Book Review: “Transcendence” and giveaway!

Heather — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 20:24:00 +0000

Transcendent is a terrific book full of YA paranormal short stories–these are all clean with no swearing or sex and no extreme violence (though there are one or two that are fantastically creepy.) The stories range from ghosts to spirit guides, to vampires, and so much more. I don’t usually go in for short stories, […]

Book Review: Fall by Jennifer Hurst

Heather — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 20:00:00 +0000

I admit to picking up this book knowing only that it had romance elements, and that the female character was heading a construction crew. (I love to see book where female characters work in non-traditional jobs.) What I got was that and a whole bag of chips. You see, the old two-story school house/church/social hall […]
