This is the first book I have read by author D. Fischer and it certainly will not be my last! I was pleasantly surprised at how easily and quickly her writing style, character build-up and story-line foundation hooked me in. I actually got myself into trouble with the Mrs. the first day I started reading this book because I lost track of time and forgot to get anything out for dinner, let alone do any of the laundry we had piled up

When mystery author Tracey Eaton heads to New York for her sister-in-law's wedding, she finally gets her first real life mystery. The bride has vanished and the family wants to cover it up. Why? This is my third time through the book, and I enjoy it each time. Still have a couple of small issues with the ending, but they are minor.

Marella (Wraidd Elfennol 0.5) by Morgan Sheppard
Marella is the prequel novella where we meet her for the first time. You find out a bit more about her childhood, her relationship with her parents, Daren, and also you are with her when she meets Nixie for the first time. This novella shows how important some things are to Marella, giving her the basis for the woman she becomes in Water Weaver.

I would recommend that you read this one first, before Water Weaver, just so that you get the rounded picture of Marella. Saying that, if you haven't, I don't think it would spoil anything. Definitely recommended for all fans of Wraidd Elfennol.

* I received this book from the author in return for a fair and honest review. *

This was my first time reading a graphic novel and the plot of this story sounded interesting but I found that I was quickly confused and losing interest. There didn't seem to be much to the story in this first volume and I don't even feel as though the author did a good job of setting up the plot for future volumes. Originally I had given this story a 4 star rating, and I have since dropped it to a 2 star rating the more I thought about it.

History isn’t everything
Adam Silvera is a really good author if you want a YA gay realistic fiction with a twist.
In this heartbreaking endeavor, the twist is that our main character is addressing the entire novel to his dead first love, using “you” throughout the “Today” sections to speak directly to him. Silvera plays with time and pieces together the mystery of Theo and Griff’s past beautifully.

The writer draws you in from the first page and writes in such a way that you can not stop reading. (1 more)
He is well ahead of his time and includes many scientific facts that were not very popular during that time.
It can be difficult to understand at times, but the writer describes everything extremely well, so no need to worry. (0 more)
Incredibly engaging
I am a huge fan of both the author and the book, it's such a fun and interesting read and the books grabs your attention from the first paragraph.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys, science, adventure and anything that would be seen as fantasy or out of this world.

Amazing story, I was hooked from the first page. This is a story about two single parents trying to find time to have romance. Amazing characters, you will fall in love with from the start. This is a hot and steamy read with plenty of romance. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.



Highly recommended read
