Review: Falling Like Snowflakes by Denise Hunter

5 Stars!

Denise Hunter is fast becoming one of my favorite authors, I loved her entire Chapel Springs series, and this first book in her new Summer Harbor series most definitely did not disappoint! One of the things that I loved the most about this book was the suspense, I was not expecting that but it was awesome and just might make this my favorite of her books! The characters were great, I loved Eden, her son Micah, Beau and his brothers as well as Aunt Trudy. Beau was definitely a great hero though I admit there were times I felt very frustrated with him, but overall I liked him a lot. I also loved that Beau's cousin Abby (from Married Til Monday) appeared in this book, it was really nice to get updated on her and Ryan's life, and it came in very handy that she just happened to be a private investigator! :) 

I don't really what else to say without accidentally giving something away but I absolutely loved this book and highly recommend to all fans of Christian contemporary romance with a thread of suspense! 

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher through the BookLook bloggers review program in exchange for my honest review, which I have done. All thoughts and opinions are one hundred percent my own.

Tackle Your TBR Seasons Challenge!

Your challenge, if you choose to accept it is to find one book with each of the seasons in each title – not A Man for All Seasons, but one for Spring, one for Summer, one for Autumn, and one for Winter.

If you can’t find the titles including the season, you can include a book that is specifically set or related to the season.  Obviously Christmas stories relate to winter (or summer, if you’re in the southern hemisphere); The Longest Day is summer.

You can find them on your own shelf (more fun), or in your library, online, or already in your TBR list (even more fun).

The Spine Sentences Challenge.

All you do have to do is look at the book that you are currently reading and tell us the title that runs along the spine. Then you make a sentence out of it! 

I'm reading Quest for Celestia by Steven James

Here is my attempt, it's pretty sad but this was the best I could come up with!

"The most amazingly epic adventure you'll ever experience is the Quest for Celestia"

Review: Doon by Carey Corp and Lorie Langdon

4 Stars!

This was a good fantasy YA novel, which I really enjoyed. I liked how the chapters alternated between best friends Veronica and MacKenna, it was really cool to see both of their perspectives, I found myself relating to both of them in different ways. I think my favorite character was Duncan, he was just so sweet, protective, and completely swoon-worthy, he had a great ability to make me laugh yet he knew when to be serious too (He reminded me greatly of Luca Forelli from The River Of Time) I liked Jamie too, at the end if the book but for most if it he just really annoyed me! I also loved the secondary characters Fergus and Fiona, their sub-plot romance was so sweet too!

Doon was an absolutely beautiful place, I loved all the descriptions if the landscape as well as the castle. I also really appreciated that it was made very clear that the "Magic" was actually God's will triumphing over Satan. There were some things that I would preferred to have not been there but they didn't really affect my overall enjoyment of the story. I think that people who enjoy mainstream YA novels would especially like this book, and I recommend it to all my fellow fans of the River of Time Series by Lisa T. Bergren 

I will probably read the rest of the series at some point!
