Quickie Book Review- Fillies and Females by Bev Pettersen
Fillies and Females by Bev Pettersen My rating: 4 of 5 stars I really liked this book, even when I wanted to smack the main character Becky over her naivety at a few points. Mystery, romance, and horses! What more could a girl ask for? (Pettersen has another great horsey book – “Thoroughbreds and Trailer […]

Losing Hope by Colleen Hoover My rating: 5 of 5 stars (Insert contented sigh here, please) I loved reading Hopeless, so I knew I was probably going to like Losing Hope as well. But I was wrong. I didn’t just like it– I fell into it, loved it, and was sad to see it end. […]

Quickie Book Reviews – Witch Bound by Eleri Stone
Witch Bound by Eleri Stone My rating: 4 of 5 stars Although this novel is the second in this fantasy series, it stands alone well enough that I didn’t feel lost. I will certainly go back and read the first one now, so that I can wallow in the details that were hinted at in […]
