My Take It’s like reading the comics in text form without the graphics! I have to confess, as much as I loved my comics as a kid, I do prefer this format. Whoa, lots of changes in this one with an emphasis on Chuck’s strengths — detecting conspiracies. And reading this story just makes […]

Book Review: Shoshanna Evers’ Enslaved

Book Review: Shoshanna Evers’ Enslaved

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Enslavedin eBook edition on April 8, 2013 and has 160 pages.Explore it on Goodreads or Amazon The first in the Enslaved Trilogy BDSM erotic romance series. The couple focus is on Elisabeth Anderson and Trevor Brooks. My Take This feels more like a wannabe BDSM with more of a slant toward the romantic à la Harlequin. It’s cute enough, but no great dramas or tension other than the one towards the end. There’s not a lot of real life in this. Well, yeah, it does involve billionaires, so that does put paid to most of that, but what I’m talkin’ about is Elisabeth’s experience with Gregory and no romance there, so why is she thinking she’ll get a romance with Trevor? Evers forgot that she needs to build that reality into the story. This probably tells ya how little I know/understand of this subculture, but when Elisabeth feels better because Gregory orders her to try Trevor out, to live with him, she claims to feel better now that she has a game plan??

Book Review: Peter V. Brett’s Daylight War

Book Review: Peter V. Brett’s Daylight War

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Daylight Warin Hardcover edition on February 12, 2013 and has 639 pages.Explore it on Goodreads or Amazon Third in The Demon Cycle fantasy revolving around Arlen Bales, a man who refuses to allow demons to take any man. In 2013, The Daylight War was nominated for the Goodreads Choice for Fantasy. My Take Sure, it’s a lot of pages with plenty of space to tell a story, and there is so much story that Brett tells. This particular one brings us up-to-date on what’s happening in Deliverer’s Hollow while Leesha is off with Jardir and what Arlen Bales and his Promised are doing, but it’s primary concern is in filling us in on Inevera’s story and how she brings Jardir into prominence. There’s the infighting amongst everyone: Jardir versus his people and Inervera; Leesha and the people who accompany her on her visit with Jardir and the return; Rojer’s wedding and its myriad issues that slap up against whose loyalty goes where and the strictures of the Evejah; the clash of rulers in […]

I was provided an eARC by NetGalley and Ballantine Books. My Take It’s been awhile since I’ve read this series, and I’ve recently started back up, to catch up with events because I just adore Charlotte and Thomas. Two people who hold to a sense of morality and justice no matter what. It doesn’t hurt that I enjoy reading an historical mystery! This particular story was an odd combination of melodrama, what I consider overly twisted clues — the times when everyone sat down to […]
