Great engrossing read, definitely recommended
The Huntress - Kate Quinn

I loved reading this one! A great blend of action, intrigue and romance complete with a cast of likable characters. Each one with their story to tell and it’s told well. For some background information it would help to read up on the subject of the Night Witches and their exploits during World War II (which is a fascinating subject on its’ own)

 

Of all the stories to read, Nina’s naturally, is the most interesting. She’s a wild child, does her own thing and doesn’t care about norms, conventions, and rules. She does her own thing but joins up with her squad not because of the love of her land and country but because she loves to fly. It’s her passion and it shows. I love reading about Nina because of her free spirited attitude and her drive. It’s what keeps her going.

 

The plot is free flowing and the chapters goes back and forth time-wise, and changes perspective depending on the character. Besides Nina, Jordan’s point of view is also interesting. She’s also got an independent streak in her and it’s nice to see her go on her own path based on her decisions. It’s unheard of back then in the day (we’re talking about 1950’s here) so it’s nice to read.

 

The writing is excellent and it grabs your attention from page one. I rather wish there was a small glossary to see what Nina says in Russian (although I’m sure it’s rather colorful language) but other than that small bit, the characters are engaging, and it’s nice how they all come together in the last third of the book.

 

The Author’s Note is also good for explaining what she’s done historical speaking wise. If you are stickler for history perhaps this isn’t for you - it’s more character and story driven. Still an engrossing read and greatly recommended!

Midsummer Night's Mayhem (A Sister Witches Mystery Book 3)
Midsummer Night's Mayhem (A Sister Witches Mystery Book 3) - Lauren Quick A fast and fun read about a group of sisters who also just so happen to be witches. The stories are fast paced but well written; I read the entire series in just a few days because I just couldn't get enough.

Yule Celebrations are here....
Midwinter Night's Alpha: BBW Witches and Sexy Werewolves (Sexy BBW Pagan Holidays Book 6) - Liv Brywood

I was gifted a copy from Liv Brywood in exchange for an honest review.

I was again quickly sucked into the story, within the first few sentences.... losing myself in the tale, then BAM it was over. I will say that this story was slightly different to the others that I've read in this series, revolving around the couple more than the actual Pagan Holiday... My only wish was that I could have had another 100 or more pages to read. This is book 6 of Liv's "Sexy BBW Pagan Holiday series".

Katelyn is returning to her coven in time for the Yule celebrations, then she's going back to New York as soon as they are complete... Hoping to not run into anyone she once called friend, that includes her once best friend/lover Devin... but things don't always go as planned.

MORE PLEASE Liv, I can't seem to get enough, plus they don't stay long on my kindle app before they are devoured.

Bitter Night - Diana Pharaoh Francis

Overall entertaining, but I found the double POV didn't bring much, and the characters didn't strike me as being particularly of interest. However, the mythology of the world depicted in this book is interesting.
