A Caryn Review: Midnight Flit (The Carstairs Affairs #2) by Elin Gregory

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars I did not know when I read Eleventh Hour 3 years ago that there would be a sequel.  Three years, for me, is plenty of time to forget a book that wasn’t a standout, especially when I’m not waiting for a sequel.  Well, I remembered this book, and these… Continue reading A Caryn Review: Midnight Flit (The Carstairs Affairs #2) by Elin Gregory

A Caryn Review: Vampire with Benefits (Supernatural Selection #2) by E.J. Russell

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars So I finished Single White Incubus a few months ago, loved it, and wanted to know what happened with the other two guys who were left at the altar.  And of course, this author never disappoints me, so this is the story of Rusty Johnson, inactive beaver shifter, and… Continue reading A Caryn Review: Vampire with Benefits (Supernatural Selection #2) by E.J. Russell

A Caryn Review : Diego (Endangered Fae #2) by Angel Martinez

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars I am having so much fun reading fantasy books that incorporate ancient mythology!  Diego, the sequel to Finn, is all about Celtic mythology, mixing Irish deities with the Welsh, along with a bit of reincarnation and earthly as well as fae magic.  The end result is pure enchantment! The… Continue reading A Caryn Review : Diego (Endangered Fae #2) by Angel Martinez

A Caryn Review: The Weekend Bucket List by Mia Kerick

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars This is one of the best YA books I’ve ever read.  It is emphatically not a romance, and to be honest, that’s what makes it so wonderful. If you were asking for advice, Coop, I’d tell you that friendship is the deepest form of love.  But society deems the… Continue reading A Caryn Review: The Weekend Bucket List by Mia Kerick

A Caryn Release Day Review: When Everything is Blue by Laura Lascarso

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars Wow.  Just Wow.  This book is everything I love to read in a coming of age story, and I guess the only thing that surprised me is that it was not marketed as YA.  I would absolutely recommend this book to the YA crowd as well as to adults… Continue reading A Caryn Release Day Review: When Everything is Blue by Laura Lascarso

A Caryn Review: The Artist’s Touch (Art Medium #1) by E.J. Russell

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars Do you like ghost stories?  Do you like creepy ghost stories?  I have to say I didn’t think I did, but this book (and maybe the others to follow in the series) changed my mind.  The review, though, was kind of hard to write without giving significant spoilers, and… Continue reading A Caryn Review: The Artist’s Touch (Art Medium #1) by E.J. Russell

A Caryn Advent Release Day Review: The Holly Groweth Green by Amy Rae Durreson

Rating:  5 stars out of 5  This is easily my favorite of all the Christmas stories I’ve read so far this year.  I love this author to begin with (she’s on my auto-buy list) and once again she has not disappointed! This is a fairy tale:  not a retelling, but an original.  Although the setting… Continue reading A Caryn Advent Release Day Review: The Holly Groweth Green by Amy Rae Durreson

A Caryn Review: Safety Protocols for Human Holidays by Angel Martinez

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars Highly recommended as the cutest, funniest bit of holiday fluff I’ve read in a long time! This sci-fi story is set on an interspecies ship traveling in the distant universe.  For the most part, there is only one of any individual species on the ship.  There is only one… Continue reading A Caryn Review: Safety Protocols for Human Holidays by Angel Martinez

A Caryn Review: Bad Boy’s Bard (Fae Out of Water, #3) by E.J. Russell

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars Reading this book reminded me a little of my progression reading through J.R.R. Tolkein – The Hobbit’s simple characters give way to The Lord of the Rings darker tone and complex world, and The Silmarillion’s vast scope is tragic, and so detailed and interconnected that it was very hard… Continue reading A Caryn Review: Bad Boy’s Bard (Fae Out of Water, #3) by E.J. Russell
