Labyrinth, Kate Mosse . . .

... I'm not sure on this book. Have started it - I got it from the library a few days ago - as have finished Dark Flame and don't have any more books (not until Mother's Day - but I don't know about those)!!!

The begining is hard to get into, from the looks of things it flips from "present" to the 1200s. The present sections are very hard going, the 1200s sections aren't too bad.

I will persevere but boy will it be a slog to get through.

The reason I chose it was becuase it was supposed to have got good reviews and was sat all alone on a shelf calling to me, but after looking on Amazon it has poor reviews from "real people".

Will let you know what I think later, but so far it's not going to rate very high!!

Book 14 - Shadowlands


Another of "The Immortals" series finished. Book number 3.

This book was better than the previous and Number 2 (as I correctly - and fingers crossed - predicted) was a set up for this one.

You saw/read more of Evers friends and there was more in depth of Ever's feelings and past lives, relationships etc.

This book much like Number 2 seems to set up Number 4

So this book gets a 4/5 from me!

Next, you guessed right - Number 4!!!!

Starting Off Early!

When I'm in between books and have no budget for new ones, I go to the library. Along with me is my baby girl. Bless her, she loves coming and now chooses the ones she wants to take out - "I take it to Lady mummy"

Here she is enjoying a good read:

Book 13 - Blue Moon


I seemed to have been MIA for a couple of weeks!

Well I am back now and have finished another book!

This is the second in "The Immortals" series.

I liked this book and it did keep me wanting to read more but I do have to say I didn't enjoy it as much as the 1st book.

There were some characters missing which meant for a lot of the book it is was just Ever and her internal dialogue - which is good for some of the book but not all. The book did set up for "fingers crossed" a good third book.

Despite the negative the book did keep me reading and it didn't put me off so because of that this book gets a 3-3.5/5 from me!

Hopefully I won't be going MIA again anytime soon!!
