Book Review: Kiss River by Diane Chamberlain

Book Review : The White Rose by Amy Ewing
The White Rose by Amy Ewing just didn’t do it for me. Sadly this is one of these series that I have decided to abandon as it’s just not working for me. It could be a personal thing as maybe I’m just a bit too old for this book. I… Read more »

Book Review : Dead Dreams by Emma Right
Fab cover but the plot just lost me and the main character was so naïve and gullible that I couldn’t connect. I read this book as part of a blog tour however I have waited until the tour was over to post my review. So for all those wondering if… Read more »
