Reviewing Dangerous Passions b..

Posted January 9, 2015 by Marsha in This one's a Keeper / 0 Comments

This is an older novel that like many books, has been reprinted.  A friend gave me a copy of Dangerous Passions a few months ago.  I just got around to reading it a few weeks ago, and have finally finished it.  Yes, that’s right – weeks. Here’s the book blurb from Goodreads: Let bestselling author […]

Let me start this review with a sort of disclaimer:  I have always loved Kay Hooper’s Bishop/Special Crimes Units novels.  That enjoyment doesn’t mean that I don’t know that some are better than others – but – I enjoy the stories nonetheless.  Having said that… from Goodreads: How do you make peace with the dead […]

A Blogging Slump

I hate to admit to this – I really do, but I am in such a blogging slump lately. Oh, I’m reading.  Maybe not as much but I am turning the pages of really good books.  I’m just not writing about the experience. And I don’t know why. I guess there really is no explanation […]

Secrets of Bella Terra by Chri..

    I thrive on a continuing story.  I want to know what happens to the secondary characters – I also want to know what I missed in the first book.   Just a few of the reasons I absolutely love reading a continuing storyline. Often times a trilogy or series starts off with a blast […]

Afraid To Die by Lisa Jackson

Posted December 8, 2014 by Marsha in This one's a Keeper / 0 Comments

  Returning to Grizzly Falls, Montana would be a lot more fun if they didn’t have so many serial murders around there!  But then, that would leave us with nothing new to read from the ongoing “to Die” series by Lisa Jackson. Once again murder returns to hover over the winter holidays of Detective Selena […]

Before She Dies by Mary Burton

Posted December 7, 2014 by Marsha in This one's a Keeper / 0 Comments

A crystal ball is not always necessary to know that evil walks among us. “Before She Dies” was an enjoyable read.  As a child of the carnival myself, many parts of the story had me smiling in memory of my childhood years traveling the carnival circuit with my parents. But.. to my knowledge we never […]

Dance Upon The Air by Nora Rob..

Posted December 4, 2014 by Marsha in This one's a Keeper / 0 Comments

The madness let loose on Salem Town was growing.  The death toll rising each day, and yet not one of the innocents murdered was what their pious accusers sought, not one was a witch.   It was with heavy hearts that the women known as Air, Earth and Fire cast their last spell on the mainland.  […]

There are some books that touch a special part of our reading hearts.  The characters are exciting, believable and we want to know more […]
