My Book Reviews
Book Review – This Side of the Grave by Jeaniene Frost
This Side of the Grave (Night Huntress, Book 5)
Well…. I liked it. It was great to be back with the whole crew, and having Bones and Cat as the main focus was a plus. I cut my “paranormal teeth” (so to speak), on Cat and Bones, so I have a great fondness for these characters. This book had some SERIOUSLY outrageous, laugh out loud moments. Stuff that had me giggling and incited me to squee with glee about it with my fellow reading friends. And of course, Jeaniene Frost’s signature steamy scenes (well, only one of those, but it was very… inspiring 😯 )
Book Review – How to Flirt With a Naked Werewolf by Molly Harper
How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf
How cute was this book!!? LOVED it. I couldn’t put it down. It was exactly what I needed and kept me entertained the entire way through. Funny, sweet, romantic, a little love triangle, lots of camaraderie, a little danger, a lot of alpha male, and just enough romantic angst to keep pulling at my heart. After a long work weekend, it was just what I needed to wind down and get back into my routine.
Mo’ (short for…well, you’ll find out) needs a change. A do-over. Her mega-hippie parents won’t stop meddling in her life (she’s practically their polar opposite despite how she was raised), and her fiancé just broke their engagement. She’s alright with it. She realized she wasn’t in love with him that much anyway. She needs to shake up her life. Find herself. So she heads from Mississippi to Alaska.
Book Review – Awakened by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast
Awakened (House of Night)
Well, this concludes my House of Night marathon, and it’s been quite the journey. From early “meh” moments, to absolute elation. From heart pounding situations that had me staying up all night indulging, to crestfallen disappointment. I developed an almost unhealthy preoccupation with Erik’s tenuous situation and became bitter towards the author’s mid-series change of heart. And then, a bit of an upturn when the author distracted me with a new and intriguing focus. One thing I can say for sure. This series made me feel and overall, that’s a good thing. Unfortunately, the last few made me feel more drained and aggravated than hungry for more.
Book Review – Burned by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast
Burned (House of Night, Book 7)
Zoey’s soul has shattered ’cause Kalona broke her heart, (but not in the way I expected). She is now in Nyx’s realm, as a damaged and fading spirit. Zoey’s body is slowly dying on earth, while her essence in the “Otherworld” is being a total basket case. The pieces that make up, well… “her“, are scattered everywhere and she can’t get a hold of herself long enough to gather them back.
“If you don’t put yourself back together, you won’t ever leave here because your gonna die, Zoe. I can feel that.”
