Review:
Delightful! It's Christmas time and a film crew showed up at Buckshaw. What trouble will Flavia find this time? Let's see: A trap for Father Christmas (Flavia's very own Superglue), A Blizard, fireworks, and murder, to name some. And what's going on with Flavia's sisters, their actually nice in this book. I loved that we got to know a little more about Flavia's mother, Dad, and Dogger. Looking forward to reading the get book in the series! :)

Tricked (Iron Druid Chronicles, #4) by Kevin Hearne

Title: Tricked
Author: Kevin Hearne
Series: The Iron Druid Chronicles #4
Read date: 14.03.14
Rating: ★★★½
Review
I didn't like this one as much as previous books. Maybe because Atticus is dead and Reilly is on the scene now. OK, to run away from furious gods Atticus stages his death and moves away under different name. Since Coyote helped him to die, now Atticus needs to return the favor and create gold mine in the reservation. What Coyote forgets to mention is that there are some skin-walkers leaving near, so Atticus has to deal with them also.
Book is still funny and quick read.
Snugglepumpkin (Oberon) still rules.
I'm very very disappointed in Leif. He really is bloodsucker.

And now waiting for #5. Already got it from library. ☺


message 274: by Jenne (new)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments That one was my least favorite of the series. The next two make up for it though.
I'm a little over 1/2 way done with mine and it'll probably be late tonight when I finish. I've been reading blue prints for two days and my eyeballs are about to fall out lol.

Mouth To Mouth by Erin McCarthy

Review
this book was a fun frothy read. It was an easy read. Laurel a young women meeting a man from the intrenet only to find out that the man she was suppose to be meeting is a con man . However , she meets cop Russ Evans who was chasing the con man. It was very interesting with a deaf main character. Also had some interesting smut scenes : ). The problem with this one was the pacing. Everything happen immediately. The couple meets and fall in insta lust. they decide to start a physical relationship then boom they are instantly in love. The con man story is wrapped up very quickly as well. But all in all a fun read.

I really like the ones with the Lykae in them. It's that Scottish burr, gets wm every time! Mari was spunky and I liked her as a heroine. After the suffering we've seen Bowe go through in the previous books I was glad to se him get his HEA. I feel kinda dumb for being so reluctant to start these books!

In this fun and heart-warming story. Mma Ramotswe must investigates a boy's past from the Orphan Farm for Mma Potakwani. She and Mma Makutsi also helped find a girl with beauty and integrity for the local beauty pageant. Go Girl Power! I just love the characters of this series. Looking forward to reading the next book. :D

Lady Sophia's Lover (Bow Street Runners, #2) by Lisa Kleypas

Title: Lady Sophia's Lover
Author: Lisa Kleypas
Series: Bow Street Runners #2
Read date: 17.03.14.
Rating: ★★★½
Review:
It was predictable book. Sophia is seeking revenge and decided to get employment with Bow Street Runners' chief to get something dirty on him and to seduce him and then brake his hart. Of course that things doesn't go as she planned. Ross is widower who decided that he won't risk his heart to another woman. And that didn't went as planned. Sparks were flying as soon as they saw each other.
I missed all that 'suspense' part from first book. This was strictly romance and even those obstacles between them weren't that really.
But I'm still looking forward to 3rd book ('bad guy' from 2nd gets his book). ☺

I just don't know about this series. It's a little boring and then the last 25% will get pretty good. If I liked Kitty more I might enjoy these more than I have. She's just not kick butt enough for me. I think I'll try book 3 and if I don't like it more I probably won't continue the series.

Review: I love this series. It is about Juliet who used to be a public defender but quit to raise her children and now works as partner in a PI firm. This one has her investigating death of a actress that she found dead in the house she was considering buying. This book is a fun easy read. What I think of when I think of cozy mysteries.

I get warm fuzzies each time I read a book from this series. I love getting to know more tidbits about the lives of the characters, especially Mma Ramotswe, Mr. JLB Matekoni, and Mma Makutsi. The descriptions of Botswana are wonderful. Its feels like I'm right there drinking Bush Tea. :D

Nope. ☺
Unless you count his apprentice, but he's only looking. So far she's off limits for him. But if I got it correct, between last and this book, couple of years has passed, so her apprenticeship should be nearly finished.
