Anyone else just love a good traveling adventurous story? I do. Lorri Dudley’s Leeward Island series take me to a place full of adventure. All the books can be read as standalone books, you do run into familiar characters at various points in the books but they are just passing mentions and do not leave you feeling like you are missing something; I always look forward to seeing how the former characters are doing now

This was a great book it caught my attention right off with the characters name, Delight :) . I have never seen a name like that before. I also love stories about the revolutionary war and this one was very interesting with a Redcoat switching to the Patriot cause. Plus I loved the story included by Jill Stengl. I highly recommend reading this book.

3.5 stars.
I love the cover of this book and thought there would be a scene in the story with her wearing it and there is in a way but not how I pictured it. I liked the whole good and evil of the characters, though I wont give too much away by elaborating.
I loved Arriane and Penn.
One thing that seemed rather strange to me was how he never really showed any interest in her but she couldn't help but be drawn to him...

I thought this book was really cleverly written. It is a challenging read - challenging because it looks things in the eye which most of us shy away from. It breaks down preconceived ideas, prejudice and assumptions.
It is grim at times, sad, heartbreaking but ultimately uplifting. I thought the characterisation was amazing. The narrative style skillfully portrays a clever woman trapped inside the body of somebody who has limited ability to communicate.
The love story was movingly beautiful but gritty and not over sentimental.
Fabulous debut!

Greg Norvick (23 KP) rated Stranger Things - Season 1 in TV

Season one very good season 2 moderate
Contains spoilers, click to show
Stranger things were a good retro feel your without it being heavy in it but it also had a good strong story. Nancy wheeler character having the love triangle felt confusing and didn't need. The boys group are funny landing the jokes. Jim hopper is a good sheriff and wanting to protect the female protagonist. But in the second season felt juggling too many individual stories on character. Too much

I l-o-v-e-d this book! I try not to read books about the military, because they usually break my heart, but I fell in love with this one before I realized what it was about. A Lover's Lament was extremely emotional and humbling at the same time - it's scary to read about what our soldiers go through and how oblivious we are to their suffering. I should hurt the author for what she put me through, but I loved the story too much!

Wow.
I have adored this series since the first book. So much happens. Love. Friendship. Death. So much time passes.
I loved all the Nephilim, all for different reasons, and I have a feeling this story will stay with me for a while.
A classic tale of good versus evil with a brilliant plot and characters. I loved the ending, some bits were sad and others were lovely. The romance was uplifting.
If you haven't read this series yet, then I definitely recommend you do.
AMAZING!
