  Born in 1968, I discovered fishing shortly after walking, a boon, considering I lived in South Florida. After a brief move to Kentucky, my family trekked back to the Sunshine State. I had the good fortune to attend high school in idyllic upstate New York, where I learned about a mythical substance known as “Seasons”. After two or three failed attempts at college, I bought a bar. That was fun because I love beer, but, then, I eventually met someone smarter than me (a common event), and, in this case, she married me and convinced me to go back to school–which I did, with enthusiasm. I earned a Master’s Degree in History and rediscovered my love for writing. My novels explore dark fantasy, immortality, and the nature of love as we know it. I live near Nashville, Tennessee, with the aforementioned wife, son, and herd, and, when I’m not writing, I teach history, grow wildly enthusiastic tomato plants, and restore my 1967 Mustang.

    This Book was a great adventure. The Narrator did a wonderful job and I enjoyed this book quite a bit because of that fact. The story was well laid out and the plot kept the reader interested.

The characters were well thought out and I thought that the characters developed seamlessly throughout the entirety of this book. The dynamic between the characters was something that kept me interested in this story as well. Livvy & Keiran were both adorable and so great as main characters.

Overall both the author and narrator for the audiobook did wonderful jobs and I am so happy I got the chance to review this book. I completely recommend this

REVIEW:

Now how should I put my feelings about this book into an informative and honest review? Well, for starters this book was freaking phenomenal! I could not put this book down for the life of me. AND! I could not stop swooning at this gorgeous book cover!

This book encompassed everything my Bookish Self needed. It had the perfect amount of Science Fiction, Otherworldly, Space Adventure, kickass fun perfectly woven throughout it. And let's just say that the Main Character was on point! Ann was totally someone who was just the right amount of relatable and badass to make me root for her the whole book.

The descriptiveness of the author (Vicki L Weavil) was wonderful and kept me whole-heartedly engaged into the story. The writing flowed very smoothly and was very easy to read and in so very quick to enjoy. I just wanted to jump into this book and live in it!

When's book two coming out?! I need it now please!

My Rating: 3.75 out of 5 stars


This book was well thought out and there was much promise for it to be great. But, I felt like there was something missing throughout the whole of this novel.

The characters were great, I didn't have a problem with them. Their character growth was well thought out. The romance was adorable and swoon-worthy. I loved the whole aspect of this novel; with action, intense plot, and adorable romance. What's there not to love? But, alas there was one thing that kept bothering me throughout the entirety of this novel, I can't seem to put my finger on it though.

Maybe if I re-read this book sometime in the future I'll like it a lot more, which is what I plan to do!

 

Review: Reawakened (Reawakened, #1) by Colleen Houck

Synopsis:

When seventeen-year-old Lilliana Young enters the Metropolitan Museum of Art one morning during spring break, the last thing she expects to find is a live Egyptian prince with godlike powers, who has been reawakened after a thousand years of mummification.

And she really can't imagine being chosen to aid him in an epic quest that will lead them across the globe to find his brothers and complete a grand ceremony that will save mankind.

But fate has taken hold of Lily, and she, along with her sun prince, Amon, must travel to the Valley of the Kings, raise his brothers, and stop an evil, shape-shifting god named Seth from taking over the world.

From New York Times bestselling author Colleen Houck comes an epic adventure about two star-crossed teens who must battle mythical forces and ancient curses on a journey with more twists and turns than the Nile itself.

My Review:

 

My Rating:

5 out of 5 Freaking Stars

 

My absolute favorite subject to learn about is Ancient Egypt, so when I heard that my favorite author was writing a series based on my favorite subject, I was ecstatic!

 

As always, Colleen does a superb job weaving fantasy and history and creating an epic, yet tragic tale of love and devotion.

 

This book was laugh out loud funny, nail-bitingly intense, heart-breakingly sad, and full of swoon worthy princes. What else could someone want in a book?

 

Amon, Ahmose, Asten, Dr. Hassan, and Lily were all wonderful characters that brought me to tears and made me laugh till it hurt. Lily transformed from Lilliana the follow-the-orders-New-Yorker-coward to Lily the brave-follow-her-heart-devotee. I loved Lily's character and felt her to be extremely likable and relatable. Dr. Hassan was an adorably funny worshiper that surprised me by the end of this book with how amazing he was.

 

My heart hurt by the end of this book that I was on the brink of flooding my room with tears. But!!! The epilogue saved my heart from being forever broken! There's hope yet!!!! I am extremely anxious for book 2 right now that it hurts!!!

Synopsis:

From New York Times bestselling author Yasmine Galenorn comes an all-new series set in the realm of her Otherworld novels.

I’m Shimmer, a blue dragon shifter. Thanks to a mistake, I was exiled from the Dragon Reaches and sentenced to work for Alex Radcliffe, a vampire who owns the Fly by Night Magical Investigations Agency. Now, not only do I have to adapt to Earthside culture, but every time I turn around, somebody’s trying to kill us. And worse, Alex is as gorgeous as he is exasperating. But you know what they say: All’s fair in love and bounty hunting…

When an old friend of Alex contacts him about a haunting at the High Tide Bed & Breakfast in Port Townsend, Washington, we think we’re on a simple ghost hunt. But our investigation quickly transforms into a deadly fight as we uncover an eighty-year-old murder, a cursed house, and a dark force trapping the spirits within. To stop impending disaster we must break the curse and lay the angry spirits to rest.

I rated this book.... 4 out of 5 stars

I thought that this book was okay, and honestly I feel like 4 stars is quite generous, but for whatever reason I decided to rate it that way.

There were many times I felt like the story dragged on, even when there was action! I don't know if it was Yasmine's writing style or that I wasn't in the mood to read this type of book.

I think I like Shimmer, but I don't know. Hopefully when the sequel comes out, Shimmer will have more depth and personality.

I really disliked the vampires in this book. They're definitely not what I imagine vampires to act and talk like. Vampires I picture are Vlad, Bones, Cat, Ian, etc in Jeaniene Frost's Night Huntress world. I guess that maybe I'm just picky.

I also really didn't like Shimmer and Alex's romance. I completely do not ship them!

Otherwise, I really liked the overall concept and ideas from this book. Hope the sequel will be much better! 

Blog Tour: Call of Agon by Dean F. Wilson

Title: Call of Agon

Series: The Children of Telm #1

Author: Dean F. Wilson

Publication Date: February 19, 2013

Genre: Fantasy

Synopsis

THE LAST LINE. THE LAST WORDS. THE LAST CHANCE.

Ifferon is one of the last in the bloodline of the dead god Telm, who mated with mortal women, and who imprisoned the Beast Agon in the Underworld. Armed with a connection to the estranged gods in the Overworld and a scroll bearing Telm's powerful dying words, he is tasked with ensuring the god's vital legacy: that Agon remain vanquished. Fear forces Ifferon to abandon his duty, but terror restores his quest when the forces of Agon find his hideaway in an isolated coastal monastery.

Weighed down by the worries of the world, but lifted up by the companions he encounters along the way, Ifferon embarks on a journey that encompasses the struggles of many peoples, the siege of many lands, and discoveries that could bring hope to some—or doom to all.

Enter the world of Iraldas. Answer the Call of Agon.

My Review:

 

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

 

 

This book blew me out of my seat! I loved it that much! Though at times I felt like the story was starting to get slow and boring, Mr. Wilson turned it all around and I was back to biting my nails throughout all the excitement.

 

The plot was very interesting. The characters were well thought out. I was rooting for Ifferon the entire time, even when he wasn't acting like the hero (and son of a god) like he should've been. I loved how, in truth, if most people were tasked with something like Ifferon was, would act like Ifferon did. It is scary to have to do something like that. There aren't many people who would just dive right in and complete the task.

 

All in all, Ifferon was made a more relatable  character.

 

The setting was made vivid and clear with Mr. Wilson's imagery techniques. I loved that I could see myself in that world.

 

Overall, this book is a great fantasy that dives head first into a new idea and does so spectacularly.

I loved the world building that the author encompassed. The world was so vivid and I felt like I was there in that world while reading it.

I really liked the character development as well. Basil was well written and I found myself rooting for him throughout the entirety of this novel. I also really liked the development of Maud. She was a strong, brave and wonderful female character in this novel.

The plot was interesting enough that it kept me on the edge of my seat. I enjoyed flipping through the pages of this novel all through the night. This story is truly addicting and I'm sure most fantasy lovers will enjoy this novel as much as I did.

Together, she and Alec, along with her younger sister, sarcastic best-friend, Alec's alcoholic father and the family dog, set off on a journey to find somewhere safe in a world where everything is different.

My Review:

*Note I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review*

I thought that the concept of this novel was well developed and I quite enjoyed the flow of this novel. The characters had depth and had a nice amount of character development throughout the novel.

The action kept me on the edge of my seat and I needed to know more.

My only problem with this book was that I wasn't able to connect with the characters as much as I wanted to. That being said, the overall story was so very good that I couldn't rate this story lower than 4 stars.

Synopsis:

Allison McKready is a succubus. So is her twin sister. But while Allison spends her summer break hiding in the library behind her Goth makeup, Jade fools around as often as she can. Allison can’t believe Jade would ignore their mother’s fatal example so recklessly, but concealing a cursed bloodline and its dangerous effects is far from Allison’s only problem. Mean girl Julie’s snob mob is determined to ruin her summer, and Aunt Sarah’s Bible thumping is getting louder. Only her new friend, Ren Fisher, offers safe haven from the chaos of her life.

When one of Jade’s risky dates leads to humiliation and sudden tragedy, Allison reels, and Ren catches her. But as her feelings for him grow, so does her fear that she’ll hurt him—or worse—in an unguarded moment. The choice is coming—love him or save him—but Allison might not live to make it. One way or another, the curse will have its due.


My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My Review:

I loved this book! The characters were brilliantly written and well thought out. The setting was eye catching and described quite well. The plot had me biting my nails and kept me flipping the pages well into the morning.

Allison was sweet and adorable! I felt terrible for her. Especially when she was the target of some very mean girls. I thought her relationship with her sister, Jade, was well played out and I loved the tension.

Ren was totally swoon worthy and I was rooting for Ren and Allison to be together forever!

I loved the succubus aspect and how that was introduced into the story. Jade acts as if it's a gift while Allison acts as if it's a curse. They both learn what being a succubus means and what's right and wrong.

Synopsis:
THE THIRD BOOK IN THE E SERIES
Both friends and enemies are keen to get their hands on the information inside Eden’s head—information that could take down the Sentries and change the world. But there are costs that no one realized, and Eden’s not so sure she’s willing to pay them. Refusing to do so could create dangerous problems within the tribe she’s only just come back to.
Eden has her own agenda for learning Lily’s secrets. With hope refusing to die, she’s spurred forward by memories of Oscar and thoughts of finding him again. But Lily’s hold on her is greater than she knows, compelling her to chase after strange clues and confusing visions. With love and longing weighing on her, Eden must determine the reality of her fractured identity in order to decide which path to take. The choices she makes could tear her away from Jonas and Apollon, from everything she’s ever known.
Eden’s future will not be determined solely by choices. Fate has her own cards to play, and they just might take the game.
My Rating: 5 out of 5 glorious stars!!

My Review:

I don't know what it is about this series that really get me hooked. Possibly it's the addictive writing style of Kate herself. Maybe it's the phenomenal world building. Maybe it's Eden's strength and relatableness (I know it's not a real word LOL). Maybe it's the mystery and the nail biting plot that's got me hooked.

Whatever it is, I don't regret diving into this series at all!

This whole book was either intense action, some type of conflict (Mental/physical), or some sort of mystery. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the entirety of this novel and I enjoyed every minute of it.

I dare every single one of you to read this series and tell me that it wasn't amazing! READ IT NOW #ENOWANDFOREVER

I am the perfect weapon.
I kill with a single touch.

Twylla is blessed. The Gods have chosen her to marry a prince, and rule the kingdom. But the favour of the Gods has it's price. A deadly poison infuses her skin. Those who anger the queen must die under Twylla's fatal touch.

Only Lief, an outspoken new guard, can see past Twylla's chilling role to the girls she truly is.

Yet in a court as dangerous and the queen's, some truths should not be told...


My Review:

My Rating: 4.75/5 stars

Twylla is a girl who has only known orders all her life. She's never made one single choice that she feels is utterly her own. But when she is faced with the opportunity to make her own choice, will it be the right one?

Things are changing for Twylla. Not only is she getting a new, young guard from a rival kingdom, her title as Daunen is questioned, and Merek finally seems to be noticing her.

Twylla wasn't my favorite character to have as a main character. She relies on those around her way too much. The world building was all right but at times I had a hard time believing it. & when Twylla found out the whole truth of her circumstances, I wasn't at all surprised. I also really didn't like either of the love interests, both were extremely messed up. Lief pissed me off. Merek angered and frustrated me.

The only reason I gave this book as high a rating as I did was because the overall idea and story was pretty awesome. I will definitely pick up book 2 in this series when it comes out, hopefully I will like one of the love interests then.

Evolution's Synopsis:

Outpost Three is still standing… barely. But the deadliest threat it has ever faced is on its way-- a violent force that will annihilate every man, woman, and child.

With the Sentries under his control and Grey’s army defeated, Matt is more powerful than ever. Eden is little more than his prisoner, but that line is blurring as her affection for him grows. Now, as the Outpost faces total destruction, Matt must sacrifice the possibility of attaining Eden’s love in the vague hope that her past might hold the key to saving them all.

Eden’s journey will begin to unravel the mysteries of her previous life, reveal dangerous new questions, and change not only the future of Outpost Three, but shape the course of history.

This eagerly anticipated sequel to Kate Wrath’s E begins an epic quest into the dark, dystopian landscape of Eden’s world. 

My Review:

My Rating:  5 out of 5 stars

Evolution starts off where E left off. It helps to end all our suffering E withdrawals and enters us into an Evolution withdrawal. For I am extremely missing this world and especially my favorite character, Eden. 

Enter a dark, barren world where all seems at a loss. Evil is around every corner, and those you thought you trust turn around and decimate your trust. 

Enter Eden. A strong-willed heroine with every reason to fight for what is right. A heroine with dark secrets and a shadowed future. 

In the end, Eden will risk it all to gain so much more. What was bad will face what is righteous and what was good will face corruption. Nothing is as it seems in Outpost Three.

Was this everything I was hoping for in a sci-fi sequel? Yes! That and more! Was the edge-of-your-seat action thrilling enough? Yes, had me up at all hours of the night. Were the characters deep and well thought out? Extremely so! Especially Eden. Was there sufficient character development? Yes! Was there honestly anything I would've changed about this novel? No, never!

So there you have it folks. This series is definitely one to snatch up.

         This book was a brilliant sci-fi novel that reawakened my love for science fiction. This world is so cool and mind blowing. I also really loved the way this novel was written, it made me stay wide awake at night biting my nails through this story.

I liked the characters enough. Gustavo is definitely one of my favorite main characters ever. He was written brilliantly! 

 The action was intense. I mean nail-bitingly intense. & the cool technology that Galaini created in this novel will blow your mind and suck you in.
