Review: Existence by Abbi Glines Pagan sees souls and most of the time she ignores them- until one talks to her. Not only does he talk, he saves her life. What could Death want from her and can you really change your destiny? I found this was an easy read and everything progressed fast enough to draw me in and keep me reading. I was completely drawn into the story. Sometimes when I read a book, it doesn’t get me hooked right away or it slows down and I get bored and start skimming it. This one did neither which was nice for a change. From the beginning, you find yourself immersed in a world and...
Review: Pantheons: The Game of the Gods by EJ Dabel Isaiah has spent the year training to keep his friends safe only to return and find it didn’t do any good. His friends are dead and the gods are now exposed and playing a game for the dominion. The question is- why, and what does this game mean, and does Isaiah know how to finally face his father?

It was like being let in on a secret, which was fun, and it made you rethink everything that happened in the book. I am not a...
Review: Pantheons EJ Dabel Isaiah doesn’t’ know his past until he happens upon a school and a principal willing to tell him who his father is, and that would make Isaiah a god, or rather, rather a godling. Now the only question is whether can he get revenge for his mother…. This book has a very comic book aspect- This book reminded me of reading comic books or manga (yes, I am a closet manga reader and my hubby makes fun of me excessively for it). This story was very much like a comic book in that there were tons of descriptions and action. Plots with many subplots and multiple characters- which...
Review: Incendiary by Amy Bartol Evie finally gets to meet her father, and it is not the reunion any father or daughter would like to have. Evie knows him and the two other seraphim that come with him. Evie is still fighting to keep away from Brennus, but now she has her father trying to call the shots. To make matters worse, her father is trying to remove her friends and the only family she has by replacing them. I like all the new complications- things get much more complicated when we find out who her father is and the memories she has of him from high school. Evie has known her father all along!...
