Lynn’s Review: If you read my TWHS post last week, here’s my review for Winter Sea. If you didn’t, shame on you! Read it now. I’ll wait. Winter Sea is two books for the price of one. Carrie is an author, writing about the Jacobites in 1708 Scotland. Her main character is Sophia. Both find […]
Lynn’s Review: The Serpent King is what book clubs are for: to point out books I would never read on my own. I read the blurb, and was thinking to myself, no way am I going to enjoy this book. I even put off reading it until the very last minute. Literally the day before […]
Lynn’s Review: I am an enormous fan of Jay Crownover’s Marked Men series. And I approached the new Saints of Denver series with both excitement and trepidation. Would I like these new characters as well? Would I love them? If Built is any indication, then yes. Yes I would. In the Marked Men series, […]
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 had moderately high hopes for Storm. After all, I did purchase it. And nominate it for a book club read. But sadly, it didn’t really pan out. I started out loving Storm. Well, maybe loving is a bit strong. It was more I found Storm hilarious. Though, I’m guessing not as the […]
Lynn’s Review: The is the second book I’ve read recently with tarot cards as major plot line. (Read my review of Book of Speculation here.) The two books are completely different, however. Starting with the fact that I actually enjoyed Poison Princess. Instead of reading the cards and family curses, the characters in Poison Princess […]
Lynn’s Review: Sadly, there are no actual Neanderthals in this book. That title is very misleading! Though, the paragraph linking the story to the title by Ms. Reid is pretty clever. Can you even imagine? It’d be like Planet of the Apes. He’s Charlton Heston with all the muscles and such. And I’m that […]
Lynn’s Review: I’ve read a slew of unremarkable books lately. And UnEnchanted is one of them. UnEnchanted is the first of the Unfortunate Fairy Tales series by Chandra Hahn. In this series, Mina Grime finds out that her actual last name is Grimm. Of Grimm’s fairy tales fame. And her family has been cursed […]
Lynn’s Review: Vengeance Road is not your average western genre romance. It’s an actual capital “w” Western. With a girl as the lead character. We meet Kate Thompson in a saloon. She’s on a literal vengeance road, searching for the murderous gang who killed her pa. But, the thing is, she’s disguised herself as […]
Lynn’s Review: Dear Jay – And Rule, Jet, Rome, Nash, Rowdy, and Asa I have thoroughly enjoyed the Marked Men series. And I’m kind of sad to see that it’s finished. But great job with the last two paragraphs in Asa, wrapping up the entire series with happily ever after for all of […]
