Review: Ten Big Ones

Ten Big Ones Ten Big Ones by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Any book with Sally Sweet is amazing! I love love love him! I wish that he could have been in every book after he was introduced. But I'm sure that would be overdoing it. Stephanie is pretty much a loner. She has people she associates with and cares about, but for the most part, she likes to be by herself. I think that's why I love this series so much. I relate so much to her.

There's not really much I dislike about this book. This isn't my first time reading this book, but it may as well. For some reason, I couldn't remember much details at all about this book. I still can't figure out why. I loved it though. I fully recommend this series!

Review: Bonded

Bonded Bonded by Cheryllynn Dyess
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was incredibly adorable. I loved every page! I wanted to pull myself into the book and live in that world forever! I would have in a heartbeat too! If I could get away with it of course. The characters are so loveable and the story was insanely sweet. I fully encourage everybody to read it. It's light and fluffy with just enough serious undertones to not be taken too lightly.

The author is amazing. This is not the first book I've read by her and I can promise you it won't be my last. This author has an amazing talent with taking a topic and giving her own unique spin to it. Think you've already read an x amount of books just like it? You're wrong! I fully recommend this author to those who haven't tried her before!

Review: Shades of Fury

Shades of Fury Shades of Fury by Heather Renee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really really enjoyed this book. The main character reminds me so much of Rose Hathaway from the Vampire Academy series. Which if you haven't read, I fully recommend. She's feisty and strong. I know it's ironic to compare her to a character in a vampire series, but yeah. The story itself was amazing too. It was like Criminal Minds does Supernatural but with darker undertones.

I will give this one very important piece of information. Please make sure to have the next book available on hand. This one leaves off on a bit of a cliff hanger. I'm not a fan of cliff hangers, but I'm not sure anybody is. I would have grabbed the next book without the cliff hanger though. So it works! Fully recommend!

The narrator was pretty amazing too. She is quite talented.

Review: The Language of Flowers

The Language of Flowers The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was very insightfully deep. I enjoyed it from the very beginning. There were times that I wanted to shake Victoria because she was being so stubborn. But I understood why she was being the way she was being. It's very hard to trust when you grow up with no love, compassion, or kindness. It was nice to watch her grow in the book.

The only thing I didn't like about the book was that it ended! I wanted to keep reading and reading this beautiful story. It would have probably been nice to see other points of view of this too. Even if that made the book longer. Especially Elisabeth's. I really enjoyed this book regardless.

I read the first part of the book and listened to the rest. The narrator did a fantastic job. She definitely added a lot to the book. Not that it needed it, but there it is.

Review: The Reapers

The Reapers The Reapers by Ali Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I think I have just stumbled upon another favorite series of all time! I won't know until I've read the rest of the series, of course. My gut tells me that I'm right though. I'm debating on listening to the whole series in honor of listening to the first one. Either way, I'm getting my hands on the rest of this series. Even if it doesn't become one of my favorites, I will devour this series. I will absolutely love it!

The narrator did a really great job. I adored hearing it. She gave a flair to an already great story that I just loved! The only real problem I had with this story at all is the fact that I can't say the story matched the blurb presented for it. They were similar but I feel like the blurb put more focus on things that the story really didn't. Just my opinion though. Still loved it and still fully recommend!

Review: Blinded

Blinded Blinded by Lyz Kelley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such a beautiful and wholesome story. It didn't gloss over how nasty people can be with people with disabilities. Struggling from some disabilities myself, I can appreciate that fact greatly. It gets old having people acting like people aren't judged and looked down on for having a disability. But I digress. The story was so beautiful. I enjoyed it so much. If I could have listened to it in one sitting, I would have. Darn having things to do!

I do have a small dislike with this, but I'm not sure how to hand it without giving spoilers. I'm a little disappointed that a part of the story was left unsolved. This is a series, but it seems like a standalone series. I'm hoping I'm wrong. I'm hoping there will be answers that I'm looking for. We shall see. Other than that, I had no problems with the book. I enjoyed it very much. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I may listen to them as well since the narrator was so great!

Review: Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, #14)

Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, #14) Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, #14) by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I can't say this is one of my favorites of the books, but I didn't hate it either. It had all the usual disastrous moments that made me laugh out loud. But there were parts that just made me feel like they didn't have their usual flair. The drama in the book seemed to be toned down. Maybe that was just me reading too much into it though. One of my favorite Plum characters was in this. The Mooner. I seriously wish he was in the series a whole lot more. I adore him!

I'm finally at the point in the series where I paused it. Not that I did that on purpose. I just didn't have the books from this point on and when I finally got them all I forgot which one I left off on! So I just started them all over again. Which wound up being a good thing since I forgot a lot of important details. Still love the series and can't wait to read what I haven't read before!
