I really didn’t know much about Timekeeper going into it but oh I was so pleasantly surprised as I got swept up in this story! It ended up being my FIRST five star read of the year! I’m also so glad I listened to it on audio because the narration was so amazing! I seriously loved it. In Timekeeper we are in an alternate London where there are clock towers that regulate time — literally. If something happens to a clock tower, […]

Why Did I Read? I really loved An Ember in the Ashes! I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen to Elias and Laia and what was going to happen in the Empire. My Thoughts: As a whole, I definitely enjoyed this one. I’m actually having a hard time putting my thoughts together because there are aspects I REALLY liked but also things I really didn’t. For the most part though, this was an enjoyable read. Firstly, I really […]

I was really eager to see what exactly was going on with the attack and how Frances was going to go about her […]

Why Did I Read? It sounded really interesting! The synopsis grabbed my attention with the talk of a “dangerous society”. My Thoughts: This is a solid example of how sometimes audiobooks just don’t work well for certain books. There are secret groups, two in particular that oppose each other. The Circle and the… crap I don’t remember the name of the other group but I kept getting the two confused. And that was a problem because I couldn’t keep straight who […]

Why Did I Read? I was going to read this back around Christmastime but was actually so busy then that I didn’t get to it! But who says we can’t do Christmas at any time of the year 🙂 My Thoughts: So Cowboys for Christmas is split into three stories by Kim Law, Terri Osburn, and Liz Talley. All three are centered around one wedding in the small town of Holly Hills. Mary Catherine is the one getting married and she and her […]
