Book Review

Audiobook Review: A Necessary End by Holly Brown

I chose this audiobook based solely on the narrator. I fell in love with Khristine Hvam when I first listened to her narration of Daughter and Smoke and Bone a few years ago and this might be the 5th or 6th book I’ve bought just to listen to her narrate. She makes me enjoy just about any type of book I listen to and I’ve never been disappointed yet! But this book was even better – a happy surprise where the plot was great and surprising at every turn. Combined with Hvam’s narration it made for a wonderful overall experience.

Book Review: True Crime Addict by James Renner

Is it wrong to admit that I like reading true crime books? When I was approved for this book on NetGalley I was eager to dive in. Continue reading “Book Review: True Crime Addict by James Renner”

Book Review: One Pink Rose by Julie Garwood

Having read Julie Garwood’s For the Roses, an absolutely wonderful book, many years ago, I forgot that she also wrote sequels which continued with the Clayborne brothers after they’d grown. Continue reading “Book Review: One Pink Rose by Julie Garwood”

Book Review: Love to Believe by Lisa Ricard Claro

Title: Love to Believe

Author: Lisa Ricard Claro

Rating: 4.5 stars

Reviewer: Jennifer

Love to Believe is the follow up to Claro’s Love Built to Last. I reviewed book 1 last week. If you missed it, you can see that review here. You can read this book without reading the first, but don’t. Always read a series in order, that is my advice. Plus, this series is off to a great start. You’re not going to want to miss a minute.

Author: Lisa Ricard Claro

Rating: 4 stars

Reviewer: Jennifer

I don’t like it when book blurbs or reviews compare books to others. You know, fans of blah, blah will like this. It tends to have the opposite effect on me. But … that’s exactly what I’m going to do now. Forgive me?! Continue reading “Book Review: Love Built to Last by Lisa Ricard Claro”

Book Review: Never Sweeter by Charlotte Stein

Title: Never Sweeter

Author: Charlotte Stein

Rating: 2 Very conflicted Stars

Reviewer: Melinda

This book is in the New Adult genre, which is unusual for Stein, as she usually writes more straight forward adult romances. But I am a fan of NA and of Charlotte Stein so I was excited to read this one. To be honest I didn’t even read the synopsis because I like her writing so much – she writes so beautifully and with an erotic edge to it.  Continue reading “Book Review: Never Sweeter by Charlotte Stein”
