Warriors of Darkness Book Review

This book was so very good. I loved the characters of Deryn and Alejandro. i found myself unwilling to put the book down once I started it, I read the whole book in one sitting. Action packed, sexy and incredibly well written Roth has done it again. I found the whole cast of characters to be very interesting, I would love to learn more about the supporting characters. This love story was rich and complex. Despite being natural enemies Alejandro and Deryn couldn't resist each other. Their passion was fierce and they were going to fight to be together despite the odds against them, even against the enemies that they couldn't see. Deryn and Alejandro's lives were more entwined then they could ever know, their connection going back to before her birth. They had a love that was meant to be and this was a awesome story.

If an Elephant Went to School Book Review

 http://www.examiner.com/review/if-an-elephant-went-to-school-book-review?cid=db_articles

"If an Elephant went to School" by Ellen Fischer and illustrated by Laura Wood is a thoughtful story about animals and how they conduct themselves in school. With beautiful and vibrant illustrations Fischer weaves a cute story about how animals would behave if they went to school. Animals wouldn't react the way humans would because they are unable to, so instead of writing, counting, and reading they would learn to do things that are important in their lives. This awesomely written book grasps your attention from the very first page. It offers children the opportunity to really think about the animals mentioned and their characteristics. Children will have to be metacognitive throughout the whole reading of this book, constantly questioning and thinking about classroom and animal behaviors, and predicting what will come next in the story.

I find this book to be fun and educational, as the children read they will be learning about the qualities of different animals, like elephants, skunks, and even eels. Each page offers a whimsical and informative look into the question of these animals going to school. If the gorgeous illustrations doesn't make you want to pick this book up the undeniably witty and smart words will. Early childhood students will thoroughly enjoy this story and I think it will be a favorite read-aloud. This book also would be a great accompaniment to themes on animals. I would use this book as a model for the children to create stories in the same style, this would be a fun activity which can culminate in a trip to the zoo where the kids can see these animals up close and personal. I would highly recommend this story for the early childhood age group, I think it will quickly become a new favorite. This book will be available on August 11th.

Pisces Phenomenon Book Review

Sexy, action packed, and original, "Pisces Phenomenon" is a winner. Roth has done it again, she gets better and better with each book of hers I read and this book does not disappoint. This story has everything I want in a paranormal romance, I didn't want to stop reading, a yummy male hero and a feisty heroine that are combustible together. I look forward to reading more of the Zodiac Gatekeepers series.

Mating Behavior Book Review

This is a great story about unrequited love, friendship, and secrets. Alan and Katie were best friends whose feelings for each other were as great as the secrets they kept. Alan a wolf shifter is forbidden to tel his secret to anyone even his closest friend Katie who just so happens to be a witch. Katie is also forbidden to tell anyone she's a witch. But what these two don't realize is the truth always comes to light even when we don't want it to. That wasn't so bad for Alan and Katie who struggled to resist their feelings for each other. It was a great story, I wish their was more.

Crazy For You Book Review

This was a great book. Not only was it incredibly well written, it was sexy, fun, and heart wrenching. I was engrossed into Meredith and Landry from the beginning. Quirky and eccentric Meredith is misunderstood, in her small town she is used to be considered weird. Now with her back home she is looking for a fresh start and to stay away from overbearing men, that is until she meets Landry. Landry not only gets her kind of crazy but he makes her feel like never before, now if he can get over his being off of women. Through many obstacles that become stumbling blocks in their way Meredith and Landry can't fight be crazy for each other, can love really conquer all or will circumstances prevail. Two thumbs up for Kennedy Kovit.
