David McK (3562 KP) rated Grave Peril (The Dresden Files, #3) in Books
May 26, 2019
Third entry in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files series, and maybe I was beginning to burn out as I had read the first three books back-to-back in the course of about a week, but I found this one to be slower moving, more graphic and heavier going than either of the two previous novels.
Of the first three books, this is by far the weakest.

Autumn (3 KP) rated Mansfield Park in Books

I really wanted to give this five stars, it's my favorite of Austen's novels excepting Northanger Abbey, but the idea that Fanny was oh, so fortunately raised by those who would be her family, that her husband influenced her opinions, temper, and worldview is beyond creepy. I can get over the cousin aspect but the molding of the perfect wife very nearly ruined it for me.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2355 KP) rated Secret Santa in Books

Four Christmas novels - two romance, one mystery, and one chick lit. I bought it for Laura Levine's mystery novella featuring her sleuth Jaine Austen. I loved it as always. Two of the other stories were enjoyable, but Fern Michaels's contribution was just plain bad on all fronts.

Britt Smith (36 KP) rated The Light Fantastic: Discworld Novel 2 in Books
Mar 13, 2018
Yet again, this second part to The Color of Magic was absolutely brilliant. I marvel at Pratchett's ability to make me smile each and every page, while still giving forth characters that I can feel attached to. Marked as one of my favorite books, I will no doubt return to this one even as I make my way through all the novels of the Discworld.

I am not a big reader of dystopia novels, science fiction or fantasy. I am unsure where this goes, but I don't care. This has to be one of my favorite books of 2018. Neal Schusterman does a great job of developing the story, but also the characters. I would highly recommend this story to others. I can't wait to read the second book in the series.

Oh, My!!
Erotically Fabulous.
Loyal fans of Tiffany Reisz will love The Red.
Tiffany is brave and fearless in her writing and some of the acts in a couple of the scenes very rarely appear in other erotica novels, that said, some people reading Tiffany's work for the first time may feel a little uncomfortable. Me, I lapped it up, devoured it and I want more!

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated A Kiss at Midnight (Fairy Tales, #1) in Books

This was a really cute novel. I really enjoyed reading it. It was predictable but that is to be expected when a novel is based off of a fairy tale. I found myself engrossed in this novel. It was a nice escape from reality. I will definitely look into reading more novels by this author. The writing was spectacular, and it was very imaginative.

Good book! Picked it up before the hype when it first came out. Read the back, it sounded good and the look of the book was appealing, so I bought it. A nice story, enjoyed it, but in my opinion....really not worth all the hype. There are much better vampire novels out there...this one is just too fluffy and Bella is very annoying!
