  • The Remnant

    Book 10 of the Left Behind series. This was what the lady book was missing, plenty of curses and plenty miracles. This book keeps you on edge all the way through. I enjoyed this title and am looking forward to the next.

  • The Prophecy

    Book 34 of Animorphs. This was a deepening story not a major confrontation. The only thing that makes this interesting is that perhaps this could create a cavalry situation later in the series. Other than that, this is not a must read for the series. That said it was still a fun read.

  • Roadwork

    This is a Richard Bachman/Stephen King novel with a really nice forward by Stephen King. This novel was a stroll down crazy lane. I loved that with this antihero you could relate with the loss he had and then the roadwork states and he slowly goes into a deep dark depression. I love that there…

  • Firestarter

    What can be said about the writing of a master? The book was delightful and engaging. He does a superb job at making the characters real. The situation is engaging and leaves you pondering long after you put down the novel. Recommend for mature audiences.

  • The Castle Mystery

    Book 33 of the Boxcar Children. This was a fun fast paced mystery with plenty of suspects and lots of motives. The reveal was perfect and a secret passageway was an awesome addition.

  • The Illusion

    Book 33 of Animorphs. I really enjoyed the idea on this one and hope that the author capitalized on what happens in this book in future stories. We do get introduced to a new villain and I loved the back story. The series continues to fire on all cylinders.

  • The Great Gatsby

    What can you say about a classic that is so powerful it makes you want to write something similar. Or that so many years later is reproduced as a movie yet again. For it’s genera I feel that this work is as great as Lord of the Rings was for the fantasy genera our pivotal…

  • The Separation

    Book 32 of Animorphs. This book was a fun twist on the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde story. A definite look at the juxtaposing personalities in all of us. While there is a confrontation with the Yerks, this was mainly about the group themselves. And I did like that the ending like so many in…

  • The Promise of Discipleship

    In this book Neal A Maxwell talks about what it is to be a disciple. The path is fraught with a plethora of problems. If you’re looking to become a more dedicated disciple then this is one I would recommend you not miss. I felt uplifted and enlightened as I read it.

  • The Conspiracy

    Book 31 of the Animorphs series. This one I call a tribute to those to fight for their country and return with invisible emotional scars. Fast paced with hard decisions. Aside from then going on the offensive for once you also get to see a confrontation between Jake and Tom. I expect the author to…
