BOOK REVIEW MONDAY- AUG 30, 2010.

Hey Gang! I have two books to review this week. So lets start…

Book Title: Gaven 2 by JC Owens

Book Blurb- Gaven learns that being Vlar’s pupil in all things is a mixture of pain and pleasure. He hates his Finnarian teacher...doesn’t he? Yet his body betrays him time and again, especially when he experiences the sexual ecstasy of a Finnarian bite and the giving of his own blood.

There seems to be so much more in their relationship than either of them can understand, so Vlar calls in his father, a Finnarian prince. What he tells them shakes Gaven to his core and he fears he cannot possibly live up to what Vlar wishes of him. Then when they seem to be on the edge of truly discovering each other, a shadow from Gaven’s past comes to shatter it all to pieces.

My rating- 4/ 5

My Thoughts- If you have not read Gaven. The first book- do so before you read the second. Trust me… you won’t get it otherwise.

I am so pleased with how the author wrote this book.

So many times the sequel to the book doesn't measure up and makes you regret reading it. Not so with Gaven 2.

I had been a great fan of Gaven. One of my favorite MM Ebooks. So when I say this release I just jumped at the chance to get it.

Gaven has grown up a little and is trying to find his place with his new family. His inner thoughts take us through all his struggles and worries and taking the reader for a emotion ride.

So many parts of this book made me smile as we learned more about teaser and the 'eight.'

The change in Gaven's relationship with his family surprised and pleased me.

But it was the fierce and hot love that wraps this story together so nicely.



Book reviewed- Wolf Town by Joely Skye


Book Blurb- Poised to run. Aching to stay. What lies between is sweet torture.

For nine years, Scott Lund has been erasing himself. Making sure his own kind

My Rating- 3.75/ 5

My Thoughts- I almost missed this book.

The blurb (as you can see) did nothing for the sale. If it had not been recommended to me I probably would have never read it.

But I am glad that I did. It’s a cute werewolf story that is unusual and had a great story line. The author took the old werewolves and added a twist. It was a nice change from all of the others out there.

The story could have been longer… expanded better and I would say it would have been awesome. Still it was good. The ending was a little disappointing, I wish we had had more time with the characters. But who know maybe there will be another.

I am happy to be getting back into the reviews. I already have more lined up for next week. So great books have been released in the last couple months.
