Reigntime by S.K. Levy

Dear Sam,

Thank you for sharing this story from inside you with the great wide world! I can't wait to read more!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, friends! Thanks for hitting up my blog again to check out my review of Reigntime by SK Levy. Can I start out by saying I desperately need to pre-order book 2? Yes? Okay. Let's go!

Who else is in love with this cover??

Click to read the full synopsis on Goodreads!

1. Characters: I think the main characters have a really unique dynamic, and I like Lexie- the female protagonist. She's strong and smart. ๐Ÿ’— Her best friend, Jamie, is a great side character, and I hope he's in book 2 more! I also really hope we see more of the mysterious Karmi in the sequel.

2. Setting: This story takes place in Australia which has all sorts of fun implications! The language, the land, even the food mentioned, is all a feast for the reader's imagination (particularly this reader, who has dreamed of traveling to Aus but hasn't made it there yet). The first half of this book is set primarily in a hospital, which definitely gave me the Grey's Anatomy vibes (in a good way). The second half... well I don't want to ruin anything for future readers...๐Ÿ˜‰

3. Author's Writing Style: Sam's style was beautiful. Her descriptions were detailed enough to immerse me in the story but not so much that I wanted to skim over them (we've all read something overly descriptive and know how that can be!). The dialogue for the characters flowed well and helped move the story along at a nice pace. I will definitely read the sequel and would give any of Sam's other future work a shot as well.

4. Overall Rating: 4 Stars! This was an excellent start to what will be a very original series, and it definitely left me wanting more at the end. I recommend it!

5. Similar Reading: This was hard! I could see similarities at various times to other novels/series, but overall it didn't make me say "Oh, this is just like that!" So, it's hard to decide what to recommend after reading this. I think these are a good start, though. Click the covers to visit each respective Goodreads page. Enjoy!

BOOK TOUR!! Steal Away Home by Billy Coffey

It's time!! I am honored to be a part of TLC's book tour for Steal Away Home by Billy Coffey. Published by Thomas Nelson, Steal Away Home is a newly released work of Christian fiction that is told through the eyes of minor league baseball player Owen Cross. As Owen is offered his first big time shot, he reflects back on the journey that led him there. I can truly say several things about this book: The language used and writing style overall is breathtaking. It's poetic. The characters are well-developed and dynamic. The story unfolds in a way that creates tension and mystery. By the end of Steal Away Home , I was dying to see how the flashbacks of Owen's life leading up to the big game would connect to his present state and how far the story would go beyond the game.  Did I mention the cover? ๐Ÿ˜ Take a look again, and click the image below to read the full synopsis on Goodreads! Don't forget to add it to your to-read shelf. Steal Away ...

Monday Madness!

Ahoy there! ๐Ÿ’ฆ (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. ๐Ÿ˜‚However, it also means I simple don't get to enjoy the visibility of about half my books. ๐Ÿ˜” 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...
