The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After – Book Review Choosing this book for review, I was only first aware of its author, Julia Quinn, and not that it was a compilation of short tales about the Bridgerton family. I put off reading it because I thought it was a book, but upon further inspection realized it…
Reading the book written by Lionel Dahmer, the father of notorious serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, is like asking, “Why on earth would you read that?” My best friend asked me that, so I guess I should tell you what I am thinking. I can’t imagine why I would want to read this. Why, out of…

The Forbidden Note Book Review With the exception of driving and sleeping, which require both hands, I read the first three novels in a row with great enthusiasm.

The Broken Note Book Review The third book The Broken Note by Nelia Alarcon feels a little underwhelming. Dutch Cross has changed his mind and now wants Cadence on his side rather than making her life miserable. Despite his efforts to make her life easier, she continues to reject him and even enlists his father’s…
The sequel, The Ruthless Note, lives up to the high standards set by the previous film. Nelia Alarcon is skilled at creating tension and teasing the reader with hints, sometimes using Jinx. Both Cadey and Dutch’s backstories are essential reading for me. It will be agonizing to have to wait for the conclusion, but I…
In the Darkest Note novel, by Nelia Alarcon, as the lead vocalist of the Kings, Dutch Cross (H) is used to getting his way with the help of his brothers Finn and Zane. His best friend can’t return to Redwood Prep now that new student Cadence Cooper (h) has taken the final available slot, so…
