Livin' La Vida Llama ~ A Lighthearted Look at Life Over 60
Each time that I start one of the Three Tomes Bookshop books, I smile with anticipation of what adventure Jacqueline will have next. As expected, Hexes, Exes, and Codexes was no exception. I won't give any spoilers, but oh, did my heart brighten when a certain book hit the floor. Like Jacqueline, it brought more curiosity... Continue Reading →
I didn't realize I was missing reading books with magic and intrigue. Luckily, I came across Blade of Hope and immediately lost myself in the Queendom of Thornwilde. Harlow's story grabbed me at the start and did not let go. As other reviewers have noted, there are a few dryish spots, but they weren't dry... Continue Reading →
I am a big fan of Ms. Cambridge's Three Tomes Bookshop series, which is written under the name Colleen Gleason. So, when I learned she was doing a book tour a few months ago and had a stop fairly close to where I live, I jumped at the chance to go. I even brought my... Continue Reading →
This is by far my favorite retelling of Cinderella. Although "retelling" may not be quite the right word. This book has so many wonderful twists and turns that I found myself thoroughly enchanted by Ella's story…but it is definitely a tale of its own! Ms. Carroll's writing style captivated me from the start, reeling me... Continue Reading →

I just closed The Duchess Gamble and jumped right into this review. I knew if I waited longer it would be harder to write because once I've finished a review, the story is well and truly over. The dialog between Celia and Gabriel, mixed with the feelings they don't say aloud builds perfect tension as... Continue Reading →
White Heather is a wonderful, well-crafted tale. Catriona's story is woven deftly with Robert's as we are drawn into their worlds. Each of their stories starts with unrelated, heartbreaking situations. As we get to know them and they get to know each other, we're drawn into mystery and adventure with twists and turns in just...

Let me start by saying I loved this book. However, my timing for starting it left something to be desired. This is by no means the fault of the author. I blame my husband. You see just as the sun was setting while we were away for a conference he attended, he declared that the... Continue Reading →
I sit here, smiling, thinking about A Princess in Plaid and how to review it. My mind wanders off to favorite parts of the book that I will not disclose here for fear of spoiling any of it for you. But, that is why I love this book. It makes my mind wander, and linger... Continue Reading →
