Review: Night Broken – Patricia Briggs

Review: Night Broken – Patricia Briggs

Night Broken is fast-paced and filled with action, fights and romance, on top of that, there’s a little drama because Adam’s ex comes to stay with them – for once seeking help and comfort from the pack. My Night Broken review: Night Broken was pretty intense, and there was a new creature introduced in the Mercy Thompson universe here. I have to admit I was rolling my eyes at Adam’s ex acting all innocent and needy, and even more so because of all she had made the pack go through when she had decided living with shifters wasn’t for her, then left both Adam and her daughter behind. Once danger came knocking on Christy’s door, though, she definitely didn’t have […]

Review: Meet Me in the Dark – J.A. Huss

Review: Meet Me in the Dark – J.A. Huss

Dark is only the beginning when it comes to Meet me in the Dark! Merc is even more twisted that I thought he was, and Sydney is so confused, broken and out of it she amazed me when she was able to show me she truly did have a backbone after all. My Meet Me in the Dark review: Book hangover V2.0 is what Meet Me in the Dark has given me! There are just so many things happening, and the twists and turns and psychological war Merc has going with Sydney is so above anything I’ve ever read I’m still reeling. And my feels, my poor, poor feels! From disgust to happiness, fear to elation, hope to desolation – […]

Review: Cursed by Ice – Jacquelyn Frank

Review: Cursed by Ice – Jacquelyn Frank

Cursed by Ice is better than Cursed by Fire, but it still didn’t totally make me weak in the knees. My Cursed by Ice review: In Cursed by Ice, I got to know the second of the immortal brothers, Garreth, who still freezes every evening at dusk until the beginning of dawn. With his brother Deathan, he is fighting to overtake a new city, and turn all the inhabitants into worshippers of Weysa. There are some pretty good fights, a dragon, and a strong woman who is soulbound to a dragon that helps her fight to save her city. It turns out she’s a slave, though, and that her sisters are kept away from her to make sure she will […]

Review: Made for You – Melissa Marr

Review: Made for You – Melissa Marr

Made for You is a chilling psychological thriller / murder mystery made all the more chilling because it’s YA, with young characters involved. My Made for You review: Made for You have so many things going for it! One is that it’s not that easy to find a psychological thriller in the young adult category that actually is a thrilling ride! And there are parents who are involved in their children’s lives – not all in equal parts, and some not so much in the beginning, but then they are working on it! There is a very creepy stalker with a God-complex, a best friend who is a very good friend, and the main character is smart and hard-working, and […]

It is the perfect opportunity to share what happened here on my own blog, as well as some of the happenings elsewhere in the Blogosphere. I promised last week to share some vacation photos, so here are a few:                     As you can see, we had a really good time, the food was amazing everywhere we went, and we had mild weather, with a little wind. I think what I enjoyed most of all – apart from the seaside – was the fact that all […]

Review: The Stranger You Seek – Amanda Kyle Williams

Review: The Stranger You Seek – Amanda Kyle Williams

The Stranger You Seek is a very eerie, creepy, stalkerish kind of mystery, in which Keye Street gets through so many twists and turns it was impossible to figure out who the killer was. My The Stranger You Seek review: Keye Street is the kind of heroine I wish there were more of! She is pretty flawed, and she makes no qualms about it! She’s also very smart, has a sarcastic sense of humor and is fiercely loyal. Adopted when she was a little girl, she grew up being the only Asian looking child in her white Atlanta neighbourhood, and her brother was the only black kid there. Diversity is very well done in The Stranger You Seek, but it’s […]
