Review From Boyfriend And Myself:

We both really enjoyed this story. I held the book off so that he and I could listen to it together. We have listened to it together from beginning to end and we both loved it. We can't wait to listen to the second one. This is an excellent way to spend time together as well.

The narrator did a great job. I have no complaints about him or the book itself. I wound up picking up an ebook so I could read along now and then. It's available on Kindle Unlimited for those who would rather read instead of listening. Or read and listen. Fully enjoyed this.

Review: Finger Lickin' Fifteen

Finger Lickin' Fifteen by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a very interesting one. And a unique change of events. This time instead of Stephanie getting in the middle of shenanigans, it's Lula! She witnesses a murder! If that isn't enough for one book, Ranger is dealing with an issue that may bring his security company down.

I really enjoyed the book a lot. I feel like there was a lot of places that could have been drawn out a bit more and given a little more flair. But that's about it. This is my first time reading this book. I had forgotten where I left off in the series and thought it was here, but now I'm beginning to think it was twelve.

Review: Nectar and Ambrosia

Nectar and Ambrosia by E.M. Hamill
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My boyfriend and I listened to this together. I was originally intending to listen to it alone, but I listened to it for a bit without headphones and he loved what he was hearing. We started it over so we could hear it all together. Therefore, I'm giving him permission to have this review on his page. Especially since we are writing it together.

He feels that it was incredible that the only actual god in the book was Hera. The rest of the gods aren't actually gods. They are aliens. He felt that made the story very unique. I loved the take on the whole thing. It reminded me of two series that I have read before that I rather enjoyed.

The story was the perfect balance of serious and suspenseful and hilarious. There was romance in it, but it didn't overshadow the actual point of the story. That's really refreshing. It was a very clean book. I think that's something my boyfriend liked best of all!

Overall, we fully recommend. I'm not sure if I've listened to this narrator before, but either way, she was fantastic! I was very impressed with her. I believe my boyfriend was too.

Review: Visions of Sugar Plums

Visions of Sugar Plums by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a very light and silly book. I enjoyed it very much. I also felt this was a very creative way to introduce a new character. Not that this author has ever had issues introducing new characters. I'm just saying. I really enjoyed this book.

I do feel that there were a lot of things that were kind of rushed over and not really explained all that well. But this book did seem to be a bit shorter than most. I won't really complain too much. The story seemed like a bonus story more than an actual one. It also seemed like it was an introduction more than anything.

Review: my life as a pop album

my life as a pop album by L.J. Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really really really enjoyed this book! I think I've been waiting to get the chance to read this book since I read the first book. That was a beautiful and sad story. This story doesn't compare to that in the deep factor, but that's okay. It was a different story entirely and didn't need the depth. The narrator was terrific as always. She's one of my favorites.

I don't really have much to complain about as far as this book goes. I really related to Mia in so many ways. There were some things I wish had been explained in more detail. Especially a certain scene where Mia reveals something to her parents that she's kept a secret for a long time. I'd of liked to see more emotion and closure there.

Overall, I really enjoyed this. I can't wait to read many more books by this author. She really knows how to pull a reader in and emotionally wreck them in all the best ways possible. I fully recommend this book and the book before it.

Review: Gilead

Gilead by Marilynne Robinson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. It was very nostalgic and beautiful. It was like I walked into a person's journal and was reading everything they wrote. I realize that's most likely the point of this story. But yeah. That's how I felt. It was beautiful. It was very touching.

I got an audiobook because I needed to read this for the book club and my first impression of the book was that I wouldn't like it at all. I figured an audiobook would help persuade me to like it a little better. I'm glad to say I was wrong. It is a very wonderful book! I'll be reading the other two.

Review: Favor of the Gods

Favor of the Gods by Ali Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a very unique story. I really enjoyed it. The narrator was very great as well. This is a great book for something short and sweet. Something you can listen to all in one sitting. Like while doing chores or working out. It adds a nice twist to Greek mythology as we know it.

My only critique is that it just wasn't long enough. I felt like there were many issues that should have been enhanced upon. I'd of liked to see more scenes that were mentioned or referenced but not really put in. That being said, it was great the way it was. I fully recommend.
