Black Widow (Out for Blood 3.5)
By CY Jones
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ever have a bad day?
Well I think I’m having one.
First my employer tries to kill me. I get saved by someone who says he’s my soul bound mate, but he’s made it clear he doesn’t want me.
Turns out, he only saved me because I can lead him to Hell, to the mate he really wants.
What a charmer?
Did you know Death is a real person? Yep, he runs Hell and he’s not happy to see us.
He claims my soul was stolen from him and he wants it back.
So I have to enter into these death trials that will decide not just my fate, but those of my mates.
If I lose, our souls are lost here in Hell forever, but if I can overcome my fears and be the Widow I’ve been trained to be, I’ll win and evolve into someone who is more than an assassin.
Let’s hope I've got what it takes to live, or I will forever stay tangled in the web of my own making..
I have really enjoyed this series and at the end of this I’m in hope for a series including this new harem! CY Jones is becoming a go to author for me. This was catching up with old characters as well as finding new. A decent read for harem fans.

I remember hearing about the horrible tornados that struck Tuscaloosa. Who in SEC country didn't hear about it and feel pain even if the Tide were your rivals. What I didn't realize was how wide spread the tornado outbreak was in Alabama. Kim Cross does a magnificent job using investigative reporting and research skills to recreate the horrible event. She uses the actual words of survivors as well as those who were lost during those days. Through her words we feel the horror, hope, and healing that occured from this "act of God".I recommend this book to anyone who is a weather geek, a disaster geek, or just like a truely heartfelt story told by a talented author.

So as basic as the writing was this book was pretty good. Not the best but not horrible.
The only thing that threw me off was the main character.
I'm not a big fan of characters who constantly contradict themselves. Like one minute the main character was like "I'm swearing off men and im staying away from the guys who i find attractive." and the next shes like "oh i hope hes still interested in me."
Another flaw in the books was the lack of relationship depth.
Sure you can see the connection but it really didn't play out well enough to have me root for them.
All in all this book gets 3 stars.

This was such a richly crafted novel! I'm still taking everything in. When Beth's eight-year-old daughter vanishes without a trace right before her eyes, it feels as though her world has surreptitiously turned on its axis. How does a parent recover from something so tragic? When the leads fizzle out and time goes on, The author paints a loving and endearing portrait of a mother struggling to stay alive, and to put one foot in front of the other day after day. She refuses to give up hope or to ever stop looking for her little girl.
The author's skillful use of alternating perspectives between chapters, and a totally unexpected plot twist, made this thrilling to read.

A thought provoking & moving morality tale
I'd already seen the film prior to reading This, so I may have spoilt the book for myself a little. However that said, the book is much better than the film. It's a moving and thought-provoking tale of love, loss and morality. It really gets you questioning right and wrong, and I found myself getting frustrated at characters for not doing what I personally believed was right. It's not a pleasant book to read for the most part as it's quite sad and depressing, although the ending does at least give you some hope. Can be a little too long winded at times but still a great easy read.
This was very, very good. I really enjoyed it, especially because I listened to it as an Audiobook and it was read by Rosario Dawson. She's always been one of my favorite actresses, but I didn't how great she is at voices or how captivating she can be just by listening to her. She really brought the story to life and made me care about and like Jazz, as well as the other characters. I really hope Andy Weir writes a sequel to Artemis because he definitely left it open for one, and if not, I'll be really disappointed. But overall, I loved this book and I would read it again in a heartbeat!!
