Review: A Jot of Blood by Katherine Bayless
by MK French
Lire Devon is a clairvoyant, able to see the thoughts and memories of anyone she comes into skin-to-skin contact with. She is ostracized by peers for this ability, and her own family had broken apart because of it. Coventry Academy is a refuge of sorts, even so, because she loves learning about magic and the different abilities that others have. This year is even better because she actually made two friends, the werewolf Cal and the occultum (invisible man) Zach.

Review: Written in Blood by Layton Green
by Donna Huber
Written in Blood is not your typical crime procedural, but it lived up to every expectation I have of a Layton Green novel.

Review: The Missing by C.L. Taylor
by Susan Roberts
Every parent's worst nightmare is for their child to go missing - not knowing if they are still alive plus feeling the guilt that somehow it must have been your fault. This novel shows the pain and guilt that Billy's family was feeling six months after he disappeared. There are secrets and anger and mystery but most important was the pain that the mother was feeling while she was still searching for her son and believing that she was seeing him in crowds. Finding her son consumed all of her thoughts and energy and made the family even more splintered.

Excerpt: Through Fire by Sage MacGowan #MondayBlogs

“Cass! What are you doing here?”
Her weak knees managed to get her through the curtain and to Bryan’s side where he lay on a hospital gurney. She took in his bent legs, arm draped across his abdomen, and pale face sporting a sheen of sweat.

Review: Someone to Wed by Mary Balogh #MondayBlogs
by MK French
Wren Heyden was a recluse her entire life because of the birthmark that covered the side of her face. She desperately wants to marry, have love and children, and believes that the only thing she could possibly offer a man is the fortune she inherited. Therefore, she does research into available bachelors near her country estate and offers her bargain: her fortune under contract in exchange for marriage. Her approach is far more mercenary than the marriage mart, even though the ends are the same, which is a bit offputting for Alexander Westcott, who just inherited a title he didn't want and an estate that needs more money than he has available to set to rights. As off-putting as the exchanges are, Alex is still drawn to Wren, and wants to find out more about her.

Review: Picnic at Hanging Rock by Joan Lindsay
by Donna Huber
Have you ever wondered about the real events behind urban legends? The whole time I was reading Picnic at Hanging Rock by Joan Lindsay I kept thinking I'm sure this story is told around campfires to this day.
