*The Heart of Betrayal* (Remnant Chronicles #2) by Mary Pearson

Oh. My. Venda.

If you aren't reading the Remnant Chronicles, then what on earth are you reading?? This is absolutely incredible. After you oogle over this gorgeous cover, read my non-spoiler review below.

Click to visit the Remnant Chronicles page on Goodreads!

1. Characters: New faces appear on the scene in this second installment, and I don't even have words to... I can't even type right now. I love everyone. The love interest is spectacular. I adore the main character, Lia. The villain is well-crafted and complex (but also simple?). The new side characters have incredible development. I absolutely love these characters.

2. Story: I've already said "I love" too many times in this review already, but I love everything here. In addition to the characters, the story continues to drive at a perfect pace. Slow enough to develop new characters and offer background info when necessary, but quick enough to keep things happening so that you're always turning the pages to find out what's coming next.

3. Author's Writing Style: Mary E. Pearson, you are an exceptional world-builder and story-teller. Everything just flows! It's so refreshing!! I want more. more. more.

4. Overall Rating: 5 Easy Stars. I don't even have to think about it. It's 5 stars. Just like with the first book, Kiss of Deception, I have literally zero complaints about this book. Characters, story, cover art (because let's face it- that's important)... everything is perfection. It's like this series has been written just for me.

Monday Madness!

Ahoy there! 💦 (No idea why I felt like greeting you that way... But I did.) I just had to gush on two particular things today: 1. My Shelfie 2. My Shop Item #1 on the agenda: The shelfie I posted yesterday! Click the image to visit my bookstagram! I gotta admit.. I really  like the way my shelves look right now. Unfortunately, in order to showcase some of my favorite covers of the moment, I had to hide about half of my books behind  other books. Which is kind of fun because next time I rearrange my bookcase and take them all out, I will have undoubtedly forgotten about many of them and it'll be like re-discovering lost treasure. 😂However, it also means I simple don't get to enjoy the visibility of about half my books. 😔 Sad times. At this point, nearly every single little cubby has books behind books. So, I mean, I can't just keep doing that forever. Eventually, I will need to get a new bookshelf to add to my bookcase. The problem is, I really want a whi...

BOOK TOUR! The Weaver's Daughter by Sarah E. Ladd

Huge thank-you to TLC Book Tours for sending me a copy of The Weaver's Daughter by Sarah E. Ladd. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but I've read other works by Ms. Ladd, and she has a wonderful talent! I love her characters! Synopsis: Kate's loyalties bind her to the past. Henry's loyalties compel him to strive for a better future. In a landscape torn between tradition and vision, can two souls find the strength to overcome their preconceptions? Loyalty has been at the heart of the Dearborne family for as long as Kate can remember, but a war is brewing in their small village, one that has the power to rip families asunder--including her own. As misguided actions are brought to light, she learns how deep her father's pride and bitterness run, and she begins to wonder if her loyalty is well-placed. Henry Stockton, heir to the Stockton fortune, returns home from three years at war seeking refuge from his haunting memories. Determined to bury the pa...

Zach Bannister was her husband's best friend and is the person she blames for his death. But right now, he seems her only hope for protecting her son.
