Venon Boxed Set by Kristen Middleton

Are you ready for an overseas adventure with a group of hot vampires and lycans?
Thought so, well add this one to your list.



My opinion:
Book 3 took me a bit by surprise. I didn't quite expect the direction the book went in but it was a fun book. All of them are. I'm not unfamiliar with Kristen Middletons books nor the roamers and lycans. I like that she sticks to the same rules with each paranormal story.

Chelsea and Melody are cousins who upon strange circumstances end up with a group of vampires and lycans escaping Faye the evil shape shifter. Each chapter has a new twist as the two girls end up on almost any teenagers dream adventure with a bit of trouble and some heartache.


The characters are likable, the wrting is exciting and the plot is always moving forward. It's a great read to pass the time!

Very intriguing. Why did you choose Once Upon Academy?

Get riddy for a griddy thriller!

Hurricane Chloe blows through Billows Hollow, North Carolina ravaging the small, beach town. The decimation caused by the storm is only a piece of the destruction. A young family is found murdered, all but the youngest child - Eilida.

It doesn't take Officer Alice Burkhalder long to piece together enough evidence to pinpoint a possible suspect. Circumstancial evidence though, won't bring him to justice. She dedicates her career and life to tracking the killer who uses hurricanes as a cover for his deranged need to murder, always leaving behind the youngest child.

Evan O'Conner spent eight years in a mental institution after the vicious unsolved murders of his abusive parents. At eighteen he is released into society. He has a single thought and motive operandi - to make his mother pay. She haunts his thoughts as he transforms into a calculating serial killer.

Will Alice Burkhalder bring Evan O'Conner to justice or will someone else get to him first? Someone who has a vendetta against him.

Hang on tight as you read this gritty nail-biting, psychological cat and mouse thriller!

Ginger Storm by J.P. Rice

The fantasy blends seemlessly with the real world!

My Thoughts:
I really like the main character. She's fierce, smart and calculating. That's rare to find, so many stories with female leads make the stupidest decisions mostly for love. Not this one. She jumps from one adventure to the next, never a dull moment and she's always thinking.
The author seamlessly like a second skin wove in supernatural elements. All the creatures, shfters, dragons, gods, vampires all feel real. Nothing is forced. The entire story flows well with adventure lurking on every page. It's the type of book that's hard to put down, capturing the readers interest start to finish.

I definitely reccomend this book to anyone who enjoys action, adventure and supernatural!

Zach's Cross by E.M.G. Wixley

Another page-turner by E.M.G. Wixley!



My Thoughts:
First, I'm going to say the sound effects are a pretty awesome touch!


Now for the story. Eve is stuck in a marriage going nowhere and turns to another man, Rubin. That gets interesting fast and both are dropped into the middle of a batte between good and evil. The story is fast paced, great descriptions and character building. Wixley never stops driving the plot. This is one that will keep you on the edge!

Soul Bound: Dweller Saga Book 1 by A.J. Flowers

Soul Bound is a unique read. It's weird but weird in a good way. The kind that keeps the pages turning.



My opinion:
Thane one of the main characters melds his soul with Jacob a young human man in order to save the gods. Thane and Jacob  become nearly one over the years as their souls mesh. It turns out Jacob's soul is ancient and somehow the savior that Thane is seeking to save the god's. I enjoyed how Thane and Jacob meshed together.  The author did a fantastic job with their characters and dropping enough clues to understand how they are one body and two souls.


I was a bit confused with the ather and how that worked. I love the idea of it but wish the author had given more information on that earlier in the story. Overall, it's an epic journey embarked on by Jacob and Thane. They meet some interesting creatures with plenty of action and adventure. I think the narrator's pacing and voice do the story justice.

My story Bone Stars is a modern-ish Hansel and Gretal, well Grenna is descended from Hansel. She is a bit OCD about her studies, has a magical talent that she's kept very quiet and is ready to open up and finally accept magic - maybe.

Grenna isn't too thrilled to attend the Once Upon Academy. She was hoping for something less magical and more Ivy League, until she meets Mandevar, a magic physics major who’s hot under his apparent nerdiness and begins to think otherwise.

Their first date is where the adventure begins. Mandevar is a bit of a mystery and continues to surprise her. Turns out he isn't the only surprise when they get lost together in an enchanted forest.
