I won a copy of this book on Goodreads. I was very much anticpating its arrival and I am pleased to say that I was not disappointed!
If you are not afraid of being out in the woodsat night, you will be after you read this book! Hell you may even be scared of forests in the daylight too. The characters throughoutbthe book are weel developed. While there were a few "typical" characters many of them were shown to have quirks or traits thatnare not typical of a suspense novel.
The plot was well paced. The suspense factor was always high...I found myself constantly wondering who would be next. Yet at the same time it wasn't too over the top. The story contained enough events that were reality based that you even found yourself convinced that the fantastical elements were just as likely to be real.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Walking Disaster (Beautiful, #2) in Books
Jul 12, 2018
Okay, I'm going to be honest. This book is not a complete novel. If you're going to read this book, you need to know the story and plot of the first book ("Beautiful Disaster"). I did enjoy this novel but I had to reread the first novel while reading this book.
The characters are lovable and I found myself laughing and smiling while reading this book. I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed "Beautiful Disaster." I do recommend that you reread the first book before you take on this novel.

Haley Mathiot (9 KP) rated Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World in Books
Apr 27, 2018
I didn't finish this book. I found Deep Work very redundant and obvious. Yes, it is clear we have a problem in our society of being able to focus. Anyone who works with or has their own kids will be able to tell you that, and how it’s related to technology. I’m happy you’ve done some research to back it up, but I found the book very dry.
Not only that, the kinds of people who will be reading (or listening) to this genre is already totaly aware of the problem, so again, I found it redundant. Not only that, the book itself was very dry and dull to listen to. Sadly it’s not on my top list.

DreadpirateSmoo (95 KP) rated Joking Hazard in Tabletop Games
Oct 27, 2021 (Updated Oct 27, 2021)
I found myself finding this game super easy to play and have played it a fair bit.
I don't ever pick to play this game myself and I think that is because I just don't find it funny.
Where games like what do you meme and cards against humanity are laugh out loud silly or blurt out a laugh offensively funny I just found this one lacking, and for me that really puts me off playing a game like this.

Book Divas (227 KP) rated Everealm (Everealm, #1) in Books

I received a free copy of this book when I signed up to host the review tour via YA Bound Book Tours. I made no guarantee of a favorable review and the opinions expressed here are my own.
Before I begin let me say that I found the cover of this book to be pleasing to the eye.
Now, if you love reading books about royalty and their drama filled lives then you will definitely want to read this and if you also enjoy romance, then know that you have hit the jackpot. The story line kept me glued to every turn of the page and the author's world building creativity made me feel like I was there experiencing it all. Instead of telling you who my favorite characters are I will tell you which characters I hated with every fiber of my being; Vacilla and Silas as they truly made life a living hell for the people around them.
I found the characters to be well written and I loved reading this book. This book contains just the right amount of romance, drama and adventure. I will definitely be reading the second book. Kudos to J.D. Wright for a fantastically written fantasy.
