Gio by Elizabeth Reyes

I was really looking forward to Gio after reading the first book in the 5th Street series Noah. Although the writing was every bit as good as the first and all the characters I had come to really love in the first book are present and accounted for, this book was a chore for me to get through. I had to keep putting it down and going back to it when I had […]

She nursed her mother through a long sickness and after her mother died, Roni found herself comfort eating to help cope with her […]

This is the story of Sarah, a young war widow. Her husband was killed in action about a year and a half prior to the beginning of book and Sarah has withdrawn into herself. […]

Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed Falling Kingdoms. I was expecting a novel that was somewhat Game of Thrones-lite but instead the storyline was fairly complex and the setting, although not overly original, was interesting and richly detailed. The story takes place across three very different kingdoms: Limeros, Paelsia and Auranos. Limeros, the Northern kingdom, is ruled by a tyrannical King who instills fear in the populace […]
