Rarity from the Hallow review

Image
Rarity From the Hallow BY: Robert Eggleton This was a little different then most the books I review,  it is a children's story meant for adults.  If you like a non-fiction titles with a bit of biography (because its telling the life of Lucy.) this is your choice. Written by a retired children's psychotherapist  you can guess the book is different then anything you've read before. it's about: Lacy Dawn who is a little girl who lives in a magical forest where all the trees love her and she has a space alien friend who adores her and wants to make her queen of the universe. What’s more, all the boys admire her for her beauty and brains. Mommy is very beautiful and Daddy is very smart, and Daddy’s boss loves them all. Except. Lacy Dawn, the eleven year old protagonist, perches precariously between the psychosis of childhood and the multiple neuroses of adolescence, buffeted by powerful gusts of budding sexuality and infused with ...

The Hypnotic City Release

Image
For any of you fans of the Heartless City. (You remember the book that you couldn't put down once you started reading it yeah that was The Heartless City.) The talented Andrea Berthot author of the Heartless City  has just confirmed over all her social media's, ( I also got the scoop personally from her, ) that on August 25 of 2016 her newest novel will be the released The Hypnotic city! Great title right! A  brief description of the book was posted on her blog here it is ;  Based in 1905, a young girl leaves London intent on becoming New York's brightest star - but is it her stage presence hypnotizing the audience, or something more sinister behind the scenes? Love it! So this tells us a little about what we can expect from the sequel , I for one am super excited! What we can know for sure is that  in this next book  Philomena plays a major role. (I'm pretty she is one of the main character,) and wil...

How to Rescue a Rake

How to Rescue a Rake by Jayne Fresina     If you like Lisa Kleypas and Julia Quinn you will love this new up and coming romance series. It has romance, cunning rivalries, heartbreak and a bit of jealousy plus a tad of mystery all in one.   Its about: Nathaniel Sherringham has returned to Hawcombe Prior a changed man.

The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever

Image
The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever by Jeff Strand To be completely honest the title of the book and what the book is actually about kind of through me but it is in the title (Movie.) I still enjoyed this book it was funny and a real breath of fresh air from what most zombie books are about these days.   It's about how after producing three horror films that went mostly ignored on YouTube, Justin and his filmmaking buddies  decide it's time to make something epic. In fact, they're going  to make The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever. They may not have  money or a script, but they have passion. And, after a rash text message, they also have the beautiful Alicia Howtz as the lead. Hemmed in by a one-month timeline and a cast of uncooperative extras, but aching to fulfill Alicia's dreams, Justin must face the sad, sad truth: he may, in actuality, be producing The Worst Zombie Movie Ever. I highly recommend guys should def...

The Tea Machine by Gill McKnight   The cover is stupendous, it draws you in and excites you. I personally love tea and steampunk stuff so this book was defiantly a winner for me.

When We Were: Book Review!

Image
When We Were By: Alexandra Diaz      This was such a great novel! Perfect to read with friends, or to read solo.   (I was comparing my friends the whole time, to the friends in the book and I have decided I'm defiantly Pinkie.)   When we were is fantastic! So funny! It's a novel which is full of life and relatable characters. I think it is a great coming of age novel that everyone should at least read once.   Also has a relationship all fans like me will be tearing their hair out till they find out if David gets the girl. I am a David fan forever!   Its about:   No one messes with Whitney Blaire or her friends, which is why she can’t help but let it slip that someone spotted Tara’s boyfriend making out with one of the guy cheerleaders. Even after spending hours training for her marathon, down-to-earth Tara can't outrun the rumors about the boyfriend she thought was perfect. Pinkie , the rock and "B...

Arrgh! Review

Image
Arrgh! By Stacey R. Campbell   This is a great way to introduce your kids to the life of Pirates, or shipmates. It's a fun, family friendly, book for all ages! I was very surprised at the kind of Narnia turn of the book, but I think a mouse is probably one of the best companions you can have on a ship! I highly recommend this book!   Its about:     Christopher who is Forced to remain silent after being kidnapped by pirates, and must find a way to save the Georgiana's captain and his daughter from the evil grasp of Red Blade. On this quest to fight for friendship and family no matter what, Christopher gets help from a wise mouse, a friendly cook, a feisty monkey, and the captain's daughter herself, but will it be enough to defeat a band of ruthless pirates determined to rule the Seven Seas?
