Rescue Me From Paradise by Jordan Rivet
My Review I really didn’t know where the author could take the story next, and if I’d had to guess, I would have been wrong! We’re introduced to a new protagonist, Kate, whose backstory is sad but compelling. In fact, the way they entered cryosleep was through a violent battle, one that was easy to… Continue reading Rescue Me From Paradise by Jordan Rivet
Follow Me to Armageddon by Jordan Rivet
My Review I’m not kidding, this story was like an epic masterpiece all the way through with its 399 pages. Yes, I know, it’s not like me to read that much. I’m a novella girl. But honestly, wow, just wow. The people from the bunkers who have woken from their 200 year sleep, are now… Continue reading Follow Me to Armageddon by Jordan Rivet
A Man in The Dark By Mary Woldering

As a vampire, he can extract far more than answers in this often grim and violent world.… Continue reading A Man in The Dark By Mary Woldering
Meet Me At World’s End by Jordan Rivet

What made it more interesting is we met people who were briefly in the first book. I always like that, it’s a… Continue reading Meet Me At World’s End by Jordan Rivet

Fir Real This time by Claire Shaw
My Review I can honestly say I’ve never read a book like this before. It was quirky and full of humour. The interaction between Jack and Neveah had the sort of dry humour I absolutely adore. Neveah inherited a Christmas tree farm, and Jack was the worker who kept things going. He thought a woman… Continue reading Fir Real This time by Claire Shaw
