Under the iron fist of Director Amanda Waller, these monsters and maniacs have operated in total secrecy…until now. Batman is on their trail and the Squad's existence isn't something he or the Justice League can tolerate. It must be shut down.

But while the heroes and antiheroes are distracted fighting each other, twisted mastermind Maxwell Lord assembles a nightmarish army of DC's deadliest villains to take out both teams!

Collects JUSTICE LEAGUE VS. SUICIDE SQUAD #1-6, SUICIDE SQUAD #8 backup story, SUICIDE SQUAD #9-10 and JUSTICE LEAGUE #12-13.

                         MY REVIEW 

           This is the first major cross over of two of the biggest action heroes and villains I have seen in the rebirth genre.  This is the one to read, The JUSTICE LEAGUE the best heroes out there and the SUICIDE SQUAD  the best villains out there . When they clash it is EPIC .
     The story is based on when the justice league is captured and in need of help . Enter the SUICIDE Squad to do what they need to do . There are some epic fight scenes between them . I cheered for each of them but when it came to WONDER WOMAN  and HARLEY QUINN. I was at a loss of words . I really wanted both of them to come out on top but alas only one could win but not going to tell you. But when push comes to shove . Can they come together and work as a team to help thwart the evil  Maxwell Lord and his evil minions that he has mind control over . Will they survive and will they win against the evil ones . 
  I have been a Justice league fan for a long time  and I fell in love with the Suicide Squad when they were introduced . So when I  found out they were going to battle in the newest rebirth . I was doing a happy dance . The authors didn't disappoint this girl . Each story was well written and the graphics are awesome . They remind me a bit of old school colours with a punch to bring them up to date . 
   I couldn't put done this  graphic novel down , I know it is a comic but this girl loves all things comic and so wasn't disappointed . Each and every story gave me goose bumps and had me cheering for each and every character I love . I had this novel read in a couple of hours cause I was so hooked . This is a great addition to anyone who loves comics and loves the JUSTICE LEAGUE  or THE SUICIDE SQUAD . You will want this book to add to your collection .

HAPPY WEDNESDAY EVERYONE

  Happy Wednesday all . Today is zombie Wednesday but these zombies have a twist . Let me introduce you all to EMMA'S ROSE the cave by Eric A Shelman


                         BOOK BLURB


      
IN AN ANCIENT CAVE IN ROMANIA . . .

Wealthy philanthropist Arthur Wells, in need of a family getaway with his wife, Joan, and his daughter, Emma, arranges a trip to Romania. His intention is to explore an ancient cave system he read about, located in Constanta, on the Black Sea coast.

The name of the cave, unearthed in 1986, is Pestera Movile. It has been sealed from the light of day for over five-and-a-half million years, preserved beneath more than 20 meters of clay. Yet, despite the toxic environment and the lack of light and oxygen within, life forms thrive - all of them blind and colorless. Many are carnivorous.

Most are found nowhere else on Earth.

In this harsh, chemosynthetic environment, Arthur stumbles across something he hopes will advance medical science. Unbeknownst to his guide, he takes a sample of the strange flower.

Arthur Wells has no way of knowing what Emma's Rose is about to unleash upon the world.

                           MY REVIEW 
        
     Ok I have read almost all of Eric's books and was excited to read his new zombie book . Emma's Rose . I was blown away with the book started out . In a cave in Romania where it has been hidden from the world . With its toxic ecosystem not many people have ventured down there . While on a holiday Arthur and his family decide to head to Constanta on the black sea coast .  After venturing down into the cave he is in awe of the life that is surviving down there . Most of the specimens have never seen the light of day . When stumbles into part of the cave that have never been opened before . He finds a beautiful flower which he decides to take home, hoping that it will bring the cure to cancer or some other deadly disease. But what he inadvertently done is, well not going to tell you, you have to read the book .
      In this series , just like all his series , you will find characters that are relatable to you and you will start to really care for them . In this book it is Arthur , this man was so full of himself at the start of the book . He came off as kind of arrogant and he thought he could do anything . But as his world is falling apart around and his family is dying . You see a change in him you see him become a more humbled man that wants to stop what ever is happening in the end of the world . You also see him toughen up as he is humbled .  The other two relatable characters are Ramona and Harvey . April is another character you will like . She gets tougher and stronger as the story goes on . But the main character the rose is one sinister flower. Trust me after reading this book I am going to look at roses differently from now on .
      This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time . The author has built a different type of zombie that really works and also the new delivery system of the virus makes you never want to get flowers again . Just trust me on this one people .
The book is character driven you will cheer for them and you will laugh with them . Most definitely you will cry for them and with them . I read this book in one sitting, well into the night . I just couldn't put it down , it kept calling me back just to read a couple more pages and 3 chapters later I was like wow .  I so can't wait to find out what happens with these characters . So when is book two coming out , can't be soon enough for this girl . So if you want a good start to a hopefully great new series . Check out EMMA'S ROSE the Cave by Eric A Shelman . I promise you , you will not be disappointed and you will be begging Eric for the second book .

Dare to enter the world of Jessica Aspen…
and discover your imagination.
                  
                         MY REVIEW 

    This is the first book in a brand series from Jessica Aspen . What would you do if you move to a new place and start a new job . Then finding out the man you want as your mate isn't the one you really want . Its his twin brother that gets Serena's blood a boiling and her wolf to sit up and howl repeatedly. Well that's what happens to Serena as she heads to Colorado for her new job as a dream walker . Her boss really hates her and she has a stalker on top of trying to figure out who she should be with.
   The characters in this book are so developed . Serena is a dream walker.  Her wolf comes out in dreams and she doesn't exactly transform into a wolf .  She is a very strong woman who really knows what she wants . But she also has some insecurities about her wolf and will anyone really want her and understand her . Enter Sam and Gabe , wolf shifter twins and enforcers for the pack . Serana shared a passionate kiss with Sam. Sam oozes sexiness and is all alpha man . He is gruff and oh so sexy . The man she though she wanted . Enter Gabe the splitting image of Sam and way so sexy but also sensitive and wants Serena . They all are such great characters with strengths and weakness that will make you want to cry and laugh .
     I have read all of Jessica's books and I sat down and devoured this book in one sitting . The author takes us on a rollercoaster ride of emotions . I laughed and cried and was on the edge of my seat a few times .  This book has it all , a mystery , romance and plenty of action to keep you turning pages well into the night . I can't wait for the next book in the series . This is a series that will keep you up all night and then dreaming of your wolf shifter . So if you are a fan of paranormal romance with an adventure mixed in . Check out this new series and check out WOLF ENFORCER. Add this book to your summer reading list NOW  you will not be disappointed
