Moody and the Ghost: Batten Down

Moody & The Ghost: BATTEN DOWN: A Ghostly Mystery by Kim Hornsby

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Don't miss this series. I had to give it a four star, because I don't like cliff hangers. Actually isn't one; it concludes, but I NEED to know what happens next. It is just like the first in the series. The plot is very creative. Characters are real. As I have said before, a ghost in a story usually scares me, but in this series, the ghosts are unusual and while mean at times, they are just short of hilarious. In fact parts of the book are quite funny, especially how Moody interacts with her mother. It was a quick and very interesting read. One will enjoy this lighthearted book.

Moody and the Ghost: Dead Ahead

Moody & The Ghost - DEAD AHEAD: Moody Humorous Mystery Series by Kim Hornsby

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Kim Hornsby has created a unique paranormal story. The plot is very creative. Characters are real. Having a ghost in a story usually scares me, but in this one, the ghosts are unusual and while mean at times, they are just short of hilarious. In fact parts of the book are quite funny, especially how Moody interacts with her mother. It was a quick and very interesting read. The only disappointing fact was that the book is too short, which is the case in most of Ms. Hornsby's novels, but being a series redeems that. One will enjoy this light hearted book. On to read the next one in the series.

Home For Wounded Hearts

Home for Wounded Hearts by Ashley Farley

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Ashley Farley has created PERFECTION in a spin-off of her series, The Sweeney Sisters. It can be read as part of the series or as a stand-a-lone. There is romance in the continuing marriage of Mike and Faith, compassion, mystery, and love between friends. It has an excellent plot with well-developed characters. The characters' personalities are real, not the figment of an author's imagination. The only thing wrong with it is one does not want to think I can start this before I sleep, because at 4 a..m when you finish the book, you'll realize the time. While you are reading, you are engaged in the story and won't even think about putting it down. I highly recommend this story, plus all the others Ms. Farley has written.

The First Noel at the Villa des Violettes

The First Noël at the Villa des Violettes by Patricia Sands

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Wow! Patricia Sands has developed her characters, Kat, Phillipe, and Simone to the next level. They are delightful and so alive. This is not just a Christmas novella. It has a fantastic plot filled with intrigue, romance, well-developed, friendships, kindness and a general good read. Even the pups are enjoyable. The setting is described to the point that the reader feels like they are travelling in France in reality. When shopping in the markets, one can feel the excitement and hear the noise. I suggest that everyone read this and become a die-hard fan of Ms. Sands.
