GOOD DAY EVERYONE

 Good day everyone, it has been a long 2 weeks on  the farm we are finally over the cold crud that wouldn't leave. So we are going to finally get this blog post done. Today we have for you CREPE CAPERS  book 46 in the HAVEN HOLLOW series by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain 


                          BOOK BLURB



 If there’s one thing I’ve learned as Haven Hollow’s High Witch, it’s this: when life gets weird, it usually means someone cursed something.

And lately? Things are getting very weird.

It started with a simple package delivered to my shop, Wanda’s Witchery. Inside were two rings—one for me and one for my cousin Astrid. I thought they were a sweet surprise.

Turns out they were a curse.

Now Astrid has her humanity back… and I’ve been turned into the very thing I’ve spent my life fighting.

A vampire.

No heartbeat. No magic. And an overwhelming craving for blood that I’m trying very hard not to indulge—especially when it comes to my annoyingly attractive vampire husband, Lorcan.

But becoming undead is only the beginning of my problems.

Someone hired private investigators to spy on me. The vampire establishment is starting to question whether my “turning” was real. And if they discover the truth about the lie that kept me alive, they won’t just be angry.

They’ll kill me.

As if that weren’t enough, the cursed rings may be connected to a terrifying entity using my cousin as a pawn—a creature powerful enough to rewrite magic itself.

Which means my sudden transformation might not be an accident.

It might be a move in someone else’s game.

Now I have to figure out who’s behind the curse, why they targeted us, and how to survive vampire politics without losing the town—and the life—I love.

Because I may be undead now…

…but I’m still Wanda Depraysie.

And if someone thinks turning me into a vampire is going to stop me from solving this mystery, they clearly don’t know witches very well.


                          MY REVIEW 

 Welcome back to the Hollow, Wanda is going about her business  playing at being a vampire and being High Witch of the Scapegoat coven. Until the evening she goes to work and gets a surprise in the mail a set of mysterious rings for her and Astrid , With out thinking both Wanda and Astrid slip the rings on and poof things change . Astrid who was changed by a vampire is now healthy and breathing. Wanda on the other hand has been turned into a vampire with no reach of her witch power. There is someone or something out there wanting to prove that Wanda isn't a real vampire and now that she is one. Things are about to get a little chaotic and a little bloody. Will they be able to figure out what happened and keep two vampires off their back about Wanda . Lorcan is working over time to figure it out and keep his nemesis in check.  Will the survive the night and will Wanda do what she is destined to do . 

  The gang is back and well funnier than ever . Wanda is one of those characters that you love and you love to hate her sometimes .She is brainy and walks softly and carries a really big magical stick. But we also get to see her venerable and scared as she works on being a vampire and trying to find her power again . Lorcan is her trusted sidekick and her husband, and man you really get to know him better in this book. We find out who is after them and it sets them up for an epic fight . Poppy and the rest of the gang are back also to help figure out how to help her get back to her true self. Each character is like coming home and settling down with some really good friends . 

This is a hilarious book and you can't stop laughing all the way through the book. Each character is well written and very complex. You love them and their faults .These authors have really made an epic story, the hollow have changed and become its own character through out the books. I would strongly suggest you read the other books in the series but if you wanted to you could read this book as a stand alone. Check out this series you will love it.

GOOD MORNING PEEPS

  Well it was spring outside but today I woke up to snow falling on the farm. I like the moisture but I donot like the white stuff . It is a good day to stay indoors and read some good books . Today I have for you book 3 in the Villians of Kassel . FEAST OF THE FALLEN by Lydia Miceals . 


                             BOOK BLURB



             They call it a game. But games have rules, and mine were written in blood.

I was starving when I applied to The Feast of the Fallen—a twisted hunt where the world’s most elite billionaires pay millions to chase women like me through a gilded labyrinth until dawn.

One million dollars just to play. Two million if I'm caught.

I told myself I'd run, hide, and take the money–unharmed–so I could finally escape the poverty that's been choking me my entire life.

But I didn't count on him.

Jack Thorne, the phantom host, who built an empire from ash and blood, watched from the shadows while men hunted like monsters in a storm of his own creation. But when a reckless guest breaks his rules and goes too far, Jack steps out of the darkness, revealing himself as the most dangerous player of all–one who looks like a savior but will stop at nothing for revenge.

Jack doesn't negotiate with giants. He watches them gorge themselves on power until their true nature spills out. Then he brings the axe.

                          MY REVIEW 
 Daisy is doing everything to survive , she has been working the same job since her mother and her were working together. Then her mother dies and she is stuck feeling so alone . Until the day she is presented a way of getting out of her predicament . One night of being hunted by billionaires who want to dominate her and take her. She is trying to figure everything out and just wants to get through the night. Then Jack Thorne walks in , the phantom host of this night . He is powerful and honestly the most cunning . When Daisy breaks the rules it is time for him to step in and deal with her but will he be able to let the delicate flower go after he has her in his life.

   This is a very intense book Daisy and Jack have been through sooooo much. Daisy is as innocent as innocent can get . She is sweet and kind but is also really naive when it comes to the ways of the world . Underneath it all though she is a fighter and has a spine of steel when it comes to protecting herself . Jack is well he has had such a hard life , he was sold to a the age of 6 to a man with money . He was tortured and abused for most of his life . He only knew pain for the longest time until he finally gets away and finds the caring and love with an older woman of the night . Then Jack finally knows what it means to have a caring person to lean on. As they have grown up you see the scars of their past deeply embedded into their souls . Such emotional characters that you will love to hate . 

  This is one of  those books where honestly people can tell you about but you really aren't ready for the emotions that will bubble up as you read.  The characters are so well written and complex . You know you will love them and want to wrap them up in warm blankets and give them hot chocolate and tell them that everything will be ok. The author really does write some twisted stories . She puts her characters into situations that will break most people . I have actually shed a few tears through out this book. This is one of those books that will have you up all night and have you thinking about why it happened all night long . This can be read as a stand alone but be prepared for the triggers that might not bring up some feelings .

GOOD ATERNOON PEEPS

   WOOHOOOO this is the last book of my reader round up. Today I have book 6 in the Temporal Armistice series . THE PACIFIST'S DOOM by Matthew S Cox .


                             BOOK BLURB



 A desperate stranger dumping a dangerous magical weapon in Brooklyn’s lap isn’t the end of the world—it’s merely going to kill every living thing on the planet.

The world itself will be just fine.

This isn’t the kind of apocalypse she signed up for. Her idea of saving the world is much less do nothing at all. If she doesn’t destroy it, that counts as saving it, right? Alas, the ancient artifact isn’t very patient. The clock is ticking and it’s going to make her miss some serious couch time.

Problem is, the doomsday device doesn’t want to be stopped. It keeps slipping away from her. Even if she does manage to get her hands on it, the Philadelphia Fire Department hasn’t exactly trained her how to disarm ancient magical weapons of mass destruction. She’s going to have to improvise. What could possibly go wrong?

                         MY REVIEW 
  Brooklyn is at again, she is hanging out with Pandora and honestly really not doing anything. Until the day a stranger dumps a magical orb that is going to destroy every living thing. The clock is ticking and the orb is not taking any names . It keeps slipping away from her cause it doesn't want to be stopped and if she does get it in her hands she doesn't really know how to stop it. So improvising it is , I mean what could go wrong. 

    Brooklynn is proving to be such a fun read. She is the best of both worlds a couch potato who would love just having lazy days at home to the firefighter helping out fight the fires that are springing up around Philli. She even finds a baby dragon that was setting fires in a restaurant. . Pandora is a great combination of Brooklyn. She is sassy and sweet and always trying not to get into trouble . They both love their friends with a passion. And really don't want to start the end of the world . We also get to see more of Brooklyn's mom and dad in this one. This is a family that you want to read and get to know. 
  
  This is such a fun read , Brooklynn and the gang are back and stronger and funnier than ever. This author has such a great grasp on each character that makes them complex . The worlds he paints are so much fun and you get sucked in so fast . I mean we have magical beings popping up all over Philadelphia like babe dragons in the ovens and so many more.. This whole series will have you laughing and turning pages all night . Check it out you will love this series .
