Review: Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon (Audible Edition)

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon (Audible Edition)

I’ve seen this book off and on my social media the last couple of months but I wasn’t entirely sure about it. I mean I grew up playing The Oregon Trail game on the computer (best game ever!) and since I live in Oregon I have studies the Oregon Trail extensively and frontier culture especially for my masters.

But for whatever reason this book just didn’t grab me right away when it came out. But after a few dud books I really wanted to read some thing that I was sure would catch my interest and feel different.

I decided to bite the bullet and download the Audible edition as something to listen to while I ran errands. Continue reading “Review: Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon (Audible Edition)” →

Review: The Last Mrs. Summers (Her Royal Spyness #14) by Rhys Bowen

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: The Last Mrs. Summers (Her Royal Spyness #14) by Rhys Bowen

I have been a long time Rhys Bowen fan and I have been trying to get caught up on the Royal Spyness series for the last year.

I have been reading the later mysteries out of order but going back and trying to read the earlier ones so I can have a better appreciation for the characters and their back stories.

I love Georgie and all the quirky characters in this series and when I saw another book was coming out I couldn’t wait to check it out even though I wasn’t entirely caught up with the series over all. Continue reading “Review: The Last Mrs. Summers (Her Royal Spyness #14) by Rhys Bowen” →

Review: Paris Never Leaves You by Ellen Feldman

by The Lit BitchLeave a Comment on Review: Paris Never Leaves You by Ellen Feldman

It’s so hard for me to turn down a story set in Paris. There’s a reason that Paris is called the city of romance and I simply love it and can hardly pass it up when a book comes around set in Paris, especially war time Paris.

This one sounded so incredibly promising that saying yes to it was easy. I love duel timeline narratives and this one sounded like it would be such a fun escape read.

This is a new to me author but she has written a few other books that I had heard of and I was eager to pick this one up and start reading. Continue reading “Review: Paris Never Leaves You by Ellen Feldman” →

Review: The First to Lie by Hank Phillippi Ryan

by The Lit BitchLeave a Comment on Review: The First to Lie by Hank Phillippi Ryan

I only just discovered Hank P Ryan last year when I read, The Murder List. I absolutely loved The Murder List and couldn’t wait to read more by this incredible author!

Not only is she a wonderful writer but she is also a sweet, thoughtful, and kind person! I have loved getting to know her over this year and I was even more excited to read this book when it came up for review.

I had to restrain myself when this book arrived. I was so tempted to toss aside whatever I was reading at that time and start this one instead but I held off until it was closer to the time to post my review. Continue reading “Review: The First to Lie by Hank Phillippi Ryan” →

Review: The Enforcer Enigma (San Andreas Shifters #3) by Gail Carriger

by The Lit BitchLeave a Comment on Review: The Enforcer Enigma (San Andreas Shifters #3) by Gail Carriger

Last month I had the pleasure of reading one Gail Carriger’s latest books and this month I was able to squeeze this one in.

As you might recall, I love her books because her world building is so rich and detailed with so many fun characters that stand out and that I want to read about!

This series has been a fun read and focuses on shifters and werewolves which normally aren’t really my fav but I love Carriger and she never disappoints! Continue reading “Review: The Enforcer Enigma (San Andreas Shifters #3) by Gail Carriger” →
