April Quick Shot Reviews




The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks
I listened to this on audio book. I think I prefer the movie version better. (Did I just say that?!!?) The book just seemed to drag and I did not get as much of an emotional punch like I do from the movie.

Prince of Wolves and Blood Rites by Quinn Loftis
Both were audio books. I am really enjoying this series! It is super easy read/listen. Its pretty generic in what is happening but I am fully entertained and can’t wait to see where everything goes for each of the characters.




The Girl Before by JP Delaney
Apparently I went on an audio book binge! This was another good one though. A highly entertaining domestic thriller and the twist at the end left me surprised.






The Taster by VS Alexander
My hubby bought me a three month subscription to Once Upon a Book Club and this was the March Box, April Read. Set with the rise of Hitler the main character finds her way in the service of Hitler as his food taster. This was a unique point of view for this type of story and I thoroughly enjoyed the reading. I also enjoyed the experience with the box! You open a gift as you read the story. You can check out my Instagram for the unboxing photos!

Waking Gods by Sylvain Neuvel
This is another book two and an audio. I cannot say enough how much I love these audio books. It just really brings the narration to life. It is full cast and the voices are just perfect! I cannot wait for Only Human to come out!

Code Black by Philip Donlay
Book two in the series this one was just as much fun as the first. It was another audio book and it kept me at attention to the very end. I cannot wait to continue with this series!



Roomies by Christina Lauren
Another audio and another quick easy read/listen.

Dead Letters edited by Conrad Williams
This was not what I expected. That being said. It also took me forever to get through all the stories. There were a couple stand outs and I mention the authors in my GoodReads page. I was thinking the letters would be more of a focal point then they were.


We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Mgozi Adiche
This is about 50 pages and punches you in the face. I highly recommend this book for everyone. Young girls especially. Young boys, men should read this too.

Full Moon Rising by Keri Author
Another in the series, I am still liking it. It is a supernatural erotic version of the Stephanie Plum series. I am listening to these on audio and they go quickly and are entertaining.

Bakuman Vol 10.
I am still thoroughly enjoying this series!
