Dog Gone Ghost by Angie Fox
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Super cute and quick read! Verity manages to get Frankie to help a little boy out with his dog issue. Despite being short this story made me chuckle... and tear up. Well worth the read! :)

A small space in the digital world to share thoughts on the books that get crammed into the tiny amounts of reading space I manage to scrape out of my overly-full schedule. Postings may not always be PC, and will most definitely have sprinklings of sarcasm spread throughout. They will always be my thoughts though so read or don't - it's up to you!

The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden
The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I have always been a fan of mythologies - most any of them, but am not at all familiar with Russian mythology. This story is beautifully rendered and makes me wish I had familiarized myself with Russian mythology years ago when I studied Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Norse mythologies.
Detailing is very visual - making you feel as though you are living the story with Vasilisa. I love the use of nicknames throughout the story which shows how different versions of names reflect different familial relationships in the culture.
Anyone who likes reading about other cultures and/or mythology would enjoy this book.

Kill Without Shame by Alexandra Ivy
Kill Without Shame by Alexandra Ivy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
What would you do to protect the love of your life?
Lucas St. Clair may come from money and prestige, but none of that has ever matter to him. As a member of ARES Security it is nothing more than a reason his "brothers" can tease him. Now he must go home to face his past if he is ever to have a future with the love of his life. The love he left behind...
Mia Ramon is strong-willed woman who has worked her way up from the daughter of a gardener to the powerful owner of a well-known landscaping business. Lucas is in her past - along with her broken heart. Or, so she thinks until he comes barrelling back into her life determined to protect her form danger she didn't know existed.
This is another action-packed thrill ride from Alexandra! Her writing is well-detailed, well-plotted, and full of adventure and romance. I haven't yet read a story she's penned that has disappointed me.
