Deep Kiss of Winter

Deep Kiss of Winter by Kresley Cole


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
What more can you ask for with TWO stories in one book? Well, make that one by Gena Showalter and Kresley Cole!!! It's the best of both worlds I tell ya!

Untouchable
I couldn't have been any happier with this book unless she had made it a full book rather than a short story. I adored Daniella. And Murdoch, for what he had to go through. I was really happy with how things ended up and would love to see more of these characters later on.

Tempt Me Eternally
Wow, Gena really knows how to knock one outta the park! I can't get enough of her stories!! Aleaha was amazing and I would love to see this as a movie! She would be so cool. And the Rakan!? Come on Gena, get your characters some screen time! I'm anxious to read another AIR book so I can actually "see" these characters again.


My biggest problem with these short stories is that I get so used to the authors writing full stories that the "falling in love" and the action in these books feels so rushed! But I'm content. I am glad that they do this so everyone in the series you care about get's their own tale.

Regardless, both stories were AWESOME and I can't wait to read the next!!!

Review: A Bride for Jericho Bravo

A Bride for Jericho Bravo by Christine Rimmer


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I thought this book was pretty good. It was an easy, fun story to read. I really admired Marnie for her journey through the breakup. I actually would have like to see a longer book. The problem with these quick short books is the character figures out their personal problems and finds the happily ever after WAY faster than a real person. But whatever, that's why I love fiction!! :)

A Hunger Like No Other

A Hunger Like No Other by Kresley Cole


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow, I just couldn't put this book down! The difference Lore introduced in this book is incredible! The opening with Lachlain's situation was mind boggling. I love how this book shows that people of different "races" can be happy together reguardless of the animosity of their other cultures have.

Blood and Chocolate

Blood and Chocolate by Annette Curtis Klause


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow! This book was amazing!! It's a coming of age story of a shapeshifter, who's torn between her pack and humans. I've never had this perspective and obviously haven't lived it myself, but it was such a good read. I read this after seeing the movie, and as always the book is better. The amazing thing about the movie is that is is just based on the title of this book. It is NOTHING like the book so if you're gonna watch the movie because you loved the book you WILL be disappointed.

Saver Me Slowly

Savor Me Slowly by Gena Showalter


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I was disappointed at first because this was the first one that wasn't told from first person, but then I realized this way I could still read about the previous characters and enjoy them and I was okay with it.

As always, Gena delivers. It made me really think how it would feel if you had someone controlling your actions, and making you do things that you don't want to in order to survive.

Watchmen

Watchmen by Alan Moore


My rating: 2 of 5 stars
I can't really say I learned much from this book. It is more an example of the violence of human nature and what people will do with that violence in order to either keep the world "safe." Which in turn is the only way humans will ever find peace, through ultimate violence.

That's about all I got out of this story. I really wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be. Certain parts of this book were so violent to me I had to stop reading.

Awaken Me Darkly

Enslave Me Sweetly by Gena Showalter


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow, it was so hard to put this down. There is just something about a story told in the point of view of a female assassin. Eden was amazing. I found myself constantly chickening out when she was in these situations but she just kept on fighting. If only I could be that brave! It really was suspenseful, and even though I loved the previous book (Awaken Me Darkly) I think of the two so far, it's my favorite! Starting the third one now!

Also, the cover and title of this book really - to me- didn't have much to do. The title and cover makes you think it's going to be really ..well, you know what I mean. However, it wasn't the case. Everything was told wonderfully and keep you wanting to know what was going to happen next.
