Book Dump #44-51
May. 27th, 2022 09:23 amThings have been so hectic, I didn't realize I hadn't updated my book list. I haven't had as much time for reading lately either, but things are slowing down a bit now.
I squeezed one more series out of my free unlimited subscription with The Four Horsemen Series by LJ Swallow. (I got them as two sets, books 1-4 and books 5-7, so I'm only counting them as two books)
( Legacy )
( Bound )
( Hunted )
( Guardians )
( Chaos )
( Descent )
( Reckoning )
I enjoyed this take on the Four Horsemen, the twist of making them defenders *against* the Apocalypse instead of causing it was interesting.
The very last book I read on unlimited was ( Her Villains by Jade Presley )
A friend recommended this to me and I enjoyed it, though when I went to look up the summary, the first comment spoiled it a bit for me. So if you want to read it, don't read reviews. This is book one of two, but when I last checked, book two wasn't available yet. I think it will be soon.
With my free trial over, I dug through my Kindle and found Sleeping Beauty No More by Aisha Urooj. It's book 2 of 3, but I didn't feel I missed anything coming in as its a retelling of the Disney tale. I felt it had some elements of Tangled as well. I enjoyed the story, its another that gives Aurora more control over her own fate/story. There were some areas that seemed to move too quickly, but overall, is a good story.
After that, I moved on to some mystery/thriller with ( Played to Death by BV Lawson )
This is book one in an on-going series, but they're all different stories, just with the same MC. I enjoyed the story and the MC was interesting, I would definitely read more in this series. There were some twists and turns and normal small town drama all draws you into the story.
( The Bellhop Only Stalks Once by Cat Hickey ) This was not at all what I expected. It was a fun read that kept up the mystery vibe without going dark and sinister. There were some intesnse/suspenseful spots, but was overall a light story.
( Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper by JL Brayn )
This was a fun read! Very Ghostbusters feel. I enjoyed that it takes place in Savannah, it's always interesting to me to read something set in a location I'm familiar with. This is also another book one of an on-going series with the same MC.
I just finished ( Identical Death by Alexa Padget & JJ Cagney ) I was unaware that this was a prequel novella when I read it. It left me feeling disappointed. The story was really just getting started when it ended.
