The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back
The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back

Review:This is a cute story about teenage love, insecurity, tempers, competition and odd relationships...and also a lot of misunderstanding between people who are so wrapped up in protecting their own feelings they really don't know those they should be closest to. It is a new twist on the Cinderella story that will make you laugh and cry as you remember those tumultuous, really, really, really difficult teenage years. Read more

Myths to Live By
Myths to Live By

Review:It was ok but the author (Joseph Campbell) of this book was from the 1960s and I do have the DVD by the same author on the same subject.. I enjoy reading about Myths and the possible connection with some of its concepts with our Major Religions. My curiosity is because of my lifetime Christian experiences both in our Lutheran Church and in real life. The book then begs the question "Are religions (specific ones ) and Myths more or less one and the same and does that trump peoples faith....a qu... Read more

A Fantasy Romance of The Black Court (Tales of The Black Court Book 1)

Review:Enjoyed reading this book. It's a different take on an old story. I really liked the puca character. The chemistry between Logan and Trina was amazing. The downside of Trinas character is she was constantly whining about being left behind even when she acknowledged that was for the best and also constantly questioning Logan's motives. Read more

Review:I love this this series, I love the characters Ms. McGuire has developed and am looking forward to see what adventures they get into this time around.
Unfortunately, this installment was almost unreadable due to glitches, I have missing sections and formatting issues where the text changes sizes every few pages. It is frustrating not knowing what I may have missed. Read more

Review:An inventive take on fairytales in modern times. The serial approach took a little getting used to for me; it doesn't flow in the same way a novella would. Between the multiple chapter releases and the storytelling style this felt a bit more like a TV show and I could easily imagine it as one. Looking forward to the next series! Read more

Olympos
Olympos

Review:Even now, decades after you'd think that such ideas have passed, some people still have a prejudice against science fiction as some sort of unsophisticated kiddie fare. If there was ever an author to show just how wrong that belief is, it would be Dan Simmons, who is able to write novels that are not only great science fiction, but great literature as well. The two are not mutually exclusive, as his novel Olympos demonstrates.

Olympos is the second part of Simmons's grand 1600+ page epi... Read more
