REVIEW: Bride by Ali Hazelwood

Kaitlyn‘s review of Bride by Ali Hazelwood
Paranormal Romance published by Ali Hazelwood 6 Feb 24

If we’re going off vibes, this was phenomenal, and I had a blast reading it. If we’re being objective, then I think the fantasy world building could have been improved, because the modern world setting still left me with a lot of questions. But I had the best time binging this, so vibes win out.

REVIEW: The Engagement Party by Darby Kane

Sandy M’s review of The Engagement Party by Darby Kane
Suspense Thriller published by William Morrow Paperbacks 5 Dec 23

Darby Kane (aka HelenKay Dimon) has become a favorite of mine since she began her suspenseful stories a couple of years ago. She keeps you guessing till the end, makes the stories twist and turn when least expected, and always gives you a satisfying ending after living dangerous lives with her characters.

REVIEW: Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon

Sandy M’s review of Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon
Historical Fiction/Romance published by Lake Union Publishing 28 Apr 20

I discovered Amy Harmon last year when I listened to the audio version of What the Wind Knows and instantly fell in love with her characters and writing. Thus, this is just my second book by her, and it has cemented her talent for me as an all-time favorite author. Her stories are poetry in motion, ripping emotion from you at nearly every turn. And what made this book even more interesting for the genealogist in me is Ms. Harmon has used her own family history as the cornerstone for this long and arduous journey over the Oregon Trail.

REVIEW: The Whole Time by Catherine Bybee

Veena’s review of The Whole Time (D’Angelos, Book 4) by Catherine Bybee
Contemporary Romance published by Montlake 14 Nov 23 

I have absolutely loved this series, and now that the immediate family members are enjoying their happily ever after, it’s time to get to know best friend Salena a bit better. If you’ve been reading the series, then it’s no secret that Ryan Rutledge is going to woo and claim Salena, and what a fun romp that claiming is.  read more…

REVIEW: Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett

Kaitlyn‘s review of Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands (Emily Wilde, Book 2) by Heather Fawcett
Fairy Tale Fantasy published by Del Rey 16 Jan 24

I thought the first book in this series was really fun and such a cute read, but this is even better! The academic feel of the writing appeals to me so much. And Emily’s no-nonsense researcher demeanor is actually hilarious. (As a researcher, I really wish I could study faeries too.) Her dry recounting of the crazy events just makes them even more entertaining. And Wendell, I love that drama queen faerie king with all my heart.

REVIEW: The Girls Left Behind by Emily Gunnis

Product ImageStevie‘s review of The Girls Left Behind by Emily Gunnis
Women’s Detective Fiction published by Hachette Book Group 01 Aug 23

The more that technology, especially that around mobile phones, advances, the trickier it can be to build suspense and obstacles into detective fiction, particularly police procedurals. One consequence may be an increase in stories within the genre that are set in the recent past, which is fine with me, especially when that means mysteries with their pivotal events occurring during multiple decades within my lifetime. In this case, the main happenings are spread over the 40 years of one police officer’s career, with linked stories taking place in 1975, 1985 and 2015, and a secondary plot taking place during World War II.
