Review: Burn Bright by Patricia Briggs
Burn Bright by Patricia Briggs (Alpha & Omega #5) Released: March 6, 2018 Urban Fantasy Ace Reviewed by Mandi The Alpha & Omega series is set in the same world as Briggs' Mercy Thompson series. Over the years, I have found A&O to be consistently amazing, where as sometimes I find Mercy Thompson series to be just okay. (Although overall, both series swirl around as urban fantasy favorites). Briggs is a terrific storyteller. She presents strong, flawed, sometimes terrifying Continue Reading

Review: Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas
Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas (Ravenels #4) Released: February 27, 2018 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi "I was taught that satisfying a woman propery should take at least as long as making dough for bread." Garrett writhed helplessly. "How long is that?" "You don't know?" he asked, amused. "No, I can't cook." I read the Publishers Weekly's review of this book a few weeks ago, which pretty much slams it as a silly, non-plausible book and laughs it off. It made me have Continue Reading
