    An American Girl in Italy by Aubrie Dionne My rating: 5 of 5 stars First of all, I had no idea this was like a sequel to “Playing the Maestro” that I read and loved by this author previously. However, don’t worry if you have not read the other book for the author gives you everything you need to know. […]

    Beautiful Beautiful by Heidi Garrett My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book was decidedly different from anything I had ever read. The story expertly shifts between the present day family scene where a fairy tale has been told and relates it to an actual story that occurred in the family life. I will be honest–I loved the family telling […]

    Frankie Dupont And The Mystery Of Enderby Manor by Julie Anne Grasso My rating: 4 of 5 stars I am a lover of mysteries, and all too often, it can be difficult to review young adult mysteries. This was one of those books. Don’t get me wrong. It fits into the tween adult reading genre for sure, and the mystery […]

    Jack Templar and the Lord of the Vampires by Jeff Gunhus My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the third book in the series that I have read, and although it is book three, it honestly can be read as a standalone book. The author does an excellent job of introducing the characters and main premise behind the book. […]
