Griffen by A.J. Blakemont Review!



~ ~ I was given this book by the publisher via netgalley for an honest review ~ ~


I found Griffen hard to get into, it jumped right into an action scene but still straight after that it started moving at what felt like a snails pace. Yeah, it was good to find out all about how Griffen came to be but really she just seemed really needy and kinda dull. I personally prefer something that is a bit more gripping but I'm positive that this type of story would be up a lot of peoples alley. I say give it a try I may be just expecting too much. It does have a rich mythology and makes this world seem completely possible. So give it a read and make up your own mind don't just take my feelings at face value.

Hunter by Sarai Henderson Review!



~ ~ I was given this book by the publisher via netgalley for an honest review ~ ~


Hunter will peak your interest right from the start. It is a very interesting Urban Fantasy story with characters that will either love or love to hate depending on who they are. I found that I had trouble putting the book down even when I really had to because I just really had to find out what was going to happen next. The only thing that had me sulking a little was that it was over too quickly and left me wanting more and to find out what else could have happened to the characters. No matter what this is a highly recommended read that is a great way to spend an afternoon or a few days depending on the time you have. It was an intriguing and action filled read that comes with a big two thumbs up from this reader.

Resistance by Mikhaeyla Kopievsky Review!



~ ~ I was given this book by the publisher via netgalley for an honest review ~ ~

I loved Resistance! It was well written, the characters were amazing and the story was awesome. What a difference a day makes in the life of the main character. The world is well built and I could see so well the way these people lived and was with them all the way with their need for freedom. I was impressed with everything about this book and can't wait to read the next installment. I would highly recommend this to anyone who appreciates a good dystopian tale.


With fist held high in the air. "RESISTANCE!"

Love You to Death by Caroline Mitchell Review.



~ ~ I was given this book by the publisher via netgalley for an honest review ~ ~


I have never read any of Caroline Mitchell's other work but after reading this book I will definitely be delving into her other books. I found that the story managed to grip you from the beginning and kept you wanting to read more to find out what would happen next. Even though it was not classed as a romance there was just enough energy between Ruby and Nathan and Ruby and Downes that you find yourself voting for which one would end up winning the girl. Much like everyone else I was hoping that she would come to her senses and realize that there had to be a way to be with Nathan. 'Lucy' the main bad guy was a nasty piece of work but she is why I gave the book 4/5 stars, I found that she was a little flat and the way it ended was a little boring compared to the rest of the book. The other things that are going on throughout the story make you take less notice of the fact that 'Lucy' needs a bit more oomph. The rest of the characters are well thought out and very likable or the type of character that you love to hate (cough cough Lenny cough cough). You get really good background on the characters which gets you really attached to them and gives you a really good understanding of why they are what they are. All in all I really enjoyed the read and would recommend it to anyone who wants to read something that keeps you hanging till the end to find out the who done it. Two thumbs up for this one.
