Time: Thursday, 3:14 pm I stifled a yawn behind my elbow, running a hand through my hair as I blinked hard. It had been a long day, and I was ready for my shift to be over. Just a little less than an hour and I'd be home. I'd just start doing a bit of … Continue reading Tales from the Café: Item Unavailable
Author: R
Twenty-something author who loves telling stories more than anything else.
Yes, I know, I know. I talked to you about book 1 in this series last week. I'm sorry. But I wanted this book to sit on its own, because it really begins to delve into the meat and potatoes of this series, and I didn't want to bog down the last review. This one … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: UNFORGIVEN by Stephanie Erickson
One of the most difficult things to nail in writing, I've found, is establishing setting. If a world is different from our own, it's very tempting to "info dump" and try to establish as much as possible right up front so that everything is understood. It's been fairly well established that this is bad form … Continue reading Tossed in the Deep End
I've been reading enough lately that I think the Saturday book review will become a regular thing from now on. I don't know that I'll have one EVERY Saturday, but at least for a while I should have enough books to fill it up. Anyway! This is another Story Plant book, that I have received … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE CHANGING SEASON by Steven Manchester
Time: Monday, 1:48 pm I was scheduled to come in at 2, but I figured jumping in a bit early was never going to be a problem. The rush was slowing down, and I could tell it had been a doozy, just from how much still needed to be done and cleared. James, our general manager … Continue reading Tales from the Café: Tabula Rasa
To be honest, I don't remember how I came upon this book. I'm guessing something popped up on either Facebook or Twitter from the author, offering the first two books in a trilogy for free, and I decided “well hey, why not, free books are good.” Because I can't find anything in my email prior … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: UNSEEN by Stephanie Erickson
I've been involved in several debates in regards to book life and whatnot. You've seen a few of them: e-books versus paper books, Kindle vs. Nook, writing in books vs. not... There's been a bunch of them, but none has ever garnered as strong of a response as one I entered into unknowingly. The battle … Continue reading To Keep or Not to Keep
I don't normally post on weekends, but I want this to come out before Valentine's Day--so have a special book review! Disclaimer: I was provided copies of all three novellas in exchange for my honest review. And hey, a nice tropical romance series is just what a chilly February weekend needs, yeah? The full trilogy … Continue reading !!Special Saturday Edition!! BOOK REVIEW: HAWAIIAN HEARTBREAK TRILOGY
A/N: Incredibly fitting for the moment, as the past few days before I write this have been rife with Internet problems at home... Date: Wednesday, 12:38 pm The lunch rush would be here any minute, and all I had to do was make sure my best smile was on my face and we'd be fine. … Continue reading Tales from the Café: Page Cannot Load
I received this book as an ARC through The Story Plant, in exchange for an honest review. After my somewhat lackluster experience with thrillers when I read and reviewed BLIND JUSTICE, I was a little hesitant to read GIVE US THIS DAY. Luckily, one of my fellow reviewers and someone whose opinion I can usually … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: GIVE US THIS DAY by Tom Avitabile
