Debbiereadsbook (1202 KP) rated Escaping Mortality (Escape Trilogy #3) in Books
Jan 28, 2019
a very fitting end!!
I was gifted my copy of this book, direct from the author, that I write a review was not required. But since I read and reviewed the other two parts, it's only fitting I review this one, too, don't you think??
This is the third and final book in the Escape trilogy and you rally MUST read the other two books first. You need to know how Edmund and Andrew found themselves in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, looking for an Elder!
Only Andrew has a say in these books, and THIS one, more than the other two, I NEEDED Edmund I really did! Some things happen here, that made me want to hear what he had to say, so bloody bad and he doesn't. I KNEW that he probably would not have a say, but a girl can hope, right?
Edmund and Andrew and their friends are on a boat to England and to find the Elder. Once the Elder has located and Edmund turned, they continue on to visit Edmund's sick mother. The "friend" looking after her is vile and dealing with her and the gifts the Elder has bestowed upon him, pushes Edmund to his limits. Then WHY the Elder gave Edmund these gifts becomes clear and Edmund has a choice: Andrew or the Elder.
I found this one a little less sexy than the others, but a whole lot more bloody! The way Edmund deals with the friend was scary, but needed I think. The Elder? Well he choose his path, once it became clear that there is, and there will only ever be, ONE person for Edmund.
I did not see what the "friend" was up to, looking after Edmund's mother, nor did I see what the Elder had planned fro Edmund, so it was nice to be surprised by those things.
I LOVED the epilogue! Seriously well played with that one!
I have enjoyed these three short bursts of Andrew and Edmund, but I really think had Edmund been given a voice too, these would have been all 5 star reads.
Thank you, for letting me read your books, Ms Dobie Bauer!

Jessi Bone (48 KP) rated Adventures in Patchland: Boom! Boom! in Books
Mar 18, 2019
The Boom is coming and Hoppe has what it takes to save Patch Land if he can only believe in himself. With his friends B and Pen by his side, they venture through patches in search for the Great Roth Tree. On their Adventures, they meet magical fairies that give them gifts of love, courage, and fearlessness. Hoppe is tested in ways that will change him and his friends forever.
This adorable tale of adventure introduces children to a maple bacon bush and how in the land of fairies anything is possible. I find the tale quite entertaining with bouts of laughter and fun. Hoppe and Pen get themselves to quite a bit of trouble and thank goodness they have good friends. This is a wonderful tale of fantasy and adventure for all ages to include kids as young as 8. This book is only 54 pages long but Vivan Shade has a wonderful storyline along with Rosemarie Gillen illustrations it leads you on a tale that will develop into quite an adventure with the continuing tales.

A non-traditional zombie book that stays with you.
Contains spoilers, click to show
I loved this book. It had such a unique take on the zombie genre, rivaled perhaps only by M.R. Carey's The Girl with all the Gifts . Even compared to Carey's book, it's still in a league of its own. Just read the title. After the Cure.
Can you imagine what that would be like for the 'zombies'? To be cured, but have memories of all the horrible things they did while they were infected? To try to pick up again, to reintegrate into life? How positively horrifying.
Then there's the research to build a case against the jerks that started it all. There's intrigue, twists, horror, and discoveries, all told from the viewpoint of after the world almost ended, but humanity managed to save itself just in the nick of time. ...Right?
I haven't read the rest of this series, so I can't speak for it all...but I can speak for this book. This was, is, an awesome book that I highly recommend for zombie fans!

Brant by D.B James
Four Stars
Yes!!! This book was sooo good. I need my own personal Brant. Tessa was just perfect her personality was similar to a lot of my friends and even myself. She had it bad at the beginning of her adult life but she came out of it stronger but still afraid. Once we lose our fear that’s when we stop sensing the trouble. I hate the thought of women and sometimes men too going through abuse. Feeling like its your fault. Never really trusting another person again. Brant was just fabulous he treated Tessa like we all want to be treated. He sent thoughtful gifts and put his heart on the line without expecting her to do the same. The danger throughout the story wasn’t really big so it didn’t really effect how I viewed the story. The plot twist was funny even though it was meant to be serious. I am excited to se what else this author has to offer. The writing style was smooth and the chapters flowed together perfectly.

Done Wonders For My Mental Health!
I have been a fan of Pokémon since I was a child in the 90s. When this game was announced I knew I would have to spend time with it. I am a very anxious person, I barely go out without a friend or my partner but I’ve found myself venturing down the road to collect stops in this game. I’ve joined groups and met up with people to take part in raids, I’ve had fun with the tasks.
The game has micro transactions in it but you don’t need to buy them unless you want to. You can acquire in game items through the Pokestops, research tasks, levelling up & gifts.
It is regularly updated so there’s always something to do. If you were looking for a fun way to get out of the use and socialise/exercise, this is it.
