Lynn’s Review: I’m having a difficult time deciding how I feel about The Marriage of Opposites. It’s been days since I finished listening to the audio, and I’m still not sure if I liked it. The Marriage of Opposites is a fictionalization of the life of Rachael Monzano de Pissarro, the mother of impressionist artist […]

Lynn’s Review: Marlowe has grown up in a gang in the cheap side of London. Stealing what she can to survive. Dressing as a boy to keep the other gang members at bay. Lord Maxwell Dane is an Earl, a member of parliament, and a proper gentleman. He has society, the ton, and the Earldom […]
Lynn’s Review: Reign of Shadows is a loosely based fairy tale retelling of Rapunzel. I say loosely based because the only connection I see is that Luna lives in a tower and is a secret princess. I don’t recall any zombies from reading Rapunzel as a child! Luna has always lived in a tower, […]
Lynn’s Review: Ruby Red is obviously the first book in a trilogy. But was more the set up for a trilogy, than a separate book. The first 120 pages are teen angst and more teen angst. Gwyn sees dead people. No one believes her, except her best friend Lesley. Gwyn’s cousin Charlotte is the […]
Julie’s Review: I really enjoyed the Cassie Scot series and was happy to devour it as part of the author’s promotional tours. So I jumped when given the opportunity to review this audiobook spin-off novel with a side character in the original series. While the original series is a 4-star read for me, this spin-off […]
Lynn’s Review: I completely blame Julie for my new obsession with the Vampire Academy books. Well, Julie, Richelle Mead, and Dimitri. In less than 3 months, I’ve read all six books. I thought I’d review the whole series. Spoilers, obvs. Book 1: Vampire Academy: I skipped the first book in this series and watched […]
Lynn’s Review: I was pleasantly surprised by Brotherhood of the Blade. Granted, my expectations weren’t very high, but still, I enjoyed it. I was never a huge fan of Grey in the books. I never found him very interesting. When he “married” Claire at the end of Echo (or was it MOBY, I can’t […]
Julie’s Review: Well, I’m hooked. The first book intrigued me with the Norse mythology and made me want to know what happens next. This book kept up the intrigue, saved its secrets until the end, and let’s not forget to mention hot guy yummyness. Raine is becoming quite the heroine and we are finding out […]
Lynn’s Review: I can wrap up my feelings about Etiquette & Espionage in one word: meh. The elements I’m interested in where there. But still, meh. I even stopped the audio during the big climatic fight scene at the end because I just didn’t care. Etiquette & Espionage is: steam punk historical has a plucky […]
