Review: Drink Deep

Drink Deep by Chloe Neill My rating: 4 of 5 stars Yet another series I started in the wrong order, but was totally at the mercy of my local library – you read what they have (am on waiting list for earlier titles, but I’ve never been a patient person). A true test is a [...]

Reality In Fiction

No one likes a perfect character. That too-true-to-be-believed character no one can relate to. Same thing goes with the plot and story. The world-building exists to enhance a reader’s escape, and one wrong move can shake that suspended-disbelief and bring it all crashing down… I own a bl...

BULLYING Is A Mean Word…

Characters 101 – ALA MacGyver ABC’s

I was a huge MacGyver fan when it was new. My kids are now huge fans of the DVD’s. C’mon, what’s not to love about MacGyver? They built a whole series around the ULTIMATE beta hero. Character is the KEY to Story. Character is what creates, builds and drives a story. If you don̵...

Review: Warprize

Warprize by Elizabeth Vaughan My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is my all-time favorite book EVER, as in of-the-read-it-to-tatters variety. The heroine Xylara takes pity on enemy prisoners, defying her brother’s orders to do so. When the enemy leader defeats her brother’s army, the conqueror&...

Mercenary’s Promise by Sharron McClellan My rating: 3 of 5 stars White American girl goes down to Columbia to rescue her sister. Remind you of anything? Seriously, if you guessed “Romancing the Stone” you’d be half-right. It’s “Romancing the Stone” meets ...
