Secrets, lies, and danger, indeed! Slide was a fast-paced thriller with a plot that was crazy and twisted – I flew through this book in a matter of a few short hours because I didn’t want to put it down. The question of ‘Who is the killer?’ kept me thoroughly intrigued. Even though I rarely pick up mysteries, I enjoy reading them and trying to figure out what’s going to happen. Slide was a bit predictable, I’m afraid. I had a feeling of […]

From there on this book was a riveting mixture of adventure, danger, and excitement. I loved it!   The Virals bite off more than […]

While I did like this book, there really wasn’t much of a plot line involved. I did enjoy the development of the relationship between David and Leena. I always love a good romance ;) Even without much going on though, this book still held my attention (believe me, not an easy task). The strange and unexplained happenings in Frost House left me wanting answers. You start to wonder if Celeste is doing the things to herself, if one of the […]
