors to disrupt the reading flow, this book was smoothly paced. It finished off Dev's story whilst still leading on nicely to the next one. So long as you read in sequence, I would definitely recommend this book/series.
