In this latest installment of Into the West Tina's adventure continues to unfold. This time while checking the fence she is once again drawn to the mysterious canyon that takes her into the past. This book is a wonderful adventure that is like a long kiss good bye it leaves you hungry for more. It is written for young adults but I would recommend this book to anyone who likes, adventures, mysteries,and a little romance with a hunky cowboy.

High Noon by Nora Roberts

High Noon by Nora Roberts

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Have you ever loved someone or something so much that if anything happened to them you would stop at nothing to seek retribution for your loss. That is exactly what this book is about love, loss, and the power they both have over people's lives. I have to say that I loved this book from beginning to end. The best and worst part of this book is that the characters were so real that you didn't want the book to end so, when it did you were left hanging wondering about the well being of all the characters not just those in the last few pages. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes romance, suspense, and a good mystery.

Bleachers By John Grisham
Sometimes a sports team is the back bone and life blood of a whole town. In this book
a infamous coach is dieing. His death has brought everyone back to their hometown to honor him. In the process they lay to rest more then just a great man.
They learn to accept the power of a man to motivate a group of people throughout their entire lives not just when they are on the field.
This book makes you realize that it is more than a sport it is a state of mind. I would recommend this book to anyone who has had a mentor not just those who like football.

True Believer by Nicholas Sparks

True Believer by Nicholas Sparks

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


On a routine investigation of a weird phenomenon a scientific research writer finds more then he bargains for in the small town of Boon Creek. This book is all about love loss and the power of a community to look out for one of their own. I loved the sentiment of this book that true love can not be put in a box and studied scientifically. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes romance and the mysteries of small towns.

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If I were to describe this book in the manor of the book itself I would think that its color would be blue. Not just any blue mind you but the pure blue of the sky after a rainstorm. The blue that is so beautiful it makes you happy and sad at the same time. This book chronicles the life of a child in Nazi Germany during WWII. It is Schindler's List and the Diary of Ann Frank rolled into one. This story is narrated by the soul collector and this unusual view point gives this book a unique twist on reality that is both creepy and compelling at the same time. I laughed and cried until my sides hurt. I think that this book is wonderful and a must read. For anyone who likes drama, or historical fiction or an all around good book. It is going on my to read again list!

Witch Hunt by Devin O'Branagan

Witch Hunt by Devin O'Branagan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


In this book you live and suffer with several generations of the Hawthorne family, as they battle with persecution, exile and execution, that ends in a modern day massacre. This travesty is created and led by one man who has the power to motivate the masses to condemn what they didn't understand. It really makes you wonder how far people will truly go to prove that their religion is the best.



Since the very beginning of time, the human race has tried to interpret, enforce and follow Gods law. They have instead, distorted, abused, and, disobeyed it for their own spiritual gain. This horrible reality has not improved at all over the centuries even though we claim to be more civilized. For some reason people are driven to exterminate anything that they don't understand in the name of their religion even if innocent lives are harmed in the process. This book reminds us that faith can be a very powerful thing for both good and evil and how you use that faith defines you as a person.

I think that this book is well worth the read and I would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy, romance, and historical fiction.

I received this Pre-reader copy from the author.

No Permanent Scars By Michael Hemery

No Permanent Scars by Michael Hemery

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Did you ever wonder when you fell off your bike and scraped your knee as a kid if it would leave a scar? This book is all about the scars that we acquire throughout life both emotional and physical. I loved the sentiment in this book but I did not like the way it was put together. I enjoyed the lazy humor but it switched between childhood and adult memories causing it to loose some of the flow. I would however recommend this book to anyone who is alive and is not offended by swear words.

The Midnight Club by James Patterson

The Midnight Club by James Patterson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


There are two types of law the street law and the the law enforced by cops like John Stefanovitch this book is all about the battle of the these two laws. Just when you think one or the other is getting a head in the game something happens that turns it all around. Even though this is not one of James Patterson's best novels it is still a good solid read with a good feeling ending. I would still recommend this book to anyone who likes crime dramas.

Odd Hours By Dean Koontz

Odd Hours by Dean Koontz

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


The saga of Odd Thomas continues in this compelling novel that takes Odd to the Ocean to save a young pregnant women. Along the way he befriends an old actor, a scared lady and a woman who like himself feels the twinge to help people. With a little help from a Ghost dog and Frank Sinatra, Odd is in a race to stop a group of bad men that are intent on making a quick buck no matter how many lives are lost as a result. I would have to say that Dean Koontz really knows this character every page comes alive in your hands and you can't help but stroking each page to move faster to find out what happens next. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes, humor, fantasy, horror, and a good old fashion book that you want to read over and over.


On a side note I hate that authors have to be labeled. Dean Koontz is labeled horror but I would not really classify Odd Thomas Horror and a lot of people are not reading it because they think that it is horror. Granted there is death in there shooting and stabbings but it is not really gory or over the top. The Odd Thomas series is very funny. If you don't like Horror then don't read Intensity but if you like a good amount of humor and can stand a few shootings then Odd Thomas is for you.
