    Andrey Belaretsky gets caught in a rain storm. His carriage takes him to the castle of Marsh Firs. There Andrey meets Nadzeya Yanovsky. It seems that Nadzeya is being stalked by sinister phantoms that go on a hunt at night. Andrey decides to stay and help Nadzeya. Andrey gets an up close and personal look at the Wild King’s Hunt.

    I am a little embarrassed to admit that I have never heard of Uladzimir or that this book was made into a movie. This book is not something that I would typically read but I decided to give it a chance.

    To be perfectly honest. I did find it different in an odd, good way. However I was not feeling it in the beginning and put the book down and gave up on it. It was only after I read some of the other reviews on this book that I decided to give it another chance. The book did get better once I was into it a while. The Wild King’s Hunt party is one scary hunting party. I sure would not want to be the hunted. This book is character driven and is very descriptive which really helped.

    I am not a hard core fan of everything Titanic however I do find this subject matter to be fascinating. Thus a reason I wanted to check this book out. I liked the concept that Mr. Brewster brought with this book by focusing on one type of class of passengers. However I think that I might have preferred to read about the third class passengers more. Only because I think that there lies more history in their story and I would have felt the more human aspect then I got from reading about the first class passengers. After a while I did grow bored of the first class passengers and their stories.

    What I did like about this book was learning about the maiden voyage of the Titanic. Mr. Brewster did a good job of describing the ship from the large state rooms, the ship captain’s daily walks to check each deck and the engine room to the fact that the crew was pretty much sailing blind without any binoculars so the look outs could not see that far ahead of them for any signs of danger.

    A novel about two teenage girls with superpowers and radically different agendas, destined for a collision that will rock the world: Separated by thousands of miles, two young women are about to realize their extraordinary powers which will bind their lives together in ways they can't begin to understand. Protecting others. Maintaining order. Being good. These are all important things for Bonnie Braverman, even if she doesn't understand why. Confined to a group home since she survived the car accident that killed both her parents, Bonnie has lived her life until now in self-imposed isolation and silence; but when an opportunity presents itself to help another girl in need, Bonnie has to decide whether to actually use the power she has long suspected she has. Power that frightens her. Across the country, Lola LeFever is inheriting her own power by sending her mother over a cliff...literally. For Lola the only thing that matters is power; getting it, taking it, and eliminating anyone who would get in the way of her pursuit of it. With her mother dead and nothing to hold her back from the world any longer, Lola sets off to test her own powers on anyone unfortunate enough to cross her. And Lola's not afraid of anything. One girl driven to rescue, save, and heal; the other driven to punish, destroy, and kill. And now they're about to meet.

    Eliana is a famous cat burglar. She didn’t use to be a thief. She became one after her love Demetrius killed her father. Now Eliana is hoping with her current job to raise enough money to she her father’s dreams come true of living in the open amongst the humans.

    Demetrius can not stop thinking about Eliana. After hearing about Eliana’s arrest, he jumps into action to save her. If only she would trust him.

    Rapture’s Edge is the third book in the Night Prowler series. I am a fan of this series and author. I like the Ikati. I like the ability that they can turn into mist. In addition, all of the ikati women and men are strong and sexy.

    So far the first and third book are my favorites. The banter between Eliana and Demetrius is steamy. It helped to build up the intensity with Eliana and Demetrius. There was a lot of running around but luckily the running around happened in the gorgeous area of France. A nice ending that leads up to the next book. I hope that the Queen is featured more prominently in a future book. She becomes more intriguing to me the more I get to learn about her.

    Michael and Patrick are brothers. They enjoy playing games. Thus when they receive instructions from “The Game Master” they don’t hesitate. Armed with a rifle and the clothes on their back, they go out into the real world to find other survivors. It will not be easy as they have to fight off the Bellows. It will be a battle to the end.

    If the End Games is Mr. Martin’s debut novel then I can’t wait to read his second one.
    O-M-G. This book became an instantaneous hit and one day read for me. Michael and Patrick are such great characters. It was nice that Mr. Martin created the two brothers around his younger brother and himself. It helped to lend to the story and the characters. It made Michael and Patrick feel more real.

    The Bellows are creepy. I sure would not want to run across any of them. However the Bellows are not just creatures. As the story progressed they grew smarter and smarter which made them more dangerous. The ending ended with a big bang.

    My Sister's Voice

    Some aspects of this novel were terrific--the Deaf culture, twins separated at birth, adoption/foster homes and so forth--but there was too much raw stuff such as language and sex.

    Hannah Gregory is worried about what she is going to do after the death of her parents. It is up to her to care for her younger sisters. Hannah just may have found the answer to her prayers when she spots an advertisement in the grocery store. The ad is for a switchboard operator.

    Lincoln Cole works for the bank. He pays a visit to the Gregory homestead. It seems that Hannah’s father took out a second mortgage on the house and defaulted on the loan. The bank is foreclosing on the home.

    Luckily for Hannah she meets Rosie. Rosie is also a new switchboard operator. Her mother has a cottage that just became available. She offers it to the girls.

    Lincoln may be handsome but Hannah remembers that he is the enemy.

    I loved Hannah. She has lots of spunk. She is a free thinker and the type of woman I would imagine myself to be back in these times if I was living in them. Hannah’s two sisters are just as entertaining. I can not wait to read their stories.

    Lincoln is easy on the eyes. I almost felt sorry for the way that Hannah treated him, except that I knew that Lincoln could handle Hannah. Now that I have been introduced to this author, I will be checking out more of her books. When Love Calls you answer it and read a copy of this book!

    Where Have All the Pop Stars Gone? - Volume 2

    I must admit that I picked up this book with the intention of giving it as a gift for my parents. I myself did not grow up in this era of music featured in this book, so I am not really familiar with most of the musicians in this book with the exception of The Moody Blues and Ray Stevens....

    I must admit that I picked up this book with the intention of giving it as a gift for my parents. I myself did not grow up in this era of music featured in this book, so I am not really familiar with most of the musicians in this book with the exception of The Moody Blues and Ray Stevens.

    So I was not as interested in the rest of the stories as much. However I did find them intriguing. The authors did a good job of giving the readers and fans of these performers a inside look into the performers lives right from the performer's mouths themselves. Although I did find that the authors did a good job of condensing the facts to the most important ones and in nice chronological order. I liked reading about each of the musician’s lives and what they are up to now in the present day.

    This book would make a good gift for fans of this era. They will get to reminisce about the good ole times and the music.
