Brewing Up a Bad Boy
by Katherine Garbera
"Romcom at it's best all while in the guise of brewing up at good cuppa"
Posted February 9, 2025

BREWING UP A BAD BOY is a rather light-hearted tale by the very entertaining and creative author Katherine Garbera. You have to take the title as literary license once you catch on to the double entendre of the title and for that matter the storyline.

Order of Swans
by Jude Deveraux
"Take a journey to another planet."
Posted January 24, 2025

I vividly remember when I first realized that fairy tales were actually fashioned after some perhaps gruesome or extremely sad premises. Looking for a successful conclusion or happily ever after resolve, the stories themselves were rather steeped with possible harsh events. Most certainly life-altering for some characters. Think Read more...

Lawbreaker

"Chock full of some awesome characters"
Posted December 15, 2024

Diana Palmer does it again. Unexpected characters appear in her latest creation LAWBREAKER. It seems we are now drawn into the underworld filled with gangs, bosses and something that closely resembles mafia-type folks. Both men and women I must admit.

The Journal I Did Not Keep
by Lore Segal
"A candid look through the eyes of characters to a harsh event in history"
Posted November 21, 2024

THE JOURNAL I DID NOT KEEP by Lore Segal is simply a walk with words through her life. Seemingly simplistic verbiage showcases some key moments in her memory and her family history. Candidly speaking creative genius. I feel as though I know Lore Segal through her writings. I laughed Read more...

An avid reader for all my life and reading is one of my passions. I’ve been an independent reviewer for several years now and have covered just about every genre from a vast number of publishers and authors. Another perk of reviewing is getting a first glimpse of new and upcoming works from talented authors. As a reviewer I have had the fortune to meet new authors and become reacquainted with some tried and true ones. One of the most rewarding aspects of reviewing is having your work acknowledged by authors and/or publishers. The inclusion of one of my reviews on a book jacket or on an author’s website is a supreme compliment and always appreciated. With the advent and broad adoption of the e-reader the scope of available works to be reviewed has increased exponentially making the job of the reviewer ever more challenging as the selection of works becomes vast beyond belief. My goal is simple – to deliver a fair and honest review. I take this very seriously as I respect my readers and they can depend on my appraisal of fiction as well as various crafts and cooking. My main focus is fiction but occasionally something from another genre catches my eye. Reviews

Re: Heartache Falls (11:34am April 28, 2011):

Okay I'm hooked - definitely have three more books to add to my must read list. Dogs love us unconditionally - you can't really say that about anyone or anything else. My Maxwell will always have a special place in our hearts along with our Coco and Shani. Now we have a rescue grand doggie Annie who loves her little girl sooo much.
