This is a Child Friendly area. I will be reviewing YA and Childrens books and posting ages I feel they are appropriate for. We will also host tours of new books and plenty of giveaways of book related gear and ebooks. We will also discuss things specifically related to home education. Bullying and Special Needs are topics we will be discussing here on this site. Thanks for stopping by, hope you stick around!Condyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00419198081214109291noreply@blogger.comBlogger146125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357161900959005835.post-56391077035689836002014-09-07T17:08:00.000+10:002014-09-07T17:08:10.980+10:00Spirit Warriors Tour and Review<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

But even as they rejoice, things are amiss. Emme watches helplessly as her family divides, and her friends struggle to hold their relationship together. Worse yet, the love-of-her life, Charlie, announces that he will move back to the reservation, without Emme. Different nightmares take over and Emme realizes she must fight and kill—or watch those she loves be killed. Friends from the reservation reach out to Emme and show her what evil can steal from her. Emme believes that evil can never break her bond with the Spirit Warriors or the love she shares with Charlie. Or can it?</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 1.29545454545455;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"> While this book can be read as a stand alone, I do suggest reading book 1 first. I really liked that this book did reference the events from book one so I wasn't lost. It was a very quick read and an enjoyable one. But it made me wish I had read book 1 first. The characters are relatable and they deal with things that a lot of teens deal with. This book left me wondering what is going to happen next. I for one can't wait to read book 3 and having read this one I plan on reading all three again when book 3 comes out.</span></span></div>

These friends also have a secret. They can move their spirits into animal bodies: an osprey, a mustang, a grizzly, a mountain lion and a coyote.</span></div>

Suspenseful, romantic, and awash in Native American magic, Spirit Warriors captures the tragic enchantment of the American West—and confirms the power of friendship.</span></div>

When she longed for the big city life, she moved to Texas where she attended college and received a PhD in nursing. When not nursing people back to health you can find Della huddled over her Mac writing the stories that have occupied her mind for so many years, or traveling with her best friends, the NOLA’s, riding bikes across the Golden Gate bridge or exploring botanical gardens. She is the proud mother of a champion triathlete, two aging dogs and 1 grand-cat.

<b style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></b>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Within these pages you will find a tale that will grab you and keep you on the edge of your seat. This book is perfect for all ages. The main character in the book is a thirteen year old boy, so boys younger and older will easily relate to him, yet he is not so all boy that a young girl couldn't likewise relate. It is a coming of age tale about a young boy who upon reaching his 13th year discovers something amazing, something life altering, something that reaches deep into the core of all his beliefs.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Beynn lived in a peaceful village. It was many years since the Sorak wars ended and the town was far from the border, so it was considered safe. Then the horrible happens, the Sorak invade this peaceful town looking for Beynn. But Beynn escaped with the help of his best friend, and in a story much reminiscent of the hobbit, he is sent on a mission of self-discovery and a quest to save his village.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I would highly recommend this book to any mid-grade level child or anyone looking for an old style fantasy story. This book will even peek the interest of the most reluctant of readers. </span></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hidden deep inside a meandering ravine, nestled beneath the dark oak trees of BlackMyst, the village of Veiled Gorge was a secret gem, revealed only to those curious and brave enough to follow the meager road that wound deep into the forested gully. Some twenty-five quaint and simple homes stood sheltered within the ravine, hidden beneath the forest’s mighty branches. Tucked away along the eastern border of Delvengard, Veiled Gorge was often forgotten or ignored by the outside world, and this suited the villagers just fine. Originally established as a commune for peace-loving peasants looking to escape the atrocities of the war-torn kingdom, Veiled Gorge remained a safe and secluded community.</span></div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
The village had evolved over the years from a mishmash of people with a common dream of peaceful living into a colony of talented woodworkers, fabricating fine works of art and furniture from the wood of the surrounding trees. The villagers worked in harmony as a collaborative team to create pieces to be sold or bartered to traveling merchants who frequently visited Veiled Gorge.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; text-align: start;">You aren't a tunnel of light, a choir of angels, or even an ascension of the soul. You are a twitching leg, a spasm of breath, a moment of fear when I realize that the noose I tied didn't snap my neck and I am left dangling with the chair tipped over too far from my toes. You are blackness blotting out my vision, my lungs heaving in breaths that aren't there, because the rope cuts into my throat choking the life out of me, slowly. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; text-align: start;">My fingers claw at the rope that I found in the closet behind liquor bottles and expired cans of vegetables. Life seeps out of me; the oxygen choked out, the carbon dioxide choked in. Where was the peace and quiet? Where was the release? The absence of fear? That is why I hid the rope under my mattress, why I waited till mom and dad left for work, why I climbed on a chair and tied the noose, why I wrapped it around my neck and pulled it tight, said a prayer, squeezed my eyes shut, and stepped off the chair. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; text-align: start;">Leaving the screams, the bruises, the scars, the secrets and loneliness behind.</span><br />

The floor is too far and I am too high. My chest caves in and just as blackness eats my last sliver of being conscious, I realize I regret. I realize I am too late. Death, you aren't beautiful or free or romantic like in all of the novels I have read. You are a girl who had no hope left, dangling from a ceiling beam who, two breaths too late, realized she wanted to live.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The Day He Died...<br />A Message from the Author of Two Breaths Too Late.</span><br />
<br />
He was about 6 when I met him. He was my new friend's younger brother and all long limbs, brown hair, and big brown eyes. He had one of the biggest smiles I had ever seen.<br />
<br />
The kid was brilliant. He read constantly. Loved learning. By 11, he was taking college classes. Languages. Science. His mind was a powerful beast that conquered many subjects. We all knew he would do amazing things with the brilliance he had within him.<br />
<br />
He would shine.
He would soar.<br />
<br />
We were all ready and waiting to see it happen.
We all grew up. I went to college. Gradated. Got married. He became a handsome teenager and was still wining over hearts (everyone loved him and that big smile). He joined a church band. Got his associates degree before 15. He had friends and a family who loved him.<br />
<br />
Then one night, he ran out of his house—his parents running after him—to the bridge that went over highway 95...and jumped.<br />
<br />
As a mother, I can't imagine that moment—that split second when you are looking at your child and his feet are solidly on the ground and he is so close to being within reach and that defining, heart breaking moment when he isn't any longer.<br />
<br />
He was 19.<br />
<br />
I heard the news by phone while standing in my kitchen. The shock rendered me breathless. What had happened to this brilliant young man? We found out later that he had been recently diagnosed with schizophrenia and after watching his brother have a fierce battle with the illness, he couldn't find the hope to live on.<br />
<br />
His family had everyone wear brightly colored shirts and his band played at the funeral. The music was joyous and beautiful and people hugged and danced as pictures of his beautiful smile were projected onto a huge screen.<br />
<br />
It had been the week of Easter.
It was a beautiful celebration of his life—a life that ended far too soon.
<br />
<br />
We have all suffered loss in some way. We know the ache. The feeling of too much space because something or someone is supposed to be there to fill it.<br />
<br />
The loss of someone to suicide happens everyday. Every minute. It is estimated that worldwide nearly a million people take their own lives.
One million fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons, daughters who are lost because they had no hope left.<br />
<br />
The day I found out about this brilliant young man's suicide, I was brought back to a moment years earlier, when I was 11 years old and standing on a chair with a noose dangling in front of me. I had stepped down from that chair that day—despite bruises, pain, loneliness, and secrets—and lived. Lived to see heart breaks, awards won, graduations, friendships, jobs, and a million other happy and terrible moments. Ugly or perfect, those moments were mine and there I stood in my kitchen with my round and pregnant belly and listened as my mother told me the news about a boy who had all those moments taken away.<br />
<br />
Almost a year ago, I posted a flash fiction piece I had written about suicide and a reader contacted me and said that I should write a novel based on it. I was intimidated. Scared. How could I take on something like that? It hit such a personal chord with me that I thought I might unravel in its creation.<br />
<br />
I am not going to lie. This novel always brings tears to my eyes. Not because I am a literary genius or a masterful story-teller, but because with every word I write and second that passes, I know there is someone out there who is deciding to give up on on their beautiful and terrible moments and my heart breaks and I wish I could type faster, or yell louder, or reach out and squeeze every single one of those one million souls and whisper, “Hold on...just a little longer.”<br />
<br />
This novel isn't about happy endings. It isn't about happily-ever-afters. It is about the beautiful and terrible moments that make up a life and the possibilities that live in even the darkest of places that sometimes we are just too blind to see.
I will use a portion of the proceeds from this novel to donate to To Write Love On Her Arms as well as launch a suicide prevention project entitled, HoldOn2Hope.<br />
<br />
The project will launch in September. If all goes well, there will be a LIVE event for teens in the DC metro area as well as the project's online media awareness component will last a full year.
My heart is in this project and I know that a project like this needs a ton of love and support to thrive.<br />
<br />
That's where you come in. I hope together we can change this staggering statistic.
I send you love and light today. Please know that you are precious in this big 'ol world and it would not be as bright or beautiful without you in it.<br />
XOXO,<br />
Rochelle<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">This is the second book in the "Girl with Broken Wings Series". It is a very quick and short read. I finished in less than an hour. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">The character development is much greater defined. You get to be inside her head a bit more and can understand her a bit more.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">All in all, a great short story, with some unique aspects. Again it is very short for a second installment in the story and it really doesn't help answer any questions you may have or give you a clear idea of where the story is going. Also beware the language in Coping is quite a bit more risque than in Falling with a pronounced use of the F bomb.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">I would consider this a great stepping stone to book 3. But I was a little let down by it not being longer. I give it a 3.5, mostly due to its length and not answering questions I had at the end of Falling.</span><br />

Horrifying visions of a past life and a disturbing voice in her head have psychiatric professionals convinced that she’s lost her sanity as well. But when Kale--a dark and handsome stranger with a mysterious past--reveals the true meaning of her visions and the tremendous power she wields through them, Ella must come to terms with the devastating truths of her own past, while eluding an ancient Dark Prince who seeks to control not only her future, but all of mankind’s, by means of abilities that Ella is only beginning to understand.</span></div>

But a renegade Chorý has other plans for the protection of a girl he has loved through the ages. Can Kale convince Ella of who she is, what she is destined to become, and what he once meant to her? Is he truly the best protector to shield the world from the devastating misuse of her powers that Laurent is bent on controlling? Or will the forbidden love they share and Kale’s cursed condition as a wretched and hated Chorý be used against them both?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: inherit;">So I received this book from the Author for my honest review. And I wasn't sure if I would like it or not, but boy am I glad the Author sent me it!</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: inherit;">The plot deals with some very intense and interesting twists. The story itself moves along quickly for the most part it was not only interesting but entertaining as well. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: inherit;">The characters were all well written and filled with emotion. I felt so bad for Ella and what she has to deal with after the death of her parents. I loved the other characters and how Ella fit in with all of them. This book has wonderful use of description and allows you the reader to be not only reading the story but actually part of it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #0000ee;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">All in all I highly recommend this book to anyone</span>!</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Straight out of the psyche ward, Cora just
wants her life to be normal. She doesn’t want to see souls or the reapers
collecting them. The love of her life, the guy she’s loved from a distance for
years, has moved away without saying goodbye. So yes, she’s nursing a serious
heartbreak. It’s no wonder love is the last thing on her mind when Echo storms
into her life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">The chemistry between them is mind-blowing.
The connection defies logic. It doesn’t help that Echo is the poster boy for
everything she hates in a guy—hot, beautiful, and cocky. A general
pain-in-the-butt. Being around him makes her feel more alive than she’s ever
felt before. But more important, the souls leave her alone when he is around.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Echo is perfect for her. Echo might even be her soul-mate. There is only one problem. Echo is a freaking soul reaper. A Grimnir. The very beings she wants out of her life. Maybe normal is overrated because Cora wants it all. Answers. Love. A life. You see, once you fall for a Grimnir, your life will never be the same again. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

After her parents death she can suddenly see ghosts. She winds up having a break down, but strange things are happening to Cora. Now I won't go into details here but suffice it to say her life is not as clear cut as she always thought it was. Cora is well written and an amazing character, but she isn't the only amazing character. Echo is a total love. He has such strong convictions, such character that you actually forget he is just a person in a book.</div>
<br />
Add in that touch of mythology, and you have the makings of a fabulous story. I must say I was so very frustrated when the story came to an end. I wanted to keep reading. I actually came close to throwing my kindle (heaven forbid). I just was not ready for this story to end.<br />
<br />
I loved the little twists and turns this book took. And I loved how the story progressed. I have to say this book is a great addition to any personal library, and I highly recommend this book. By the way, you should probably grab Runes and Immortals while your off grabbing this book.<br />

<span lang="EN-US">Kicker’s eyes widened, and even Drew stared
at me with a weird expression. Then I realized what I’d said. Dang, another
thing I should have known about. Seriously, I should just keep my mouth shut
when people talked about what had happened the last several weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">“What? That’s messed up,” Drew said and I realized they were talking.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">“You seriously can’t remember anything that
happened?” Drew asked, staring at me and standing smack in the middle of the
hallway. Students were forced to walk around him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">I shrugged. “The doctors said everything
would come rushing back whenever.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">“It’s no one’s fault. Things happen.”
Especially when the supernatural are involved. “I have to go. I don’t want to

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">He grabbed my arm. “You don’t understand.
We were, you know, kissing after we won, and I didn’t realize the crowd was
surging toward us. One second you were in my arms. The next someone pulled you
away while others pushed me down. I tried to find you. I should have tried
harder or held you tighter or—”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Drew smiled at her. He walked me to class
and somehow ended up inviting Kicker to his party, too. The look on her face
was comical. She’d never hung out with football players.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">For the rest of the morning, I searched for
the Valkyries and hoped Echo would do his appearing act. I was beginning to
worry about him, even though I knew I shouldn’t. He could take care of himself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Still, he’d better show up soon. I had
enough crap to deal with without worrying about him. When I didn’t see Raine
near our lockers, I sent her a text message. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">During lunch, Kicker filled me in on everything I’d “missed” and it wasn’t pretty. My anger shot up as they talked and laughed about someone defacing Raine’s locker and people treating her like crap because she’d known something bad was about to happen during that disastrous meet. Apparently, Eirik and the other me were the only ones who’d stuck by her. That they found that amazing made me want to smack them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I am a southern belle at heart with a crazy streak that desperately tries to escape at every opportunity. I love all things nostalgic, rustic, and quirky. I've been told I see the world through rose-colored glasses, but I prefer to think of them as kaleidoscope glasses - swirling and morphing reality into something I can digest (who hasn't pretended those pasty lima beans were really kiwi strawberry jelly beans?).</span></div>

I love all books, but really enjoy writing young adult, paranormal romances. I've loved to write for as long as I can remember. My first published work was my poem RED in second grade (you guessed it - it was a poem about the color red - life altering, I know) that won me 5 gold stars and a spot in my elementary school's poetry book. That's when my addiction to the written word officially began. I was the only kid in fifth grade that actually enjoyed diagramming sentences. Go ahead and laugh – it’s okay.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This book is a fabulous addition to any young adult book shelf. This IS book 2 in a series, I did not read book one until after this book, but it did not detract, so it is possible to read it without having read book 1. That being said it would make far more sense if you read them in order! I actually re-read this book after I read book 1 just so I could keep the story flowing. And I enjoyed it just as much the second time I read it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">There are a few surprises that will grab you. And it heads in a completely different direction than you would think it was going. Although it can always spin back around I suppose. But so far this series is keeping my interest. I love the entire aspect of past lives and being reborn to find each other again and again. I love the idea of loving someone so much that you keep coming back to earth and winding up together again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Casse Narome has created a world which will suck you in and not let you go. There is a bit of violence in the book so if you are against violence then I just wanted to let you know that there is a touch of it here. Not an overwhelming amount and it isn't something that will make you squirm. All in all this is a well written story and I for one will continue on the story as I have access to the books.</span><br />

As an adult that is also how she spends her time only now she writes her daydreams down for everyone to read. Casse is never serious, has been accused of wishing her life was a sitcom, laugh track and all, has a bad habit of talking out loud to herself and she is fine with being a little insane. She spends way too much time online, too much money buying books and laughing at her own jokes. You will find her on Twitter being very random and spewing her opinions. When you see her online, tell her to get back to her writing! Or just engage her in a hilarious random conversation. She blogs book reviews and the adventures of being a writer at</span></div>

I use a special tool while writing my reviews. But not only that I use it in any of my writings. It works on Facebook as well so you can do away with those tiresome grammar nazi's who correct you when they disagree with what you've written. The fabulous program: </span><br />
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">I use <b>Grammarly's </b></span><a href="http://www.grammarly.com/plagiarism-checker" style="background-color: white; color: #1155cc; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;" target="_blank"><b>online plagiarism checker</b></a><span style="font-family: inherit;">, because I need to be sure I don't spoil the book for you by being a copy cat in my review, and I truly hate spoilers!</span></i><br />

Today I have a little something special. I have a double review for you. I was given the first two books in the Frost Series, written by Liz DeJesus. And I can honestly say that if you have children who love fairytales this is the book for them or for YOU! This book is not strictly for children.<br />
<br />
I've taken the time to review each book individually, and I have provided you with the blurb and the cover photo to make it easy. I've also given you the Kindle link to the book. This way you can just hop on out and grab a copy for yourself or your loved ones. <br />
<br />
I will give you a quick overview. This series is fabulous. It is an enjoying romp through fairytales, and so many interesting twists and turns. You will love the story and will definitely want to continue on the series.<br />
<br />
If that interests you then by all means read on... You carriage awaits...<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Fairytales aren’t real…yeah…that’s exactly what Bianca
thought. She was wrong.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For generations, the Frost family has run the Museum of
Magical and Rare Artifacts, handing down guardianship from mother to daughter,
always keeping their secrets to “family only.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Gathered within museum’s walls is a collection dedicated to
the Grimm fairy tales and to the rare items the family has acquired:
Cinderella’s glass slipper, Snow White’s poisoned apple, the evil queen’s magic
mirror, Sleeping Beauty’s enchanted spinning wheel…<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Seventeen-year-old Bianca Frost wants none of it, dreaming
instead of a career in art or photography or…well, anything except working in
the family’s museum. She knows the items in the glass display cases are fakes
because, of course, magic doesn’t really exist.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">She’s about to find out how wrong she is.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

I have always loved Fairytales. It's one of the reasons why I loved the TV show "Once Upon a Time". What Liz DeJesus has created in these books is a brand new take on the old stories. These books will suck you in and delight even the most reluctant readers. But it isn't just for the kids. Oh no, don't let the label YA fool you, this book is by no means for kids only!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We have Bianca Frost, who is 17 years old. Her best friend is Ming, and their lives are about to be changed forever. Bianca works in her mother's Museum. A fabulous place which has relics of all the fairy tales. But what Bianca didn't know is that the fairy tales are all REAL! <br />
<br />
I can't go into any details because there is just so much to say about this book and I am seriously afraid that I will give it all away. What I will say is the Characters are strongly written, believable and enjoyable. The plot moves along at a fairly fast pace and keeps you absorbed in the story. The world creation is detailed but not so much that it is an information dump. It literally sucks you in and you can see the home the Three Little Pigs built of bricks. You can see the different story characters come to life. This is an amazing book, and I am sure that you and your children will love it. This book is easily appropriate for children, I passed it along to my 10 year old son. It can even be read aloud, although if you do that I fear your kids won't go to sleep very early!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Now first I must say that this is book 2 in the Frost Series, and I HIGHLY recommend that you read book 1 first. I also must say that one of my favorite stories when my children were young enough for me to read to them was the tale of Cinderella. In fact my youngest Susie, went through a period where she wanted to be called Cindy and dressed in her Cinderella outfit so often she wore it out. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That being said this was nothing at all like what I expected from a Cinderella shoe search! There is a LOT of action in this book, so much so that it will keep you flipping the pages long after you are supposed to be in bed. *fair warning parents this book will suck your child in and you won't get them to bed on time*</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Again the Character Creation is fabulous, Bianca is a lovable young lady, Terrance is an interesting male lead and again Ming is just too cute for words. Best friends will follow you to the ends of the world, this one follows Bianca to a new world! How much more besties can they be?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I will NOT go into any details on the story, to do so may slip out a few things that will spoil it, so I will just say I HIGHLY recommend this 5 star read to anyone young or old alike. I think that this story was even more enjoyable than the first book which says something about the Authors talent for writing. The adventures will keep you on the edge of your seat, and will keep you wondering what is going to happen next. I will just say one little teeny tiny thing, I loved the dwarfs and I do so hope we see more of them in future books.</div>

I love all things nostalgic, rustic, and quirky. I've been told I see the world through rose-colored glasses, but I prefer to think of them as kaleidoscope glasses - swirling and morphing reality into something I can digest (who hasn't pretended those pasty lima beans were really kiwi strawberry jelly beans?).</span></span></div>

I love all books, but really enjoy writing young adult, paranormal romances. I've loved to write for as long as I can remember. My first published work was my poem RED in second grade (you guessed it - it was a poem about the color red - life altering, I know) that won me 5 gold stars and a spot in my elementary school's poetry book. That's when my addiction to the written word officially began. I was the only kid in fifth grade that actually enjoyed diagramming sentences. Go ahead and laugh – it’s okay.</span></span></div>

What with The Walking Dead and World War Z. But this book is NOT like any other zombie book or movie!<br />
<br />
Zombies as we all know are supposed to be mindless eating machines. But in this book what you get is something totally new and unique. <br />
<br />
I've always believed that Zombies would one day happen due to a virus or plague, but I always pictured them more like this Author did, not mindless eating machines at all. And I think that twist makes this book well worth the read.<br />
<br />
If you love good clean books then this one is for you! If you love Zombie books, this one is for you! If you love books with a touch of romance, and a touch of action, then this one is for you!<br />
<br />
Jo Michaels has amazing ability when it comes to character creation and this book once again shows just how talented she truly is! So what are you waiting for? Go grab a copy today! Just click on the image below and it will take you to Amazon!<br />

Jo Michaels is a writer who's really had a taste of life. She's lived in Louisiana, Tennessee, and Georgia; but visited states from coast to coast. Michaels, a high-school dropout, put herself through college while her husband was deployed to Iraq and still managed to come out on the other side with all five of her children still breathing. On top of that wondrous feat, she managed to graduate Summa Cum Laude. After her fourteen year marriage ended cataclysmically, she took to the keys to fulfill her dream of becoming a writer. Using the degree she obtained in school, Jo set out with tools in her belt not many writers possess: a strong design eye, the skills necessary to format her books, and the ability to use her artistic talents to create stunning covers.</div>

Now, Michaels writes full-time in her garage while imbibing copious amounts of coffee to keep her motor running from son up to son down (and daughter, too). Her inspiration for her books comes from relationships, life, friends, passion, and her own incredible imagination. A fight for achieving her dream (along with her super duper boyfriend) is what drags her out of bed every morning to do what she does best: spin tales laced with high-octane emotion for readers worldwide.</div>

In a world where teens never cease to speak their minds, the sixteen year old Portia, rendered mysteriously mute at birth, has opted out of the mainstream conversation. Instead, this silent sophomore at Ridgewood Preparatory Academy finds solace in her keen love of music and bizarre obsession with birds. And it doesn’t hurt that her best friend, Felix Fein, deaf at the age of eight, couldn’t care less whether or not she is able to execute the spoken word.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Okay now as a HUGE fan of anything to do with God's and Goddess's I must first state I LOVED how Elisa Freilich combined the Gods of old with modern technology! You ROCK Elisa!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was completely absorbed in reading this book. I made the ultimate mistake of deciding to start reading it at 8 at night and needless to say I did NOT get to bed at my normal time. Thank the Gods I was on Holidays and could sleep in when I finally dragged my carcass to bed at 1 in the morning.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have to have a little tell here about one character in the book, poor Dionysus always gets such a bad rap for being a drunk, and once again he is *sighs* too drunk to remember what he is supposed to do. But I have to laugh at his antics once again. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The character creation in this book is EXTREMELY sharp! It kept me on the edge of my seat with the dialogue and the absolute realism in such a fantasy type book. Portia, Felix, Max, Charlotte are all such well thought out and well written characters. You actually forget your reading and can picture these teens as being the kids next door. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I loved the topic of the Siren's, and I loved how the author used birds as a comparison, as a bird owner and lover I was sucked in by those aspects of the book. This book truly will keep you up late into the night because you simply won't want to put it down. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Once again I must state that this author used such realism while writing this book. References to websites, twitter, google all modern day aspects that made this book oh so enjoyable.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I personally didn't want it to end, and in the end I hope that this Author continues to write more tales with these Characters. I suspect she will since... well nevermind that aspect, because I just simply won't go further along that train of thought. But I seriously HAVE TO KNOW!!! *looks pointedly at the author*</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This book is perfect for the reluctant YA reader. It has just enough action in it to keep them flipping pages, and I have passed my free copy on to my 10 year old son, so I think it is appropriate to grade 7 and up. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is a 5 star read!!! And not just for the younger crowd but the old fogies like me as well! </div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Elisa Freilich has enjoyed a love affair with language from her earliest days. Raised in rural Monsey, New York, Elisa spent her days reading whatever crossed her path and developing a keen appreciation for the ever-present music in her home – from classical to rock. French lessons and creative writing workshops complemented her adolescence, which was also greatly enhanced by a summer spent abroad at Cambridge University. From the time she could read and write, Elisa could often be found composing poems, song lyrics and satirical newspapers.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After her college years at Boston University, Elisa continued her creative pursuits, working as a junior VP of Marketing at a corporate graphic design agency and, later, as an interior decorator. Eventually, Elisa left the workforce to raise her family, in her now hometown of Englewood, NJ.</span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></b>

The result is her debut novel, SILENT ECHO: A Siren’s Tale, which will be published by Diversion Books in Summer 2013. With her own lyrical style, Elisa has created a world that young adults around the globe will find intensely gripping and refreshingly original.</span></div>

She is fierce with a set of knitting needles, a hot glue gun and any ingredients that can somehow be fashioned into a sinful and highly caloric babka.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.15; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">Kristen was born in Alabama in 1991 and still resides there today. She has been writing since the 6th grade. However, she did not begin to write fiction until she was 15. In 2009, Kristen had an idea that would spark the concept for Gemini of Emréiana that she would later write in 2011. During that time, she met her husband. They married in August of 2012. When Kristen is not writing, she spends time watching Korean Drama's or creating SIM's 3 stories. Kristen continues to write the next novels to the Gemini Trilogy. She also plans to release a new series later on in the year.</span></div>

I must first admit that I was a wee bit of a pest about this book, and I can now apologize in advance that I will be a wee bit of a pest until I get book 5 in my grubby little hands. I'm sure that once you read this series you will understand why I was a pest! But you are luckier than I am since books 1 through 4 are already out and available on all the major book sellers.<br />
<br />
First a little bit about the book...<br />

<i><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">When the evil you fear is born from within, who will save us…from ourselves?</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Sometimes our souls hear what our minds and hearts refuse to accept. It will whisper its continuous cadence until we're strong enough to glimpse the truth. But when the soul's whispers morph into screams, we're forced to gaze into the mirrors of time and see ourselves for who we really are. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Grappling with her newfound leadership position, Stasia begins to experience a recurring nightmare of murder, as well as curious reveries about a violet-eyed girl who can control the moon. When tragedy grips the Tydes and several important relics are stolen from the Sons of Daimon, Stasia’s Council leaves for the forgotten island of Atlantis. Unfortunately Atlantis harbors its own secrets, and they are all calling to Stasia. As her nightmares become worse and she begins to lose control of her mind, those around her must find a way to reach her…and fast.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Olivia Campbell is used to getting what she wants, when she wants it. But destiny never asked Olivia what she wanted. Being Chosen to be a Paladin at birth had not been something she wanted, and she definitely hadn’t wanted her charge to be Anastasia. Unfortunately their irritatingly persistent Atlantean guide, Sebastian, seems to know all about her and the secrets she’s been hiding. As she fights to protect Stasia from an unknown force, Olivia’s own courage and loyalty will be tested in ways she never imagined. Will she be able to tell Stasia the truth before it’s too late for them both?</span></i><br />

<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">Now this book picked up relatively where we left off in the ending of book 3. I am so very glad it did too. I so missed Finn and Stasia! I loved the new twist in this book with Atlantis. And the action in this book once again will keep you guessing at what will happen. I have to admit that while I love Finn and Stasia there really is not a single character in this book that I don't feel a bond with. I love how easy it is to make these characters your close personal friends. Kristen Day did an AMAZING job on character creation and I must applaud her for the ability to suck me in with such ease.</span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">I loved the new characters in this book, and I LOVE ATLANTIS!!! I want to live there! I'd even wear white clothes for the rest of my life if I could! Now I have to say that once again this book is filled with tragedy, and adventure and reveries and all sorts of magic that will have your mind in a boggle! </span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Now I must give my two cents on the newest addition to this series, Sebastian. First I love the name, I wanted that name for my son but since I wasn't lucky enough to have boys I have to just get my fill of Sebastian in other methods. And this Sebastian just does not disappoint. First of all he is HOT! Then add to that is he is amazing, but he is hiding something, you just don't know what it is. And when you find out, boy oh boy will your head spin as you shout out I KNEW IT!!!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Once again the fight scenes are of epic proportion. And it is one heck of a roller coaster ride. And the ending will have you screaming for the next book. *hint hint* I'm sadly not known for my patience but at least I'm a polite stalker.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>One other side note, there is a sex scene, not a huge one so I wouldn't worry too much about the younger teens reading this book. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>So are you still here? What the heck are you waiting for? Go grab yourself this series, I HIGHLY Recommend it!!! Go on get outta here already!!! Just follow the links and buy yourselves this fabulous and entertaining and breathtaking and all encompassing series!!!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Kristen Day kudos for yet another successful story that kept me sucked in until the very end and left me craving more!</b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px; text-align: start;">What can I say but OMG! This book starts out with a small piece of history with the baby being left in front of the Police Station by her mother and father. This in itself creates a tug at the heart as both the mother and father cry about leaving their baby behind and it instantly creates a bond with the poor family who are forced to separate. We don't know it at the time but they did this to save their daughter's life.</b></div>
<span style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-weight: bold; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<b style="font-family: inherit; text-align: start;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;">Flash forward to when the baby is 17 years old. Having lived her entire life in the foster care system and being both mentally and physically abused, she suffers from nightmares. She has been adopted by a family and is now seeing a therapist for her blackouts and nightmares. Which the family think is because of her history. When she goes to a therapist who sends her to a different therapist who then sends her to a new school, at first we think oh wow what's wrong with this picture. What doctor does that after just a few questions. Then we start to see the strange things that are happening. </span></b></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">First of all Hannah can hear music in the water of her bathtub, music with no origin. She see's things when she is blacked out, things that are unanswerable at this time but we do find out later what those things are.</span></b></div>

<span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Hannah goes to this new school where she recreates herself. Due to her visions during her blackout, she asks that they call her Anastasia or Stasia for short. This flags her because there is a legend regarding an Anastasia and everyone knows it at the school. Then we find that this school isn't just any old school, we find that EVERY student at this school has special abilities because they are children of the water. They are all children of the Gods/Goddesses. Part Human, part god which gives them these special abilities. </span></b></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
<b style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I won't tell you who the mother and father of Anastasia is to not spoil the book but suffice it to say it is what creates quite a bit of the drama in the book.</span></b></div>

<b style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This book has some heart-stopping action scenes and tear raising scenes.

<b style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I absolutely love books which bring the gods and goddess's of old into them.

But before she can make her legendary journey, an unexpected new student transfers to Lorelei; initiating a sequence of events that will unravel Stasia’s new life, and test the boundaries of her relationship with the mysterious, dark, and sexy Finn Morrison. The line between the Underworld and the Living begins to blur as gruesome ghosts, morbid reveries, and pure evil haunt her waking hours as well as her sanity. Once the details of Finn’s own startling destiny are revealed, the dangerous secrets he’s been hiding will threaten the very love Stasia believed to be indestructible. As time begins to run out, she will be forced to choose between the one she loves and the destiny she cannot escape.</i></span></span><br />

Now that I have that out of the way let me explain. Kristen Day has created the cliff hanger to end all cliff hangers! And that has me furious that I now have to wait until February to continue on this glorious story.</b><br /><b><br />This book picks up were we left off in her first book Forsaken. The beautiful and lovely Pasha and the equally adorable Finn. Their escapades in this book are as exciting as they were in the first book.</b><br /><b><br />Day's character creation is fabulous. Each character in her story has a unique personality, and I love each and every one. Well except for the bad guys those I HATE! As I am supposed to. In this story we are introduced to a new girl Nadia. And boy is she a *$^#&! Yes I know I didn't say what she is but I am sure you will read the book and determine the same thing I did that she is one twisted person!</b><br /><b><br />The story line moves along, and it keeps your attention from the first page to the last.</b><br /><b><br />But I say this is a MUST READ!!! Of course read book one first so you get the entire feel for the story. But Kristen Day has definitely created a tale worth reading and I love the entire Goddess story line. She has created a magical and wonderfully exciting tale.</b><br /><b><br />Details/Disclaimer: Review copy was provided to me in exchange for a fair and honest review.

In the midst of her search to reclaim him, Stasia is summoned to the island nation of Cyprus to take part in an age-old ritual; unveiling the missing pieces of her ancestry and re-igniting an ancient war. As she struggles to both save Finn’s soul and free Carmen’s mind, Stasia’s bravery and determination will be pushed to its breaking point. A dark storm is forming on the horizon, and the forces who are vying to destroy her may be much closer than she thinks. Destiny weaves a sticky web of evil, betrayal, and revenge that can only be undone by the purity of love and the soul’s unyielding will to survive. In the last installment of the Daughters of the Sea trilogy, the past will collide with the present as Stasia’s future hangs in the balance. The prophecy that paved the way for her new life may indeed be the very thing that strips her of the ones she loves the most.</i></b></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I am a southern belle at heart with a crazy streak that desperately tries to escape at every opportunity. I love all things nostalgic, rustic, and quirky. I've been told I see the world through rose-colored glasses, but I prefer to think of them as kaleidoscope glasses - swirling and morphing reality into something I can digest (who hasn't pretended those pasty lima beans were really kiwi strawberry jelly beans?).</span></span><br />

<span id="internal-source-marker_0.8414347076322883"><span style="font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I am the author of the DAUGHTERS OF THE SEA trilogy, which includes FORSAKEN, AWAKEN, and CHOSEN (Winter 2012). I love all books, but really enjoy writing young adult, paranormal romances. I've loved to write for as long as I can remember. My first published work was my poem RED in second grade (you guessed it - it was a poem about the color red - life altering, I know) that won me 5 gold stars and a spot in my elementary school's poetry book. That's when my addiction to the written word officially began. I was the only kid in fifth grade that actually enjoyed diagramming sentences. Go ahead and laugh – it’s okay.</span></span><br />

<strong>Jack Templar and the Lord of the Vampires</strong> Jack is back. After his adventures at the Monster Hunter Academy (which included fighting a goblin army, befriending an ancient werewolf, and battling two fire breathing dragons), Jack Templar was hoping for a rest. No such luck. In Book #3 of the Jack Templar Monster Hunter series, Jack embarks on a quest to track down and acquire the first of the five mythical Jerusalem Stones, an ancient power found by his ancestors the Templar Knights. Only the reunited Stones can stop Ren Lucre, the Dark Lord who holds Jack’s father hostage and prepares for an all-out war against an unsuspecting human world. But each Stone is held by a different Creach Lord and recovering them will not be easy. Jack and his friends begin their quest by seeking out one of the most powerful and dangerous keepers of the Stones, the Lord of the Vampires. The fate of the world rests on Jack’s shoulders and he will be tested like never before. But true monster hunters always do their duty…come what may. Jack Templar and the Lord of the Vampires. <br />

Okay, now I have to just add my review in here, I have been an AVID follower since the very first book. And I must say how each book keeps MY interest and keeps me involved. And this one was no exception, in fact this one had me darn near in tears. No I won't go into more detail than that. What I will say is that the author has created a wonderful and dramatic world which is well suited to all ages. This book does have violence in it, and would be more suited for those children who can deal with that sort of thing. But it is done in a manner which is well suited to even the youngest of readers. My son is 10 and he absolutely LOVES this series!</div>

Jack Templar is amazing, and his crew of other young children are equally amazing. Some of the things they do just will literally have you gasping and screaming out be careful!</div>

<b>Jack Templar and the Monster Hunter Academy (Book 2)</b>
After barely surviving the onslaught of monsters that tried to kill him the day before his fourteenth birthday, Jack Templar leaves his hometown on a quest to rescue his father and discover the truth about his past. Joined by his friends Will and T-Rex, and led by Eva, the mysterious one-handed monster hunter, Jack sets out for the Monster Hunter Academy where he hopes to find answers to his questions. Little does he suspect that the Academy is filled with dangers of its own, many of them more terrifying than anything he’s faced so far.

<b>Jack Templar: Monster Hunter (Book 1) </b>
Orphan Jack Templar has no memory of his parents and only the smallest details from his Aunt Sophie about how they died. The day before Jack's fourteenth birthday, things start to change for him. At first it's great: A sudden new strength helps him defend his nose-picking friend "T-Rex" from the school bully, and even his crush, Cindy Adams, takes notice. But then a mysterious girl named Eva arrives and tells him two facts that will change his life forever. First, that he's the descendent of a long line of monster hunters and he's destined to be in the family business. Second, that there's a truce between man and monster that children are off-limits...until their fourteenth birthday! Jack has only one day before hundreds of monsters will descend on his little town of Sunnyvale and try to kill him.
As if that weren't enough, things get even more complicated when Jack discovers that the Lord of the Creach (as the monsters are collectively known) holds a personal grudge against him and will do anything to see that Jack has a slow and painful death. To stay alive and save his friends, Jack will have to battle werewolves, vampires, harpies, trolls, zombies and more. But perhaps the most dangerous thing he must face is the truth about his past. Why do the other hunters call him the last Templar? Why do they whisper that he may be the "One?" Why do the monsters want him dead so badly? Even as these questions plague him, he quickly discovers survival is his new full-time job and that in the world of monster hunters, nothing is really what it seems.

Jeff Gunhus grew up in Cyprus, Greece, and Saudi Arabia where there was a distinct lack of television. He quickly found books were the gateway to incredible adventures, fascinating characters and unbelievable discoveries. Now, with five children of his own (all who watch too much television, in his opinion), he has enjoyed revisiting his old books and reliving those adventures all over again.

Condyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00419198081214109291noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357161900959005835.post-22033029477224889972013-10-11T09:10:00.000+10:002013-10-11T09:10:11.705+10:00Education in the wilds...So for those who follow this blog you know that I do quite a few reviews of books. However today I am going to do something a bit more oriented towards my home schooling. As you know I have a 10 year old son with special needs. He also has a total aversion to learning in any format. And trust me I've tried just about every curriculum out there, special needs curriculums, Commor Core Curriculum, etc etc etc. He has in fact said in no uncertain terms that he does not want to learn anything. Basically at 8 years old he dropped out of school for all intents and purposes.<br />
<br />
Now I've only been home schooling him for a year now. But in that time that mindset has not changed at all. He still does every task I set him to as slow and drawn out as possible with as little effort from him as possible sometimes to the extent of just writing in anything. And lets not even go into art here, because that is where most children do well within his spectrum yet he is still drawing much as a prep child does. Now I say all this because I need you to understand just where my son is in his educational foray. Basically,he is a 10 year old in Kindergarten/Prep. Can he work harder? Yes, when I force him, and yes I do mean force him, he can now read at a grade 7 level which for him is a huge improvement, and he even has a blog which if I sit on him he actually posts to. The doctors have stated it in such a manner... "He is the laziest child they have ever seen." <br />
<br />
Now my fight with them has always been how can you diagnose him with any issues when he was too lazy or stubborn or whatever words you wish to use to describe him as to take the IQ test? Now as his new mother, I saw right away there were issues with him, not so much in his ability to do things because he is quite smart, but I knew that he just didn't have that drive that my girls had to succeed or for that matter to even research into a topic that interests him. <br />
<br />
But Connor CAN learn! After a full two weeks spent using Amanda Bennett's Cavernous Caves lapbook kit, mind you it was supposed to be a one week lapbook but Connor always takes a minimum of double the allotted time to complete any task, we went on a trip to the local caves here in Australia.<br />
<br />
What happened there was an example how a piece of paper cannot always tell you just what your child has learned. Connor could tell the person that there were stalactites and stalagmites, though he couldn't remember which was which. But for the first time Connor went off exploring on his own. He willingly followed the tour guide through an area of the cave that mom and dad decided to forgo because it entailed crawling on our tummies. My son, who is afraid of basically everything went willingly to try something new. He explored that section of the cave and his father and I stood near where it would exit only a few yards from where it started but hey it was something daring to us. Here is a photo of him climbing up out of the tunnels.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<br />
Now that is not the only thing he did. He flipped off his headlamp and proceeded to explore a cavern in complete darkness by feel only. This was a fun, and exciting walk thru a zig zag cave that was quite long but really was probably only about 30 meters but it sure felt like it was much longer. Our sense of hearing was amazing in that darkness, it took only seconds for our other senses to take over where our eyes once were. It was an amazing experience and one I must say I never thought he would be willing to try. But once again he surprised me.<br />
<br />
This just showed me that even though I keep thinking he isn't learning anything because his work is so poor, that he does learn some things. Yes he may never be able to write in a better sentence than a first grader. Yes he is not going to meet the base Common Core for the school system. Yes he will never prove to be an Einstein. Yes he is 100% different than my girls. But he does maintain some knowledge and I can only hope and pray that one day he will be able to hold a job and have a family and maintain a lifestyle at least as good as his father's and mine. For now, I will keep working with him, keep spending time with him, and keep taking him to whatever outside things we can afford to do. And who knows maybe some day something will spark his desire to learn.Condyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00419198081214109291noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357161900959005835.post-62254186246620790382013-09-24T19:18:00.001+10:002013-09-24T19:18:47.022+10:00The Samantha Project Series Review.<span style="font-family: inherit;">Today I have a little something special.

<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I started reading The Samantha Project and turned the pages so quickly that in just a matter of a few hours I had finished the book. I immediately grabbed book 2 to find out what would happen next. Now I'll give you a bit about the books. Both what I liked and didn't like.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The very first thing I have to say is I loved the way the author wrote the dialogue! I enjoyed the characters even though at first I felt Samantha was a little too perfect a student/child. But then when things started happening I understood why she was the way she was. I loved Colin her boyfriend. I also liked how the time period was one we could relate to, it was in the now. Not years from now on some odd planet. And with all the genetic manipulation going on in today's world I could actually see this being true.<img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=receread0b-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00A8MHPLM" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1" /> This book has a lot of twists and turns and will keep you wondering what's going to happen next. There are also many horrible things that happen in this book and I must say that it is not a book for younger kids. For instance I wouldn't want my 10 year old to read it but I would let my 16 year old read it without a problem.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">All in all book was for me was a successfully written story that captivated my attention and had me flipping pages and on the edge of my seat enough for me to immediately grab book 2.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Book 2 picks up exactly where book one left off. Samantha and Eric are trying to find a way to stop the ticking time bomb which is inside them. I won't give too much away because there are things you will already know by this point that you discover in book 1. Suffice it to say this was again a well written and suspenseful story. This book deals with some more mature issues in regards to teens. There were references to sex in this book that were missing from the first book. But it was done in a manner that was definitely tasteful and also quite realistically necessary to the plot. I think the entire genetic manipulation aspect of things remind me of a few of the TV shows I enjoyed and maybe that is why my attention is grabbed with this book. I have to say that the characters show quite a bit of growth in this book. Once again the author has successfully created a world that is both dangerous and yet realistic to our modern day world. I have to say I finished this book in about 4 hours and grabbed book 3. Yes I spent an entire day and half the night reading this series.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now last but not least is the final book. This book once again picks up exactly where we left off in book 2. The story has become much more complex. Luckily the author actually went into details about genetic manipulation and the entire scientific aspect was made simple for even the most unscientific. So references made in this book are quite easy to understand.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This series was one giant jigsaw puzzle. I figured out a few things long before the end of the book. This book WILL keep you on the edge of your seat. The growth of the characters is wonderfully done. Erik, Brittany, Colin all change and mature as they handle the different situations thrown at them. Even the adults show some growth which I liked. Now what I didn't like is that in parts of this series it seems that Samantha just doesn't show the same growth that the other characters show. For someone who is supposedly so genetically enhanced she seems very weak willed and wishy-washy at times. At other times she seems to be highly sexually oriented and mature. It's a very strange mix. She does finally show growth and she does finally seem to come into her own. Which is a good thing. Now in my personal opinion if this is the final book it feels unfinished. I'm not exactly sure why, it just seemed after everything we went through that the ending felt anti-climactic for me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIsfcy0mt0sKafMzC5Wgc_CJCR5CyLmInzxuv86e-LjFBfsKb1MWp-7uwoFhHTE_GDnSTDbt0weUzhIPp9_Z-y-uIDPufAY3TKBkz7DnAi3QM7isxWCWpG8y26VcWT_TEG1yQVod9iLGYe/s1600/images+%25286%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="61" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIsfcy0mt0sKafMzC5Wgc_CJCR5CyLmInzxuv86e-LjFBfsKb1MWp-7uwoFhHTE_GDnSTDbt0weUzhIPp9_Z-y-uIDPufAY3TKBkz7DnAi3QM7isxWCWpG8y26VcWT_TEG1yQVod9iLGYe/s320/images+%25286%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now I did enjoy this series, and if I had to give a rating on the entire series I would give it a 4. Book 1 and 2 I enjoyed more than book 3. There is a LOT of scientific details in all three books. Information regarding Genetics, DNA, and other science is thrown around quite a lot. If you don't like books where you actually can learn something then this series is not for you. I however didn't find it too distracting to have small information dumps about something that I actually knew something about and enjoyed the thought that if we could just change a few things in a person's DNA we could create super humans. Although at the same time I am totally against that due in part to playing God, and in part to the simple fact that just because we can do something doesn't mean we should do it.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I give this series a very series 4 stars total and suggest to anyone who enjoys science fiction or even romance stories that this series is a good solid read. Again this is not a book for younger than 16 due to some of the graphic dialogues in the books.</div>

No from the title you would have no clue about what this story is about. By a quick look I actually thought it might have something to do with poker. I know I'm lame, what can I say. Then I read the blurb and went, wow, this is totally not what I expected. And from there the book grabbed me and sucked me in. Here is the "Official" blurb of the book and you will see just why it grabbed my attention.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Pretty intense stuff there huh? Just makes your brain go okay now what in the heck is going on, where is the author going with this story, and oh god I just have to read it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So read it is exactly what I did! And let me tell you, this book is NOT for the faint of heart. I do not think it is appropriate for younger children but since it is in the New Adult Category the author recognizes this and labelled it accordingly. This book addresses some fundamental issues for children in abusive situations. And as the author states it does contain very sensitive issues and ones which sadly for our girls many of them may face at one time or another in their life. 1 in 3 women will be sexually molested in their lifetime. That is a sad statement of the men of today in my humble opinion. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This story is deeply moving coming of age-story. The focus of the book is abuse, love and friendship. And the author did a wonderful job of combining the three. Your heart will break for Kristen and Chris, and even for Mila. The author touches upon such terrible subjects in a well crafted story.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The author has created characters that are rich and very much alive. Kristen is a young girl who has suffered at the hands of the people she trusted the most. She is approaching her 18th year on earth, and has lived with the circumstances for many years. She has like most abused children been brainwashed into believing it is all her fault and that she is somehow bad.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I LOVED the growth the author wrote into this young woman. I loved how she changed right before my eyes. I especially liked the forming of her first real friendship with her best friend Mila. And how much that one single friend changed how she started to see herself. And I love how I am so not going to tell you anymore so you just have to go out and grab a copy for yourself!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Yes I know I'm evil. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now lets just talk about the young man in the book, Chris. I loved him from the second I read about him. I won't tell you a thing about him, except to say that I wish more young men were like him.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And Mila is a doll. She happens to be rich, have the perfect life, and yet for reasons unknown to anyone she has taken to Kristen. And she really is such a wonderful young girl. She makes me think of my own daughters, and how they never judged a person by how much money they had, or how they looked and I thought how wonderful Mila's mother must be, and sure enough when you read about her, you will just have to agree that she is a wonderful role model for all us mom's to mimic.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I totally hate spoilers, and if I spill anymore, I just know I'm bound to slip up and say things. So here is where my review will just have to end. There are characters in this book you will LOVE, and there are characters in this book you will HATE! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
***I just have to say this one thing... </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
ANY MAN who cannot take NO for an answer isn't a man. Any man who treats a woman with disrespect deserves the worst thing that I can think of to happen. Rape is not about sex, it is all about controlling another person, and any man who rapes a woman should have ALL control taken from him permanently! Can you tell this is something I feel strongly about? Well I do because I am one of the one in three. I survived! And as a survivor, I can say that a woman is so much more than men think they are. We are far stronger than most people believe, and we have strong minds which help us to overcome the most horrendous of happenings. Men tend to blame women for wearing certain clothing or acting a certain way, but it is their own weakness and insecurities which cause them to act the way they do. Blame us for all the ills, but the truth is, only a woman can bring a new life into this fabulous world of ours!</div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">And here is where my review seriously ends. You should go and get this book. You won't regret it! I recommend this book to ages 16 and up. I say 16 because girls are having to face these sorts of issues at a young age. Here is a link to go buy the book. Trust me, you won't go wrong reading this book and Kristens growth during the book is precisely the hope we need for these kids! I have to praise the Author Allie Mathews for a well written and inspiring story for all ages.</span><br />

<span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Allie lives in North Carolina and works at a university bookstore. She reads and writes in her spare time, including lunch breaks. When she's not reading or writing she's usually watching something on television, whether a good show or movie; or she's hanging out with friends...also perhaps drinking. A small amount. Usually rum. She likes rum. Oh, chocolate! She also enjoys eating things chocolate-y. She's always open to book recommendations. She listens to music while she cooks, usually throwing in a few dance moves. Allie thinks random things at random times and writes them down, even when they don't seem to be in any sort of order. She is a work in progress.</span></span>Condyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00419198081214109291noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357161900959005835.post-14213202800147527652013-09-19T11:49:00.000+10:002013-09-19T11:54:53.981+10:00Not Just Tacos!
