Review: Blue Lily, Lily Blue

Blue Lily, Lily Blue Blue Lily, Lily Blue by Maggie Stiefvater
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I liked this book best so far. I'm not sure if this is because I know the characters now, or if the story is progressing in a way I like. Either way, it's still keeping me interested and curious.

My favorite is still the narrator Will Patton. He is amazing, and his voices are spot on. No matter what he narrates, I will listen.

Review: The Angel of Death

The Angel of Death The Angel of Death by Elicia Hyder
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I tried to pace myself, but I read this every chance I got! I love this series, and I feel like these characters are my friends. I wonder about them when I'm waiting for the next book, and I re-read the books when I have a lapse in good books keeping my attention.

Angels, Demons, and Humans. What more is there to say? Read it. Seriously.

Review: Second Coming

Second Coming Second Coming by Amanda Carney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such a great PNR! The cliffhanger in book 1 picked up at the same spot in book 2, and wrapped up nicely by the end. With the introduction of multiple paranormal character types, the story takes off, and becomes quite intense. I hope that Amanda Carney continues to write about these characters, I'd love to know what happens next in their lives.

Review: First Fruits

First Fruits First Fruits by Amanda Carney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Different, but not. It's a paranormal romance, for sure. It's not too weighed down with sex, but it's there. What's extra nice is the fact that there is a very good story, and it takes the stage throughout. If you've ever read the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series, you know that what started out amazingly good, turned to nothing but group sex and almost no story. I don't see this happening with Amanda Carney. There is real talent there, and it's based in a solid story.

Great book for discussion too, if you belong to a book club. Add this one to your lists! I'll be reading the next in the series soon.

*I received a free copy of the book for an honest review.

Hounded (The Iron Druid Chronicles #1) by Kevin Hearne (Goodreads Author) (Narrator: Luke Daniels)

Hounded (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #1)Hounded by Kevin Hearne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was into the book from the first sentence. It was fun, interesting, and has a great foundation for more books. I'm happy I have this book a shot.

I liked the narrator very much. Luke Daniels did some great voices, especially for Oberon.

Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard, Narrated by Amanda Dolan

Red Queen (Red Queen, #1)Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The audiobook of this was wonderful. Narrated by Amanda Dolan, I fell into this story easily. Her voices consistent, I cannot imagine anyone else narrating these books.

This story seems familiar, and like the somewhat typical story of an undesirable rising to power by luck and chance, but it is more. I felt like I'd heard this story many times, but since I enjoy it, I didn't mind. Then suddenly after I'd listened to about 80% of the book, something changed.

I've read reviews where people gave up reading this book 40%, 50%, 60% into the story, because they were bored. Don't be them. Wait for it...

Wait for it...
