Book: The Opportunist by Tarryn Fisher
Finished: June 1, 2015
Rating: 5*

Review: I am heartbroken right now. I know what it's like to love someone so much that you might not always do the right thing to be with him. It was so sad seeing Olivia do things she knew were wrong but felt she needed to do. In my early twenties I did some questionable things to "get" the guy I knew was my everything. Now 15 years later, I still have that guy and he knows my naughty secrets. I think when you are young you sometimes feel like you can literally die from loving too much. Which is also why I liked Olivia so much...she grew up. I don't think you can have a more dreamy guy than Caleb Drake! The way he made Olivia go out with him....so perfect. I adored his patience. I feel both happy and sad at the ending. For both Olivia and Caleb.

I feel like this may be the most personal review I'll write. I just related so much to wanting someone so badly. I LOVED everything about this book! It's my first Tarryn Fisher book. It will not be my last because I'm literally going to begin Dirty Red when I'm done here. (Never, Never doesn't count cuz it's with CoHo!)

One last thing...Leah is a bitch! Although, I kinda understood her too.

Up From the Grave by Jeaniene Frost
Finished 3-June
Rating: 5*

Review.

Time for me to say goodbye to Cat & Bones, I have thoroughly enjoyed this series, and a PNR no less (and I HATE PNR!!)
A great story to end with a bang and let all of the little stories tie up.

All of the gang was there.
I was left with a couple of questions about Madigan but part from that it rocked !!

Review: Devlin's changing relationships with the people in his life manages to keep each of these books feeling fresh. I wasn't super crazy about the mystery in this one, as it didn't have very many layers. Despite its simplicity, I still adore the characters and setting. This continues to be one of my favorite series.

Review: This was a cute little read! I loved the MC, she reminds me of me. She was sassy when needed and was a strong character. I loved the dragon as well. Tiger was probably my fav character. The writing is a bit out there and there's a lot of info and names i have no luck of remembering. I'm pretty excited to see how book 2 will take the story further, since there is now 2 dragons :D

Review: It was actually interesting this time, but as a reader I still couldn't come to the same result as Sherlock because no one would ever think that the victims would come back to life :(
This time again, the story is divided in two parts, like in the first book, explaining the past of the secondary characters which was totally unnecesary and could've been told in five sentences.

Just waiting for Denise's review and we can roll :o)

[VNerdbooks]

I've sent a message to Denise, I hope everything is okay, I'm sure RL has just got in the way (grr real life sucks)
.If she doesn't come back is everyone okay for me to use the free pass this week?

[VNerdbooks]

btw Heather if you haven't read it then I would recommend Black iris to you, I've just finished it, and WOW!!!!

Think Tarryn Fisher with a devil love child and the book that would come out of that haha!

Anyway considering the books you're reading I think you'll like it!

[Denise, Manufacturing Director]

SO sorry for the delay, RL has been kicking my ass today. >.< Here goes:

Spot: 87
Read: Eighth Grave After Dark by Darynda Jones (Charley Davidson #8)
Finished: 05 June 2015
Rating: ****

Review:
Cooped up in the Convent for the past 8 months for protection, Charley is about to give birth to her daughter. But instead of being able to just rest and relax until the baby comes, there's quite a lot going on to keep her busy: Cookie's wedding, a missing teenage girl, Reyes's birth parents in town, and more and more departed gathering around Charley's sanctuary among whom spies for the prospective grandfather, Lucifer himself, are hiding and keeping a close eye on all that Charley and her friends and family are up to. A thoroughly entertaining read, with an ending that promises a very interesting start for book 9.

[VNerdbooks]

Ah thanks Denise sorry to be a pain in the butt lol.

[Denise, Manufacturing Director]
