Frost Line by Linda Howard and Linda Jones

Title: Frost Line Authors: Linda Howard and Linda Jones Series: n/a Fascinating, heartwarming story but unfocused; also, Elsa much? When seven-year-old Elijah Tilley accidentally asks the tarot entity Strength for help, Lenna Frost is pulled from her world onto Earth. She’s completely out of her depth, but she vows to keep Elijah safe, receiving aid from Caine, a Hunter sent to fetch Lenna back to her world. I had to ruminate on this book for a little while after I …

Lost Among the Living by Simone St. James

Title: Lost Among the Living Author: Simone St. James Series: n/a Not as spooky or creative as previous work, but I enjoyed it 🙂 I would give this a solid four stars, except Alex wins that entire fifth star himself.

This book wasn’t as spooky as some of her other books–not nearly as spooky as An Inquiry Into Love and …

An Inquiry into Love and Death by Simone St. James

Title: An Inquiry into Love and Death Author: Simone St. James Series: n/a What a wonderful—and chilling—surprise! So, I loaned this audiobook from the library for the promise of romance.

I needed a break from my own writing last night and …

If you’re a Robards fan, you’ll love it. If you’re new to Robards, I recommend starting this …

Evermore by Alyson Noel

Title: Evermore Author: Alyson Noel Series: Immortals #1 Twilight knock-off, pathetic characters, ridiculous paranormal elements Well. I’ll start off by saying that I listened to the audiobooks of the first and second books of this series, and I’m not sure if I’ll listen to the others. They’re narrated by Katie Schorr, who has potential but was by no means skilled at the point when she recorded these. I hope she’s gotten better with practice. She reads in a pleasant, engaging …
