This is a blog reviewing the latest book I have read along with the books I have self-published. Please feel free to follow along with my reading / writing journey.

Book 71 of The Boxcar Children series. The Alden children are at it again. This runs along the same vein as the others. We have a couple of suspicious characters and a lot of bad cooking and bad hotel service. The is something rotten in Denmark and it ain’t just the cooking. Well thought out…

This would be a follow on book to Talisman. It takes a lot for me to get through Mr King’s books. This is a dark book best read when the lights are on. This was a serial killer unlike any I have read about before. It takes a bit off the supernatural for one like…

Book 4 of Wings of Fire. This was a deepening of the storyline with a visit to mysterious black wing dragons. I loved this one as it was very insightful and confirmed a lot of the questions I had made my conclusions about. If you have enjoyed the series thus far this book will not…

Book 8 of the Michael Vey series or book 1 of the new series. Not sure what to call it. Oh yeah, Vey is back with his Electroclan. Great to see the gang back at it and it is also a return to some familiar territory. There is a lot of filler in the book,…

Book 3 of the Dark Paladin. This was the conclusion to the series. Several twists and turns but what I am surprised at was that there was very little focus on the levels. The restart was pretty good there were parts that felt lacking but overall I can see the basis on which his later…

Book 2 of the Dark Paladin series. This is a fantastic book albeit the main character has a sex fixation like a teenage boy. Aside from that the story is well told and leaves you wondering what is really going on in parts. Lots of twists and turns, including one right at the end. Excited…

Book 3 of the Wings of Fire series. Off to visit the Rainwings. They seriously cannot be as flighty and lazy as everyone keeps saying, right? Super cool descriptions and a whole new set of problems. It was nice that the author deviated from the whole get captured escape theme and took it a different…

Book 48 of Animorphs. This was a very dark book that jumps around a lot. In the end it is a full introspection for Rachel. Most of the series has grappled with the hidden cost of war. This kept on with that thought process. In the end it does not give us the conclusion of…

Book 70 of the Boxcar Children. What a great lesson and read. Parallels could be drawn from this to A Christmas Carol. Although told much differently, the moral seems similar and he also learns it from a ghost in a manner of speaking. I strongly recommend that this not be one you miss.

Book 2 of the Wings of Fire. This was a great follow on from the first book. It was nice to see Tsunami in her element. I love how they showed growth in her character. This is a twisting sinister series that keeps you asking who the god guys are if anyone. We shall see…
