Review: Darkness Falls

Darkness Falls by K.C. Luck
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this novel addressing an apocalyptic storyline. When the lights go out the women take initiative. Alice plays a great stabilizing force of nature and the voice of reason. I look forward to reading the next book in the series. The author did a great job of setting up the ending to jump into the next book.

Review: Beowulf for Cretins: A Love Story

Beowulf for Cretins: A Love Story by Ann McMan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excellent book by Ann McMan. I loved the interplay between the characters. These two intellectuals at times lost in translation. The academic verbiage was a delight. The secondary characters made their mark - CK and Dean...who knew. Highly recommend.

Great book by a new author to me. I will be reading more from this author. Although this was a novella, I look forward to full-length features! Great characters, especially the mothers. I loved Brees assertiveness.

Lethal Care by Claire McNab

Good to the last word. I have loved reading all of Claire McNab's books and this latest was no exception. Carol is stellar and I thoroughly enjoy Aunt Sarah, Sybil, and Madeline. What would you do?

Review: In the Company of Women

In the Company of Women by Kate Christie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Great read about WACs and women's new roles. Serving in silence for women in the WAC was difficult and risky. You risked who you were, your career, and love. I appreciated the storyline between these two women from different worlds who have patriotism in common. A little slow in areas, but a fascinating read about the different airships.

Review: Reservations of the Heart

Reservations of the Heart by T.B. Markinson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great book that won't disappoint. The characters, plot, and writing are awesome. The main characters were written realistically. Nothing was easy for these women who found communication a necessity. Stella's sister is one I wish I had in my corner and I'm sure we know people like Becky. The coworkers in the hospital seemed almost comically well done.

Conflict of Interest by Jae
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jae wrote an exceptional novel of two stubborn souls that can't help but make way to your heart. It's a non-stop read from start to finish. This author did not take the easy route but instead wrote a book that rocked my world.

A Celtic Knot by Ana Corman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Great story about two women who each have lost love in the past and are now on track to fin it again if they can just have faith. I enjoyed the read, but it did get a little mushy towards the end. I would have liked to know more about Ruth and Dana, too.

Review: Uprising

Uprising by Fletcher DeLancey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am in mourning. There are no more in this series for me to enjoy. This author did a powerful job of creating a world/universe of people to fall in love with and appreciate. I have enjoyed reading this series of powerful women, empathic people, and a caring world for the past couple of months. I impressed with the character development and plot expansion. Bravo.

Review: The Caphenon

The Caphenon by Fletcher DeLancey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read the first three of this series and am taking a break before the next three. I have become so immersed in the stories I forgot on which planet I was living! The characters are well developed and the storylines are quite engaging. I am not usually into sci-fi, but this has been page-turning.
