Keep Reading, It Only Gets Better.. or Not

May 202013

As a blogger, we have access to numerous novels not yet released. It’s like putting a kid in a candy store without a parent in sight and it is absolutely glorious. I’m so grateful for those advance reader copies because if I want to read a brand new story every day, I can do so. Even with an endless supply of advance reader copies, a continuing story in a established series draws me in even more. Why you ask? You already know the characters, the setting and the general storyline. The author can take an already developed storyline [ Read More of this Review ]

An Oldie But a Goodie: A Company of Swans by Eva Ibbotson

Today we start a new bi-monthly feature where we share with you some ‘oldies’ that we think deserve your attention because they are GREAT. What’s our definition of an oldie, you might ask? Any book published before the 21st Century (1999 or earlier) that is also available in ebook or at least has recent re-prints – we definitely don’t want to recommend you something that you won’t be able to get! So sit, relax and enjoy this great recommendation – you can thank us later.

Eternal Rider by Larissa Ione Lords of Deliverance Book 1 AH’s Review – A I’m a sucker for books that take Biblical themes and build upon them. Angels, demons, images of heaven and hell, obscure Biblical and apocryphal stories – I love it. Larissa Ione’s Eternal Rider gives the story a modern flavor. The series builds upon the author’s Demonica series and is best read after Sin Undone. Many of the Demonica character favorites appear in this spin-off series. Larissa Ione has superb storytelling skills. From the first page to the last, the book was [ Read More of this Review ]

Immortal Rider by Larissa Ione Lords of Deliverance #2 Release Date: November 22, 2011 I bought this novel on Amazon Erika’s Review Grade: B+ Larissa Ione is one of my auto-buy authors. Her world building is amazing. Seriously, totally freaking awesome. So awesome you feel like what you are reading is really happening, and if you were to look out your window or turn on the news you would see pestilences diseases coursing through humans, and Demons roaming free. That being said, I loved MOST of this book. I don’t want to re-hash the plot–so to speak. [ Read More of this Review ]
