4 stars — OK, this is going to be another terrible review because I did a terrible job writing down my thoughts…woops, sorry! Still hilarious. The banter, the witty writing, loving it. Dephne is a delightfully sassy and sarcastic witch. Annette is hilarious. Still a bit repetitive at times and feels like not a lot […]
DNF @ end of Chapter 1 — Wow. I mean, I had a feeling this might not work for me because I have very mixed reactions to books by this author (who I think I’m officially marking as not for me). But I still expected to get farther than the end of chapter 1. It […]
4 stars — Well, Raven wasn’t what I was expecting AT ALL. Which, was kind of the point…but I have mixed feelings about that, because I enjoyed her persona. At the same time, I really appreciated the story of the REAL Raven, and how she struggled with letting people see the real her. I did […]
4.5 stars — Okay, I will admit that I remember feeling pretty satisfied until the twist at the very end of Defiance, and thinking that Fenn and Peree didn’t need another book. But after reading The Gatherer short story (highly recommend before reading this one), and having just finished the story, I will admit that […]
3.5 stars — Cashol definitely stole the show in this one. Which is not to say that Megan was unlikeable, it’s just that Cashol…well, he was adorable. Teasing and adoring, but also strangely vulnerable in his own way. Megan was a bit harder for me to connect with at times, just because of how extreme […]
4.5 stars — Well wasn’t that all that and a bag of chips! This is technically my 3rd time reading this book, though it has changed over that time. I think this final copy is just about perfect: it has humour, action, suspense, mystery, great friendships, and a splash of romance. Tessana is everything I […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — and maybe part of the reason I rate it so highly is that I wasn’t sure if I would like this book. I had it on my wishlist a long time ago b/c of a giveaway I entered, so by the time it went on sale and I got it […]
3.5 stars — This book was VERY much outside of my comfort zone. I won’t say there was no romance, but it truly was the backgroundest of background romances. I was anticipating a story told from one major POV (with maybe sprinklings of others), but this was truly a large cast book. That doesn’t tend […]
4 stars — The humour on this one sucked me in practically from the first page and was picture Lenore perfect right to the end. The snarky wise-cracking between Dephne and Annette was just *mwah* perfection. If I hadn’t listened to most of it, I probably would have highlighted a whole schwakload of their banter, […]
3.5 stars — This was fairly different from most books I read, most especially for the lack of romance…but that seems to be the picks I gravitate to for my hubby buddy reads. And this was a book club book…for June, but whatever, so I’m a wee bit late. 😛 I definitely enjoyed it, though […]
