Review : Addicted - Book #1 Dark Road Series - Krys Fenner - 2014
I had grabbed this book due
to the cover as it seemed quite a dark and edgy book and the cover is pretty
amazing. As I read the book we meet Bella who seems to be stalked by an anonymous person who loves leaving her gifts; she also has captured the attention of
three schoolmates - David, Peter, and Jeremiah. When I read this, I often laugh as seriously how realistic is it to
go from someone who has never had a boyfriend in her seventeen almost eighteen
years of life and then all of a sudden have multiple guys interested in her and
all wanting her at once. Addicted was a complicated read as I found myself in
parts getting confused as apparently, a
tragedy happened to her in church when she was little with a kid beating her up
bad when she offered to help and said something nice to him. Like where were the adults? Now older, she gets jumped in the alley
and brutally raped, and then her life
starts to go downhill as she discovers people are after her and want her to
themselves and those she loves dead. We also learned briefly that she was adopted and wonder if it has anything to do
with her birth parents. I have to admit I found this book a bit too much over
the place for me and then when I finished as the book ends on a cliffhanger. I started to read the preview for the next
book Damaged - only to discover as it sounded familiar that I had already read
Book #2 a couple of years ago in September 2015 which then led me to discover
that Addicted is a reprint of Book #1 which was originally called Destroyed in
2014.
It's time for serial killer time to strike again with Sean Slater's new Detective Jacob Striker novel out titled with the same name as a popular children's game "Snakes and Ladders". Review: Snakes and Ladders - Detective Jacob Striker Book #2 - Sean Slater - March 2012 It's amazing how much a cover can get you to read a book and then you discover, well I actually like this author as I picked up Sean Slater's first book "The Survivor" due to the fact that the cover had a hockey mask and reminded me of Friday the 13th and I really enjoyed the novel as well as the fact it was a school shooting which for some reason I enjoy reading about as it fascinates me ( just to add - I'm not pyschotic LOL) . When I discovered Sean Slater had a new one coming out, I picked it up and was again fascinated and drawn in as he had chosen another angle and field that I am interested in probably due to the fact that my dad works in that industry of mental health...
A Love Letter from Emily White to her Readers: It's a month for love and there's nothing I love more about the publishing life than meeting new readers. That's why, a few months ago, I made a pretty huge announcement. I doubt it had any far-reaching effects. And I seriously doubt many people even heard about it. But I want everyone to know: After doing ALL the things and checking off ALL the lists, I never really felt like I'd accomplished anything in my career. I'd grown up dreaming about signing a contract with a publishing company, and I did that. But after that was done, I dreamt about the next contract, and having my books read around the world, and maybe hitting a bestseller list. And I did all that. But still not so much happiness. I had moments of happiness. Of absolute joy, even. And it hit me last November that those moments came when I was meeting new readers or getting emails from them. They came in certain minutes of the day when a...

The To-Do List for a Happy Life In today’s hectic world, we are consumed with to-do lists that have the ability to keep us so busy that on some days it feels impossible to even find the time to brush our teeth, let alone stop for a breath. And when life gets that crazy, we often forget about doing things that make life really worth living.
