Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf unread.  If you are anything like me, you might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks.

If you would like to join in, swing by Carole’s Random Life in Books.

I can’t remember how I got Gem Stone by Dale Mayer, but it was published October 12, 2012, and, after reading it, I wonder why I waited so long to read it.

MY REVIEW

Uh Oh. Gemma Stone is in the wrong place at the wrong time and taking photos, no less. From juvie to a halfway home…

But…they messed with the wrong kids when they messed with Gem and her friends.

I love this motley group and their loyalty to each other. One for all and all for one. These kids took me o n one wild ride right to the very end.

Love the environmental angle slipped in and the photography.

The suspense is different from what I expected, in an awesome way.

The writing riveting and captivated me beginning to end.

The characters are fabulous and I love how the ‘family’ came together.

Touchy subject…foster children.

I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of Gem Stone by Dale Mayer.
