Julie’s Review: Stolen Dreams is the final installment of the Cassie Scot series, and let me say the ending was spectacular. So I’ll just start from there. When all the secrets finally got revealed, I have to say everything was quite a surprise and I enjoyed it. For a moment there I wasn’t quite sure […]
Julie’s Review: Well this book was one intense ride let me tell you. We learned so many secrets about Cassie’s family and why she was disowned as well as some more family history. We even got a glimpse into why she might not have magic, and who might be responsible. Just, WOW. What a trip. This book […]
Julie’s Review: I was approached to review the audio book of Wings of Shadow specifically, and I agreed because the blurb sounded interesting, and I do love audio books. I don’t think I’ve heard any other books narrated by Meghan Lewis but I really enjoyed her narration of Wings of Shadow. Her accents were great, and I […]
Julie’s Review: *Sigh* I really liked The Headhunter’s Race when I first started reading it. See? Look at this tweet below. Started reading The Headhunters Race eARC on my lunch break. I’m already a fan. — Julie S. (@juliecookies) February 3, 2014 I thought the premise was interesting, and the set up was good. The […]
Julie’s Review: Astral Tide is such an imaginative and unique story. The ethereal mood throughout is refreshing, since I don’t typically read many books involving another plane of existence. The Astral here is like a character rather than a place, which is pretty interesting. I liked the special abilities that the characters that have an […]
Julie’s Review: My Creatures book club read Lord of Thunder for our January meeting, and had the author, Linda Mooney, attend in person! She’s local(ish) and we’ve had her attend a meeting in the past and had a really fun time. This time was no different. We had a blast chatting with her about this […]
Julie’s Review: The Blue Between is a pretty quick YA sci-fi that is pretty entertaining but left me wanting a bit more. I liked the premise – girl gets hit by lightning and all of a sudden starts disappearing and appearing in strange places, getting accused of being a runaway. Under hypnosis she realizes she’s […]
Julie’s Review: I met Rose Garcia, a local Houston author at the Houston Book Rave in the fall. I was super excited that she gave me an ARC of Final Life when I told her I’m a local blogger. I read it quickly around Thanksgiving vacation, which was quite fun since the book starts right […]
Julie’s Review: This is one of those don’t judge a book by its cover type of books. The cover screams low budget and usually low budget covers mean low budget editing, and possibly even writing. But this book was very well written, the plot was exciting, and the characters were intriguing. I’m very happy […]
Rose’s Review: When I first heard of this synopsis, I was immediately interested in reading this book. I myself took a long road trip the year after graduating high school in a small northern town and drove to Texas, logging some 4000 miles. This was roughly around the same time that Angeli was making her trek across the […]
