Renegades
by Marissa Meyer
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Renegades is a super exciting book about heroes and villains. It follows Nova, who hates the Renegades, and Adrian, who’s one of them but has a big secret vigilante identity. The story is full of action, cool powers, and twists that keep you hooked. I liked how it made you think about what makes someone a hero or a villain. If you like superhero stories with a twist, this book is worth reading.

The Wandering Season

First time reading this author's work and although it was a pleasurable story, it was more like a light summer read to me. The premise is that Veronica found out that she was adopted through a DNA test kit given to her by her sister for Christmas. She suspected as such since her high school years but never spoke of it until now. Her adopted family thought it would be good to visit the countries that she was related to and her father paid for a trip arranged by her sister to Ireland, France Italy and Denmark. There are elements of fantasy throughout which you had to go with, but it was a very predictable story . I will rate it 3 stars, but I think the author could have made the book more interesting by giving more background on the characters and on Veronica's relationship with Jonathan previous to her trip.

Cute and quick read, probably for the young adult audience but sweet love story nonetheless! Rich boy meets poor girl and they fall in love but, like all teenage romance, it’s complicated. I enjoyed this and a welcome

I’m curious as to how much the co-authors add to each Patterson novel.

The Ladies Road Guide To Utter Ruin

This is the first in the series that I read. Usually, I like to read from the beginning, but I was able to enjoy this immensely. I love period books with characters who are feminist and this author described these two sisters well - strong, supporting each other, and not married! Wow! They go around helping others. We need more books like this.

Transcendence

after taking a break from reading over July 4th it took me a while to get into it again. The battle descriptions are becoming a bit tedious.... but I still find the book overall to become more enjoyable. But Arthur, like a 12 year old despite being so called a "King" in the past life started running from battlefront to battlefront, as if the strategic emphasis that he himself had meticulously worded with long strings of boring text were garbage. He left the frontlines to save Tess, then again to save his parents, whom both turned out to not need the saving.

The book was amazing. In the beginning, it was very normal and did not have any interesting things, but as I continued reading, I understood the hype for this book.

A fun, sweet read.

A Fashionably French Murder
by Colleen Cambridge

book cover


I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I've read one of Ms. Cambridge's other books in her other series, The Phyllida Bright mystery series and very much enjoyed it. Although this is the 3rd book in her An American in Paris Mystery and I took all three out from my local library, I started with this one first. I love a ballgown and fashion and knew I'd love this book. I knew of the inclusion of Julia Child as a character and it was so much fun to imagine her cooking and being friends with Tabitha. I watched Julia Child when I was younger and loved to think of her cooking and trying to teach Tabitha how to make crepes, etc. Tabitha lives in Paris with her Grand-pere and his partner, her Oncle Rafe. The "attic" setting where she lives in their home sounds like the perfect little room in Paris. Especially with that private bath. Although I haven't read the other two books yet, it did come out in this book that Tabitha has discovered other bodies - numerous other bodies. She's helped the local inspector with solving the crimes before and helps him solve these. I really enjoyed his constant smirks and sighs at her insistence in helping him. All of the fashions, the mannequins, the Dior history of Chrisitan and his sister, were all written so well. I learned a lot of about Paris history and fashion. I'm eager to start the first book, Mastering the Art of French Murder, next. (from my Goodreads review)
