I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review.

Raven is the first ever female grim reaper. Unlike the male version, she wears a skin fitted black leather uniform and has black wings. Suddenly, many years later, there's a new female reaper in purgatory, her name is Holli. She's the polar opposite of Raven, with long platinum blonde hair, white uniform and white wings. Death's excuse is that she's there to assist Raven with the sudden influx of phenoms. This makes Raven suspicious, and with the help of her best friend Garrett they begin to unravel a huge mystery. Will Raven ever get over her jealousy of Holli? Will Garrett and Raven uncover Death's sinister plot before it's too late?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Raven is a strong female character that I absolutely loved. She had so much love and compassion for humanity that you immediately connect with her. I thought that the relationship between Raven and Garrett was awesome and I could easily see why Raven cared about him so much. This was a great edge of your seat fantasy novel, I'm hoping there will be a book two, if there is, I can't wait!… (meer)

Fairy Tale Confessions door M. CLARKE

Fairy Tale confessions is amazing!! Each story is short, but incredibly well written. Its amazing how much you can fall in love with the characters in such a short time. My favorites were Blayze and Ash by Jessica Sorensen and Caged by LP Dover. Both stories are so engaging you won't want them to end. You get sucked in so deep! Seriously, get this book! Fairy Tale Confessions is perfect if you love romance, fairy tales, magic, mystery, and/or evil villains! There isn't a bad story in the bunch!

The Witches of BlackBrook door Tish Thawer

I have read a lot of the history of the Salem Witch Trials, and I love fictional books with those aspects and themes. So I was excited for this book because it's been a while since I've read a good witchy story. Unfortunately this book fell extremely flat for me and I almost DNF'd it several times.

I was unable to connect to any single character, or the group of them as a whole. They were all very one-dimensional to me and I didn't feel like they showed any emotion. The bulk of the story seemed like dialogue. Very proper dialogue. The characters had these proper yet stilted conversations that were just a little to clean and neat and without an iota of emotion. And now I'm being repetitive because I can't think of anything else to say. I would have liked to see some kind of inner monologue or freak out when the characters were fighting or when there was a death, but each situation was dealt with in a few sentences and we moved on.

So the story didn't make me feel anything but "meh". Because I couldn't connect, I also couldn't get invested in the romance or drama (which was somewhat predictable). And after finishing, I kinda wished I would've DNF'd and moved on to something else.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Unfortunately it didn't work for me. 2 stars / 1 flame.… (meer)

Scent of a White Rose (The Rose Trilogy, #1) door Tish Thawer

Anyone who knows me knows that paranormal romance is a genre I rarely touch. So I didn't know what to expect. But I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I found the characters to be well developed. I enjoyed the way the story is told from several vantage points, keeping it fresh. And it definitely kept my attention, keeping me on my toes on what will happen next. Still not my favorite genre but I do look forward to the rest of the series as it is released. A great start to a series from a first time published author.… (meer)
