Reluctant to Love

Review: Reluctant to Love - Book #1 Written in the Stars Series - Rebecca Gallo - January 2020
I wasn't sure what Reluctant to Love was about but was drawn to it from the words the "Written in the Stars" and how each book was based on an Astrology sign. As though I don't fully believe in that side of things myself, I have always found things like horoscopes and tarot cards fascinating - this was why I loved New Orleans as they had this in all forms. Reluctant to Love starts with our female character Eleanor aka Ellie heading to a hotel for a book conference as she is ready for her dream to come true and meeting with an agent as she will finally have her name on the cover of a book, no more ghostwriting for Ellie. At the hotel, Ellie is faced though with her worst nightmare - author Roderick Payne. He was the one who got away and broke her heart into tiny pieces. Ellie was employed as his ghostwriter on the first two of his books and had an affair with him - she fell head over heels until she learned that he was married. Ellie walked out four years ago and hasn't seen or heard from him since, though she has a dark secret that she is keeping from Roderick in the form of a little girl. As Roderick tries to make Ellie fall in love with him again, will he still love her when she reveals her bombshell secret? Sprinkled throughout the novel is also tarot card and horoscope readings. Reluctant to Love by Rebecca Gallo was also a quick read romance.

James Dashner

The Death Cure written by James Dashner No, really, what did I read and why ?  James Dashner, what, what, what are you doing?  There are a few cool reveals along the way, but as far as books go, this was not a satisfying conclusion to a trilogy.  We get answers, but the one thing I wanted to know most of all (Thomas' past) remains a mystery.  It felt like most of this book was pointless action that dragged on for no reason, so even though there were things happening, it felt like nothing was happening at all.  The plot was not advanced.  It was violence for the sake of violence.  Theresa and Thomas were, at this point, the only two characters I cared about, and Teresa barely showed up at all in the entirety of the story.  The ending was rushed, and yes, I enjoyed the few twists we got at the very  end (the last page ), but come on.  This was a story that needed answers and plot twists and instead, we got epic battle scenes that I didn't ...

The Prophet of Yonwood

The Prophet of Yonwood written by Jeanne DuPrau First of all, I still don't understand why this is called "the third book of Ember" when it is clearly not the third. I was so confused about what was happening, where Lina and Doon were, until I read the back cover and found out it was a prequel. That is not the sort of information I should be getting off the back cover, that is something that should be made evident upon starting the book. For a children's book, there is an overload of social commentary, and I'm pretty sure the entire ideas would just fly over their heads, and I thought People of Sparks was bad in that regard! Hah! Regardless of whether or not I agree with her views, this is entirely too preachy. It proved very difficult to get into the plot, the characters were not well-developed, it was very slow paced, with not much action at all. I think I may possibly have only liked one page of this entire novel--the last one. How ridiculous. Don...
