I just fin­ished read­ing a bunch of dif­fer­ent short sto­ries that have been lurk­ing in var­i­ous pro­grams on my iTouch. While they are reviewed in sep­a­rate entries on GoodReads, I’m going to try to put the reviews in one blog post. Read on…

Book Review: Shift by Rachel Vincent

Shift (Shifters, #5) Shift by Rachel Vin­cent

My rat­ing: 3 of 5 stars
I’m left with lit­tle to say that won’t be a spoiler other than, “Dan­git, why can’t more authors work in some polyamory instead of using the same old jealousy-​​based plots?” Because I do NOT find that enter­tain­ing or inter­est­ing at ALL! Read on…

Grave Secret (A Harper Connelly Mystery, #4) Grave Secret by Char­laine Harris

My rat­ing: 3 of 5 stars

I doubt that most of Robb’s read­ers will be famil­iar with the other books, as they’re prob­a­bly com­ing from the romance world (cross­ing over from her Nora Roberts titles) instead of the sci­ence fic­tion genre.

Book Review: Night’s Edge

Night's Edge Night’s Edge by Mag­gie Shayne

My rat­ing: 4 of 5 stars
“Dancers in the Dark” by Char­laine Har­ris is set in the same uni­verse as the South­ern Vampire/​Sookie Stack­house sto­ries, but with none of the incred­i­bly annoy­ing char­ac­ters. How refresh­ing! Read on…
