I was lucky enough to win a copy of this in a giveaway. It was a very quick read, nothing really different from what I expected, basically exactly the type of story you’d expect from the title. I feel there were some things that were missed that could have definitely added to the story, but… Read more »
240+ Pages WITH BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS ~ Kira Sutherland ~ After a near fatal accident (and getting cheated on by her ‘boyfriend’), and beating up the lead cheerleader (with whom the boyfriend cheated…), and being labeled as having ‘issues’ in her school because she, uhm, sees ghosts, Kira is left with two choices: 1.

First, thanks to Edelweiss and Balzer and Bray for allowing me to read an egalley of this one. In the end I’d kind of classify this as a bit of a steampunk type of story, as well as western and fantasy. And while I’m not normally a fan of steampunk, the way it was done… Read more »

I have been a huge James Rollins fan for a long time. But in the past few years I’ve kind of slacked off on reading his books. His Sigma Series I really enjoyed at first, but just haven’t been in the mood to pick up and read, so now I’m a few books behind in… Read more »
Once again I must ask myself why I waited so long to read this book! Kagawa’s writing is the kind I really like. It draws me in and makes it hard for me to put the book down. This is a much different story than the Blood of Eden series, obviously as this one is about… Read more »
