A God Among Insects Volume 2
What a wild ride this volume was with twists and turns so unexpected it'll make your heart stop. I love this series and feel like it'll never end. I'm sure the author has the ending in mind already and I wait with such anticipation for how it will all unfold.

Our boys are challenged in ways they never thought possible and continue to survive no matter what is thrown at them. Go boys!

Where is the King?
With Silas out of the picture his children run amuck!
Brace yourself for more dark and twisted times as this book delivers it all and more. Who do you root for, still not sure. I want them all to win! I've gone through the gamete with them all, love and hate them all, but I always want more. Good thing there's another volume!

Severing Sanguine: A Companion Book to The Fallocaust Series Book 2
My poor Sanguine!
What have you done to my poor boy!
This companion book will ripped your heart in two, then turn around and make you glad you took the ride! And what a ride it is, so buckle up and take it, it's so worth it.

Hearing Sanguine's story isn't easy, but it made me fall in love with him completely. I can't wait to see where he ends up and how powerful he'll become, because I know we've only touched on how powerful he really is!

Garden of Spiders Volume 1
I like Elish Dekker from the beginning. I probably shouldn't have, he's mean practically a bully, but there was something about him that put him in my good graces. Now, after reading this book, I love Elish and all he stands for. Is he right? I'm not sure, but he sure fights for what he believes in and he takes planning to a whole new level.

What a story! This one altered everything.

The Suicide King Volume 2
Secrets and lies!
Friendships and loved ones.
Life and death.
All of this and more unfolds with each new drama. The Dekker family will never be the same after all that has happened, but most importantly, which family members will come out victorious and which will fall?

Alliances are formed!
Friendships are tested.
Relationships are ripped apart.
You get this and more as each new book is released. This series is not only addictive but tremendously well written. Each book flows along with more information than readers can handle, but are still left asking for more.

Elish, Elish, Elish! What do we do with you?

What great characters, story telling. If you want to be entertained than read this series. I'm not one for Dystopian, I didn't like the Walking Dead, but I have to tell you this series sucked me in from the start and I can't get enough. Every character, scene and plot intertwine so thoroughly I never know what is going to happen and I'm surprised at every turn.

Highest praise to this author!

And the journey continues!

Reaver and Killian are back and they've brought some friends. God I love this series and have been suck into the vortex by awesome writing and story telling. Each character is a God of their own and it's getting harder and harder to choose who to root for.

I love this series and highly recommend you give it a read!

Review: Behind Closed Doors [5-Chapter Sampler]

Behind Closed Doors [5-Chapter Sampler] Behind Closed Doors [5-Chapter Sampler] by B.A. Paris
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Behind Closed Doors
I hear quite a bit about this book, so thought I'd give the free 5-Chapter sampler a go and have to say I never continued on.

I found it rather boring with all the detail about how they were so perfect, their lives being intertwine so much that she couldn't go anywhere or do anything with anyone else. I found it all too much and could have been told in a couple of pages. But the absolute worst for me was the wedding—seriously! I don't think so. That was it for me. I couldn't read anymore. Sad really because I had high hopes for this one!

Review: 18 and Life on Skid Row

18 and Life on Skid Row
I Remember You!

As a fan of Sebastian Back (Probably because he's a fellow Torontonian) reading this book gave me an insight to the man himself, which was completely unexpected. I've read a few reviews about how the book jumps in time and other nonsense, but really if I think back on my own life and had to write it all down, I'm pretty sure I'd be all over the place too, so give him some slack. I give Sebastian praise for taking on this feat and finishing it. It's hard to write a book and even harder to write your own story I'm sure. I understand why he wanted to write it, rather than pay someone else—I wouldn't trust anyone with my life story either.

This book brought back to so many good times I had forgotten. What a trip down memory lane. I love and miss my carefree days of youth, but I'm also glad I'm not that young and naive anymore! I do believe some things were glossed over or left out entirely, but do we really need to know every intimate detail of someones life—I for one don't. I think this book gave just the right amount of detail.

Thanks for taking the chance and writing the book, it was very enjoyable. Much success to you in the future!

Review: Where Willows Won't Grow

Where Willows Won't Grow Where Willows Won't Grow by Lia Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Where Willows Won't Grow
What a great read!

A great mix of dark and twisted with just a splash of vulnerable and sweet. I love how the characters are fleshed out and the story grips you with every scene. Well done!

Illythe is my favorite and I could so picture him in my mind. Seeing all sides of him really completes his character for me. To go from hard and cold, to soft and emotional is spectacularly done. He's so beautiful inside and out.

Great read, highly recommended!

Review: Silent Child

Silent Child Silent Child by Sarah A. Denzil
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Silent Child
This book came highly recommended, which was sourly disappointing.

I have to say the authors style of writing in this novel was good, but I knew from the beginning what happened and who was responsible, which left a sour taste in my mouth. I'm a crime/suspense genre reader and lover of films, so I'm not easily surprised by most works, but this was way too easy to figure out. Too many hints, coincidences and just plain telling the reader who did it. It's unfortunate, but true.

I did finish the story which is a nod to the authors writing ability because generally when I've figured out the plot I put the book down, but this one kept me reading, which again is the a nod to the style of writing. I will probably read another by this author hoping the next mystery won't be so obvious.
