A quick, fun read that expands on Matthew & Josephine's story. Verity & Frankie undertake a mission to help Matthew, and almost manage to lose Frankie's urn!

Full of the quick, fun wit and sarcasm that I've come to expect from Angie's characters this novella is not a disappointment!

The Dirt on The Ninth Grave by Darynda Jones

The Dirt on Ninth Grave by Darynda Jones
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

**I received an e-ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.**
---------------------------------
Considering the cataclysmic events at the end of Eighth Grave After Dark, I really wasn't sure what to expect from this book. But, WOW! Darynda knocked another one out of the park! I found I couldn't put it down!

Charley's family has found her - despite her disappearing act and amnesia, and surrounded her in the hopes that little reminders will help jog her memory. While she feels drawn to them, she is more worried about the fact that she can see dead people and animals than why they feel so familiar to her. Unfortunately, it takes the ultimate sacrifice by one family member to bring everything back into focus so that she can save the world - and herself.

Demons by Ednah Walters

Demons by Ednah Walters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story brought Eirik's life into focus, and showed much more depth to his character. The descriptions are detailed enough that you can envision yourself right next to him and Celestia as they learn about and explore his "home" of Hel's realm.

This is a strong story filled with detail like all of Ednah's stories. I love the spunk & strength of Celestia especially when it is paired with Eirik. He is strong compassionate and loyal which pairs well with her character.

I can't wait for Heroes!

Grimnirs by Ednah Walters

Grimnirs (Grimnirs Book 1) by Ednah Walters
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wow! I loved this story. Cora is much more developed than in the first two books, and Echo... well, he made the story worthwhile! It's the details incorporated into the story line that make this series so enjoyable to read. I really liked how this book wrapped up so many of what I felt were "loose threads" from the previous two books while leaving a couple of new threads hanging for the continuation of the series.

Be warned - this book makes the jump from YA to adult reading. There are definitely scenes I would not be comfortable with my daughter reading.

I have been unable to finish this book. It has a sound premise, and the writing is good. Unfortunately, it just didn't draw my interest enough to get me to keep reading.

Recombinant by Shannon Mayer & Denise Grover Swank

Recombinant by Shannon Mayer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rachel & Lea are about to crash into each others' lives and nothing will ever be the same!

While I read a lot of paranormal and urban fantasy, this story line takes on a whole different aspect to the reality of life while using paranormal elements. I love the sarcasm and wit displayed by both heroines, and how both refuse to give up.

What to say? I laughed, I cried, I'm going through withdrawl... An epic ending to an emotional and action-packed series. Rylee tried to play by the "rules', but learns that her heart is always a better guide. The timing of this book couldn't have been better considering recent events in the news. I still have one previous book to read so technically the series isn't done for me yet, but I'm all ready hoping for a continuance down the road with 'Cella.

The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers by Angie Fox
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

**I received this audio book for free in exchange for an honest review.**
-------------------------
I LOVE this series - the sarcasm, the wit, the action, the imagination, the relationships - it all works together so well. The only thing I love more than this series? Hearing it read to me! The audio version of this book brings the characters to life in a much more vibrant way than when I read it to myself.

I had a hard time "putting it down" to attend to work!

Firestorm by Shannon Mayer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

**I received an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review.**
----------------------
This time, Lark takes us into the fiery world of the Pit and all the intrigue it holds. Ordered by her father to face the charges levied against her by the Fire Elementals for having killed several of their Enders, Lark has no choice but to travel to the Pit along with Ash. When she seeks guidance from the Mother Goddess she is also charged with saving those who cannot save themselves while n the Pit.

The characters in this series are so developed you can't help but empathize with them as they battle their way through another sticky situation.

Another fast-paced, fun read in another highly-imaginative, well-crafted world by Shannon Mayer! I can't wait to read Windburn!

On the Hunt by Alexandra Ivy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

**I was given an ARC by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.**
--------------------------------------
Four of today’s most intriguing paranormal authors entice readers deep into the shadows, where vampires, immortals, and other supernatural creatures heat up the night...
--------------------------------------

I requested this book because of Alexandra Ivy. I've read the majority of her work, and love it. To be honest I didn't even realize there were 4 stories in this I thought it was just 2 until after I finished the first story and was curious as to why my kindle said I was only 26% finished! lol

On the Hunt did not disappoint. A strong (stubborn) hero paired with an equally strong (stubborn) heroine leads to an explosive adventure during which they both realize they had some growing up to do before they could approach the life they had hoped to have with understanding.

Scorpius Rising pairs another dynamic duo who have "alpha" issues in a race against nature & time. Each has their own desired outcome for the research that is being done. Can they work out their differences?

It took me a few pages to figure out what was going on in Phantom Embrace, but once I did the read was well worth it. Yuri & Cat have a relationship unlike any I'd read about before which kept me going through the whole of their story.

Stake Out was a quick, fun read with a mysterious twist - no romance here, but a great read just the same. It proves that jealousy doesn't end with death. ;)
