I've enjoyed each book in this series and always look forward to more. That being said, this one was also so good. It is my least favorite though. It just fell a tad short for me in Taylor's part.
I have read and loved all the books in this series. Each has two stories going on. One based on actual events and one about Taylor or her family or both.

When The World Fell Silent
Donna Jones Alward is a new author for me. Her book is amazing. It's so very touching and emotional. What she has written here is a beautiful story of a tragedy that actually happened in 1917 in Halifax Harbour. In Canada.
A must read..

Another hit from one of my favorite authors. This was definitely an edge of your seat thriller. A who done it that I didn't see coming. I also didn't see the second big twist coming. While I do believe this to be geared more toward young adults I did enjoy it.

Each book in this series holds you your breath and your heart. This one is about mothers. Mothers with newborn babies.
A deranged serial killer is taking these mothers and doing the most heinous things to them before breaking their necks.
FIVE stars.

An absolutely beautiful story. Told from two different timelines and by two different women. Both strong and weak but both in love. Related yet never meet.
Grab this one folks. It's so good.
Five big stars...

All The Colors Of The Dark
A stunningly beautiful story of hope, loss, searching. Youth shattered. What happened in this story is nothing short of horrific but told in a way that you will love the book. It's perfection...

Good but not great. This book didn't wow me like I had hoped it would. It was interesting though and I will look forward to giving this author another try when she writes another book. This was her debut.

How The Light Gets In
This is the sequel to Count The Ways and it's another great read. Very heartfelt and realistic. It will touch your heart just as the first book did.
This one has so much. From 2009 to 2024. So many hopes and dreams.
If you are a fan of Donald Trump you will not like parts of this book. Be warned it's honest.

The Wild Road Home
By the author of The Night of Many Endings and A Light in the Forest, both of which I loved. Melissa Payne has written a story here that is so filled with love and hope. Of dreams and acceptance. Of family and loss. It's such a beautiful and sad story.

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab
This is hands down one of the best books I have ever read. It's a bit different but oh so good. A magical experience for the mind. A love story for the soul. I don't say soul lightly either. I story of hope. A story of “Not forgetting.“ A story about a girl. Then a boy. And the deals they made.

Happiness Falls by Angie Kim
This is a somewhat hard book for me to review. The reason being that I found it infuriatingly aggravating and intensely frustrating in places. That being said it's a great story. Just getting from point A to point B seemed to take forever...

Another wonderful thriller/mystery from Kimberly Belle. She is one of my favorite authors. I always want to read her new books. I know I won't be disappointed. This just might be the best one yet.

I enjoyed this book so much. It gives a great lookout into what Celaena endured before she was sent to the Salt Mines and then to the Glass Palace. The horrors of what happened to Sam. This book has so much going on and will give you lots of the feels.
Full review: https://lsmoore49.blogspot.com/2024/06/the-assassins-blade-by-sarah-j-maas.html
Good but not my favorite. I read this book in one day but was very aggravated in parts by it. It's just ok for me.
I suggest you read it and decide for yourself.
I loved this book. It has more action. More characters. Even a group of witches. I hope they continue in the next books.
My full review is here: https://lsmoore49.blogspot.com/2024/06/heir-of-fire-by-sarah-j-maas.html
This is an outstanding novel. A story that will stick with you for a while. Have you gritting your teeth and holding your breath. It's full of twists and turns and so much more. About abducted girls and what they endure. About one who makes it back and what she goes through. What secrets she has.
What happened to Ellie Black... Read this one.

Crown of Midnight
The second book in this series. Though from the set I bought it shows it as the third. But if you read them in the right or recommended order they are suppose to be even better. So that is what I will be doing. Next will be Heir of Fire then The Assassin's Blade after. Then we will see....

I've read and loved several of this author's books now and would not have believed it. I'm not one to enjoy this genre. Or so I thought. I actually find myself looking forward to reading them. They really take me away from everything. Into a world of magic. Not always good magic but also not bad magic. Just a divergent from the other books I enjoy.

Life, Loss, And Puffins
This is such a good book. I've never been disappointed in a book by this author. Her books leave you feeling so much better. There is always a life lesson in them and many tears on the journey between the pages.
In this book I went all the way to Canada. A trip I'll never forget. In the bitter cold to see the aurora borealis.

After Annie
Can you believe this is my first Anna Quindlen book? I'm shocked. I'm beyond shocked. This book was SO GOOD. Sad yes. It made me shed lots of tears. It also made me laugh a few times and brought out some anger(Bill's mother). This book is a very emotional one for sure. But it's so good.
