Review: Zane

Zane by Christie Ridgway
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on Behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
This is a series of interconnecting Books all centred on Eagle’s Rock, a town founded by four world war two veterans. Zane grandfather Sam being one of them. Zane is depressed because his siblings have all found there soulmates, and he doesn’t think he fit to be around a decent woman. Zane is 6foot 4inches and is clumsy always knocking thinks over. So at the beginning Zane was trying to convince himself that he is ready to be the unmarried uncle.
Zane also rescued a big beast of a dog called Gambler, who panic’s when he hears certain noises. When Gambler rushes off and knocks down the new Librarian Harper Grace.
Boom and clatter seem to be Zane and Gambler’s signature entrance. I really enjoyed this book, Harper and Zane were perfect together. The other characters had lots going on. This had me chuckling at times, with meant lots of funny looks coming my way.
There is a lot happening around the main couple, so a great mix of character interaction. Harper and Zane were great together making this an entertaining read.

Review: Saving It

Saving It by Monica Murphy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
Whenever I read a Monica Murphy YA story, I always find myself back in my 18 yrs. old mind.
I loved both characters Joshua and Eden, who have been best friends for years, all that changes when Josh ask her to find a girl to lose his virginity too. It was a good switch being a boy needing help and still being a virgin.
All the talk of sex made them look each other differently. I found them so cute together, it seems like they were the only ones who didn’t realise what was happening between them. I loved the other best friends Molly and Abraham they were so funny.
Monica’s knack is that it all seems so realistic, not all the made up with all the stars and music fading.
I would happy letting my teenage daughter read this and enjoy as much as I did.

Review: My American Nightmare - Women in Horror Anthology

My American Nightmare - Women in Horror Anthology by Azzurra Nox
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on behalf of Book Addict.live,
For the purpose of this review I am reviewing the book in one go. There are multiples of small different stories, which cover most of the legends and genre. The one thing that made easy reading was all the stories are bite size chunks. The different authors appear to get right into our physic, and play on all the legends and fears we keep to ourselves.
The warning I will give is if you are looking for happy endings you don’t get many, in a few you may just survive. This is geared more towards young adults as they are the stars of the stories. I have to say I enjoyed reading this book even if it gave me the creeps at various times and venues

Review: Wolves and Roses

Wolves and Roses by Christina Bauer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is Book one in a wonderful new series by Christina Bauer, and as usual she has drawn me into another series that has kept me hooked.
This is set in a world where magic appears to dying, in this first trip into the Fairy Tales of the Magicorum.
Our kick ass heroine Bryer Rose who is living the Sleeping Beauty Template. Her best friend is Elle a failing Cinderella template. They both attend Magicorum teen Therapy Group for failing to live up to their templates.
Two great female characters who are tough and can take care of themselves. We always have such strong females in Christina’s books and this one is no different. The action really kicks in when they get caught breaking into LaCharmes office and they meet the arrival committee in the form of Knox and Alec, I have only one thing to say LET THE GAMES BEGIN.
The adventures certainly begin, and I was dragged me into the story that didn’t let me out until the end. When I finished I felt totally bereft. So I went back and read Thrax, and enjoyed so more girl power. We didn’t just have girl power, Knox was pretty spectacular and I could understand Bryar's attraction. I could go on about this book, but then there would be nothing for you to find out. If you enjoy Christina’s books you’ll love this. If you haven’t read any, this is book one in a new series. So it’s good place to start. I will say you are not left on a cliffhanger, as the story arc for couple finish on a positive not.

Review: The Other Brother

The Other Brother by Meghan Quinn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Reviewed on Behalf of Book Addict live,
We meet another couple in Meghan’s series of standalones, but sometimes they are characters we have met in previous books. This is the story of Smalls, friend and work partner to Tucker and Racer from previous books. Each of these men have had a hard life so it is gratifying to see each of the guys get their hea. So I was really pleased that it was Aaron’s turn.
As someone new moves in next door, Aaron can’t believe that it’s his ex-girlfriend Amelia, the girl he loved more than his self.
Amelia has moved back, because her father’s Alzheimer’s has gotten worse and she wants to be near him. Even though she has left Trey her boyfriend behind. He is hoping to follow as soon as he can.
I loved this couple together, this is a very emotional book. My god you could feel the chemistry between them. Unfortunately there was a lot of hurt and misunderstandings to get through before they reach HEA. I can’t recommend this book enough it’s a beautiful story and I loved every minute of it, and always good to see my boys happy.
