Black Hotel - Renee Wakefield

Image
   This week I finished Black Hotel by Renee Wakefield. I have very conflicted feelings over this book for a couple reasons. First, I thought that the first part of the book was fantastic. It was written so well and it flowed wonderfully, until around chapter 16 - that's when the constant typos began to infiltrate the story. For those of you who have been following this Blog, you are already well aware that significant amounts of typos completely ruin the flow of a story for me. That stayed true with this book and it's such a shame, because the underlying story was awesome, it kind of reminded me of the movie 1408, and I love that movie!    Second, the story took a turn somewhere around the middle of the book, and again near the ending chapters. Those twists and turns threw me off just a little bit, but it all somehow fit together into one fantastic story.    The only thing I would recommend for this author in the future - is for her to get a proofreader...

Welcome To Moonlight Harbor - Sheila Roberts

   Welcome To Moonlight Harbor written by Sheila Roberts was simply put - adorable. It was light and airy, it flowed nicely, and had a cute little undertone about it. It was a very easy read and i flew through it in just a couple nights. Its an adult novel with adult issues, but the story is written gracefully enough that i feel even a mature teenager would enjoy it. This story is filled with hopeful characters and second chances are always a possibility. It was great to see a "To Do" list at the beginning of each chapter, and I also absolutely loved the recipes at the end of the story. Since i won my copy off a Goodreads contest, and i had a before published proof, there may be some small changes between my copy and the published copy.    This is Jenna Jones' story. Jenna is newly divorced from a complete scumbag artist that left her and her 14 year old daughter, Sabrina. Jenna is forced to pay him spousal support even though she has their daughter to take car...

Gypsy's Quest (A Time Travel Romance - Book 1) - Nikki Broadwell

   Gypsy's Quest (A Time Travel Romance - Book 1) Written by Nikki Broadwell took me about a month to read. It didn't take me that long because it was difficult. It took me that long because i was kind of bored while reading it. It was supposed to be a Time Travel Romance story, which it was only a little bit. Most of the story flowed around the main characters child and finding him. I would characterize this story as Adult Fiction, but be prepared to be thrown into random worlds for random reasons, not all of which make sense. Some of the story i feel was just put in as a page filler. It didn't flow like i expected it to, but i feel like the ideas the author had while putting this story together - you can tell it was well thought out it just didn't articulate onto the page that way.    Now, as an aspiring writer, it is not in my nature to give a nasty review since i wouldn't want that if someone didn't like my book. I will however be honest in my review and it...
