CJ Bahr- Walking Through Fire

5 Stars Brilliant What a magnificent story in Walking Through Fire by CJ Bahr. This is not only the first book I've read by this author, but the first book in the three-book (so far) series The Fire Chronicles. I started reading it, and then took a step back. Simon died, and since I don't read the descriptions of the books or other reviews, I was shocked, and taken aback. Then I thought, hmm, this is going to be interesting. I was wrong. It was more than interesting, it was i

Ted Tayler - Into the Sunlight

5 Stars Another great cold case investigation! What a superb story in Into the Sunlight by Ted Tayler. I am a big fan of this author! Whatever this author writes, I read. I really like Gus and the Crime Review Team, and their investigations are not just professional, but they put their heart and soul into solving them. And it's not all about the investigation, it's about each person, and how they are different but work well together. This is just another really, really, reall

Arthur Sesnovich and Frank Quaglia- Mumblings of a Mortician

5 Stars Amazingly humorous stories, all true! What a magnificent title in Mumblings of a Mortician by Arthur Sesnovich & Frank Quaglia. I haven't read from these authors before, but this book is highly recommended. Death is not always a gruesome business, and even though it may seem to be routine for those who run a funeral home, but it is not just about the death, the wake, the cremation, and the grief. There is a lot more to it, including the most remarkable, more like insa

Khafra K Om-Ra-Seti - Audiobook- Wall Street West

Full Title: Khafra K Om-Ra-Seti - Audiobook- Wall Street West: The Gathering in the Age of Darkness Narrated by: Paul Richard Yarborough 5 Stars Interesting fantasy What a remarkable title in Wall Street West: The Gathering in the Age of Darkness by Khafra K Om-Ra-Seti. I have read this author's nonfiction books about finances and world economic meltdown, so this is a different type of read for me. Then, I listened to this book on audio, and it was so impressive. I loved the

Abdiel LeRoy- The Covid Protocols

Full Title: Abdiel LeRoy- The Covid Protocols: Upholding Your Rights in Authoritarian Times 5 Stars Very informative information! This title The Covid Protocols: Upholding Your Rights in Authoritarian Times by Abdiel LeRoy seems to be a controversial book, especially in times of COVID. However, it is worth the read to get information that you may or may not know. Everyone globally should know what their rights are, where they live, and even if there are international laws tha

Pete Adams - Rite Judgement

5 Stars Ominous and quite intriguing What a frightfully grand story in Rite Judgement by Pete Adams. I am a definite fan of this author! Whatever this author writes, I want to read. This author has a great imagination and I'm glad it's being shared with stories. The story brings in the believable, even if almost impossible. Oh, it's not just about the dead, and there is no such thing as last rites, as the dead come to life. Sometimes things happen that can't be explained, and

Rod Glenn - Slaughterville

5 Stars Brilliant and Magnetic What a thrilling, and chilling story in Slaughterville by Rod Glenn. This book is an adaptation created from Glenn's Sinema series (which I've read and loved). I can't help it. I love horror stories when they make sense, even if killing off a whole town makes sense. Anyway, I was very excited to read this story, and definitely was not disappointed. You know it's going to be something chilling when the book is dedicated to the demon inside! I am

Karen A. Wyle- Wander Home

5 Stars Brilliant!!! What a magnificently magnetic story in Wander Home by Karen A. Wyle. Life isn't any easier in the afterlife. You still have to deal with the memories, both good and bad of when you were alive. That goes for Cassidy, whose mother left her when she was young, but then Cassidy died. I liked Wyle's perception of the afterlife. It's a remarkable story, and the characters were interesting, and not one dimensional. We never knows what happens after death, and th

Chris Fortunato - The Two Lilies

5 Stars A Great Read What a great and interesting story in The Two Lilies by Chris Fortunato. A story told in two parts. I read both part I and part II on the close2thebone.co.uk website. I have become a fan of this author, and his writing style. It was a very interesting story, and the characters of Monica, and Sheila, and of course, the two Lilies. At first, I didn't understand how Monica fit into the other's lives, but then I realized, it was her dream to be part of a soci

W.T. O’Brien - The Arboretum After Midnight

5 Stars Murder after Midnight!! What a suspenseful story in The Arboretum After Midnight by W.T. O’Brien. I have just become a big fan of this author. The characters had a lot of depth and were very realistic. Whitney is one of those beautiful people that have as many admirers as haters and has no idea what's about to happen to her. Add in a rookie detective, to the investigation. It's remarkable scene, intense and leaves the reader wondering what's going to happen next. It i

Christie Valentine Powell - The Seventh Clan: A Spectra Crowns Tale

(Vella Story) 5 Stars An Episodic wonder to read What a wonderful story in The Seventh Clan: A Spectra Crowns Tale by Christie Valentine Powell. I am a big fan of this author! Whatever this author writes, I read. This story is an Amazon Vella story, so I read each episode as it was released. I like how this story was divided into the episodes, properly. It is not always easy to write a story, let alone in episodes. I am a fan of the Spectra books, I liked that the author deci

Whatever this author writes, I read. (And I was lucky enough to get another book of hers as a gift). I haven't read work from this author before, and I loved, loved, loved this story. Amy Radigan is a remarkable character, and definitely, though she's young, she is a force to be reckoned with. Amy is one of my new

Sherry V. Ostroff- MANNAHATTA

5 Stars A Magnetic sequel What a brilliant story in MANNAHATTA by Sherry V. Ostroff. This story is the sequel to Caledonia, which I absolutely loved. Two women, strong and facing adversity in their own era, their stories are 300 years apart, and have this deep connection. Anna's life is several generations before Hanna and her story is told because of Hanna. Her life is relived and comes alive because of Hanna. Both of their stories are significant, and amazing, and Ostroff s

Chris Karlsen- Silk

5 Stars Magnificent story! What a magnetic and intriguing story in Silk by Chris Karlsen. I am a definite fan of this author! Whatever this author writes, I read. This author brings the story to life. The era is Victorian, where Jack the Ripper was on his rampage, but this isn't that story. There is another dangerous monster out there, and it's Bloodstone's job to find him. I was drawn in from the beginning. At first, I wasn't quite sure of what William was doing, but then it

This is the conclusion of the Time Box series, which was all about time travelling, hiding, and drama. The Lane family travels back in time, and sometimes, finds an era to stay in. This book spans a century, of drama, secrets, survival, and trying to figure out how to live, what time to l

Margaret Atwood - The Handmaid's Tale

5 Stars Incredible dystopian story that just makes you really think. What a remarkable story in The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. This is the first book of Atwood's that I've read. I have to admit it's been on my bookshelf for quite a while, and I have been meaning to read it, but other reads came first. So, I finally sat down and read this book. At first, I wasn't sure what the story was about, what a Handmaid was, and then, you figure it out as you go along. This is a

TC Marti - Tarja Titan

5 Stars A remarkable paranormal story!! What a remarkable story in Tarja Titan by TC Marti. I have just become a big fan of this author! Whatever this author writes, I will read. I really like Tarja, and in the beginning, the reader learns a bit about her, and what people around her think of her, and how she is treated. At first, it reminds me of how Cinderella was treated, and of course, Tarja is different, so that lends to her being plied with medication. Tarja has a gift w

Murder, corruption, various clues, and Carson. He always ends up in the middle of something and reading and seeing how the
