It took seven long months to know the whys and whethers of what Ruthie had done, which concluded Betwixt, the first of Darynda Jones's Betwixt and Between series. A long time, you will say, and I will definitely agree, because I was dying to know what happens to Defiance and the gang. When Bewitched came... Continue Reading →
Any Luck At All – A good first impression
You only get one chance to make a good first impression. This saying is usually applied to people, but can also be applied to books, especially the first of a series. The first book, and how it is received by the readers, will make it or break it. It was the challenge that awaited Any... Continue Reading →
Ink – We all need an Ox
With all the work I am swamped in, what with planning lessons and teaching full time, I am not supposed to have time to read a full novel in two days during the week. Yet, this is exactly what I did with Elizabeth Hunter's Ink, a standalone contemporary romance. Because it was that good! Fine,... Continue Reading →
The Elemental Mysteries – An utter and complete must
First of all, I cannot apologise for not posting as much and as often as I did over the last few months. Work does take up most of my time (as it should) and I'm having so much fun teaching my first-graders that nobody can fault me for reading a little (or a lot) less... Continue Reading →

Her Dark Silence – Do not sleep
The following review is part of my being in the author's review team, which ensures that you can read it the moment the book comes out. First of all, my apologies for being a little late.

Qurilixen Lords – Meeting the children
Reading a series until its end, being sad because it's over. This is a huge part of a reader's life. What is fun about it? When the author starts a whole new series with the main characters of the finished series' children as main protagonists! This is exactly what Michelle M. Pillow has started with...

Psychic Dreams – Burning conclusion
After having read Semi-Psychic Life, a few weeks ago, I said that my only regret was that I waited so long to read the book (you can see my review here). It is a mistake I did not do with the conclusion of Elizabeth Hunter's first Paranormal Women's Fiction series, Psychic Dreams, which I started... Continue Reading →
The Sandman – Better than good
Since I don't drive, I only listen to audiobooks when I grab my hook and yarn and sit down to crochet. This is the only reason why it took me almost two weeks to listen to The Sandman, the audio version of the epic comics. Otherwise, I would likely have listened to it in one... Continue Reading →
Met Her Match – Thinking of the others first
What will they think if I do that? What will they say when they see me dressed that way? Will they talk if I date him/her? What will they say? How will they react? Should I do it? Should I just flip them the bird and let them stew in their rumour juices? Whoever has... Continue Reading →
Magical Midlife Dating – Dating woes
Those who have gone the dating app and dating sites road, or who know someone who did, will understand exactly what happens to Jessie in Magical Midlife Dating, the second of K.F. Breene's Paranormal Women's Fiction books. And they will laugh like loons. I know I did. Warning: The review contains language that may offend... Continue Reading →
Witchin’ Impossible – Laughter, magic, and flying squirrels
I said it on Wednesday: this is my week for long overdue readings. After devouring Elizabeth Hunter's Semi-Psychic Life (you can read my review here), I happily entered into the world of Renee George, with the first Witchin' Impossible book, of the same title. And gosh, did I laugh! About the book Witchin' Impossible tells... Continue Reading →
