I enjoyed this one more than I did Fantasy Lover, but it still doesn’t quite make the favorites. Although it was a great read for paranormal romance lovers and I enjoyed it! I think it’s awesome when a series switches characters each book and still ties them all together. Julian talked much of Kyrian in the first book, so I felt like I kind of knew him already when he was introduced in this one. I also got to meet […]

Knowing someone means you know who they were in the past. Anything else is just a glimmer of possibility, a distant hope, and probably wishful thinking.   Glimmer was a freaky book with a refreshingly original plot that kept me on my toes! It grabbed me right away with two strangers waking up in bed together with no recollection of how they got there or who they are. The memory loss of the narrators makes it so that you as a reader have no clue […]

Before I read this, with the mention of Night and Day students I just couldn’t help myself…I immediately thought of this: So of course I was intrigued! It ended up being almost nothing like Vampire Knight, though, and I was pleasantly surprised at how unique the story was. I usually despise love triangles, but this one wasn’t bad at all. I gotta hand it to Phoenix, she stuck with her decision. It was never really a competition for her. And […]

To be honest, I’ve been dreading writing this review. These are the hardest to write for me, reviews for those books that don’t spark any passion toward love or hate at all. It’s not that I thought this was a bad book…it’s still 3 starfish for me, but I guess I just couldn’t connect. The plot was decent and the ideas were fresh – I haven’t read anything else like it before. The ideas such as the Hollow, Grays, nexus, […]

This book was a quick and easy read and great for romance lovers everywhere! It’s been a while since I read a PNR…in fact, I think the last one was KMM’s Highlander Series. This book reminded me a bit of those in a way. Being a romance though, the plot was a bit predictable. But it was still good! This book is definitely at an adult level because of the steamy scenes. And man, where they hot! I felt like […]

Review: Unholy Ghosts by Stacia Kane

After all the hype over this series and Stacia Kane’s work, I was expecting much, much more. I’m afraid I ended up being disappointed. To be honest, I almost DNFed this one in the first 100 pages. It didn’t get interesting for me until around 170 when Tyson entered the story, and it finally picked up. That’s a little too much boring for my taste.   My next problem was that I felt like I was dumped in the middle of […]
