Dark Minds

These books are like potato chips

Dark Minds by Michelle Diener

May 31, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 1 Comment

I very much enjoyed the last two books in the series, so when I needed a break from some heavier material, I picked this one up. Sure, it’s not particularly complicated in the plot or characterization department, but it’s fun and engrossing! This is the third in the series and I wouldn’t recommend reading it as a standalone as a lot of the world building relies on you already knowing the events of the past two books. Cam was expecting a routine mission to interview […]

Dark Deeds

“Fiona Russell was hopefully going to be a lot less trouble.”

I very much enjoyed the first book in this series (AIs! Aliens! And a dash of romance!) so of course I immediately borrowed the next one. It’s both very similar and very different from the first book, but I still had a great time reading it. Grih battleship captain Hal is not having a good day. After pursuing a Krik raiding party onto a Garmman trading ship, they discover another human – though thankfully this one doesn’t seem to come with a Class 5 like […]

“Dealing with a crisis, wrapped in a disaster, surrounded by a mystery”

Dark Horse by Michelle Diener

April 25, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 1 Comment

I’m not usually a fan of alien abduction books, but I originally picked this up back in 2020 and it was absolute brain catnip. Watching these characters “dealing with a crisis, wrapped in a disaster, surrounded by a mystery” was ridiculously fun, so when I heard the final book in the series was coming out, I decided to dive back in and read the whole thing. Dav, captain of a Grih exploration ship, doesn’t know what to think when he encounters a Class 5 Tecran […]

Wave Rider

Look, this book has space dinosaurs, enough said.

CBR13Bingo: The Wilds (I mean, it’s alien wilds, but seriously this entire book is mostly set outdoors) I’d read and enjoyed one book by this author before (the first in her Class 5 series) so I jumped on the chance to try out this one. A scientist and what sounds like a surfer dude running from bad guys? Sounds like my kind of thing! This is fifth in a series, but I read it as a standalone. First off, a little background. The small moon […]
