Book Divas (227 KP) rated Sands of Time (Fate of the True Vampires, #1) in Books

Dec 12, 2017

What an extraordinary and well written novella. It was as if Kesi herself was right next to me relating her story. I was quickly pulled in and hung on to every word and I traveled from ancient Egypt to Rome and Scotland and so many other destinations. This is truly not a typical vampiric read and I wish I could give it more than five stars. I can't wait for the release of the second book and I applaud this author's ingenuity.

I found this to be a sweet story. Not the best time-travel romance I've read, but it is far from the worst. Rome and Adrian were pleasant characters, although Adrian's constant questioning and thought process could get annoying at times. The end was a bit rushed and I wish it could have been a little different, but it was decent. Still, I thought it was a lovely story with likeable, and one not so likeable, characters.

Movie Favorite

"This film has a certain kind of dynamic and rhythm that’s unique to Paolo Sorrentino as a director. It’s constantly a sensation, and there are some images in the film that I will never forget—for example, the facial expression of a nun when she’s climbing up the stairs. It’s really, really beautiful. It’s image porn when it comes to Rome, a city that I don’t like to be in that much but that I like to look at in films."

Love in the crosshairs. Power on the throne. Poison in the shadows.

Step into the dangerous world of 17th-century Rome with The Cameo Keeper (Tofana #4) by Deborah Swift. This compelling Guest Post explores modern parallels—how power, faith, and politics still collide today just as they did in Giulia Tofana’s time.

A riveting blend of history, intrigue, and deadly secrets.
