Favorite Quote: “Don’t worry. The best people all have some kind of scar.” I thought of Marlee’s hands and Maxon’s back. They both held permanent marks of their bravery. I was honored to join them. Where I used to imagine you as a girl with a bag full of stones, ready to throw them at […]
Favorite Quote: Love is beautiful fear. This book was a gift from my blogging wife Lenore. And I loved it! I will admit that the waffling back and forth was a bit overdone but this was a minor inconvenience compared to the way it was written. It was just weaved so beautifully. I thought the […]
3 stars — OK, I know this is going to sound childish, but I’m not a fan of not knowing ahead of time if a book is going to be the first of a series or a standalone. Does it matter in the end? I suppose not. But I find if I think it’s a […]
DNF @ chapter 15 — Yeah, perhaps it was a mistake to listen to this one *right* after finishing Obsidian. I think it would be better to read it when you’ve read more in the series and then you want extra. Because diving in right away, I felt like there was barely anything new added […]
The best thing about this story was not the romance but the world building and the interaction between tribes/species. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the romance, it was tactile and erotic and the chemistry was oh so yummy! But the island they lived on was so fascinating. How primative the tribes were was different […]
3.5 stars — Hmmm…well, this one was enjoyable, but it didn’t blow me away. Sometimes I think getting into a series so much later after it first released ends up dulling the shine a bit. I felt like there were a lot of similarities to Twilight. Not like the whole book, but just little aspects […]
4.5 stars — I gobbled this one up. I can honestly say that I truly believe that Caitlin Davies’s narration enhanced my reading experience. I wonder if I’d have enjoyed it quite this much if I’d just read it. She just adds so much to the performance that I can’t help but want to listen […]
4.5 stars — Wow. I’m just having a good old time listening to this series. I seriously had a hard time putting it down. I ended up just laying on the couch listening to it because I desperately wanted to know what was going to happen, and that’s just a sign of a perfect match […]
4-stars — OMG!! I mean, I totally knew this wasn’t going to be the last book in the series, and I know they always end with a lot of questions, but wow…it’s going to be seriously hard waiting for the next book, and I have NO IDEA what’s going to happen! This book went in […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 5 stars — Wow — just slightly out of character for the books I’m used to reading, especially in the paranormal type genre. Very dark, and heartbreaking at times. Vivid imagery, and the imagination to create this world…wow. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Loved Penryn and Raffe… Desperately wish the next book was out so […]
