Carbon( Book Two Of The Watcher Series) by AJ Eversley

 37939976. sy475

 I loved this book! It was interesting to see how Sawyer was able to figure out what it means to be a carbon and finding out what happened to Kenzie after the events in book 1. The dynamic between Max and Sawyer in the first half of the book made me laugh. I look forward to reading the next installment in this imaginative and entertaining series.

Magic Lessons: The Prequel to Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman

 51007620. sy475

 This work of historical fiction was such a wonderful read! I was immediately swept up in Maria Owen's story. I loved the sections which read like a guidebook for the practice of magic as it allows the reader to become fully immersed in Maria Owen's world. The author was able to convey the horror of the Salem witch trials. I loved that there were so many strong female characters in this book.

Resurrection ( Amelia Doss Book# 1) by Audrey Brice and Andre Gonzalez

 Resurrection (Amelia Doss Series, Book 1) by [Andre Gonzalez, Audrey Brice]

I really loved this paranormal slasher read!  Amelia Doss is  terrifying not only because of her psychosis but also due to her ability to hide.  This was a very visceral read.  The parts which delved into the mind of Amelia Doss were especially disturbing.  The small town with an infamous serial killer was reminiscent of Haddonfield from the Halloween movie franchise. I look forward to the next installment in this exciting series!

I really loved the setting and the creepy atmosphere throughout the book. I liked how each character was nuanced and complex. The isolation of the monastery contrasted really well with the characters being watched through live streaming. The shocking twists throughout the story made the story even more engaging. I can't wait to read more titles by this excellent author!

Keeper of Time: Book Four Of The Wealth Of Time Series by Andre Gonzalez

 54807480. sy475

 I really enjoyed reading about Chris's rise to the role of Keeper of Time. With each book Chris becomes even more twisted which is fun to read. I can vividly picture Chris' expression and behavior. Many of his antics make me laugh. It was a joy to pick up Martin's story. The book ended on a major cliffhanger. I can't wait to read the next book in this highly engaging and entertaining series!

Throwaway Girls by Andrea Contos

 Throwaway Girls by [Andrea Contos]

 I found the plot and characters in this story engaging. I loved how the main character went about getting all of the information she needed to solve the mystery. There was a big twist at the end that I never saw coming. The only thing that I found confusing was the main character went by a different name in some of the chapters. I assumed it was a completely different person. It wasn't clear to me what was going on until it was spelled near the end of the novel. I would would read more books by this author.
