I have now finished my third reading of The Gateway Chronicles and I loved it just as much as the first time I read it. I kind of dreaded reading The Bone Whistle partly because it would mean the end of the series. But I also dreaded the deterioration of the relationship between Darcy and her family.

When the Lights Go Out by @MaryKubica ~ a @HarlequinBooks Review
by Susan Roberts
How it begins...
Prologue
The city surrounds me. A panorama. With arms outstretched, I can't help but spin, taking it all in. Enjoying the view, knowing fully well this may be the last thing my eyes ever see.

Save the Date by Morgan Matson ~ an @Audible_com Review
by Donna Huber
After reading Never Let Me Go and The Woodcutter, I wanted some light frivolity and the young adult novel Save the Date seemed just the right book. And indeed it was the fun read (er...listen) that I was looking for.

Trust Me by Earl Javorsky ~ a Review
by MK French
Jeff Fenner had an up and down kind of career, but it's come crashing to a halt. Police are investigating him, he owes money to the wrong people, and he doesn't have much of a future. His sister commits suicide, but that isn't like her at all. It leads him to try to investigate the death, and he meets Ron Pool, the reporter that covered his sister's death and thinks others might be related. In addition, there is also the relatively new member Holly Barnes. She's troubled and involved in the same self-help group that seems implicated in a string of suicides eerily like his sister's. The worst part? Holly seems to be next.

Broken Branches by Ben Ellis ~ a Review
by Donna Huber
Broken Branches a page-turner of a dystopian that is focused on eugenics. I loved the main characters of Tom, Grace, and Charlie. Set in England, it is believable that genetic evidence of parentage would be required given their long history with peerage and class. The science is a little less believable. Overall, I enjoyed the book.

2 Excellent Debut Novels You Must Read
by Susan Roberts
Today I have reviews for you of a debut novel by Laura Holtz and the first historical fiction novel by Lauren Speeth. Both of them were excellent and it was difficult to believe that these were new paths for both authors.
