Review of “Always Look Twice” by Elizabeth Goddard

“Always Look Twice” by Elizabeth Goddard is an excellent Christian fiction novel that will appeal to the reader who enjoys mystery with a touch of romance. Many people would agree that facing one’s past can be a challenge and something they are not overly eager to do. The main characters in the book, Heath and Harper, are doing just that. They struggle with their past, and throughout the book, their decisions are heavily influenced by their past experiences. They are both carrying a sense of guilt and feel they do not deserve happiness. This book is one that will hold the reader’s attention from beginning to end!

Review of “A Distance Too Grand” by Regina Scott

I’m pretty sure that “A Distance Too Grand” is the first novel I’ve read by Regina Scott. It is the first in a series. I have to say that reading this book which is set in the Grand Canyon has really made me want to go see the Grand Canyon for myself. This book is a historical romance novel but I have to say it is also somewhat suspenseful to me. Not scary suspense but still suspenseful. During the expedition, the main characters are on they start feeling like someone is following or watching them which creates some suspense. They feel like this because of different occurrences while out in the middle of nowhere. They should be the only ones around, but are they? I am glad that this book is not a stand-alone because I definitely want to know more. I am personally hoping for at least two more books after this one. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes to read fiction.

Review of Irene Hannon’s “Dark Ambitions”

For those unfamiliar with Irene Hannon, her new book “Dark Ambitions” would serve as a great starting point. Having read nearly all of her books, this one proved to be just as action packed and hard to put down. The complex plot keeps the reader on his or her toes. Hannon takes seemingly unrelated characters and weaves their lives together. The way she goes about developing her characters is phenomenal! Her story is told in such a way that the reader has information not yet known by all of the characters; you cannot wait until their eyes are open to what is going on. She keeps you on the edge of your seat trying to anticipate what will happen next. This is definitely a great read!

Review of “Unscripted” by Davis Bunn

So it took me a little bit to realize that “Unscripted” is  the second book I’ve read by Davis Bunn. The first was one I read by him was “The Great Divide”. I am glad I didn’t realize that this is my second book by him when I signed up to read this one because the first one I read by him was not really my favorite and I am not sure I would have been interested in this one no matter how intriguing the story sounded. However, I am not going to let my lack of enjoyment in his other book taint my review of this book. Since all books in theory even by the same author should stand alone unless they’re in a series. So my first thing I would like to say with this book is that it is a little hard to follow everything that is going on. Part of the reason I think it is hard to follow is because to me the book was started at the wrong point in the story. I feel like instead of starting with the main character already in jail maybe he should have started with how he got there. Also it seems to me like two different stories are going on at the same time which is making it feel a little disjointed. However, there is some mystery to the whole story as you’re reading that is helping me want to finish the book. Hopefully all the pieces of the puzzle or puzzles depending on if you think it is somewhat disjointed will come together in the end and make it so the beginning of the book will make more sense in hindsight.

Review of “Christmas in Winter Hill” by Melody Carlson

First let me start with the fact that I love Christmas as well as Christmas books.  I love them so much that I will now read them anytime of the year.  I am also a big fan of not only Melody Carlson, but her Christmas books are some of my favorites.  I am pretty sure that I have read all of her Christmas books and I have even read some of her other fiction novels.  She is an excellent author.  And on that note, I was really looking forward to reading “Christmas at Winter Hill” and it did not disappoint me at all.  As with her other Christmas books, you find yourself rooting for the main character.  In this book, you are rooting for the main character’s Christmas to finally be a good one which in turn will change her attitude toward Christmas.  Throughout the story, you will be surprised by some twists that you might not have expected to occur.  What are those twists you ask? Well you will just have to read it to find out.  I do believe that you also will not be disappointed that you got this book.
