​Life just got complicated for the agents of P.I.T as Ashlyn, Derek and Ever’s teenage daughter, makes her entrance. Derek soon discovers Ashlyn is hiding a hell of a lot more than she’s revealing. If that doesn’t complicate things enough, the team tries to set aside their grief so they can avenge Sarge’s murder and piece together clues an arsonist leaves for them, all with no idea how much danger they face with someone from Derek’s past returning to settle an old score. Ever Chace carries the weight of loss with her. Still hurting after the recent loss of her brother, she now has to deal with the death of a man who was like a father figure. Having made a heartbreaking decision, Ever comes face to face with her strong-willed, rebellious daughter, who has other ideas. With Odin poised to attack, Ever will have to decide if she can survive another personal sacrifice in order to save the world. The past, present, and future collide in the penultimate book in The Ever Chace Chronicles.

Susan Harris is a writer from Cork, Ireland and when she’s not torturing her readers with heart-wrenching plot twists or killer cliffhangers, she’s probably getting some new book related ink, binging her latest TV or music obsession, or with her nose in a book.​

Original Review Posted When eBook Released - 

So here we are! The penultimate book in what continues to be a complete roller-coaster ride of a series.  The stakes have never been higher than they are at the beginning of this book, and without giving spoilers, all I can say is that just when you think you might have figured out what's going to happen - I would bet good money that you haven't.

Anyone who follows my reviews knows that I have been a fan of this series since day 1, and Susan continues to push the limits, the action, and reader stress levels, in a way that few others do. 

If you haven't started this series yet - what are you waiting for?  Book 1 Skin and Bones is currently free! For those that have been anxiously awaiting this installment - you will NOT be disappointed.  The only down side is that when you are done, and your mouth is hanging open - you will realize that the wait is on again for the final installment.  On the plus side at least I don't think even Susan can manage to cliffhanger that one. 

A solid 5 stars from me and definitely Melanie's Muses approved!

Book Review - My Story: Anne Boleyn and Me by Alison Prince

My Story: Anne Boleyn and Me Official Blurb

When the King came riding in on his big, black horse, a murmer went up, because his tunic was stitched with the words, DECLARE I DARE NOT. All the ladies were giggling behind their hands, and I asked Mama what it meant. Her face had turned quite pink and she said, ..Never mind.., so I asked Rosanna later. She told me the words meant the King has a new love, but he dares not say her name.But everyone knows her name, of course. It is Anne Boleyn.

​
How did I get this book?
Susan sent it to me as part of my Christmas present.

Why did I choose to read this book:  I adore the Tudor history, especially anything focused around Anne Boleyn's story. 

And Now To The Review!

First Impressions:
This book is written in the form of journal entries from a servant. It starts with the writer being only 11, but there are very few entries for this age, and it quickly moves on. 

General Review
I love to read alternative perspectives, and although from the title I expected a more favorable account of life with Anne, it s clear early on that the writer strongly sides with Queen Katherine, having been raised for her early life as part of her court. 

The general history included appears to be accurate (based on what I have read / watched before), which is always a good sign, and this new perspective made for a very interesting read.  Many shows have taken the angle of showing things from the servants’ point of view with great success, and this for me was no different.  Although supposedly written as the girl in question aged, the only issue really was that the language didn't change. As most people age, even just with speech, the phrasing would be different, but this stayed the same from beginning to end.

Final Thoughts
I am not sure if this would be a book that many would enjoy, unless they already had an interest in that period in history.  A lot of what is written I know I interpreted with a bias based on what I already knew, which wasn't an issue, but I am not sure how well it would work as a cold read. Especially as the general age it is supposed to be aimed for would be 11-16 (based on normal Scholastic book tendencies).  That being said, I am thrilled to have this as a part of my collection. I can honestly say I enjoyed this unique take.

Rating
A solid 4 stars - with a note that this probably wouldn't be a general recommendation for every reader, just my personal enjoyment.

About The Book!

While the war between the kingdoms grows, the long-forgotten gods are beginning to take notice. And one of them has been waiting for this moment for a very long time…

Malory has survived betrayal, an assassination attempt, and the Battle of Allondale. But months later, with the Unified Kingdoms at war, she is a queen in name only. All she rules is in ruins and her enemies won’t stop until she and Jamis are dead and their lands claimed.

Hidden deep in the forested Argralands, Malory—along with Jamis, Kennard, Katherine, Josef, and Isobel—has been systematically raiding the resources of Roarke and his allies. As Malory and Jamis work to bolster their troops so they can finally conquer their enemies, a new threat emerges that leaves all the kingdoms at risk. But ever-shifting alliances and a broken unification leave Malory questioning loyalties—even among those closest to her. Can Malory build her armies before a devastating loss brings her to the brink of her own ruin?

Queen of the Ruins picks up seamlessly where The High Crown Chronicles left off and draws the reader more deeply into this world of stunning imagery, dynamic characters, and shifting political alliances. A blend of dark, vengeful tone and deeply emotional moments will draw readers through this action-packed novel and leave their hearts thundering until the final page.

Queen Of The Ruins (The High Crown Chronicles Book 2) is now available! If you haven't read book one you can grab your free copy at the link above!

Book Review - The Butchers' Blessing by Ruth Gilligan

The Butchers' Blessing Official Blurb

Set in the gothic wilds of Ireland, The Butchers’ Blessing is a haunting and unforgettable thriller brimming with secrecy, tradition, and superstition.

Every year, Úna prepares for her father to leave her. He will wave goodbye early one morning, then disappear with seven other men to traverse the Irish countryside. Together, these men form the Butchers, a group that roams from farm to farm, enacting ancient methods of cattle slaughter. 

The Butchers’ Blessing moves between the events of 1996 and the present, offering a simmering glimpse into the modern tensions that surround these eight fabled men. For Úna, being a Butcher’s daughter means a life of tangled ambition and incredible loneliness. For her mother, Grá, it’s a life of faith and longing, of performing a promise that she may or may not be able to keep. For nonbeliever Fionn, the Butchers represent a dated and complicated reality, though for his son, Davey, they represent an entirely new world—and potentially new love. For photographer Ronan, the Butchers are ideal subjects: representatives of an older, more folkloric Ireland whose survival is now being tested. As he moves through the countryside, Ronan captures this world image by image—a lake, a cottage, and his most striking photo: a man, hung upside down in a pose of unspeakable violence.

Thrilling, dark, and richly atmospheric, The Butchers’ Blessing is an engrossing incantation—mesmerizing in both language and story—conjuring a family and a country on the edge of irrevocable change.

Category
They call it a psychological thriller - I'm not sure where I would put it - it is definitely not thrilling.

How did I get this book?
The Amazon Vine Program offered it to me.

Why did I choose to read this book:  The blurb sounded great! I love a bit of folklore mixed in with my mystery and thrillers, and with it being set in Ireland I hoped for great things.

And Now To The Review!

First Impressions:
The books starts close to current day events with a photography exhibition setting up. This leads back to what you think is going to be the history and hopefully solving of the "murder" victim that was photographed. Not a gripping beginning but the setup is reasonable.

General Review
Firstly, let me start by saying ANY book like this will always be better if at least a little of it is tinted with some sort of actual history or myth, even connected in the slightest way.  I did find the whole idea of the "Butchers" quite intriguing, until I reached out to Irish Author Susan Harris, who could find nothing about this being anything other than fiction. That in itself shouldn't be an issue, but it was for me. I think if the synopsis had made it clear that EVERYTHING in it was fiction, including the folklore, it would have set better expectations. 

The jumping between now and 1996 was a little bizarre, just in the construct. The author refers to the modern day interruptions as interludes, which they are quite clearly not, and honestly, expect for the one at the beginning and the end, the middle ones could have been omitted entirely without any effect on the story. 

This book just didn't work for me. I did want to know the "who did it" part, and I do like to try and get there before the author announces it. In this case I wish I hadn't bothered. 

Final Thoughts
I just don't know who this book would appeal too, or who the marketing team thinks would actually enjoy this.  I literally cannot think of a single person I could recommend it to. From my knowledge of the Irish, they wouldn't like that it is all made up, especially as they have enough legends and myths surrounding rural places as it is.  People from England, like myself, would remember the Mad Cow Disease scare, and being reminded of it did nothing to edge the story in my favor. Now living in America, I can't see American's relating to it. There are too many colloquialisms that unless familiar with the ideas, especially from before the 1990s, would make it very unrelatable. Then finally you have the mystery, which was enough to catch my attention in the synopsis but is just not handled well and has a very unsatisfactory ending. 

Rating
A generous 1 1/2 stars that I will round to a 2 for Amazon rating purposes. Most of that is for the idea of The Butchers themselves, that, even though it is fiction, was a well-developed notion.

Blurb About The Book

SOMETIMES ANGELS COME IN HUMAN FORM.
Kaitlyn Summers is heartbroken.
When she receives an invitation to spend Christmas with her family on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, she feels it may be the perfect medicine.
She throws herself into helping her sister’s struggling art gallery, even taking a temporary job for extra money by looking after a little girl from her nephew’s school. She also begins to paint again, something she’s been unable to do since her breakup. It’s tempting to stay on Kauai, but she has obligations back in Los Angeles.
Life gets more complicated when circumstances keep putting her close to Leonardo Medici. Not only is he drop-dead gorgeous, he’s a local celebrity. But Kaitlyn can’t shake the feeling he’s hiding something.
Should she believe the rumors that he’s romancing half the island’s single women?
Or is the random sound of wind chimes when he’s close-by a sign that an angel is near and the secret to her happily ever after?

Review

Mary Ting is a new to me author.  I have seen various books from her floating around but this is the first one I have sat down to read. If you like a little cozy little Christmas romance, then this is probably a good fit for you.  Followers of my reviews will know that I do love a little Hallmark style romance, even more so in the holidays, and this fits nicely into that category.  Sweet and complete, no cliffhangers to torture you, and the general happy ever after that you would expect, the journey flows nicely with the protagonist being a little stronger that some others I have read, which is definitely a plus for me.  For those familiar with the two different Hallmark Christmas variations, this fits more into the "Movies and Mysteries Miracles of Christmas" vibe rather than the general "Countdown To Christmas". For those that aren't familiar, watch for my upcoming 10 must watch Christmas Movies 2020 vlog premiering later this week!


A solid 4 star read for me, and a bargain for those with Kindle Unlimited!
