This is one of those compilation stories where several women’s lives intersect. There are three main women, two of them who have husbands with secrets. I gave this book 2 stars. Here’s a breakdown…
KayKay #CRB6 Review #12 The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion
I normally read science fiction and fantasy, but last year one of my favorite books was ‘Where’d You Go Bernadette‘, a beautifully written story with a quirky lead. This book followed along that vein. The story of Don Tillman (who is undiagnosed, but has Asperger’s), a genetics professor. It’s about fitting in, it’s about being yourself, it’s about growing, it’s (of course) about love. I gave this book 4 stars. Here’s a breakdown…
KayKay #CRB6 Review #11 Night Broken (A Mercy Thompson Novel) by Patricia Briggs
This book falls into my ”Procedurals” category (series in which each book is about the main character solving a problem). I’m not a fan of procedurals, but I am a huge fan of Mercy Thompson. She is a kick-a$$ female character who can take care of herself, but she doesn’t have to go at it alone. She is married to the Alpha of a werewolf pack and, although the pack has some issues, they pull together as a team. I give this book 4 stars. Here’s a […]
KayKay #CRB6 Review #10 Honor’s Knight by Rachel Bach
Honor’s Knight is the second book in the Paradox series by Rachel Bach. The series is told from the perspective of Devi Morris, a peasant mercenary who just wants to be a Royal Knight for the King. She is continuing her service on The Glorious Fool and trying to figure out what she is and how to accomplish her goal. This book uncovers more about the true mission of The Glorious Fool. I give this book 3 stars. Here’s a breakdown…
KayKay #CRB6 Review #09 The Republic of Thieves by Scott Lynch
The Republic of Thieves is the third book in the Gentleman Bastards series by Scott Lynch. In the first two books trained thief Locke Lamora is constantly struggling to get ahead of his situation (although he just seems to dig himself a deeper hole). He’s still behind in this installment (and starting on death’s doorstep), and this time he’s faced with a political battle to win and a love to recover. While I thought this would be the last book in the series, I was surprised at a twist that could extend Locke’s adventures. […]
KayKay #CBR6 Review #08 Wise Man’s Fear by Patrick Rothfuss
This is my second time reading this book, and I have to say it’s better than I remembered. It is one of those books that once you pick it up, it absorbs you completely. It was the first thing I picked up in the morning and the last thing I put down at night. This story picks up with Kvothe’s at the University. He ends up taking some time off, due to his notorious misadventures, and he extends his story beyond the University. Like it’s predecessor, I give […]
