    • The Santa Shop on Nov. 07, 2011
      star star star star star
      Tim Greaton's book, The Santa Shop, was given to me by a really good friend. It is one of those books that has a mix of emotions. The reader is given an inside look at the main character's inner most thoughts. As the story unfolds, I kept wondering what is the connection between the first and subsequent chapters. It isn't until the very end that all the pieces fall together. I personally love the book and I hope that others will love it as well.
    • An Affair to Remember on July 11, 2012

      I found this book highly intriguing from the beginning and I was not disappointed in anyway. The story was believable despite the twists and turns that develop throughout. The characters are put into a situation where they truly don't know who is on what side. As the story winds down you find out new information, making the ending a complete surprise. I'm sure that I'll be replaying scenes in my own mind trying to figure out what clues I missed. I'm looking forward to reading the sequel, When Love Abides as well as other books by Ms. Budden.
    • Recall! Return of the IRR on Aug. 04, 2012
      star star star star star
      A word or two of caution, this book is for mature audiences especially those of a military mindset. The book is autobiographical. It sheds light on the author and his background. I never read Doug DePew's first book, SAT & BAF! Memories of a Tower Rat, but I plan on doing so as I think it would give me the reader a better perspective of Mr. DePew's previous military journey. I thoroughly enjoyed Recall! Return of the IRR. I could plainly visualize the events as they were unfolding. I'm former U.S. Air Force so it wasn't difficult to do. In addition, I was a dependent spouse to an U.S. Army Reservists who participated in Operation Desert Storm. So the book took on a more personal feel as it progressed. The book has many humorous parts. I was reminded of the movie 'Stripes' in some parts but you'll have to read the book to understand why.
    • A Secure Heart on Aug. 05, 2012
      star star star star star
      Ms. Parkerson blending of four interwoven stories put me in mind of Dee Henderson’s O’Malley Chronicles. The major difference being that Ms. Parkerson’s characters have steamy sex and not necessarily inside the boundaries of marriage, either. The first such scene almost gave me heart flutters. However, like Ms. Henderson’s work, Ms. Parkerson has both strong female and male lead characters. Romance is often borne from what seems at first unlikely pairing. The stories seem somewhat superficial at first but then as it progresses you learn more about the characters and what makes them tick. The stories also have intriguing layers to them. So if you think you’ve figured out what’s going to happen next, think again. It really is a good read from beginning to end.
    • The Family Is Made : Part 1 (Thuggin In Miami) on Aug. 21, 2012
      star star star star star
      Rich Kid and his "family of street warriors" suffer losses and gains both in members and in business. Disclosure: Ristrict Publishing & Co allowed me the opportunity to read this book after I commented that I like crime fiction. After reading some of it, I discovered it was different than other crime fiction books I've read. You see, the view point is from the members of the "family" as opposed to law enforcement. Due to this fact, there is mention of drugs; sexual situations; violent acts, and coarse language throughout the story. The characters and dialogue used are believable. The action is well paced. Despite my unease in reading this type of book, the ending left me wanting to read the next book in the series.
    • Doodling on Oct. 15, 2012

      I was first introduced to Doodling on Independent Authors and Writers were I was impressed with the book page enough to give it Book of the Day: http://www.independentauthors.org/201... At some point later, Jonathan blessed me with a discount to the Smashwords version. It was on the terms that I was not seeking this from my review of his page but that I was happy for the opportunity to read and review his book with an open mind and an honest review. Neville falls off the world and visits several asteroids. Why does he do this...well you'll have to read the book to find out. I think this is a cross between Fantasy and Satire. Fantasy because we all know that people can't really survive in outer space without forms of protection. A Satire because there are subliminal references to society yet they are not caustic in nature. My imagination was captivated by Mr. Gould's descriptions of the people and places. I couldn't help but wonder how this was all going to turn out. I was quite pleased when all the pieces of the proverbial puzzle fell into place in the end. In some ways it put me in mind of "Gulliver's Travels".
    • Coming Unglued: A Mother's Journey into Hell on Dec. 30, 2012
      star star star star star
      Ms. Budden and I share several social media circles together. I've been watching this book grow from the first inkling of an idea to production. I was hesitant at first to read the book due to the subject matter - abuse. I'm really glad that I challenged myself to read this book. It is very well written. The story is written in first person. The reader views the thoughts of the main character, Kelly, as she re-lives her not so pretty past. The pace kept me wanting to see what would happen next - Kelly's life was full of the good and the bad that life had to offer her. I cheered for the good and wanted to wish away the bad but as we all know real life doesn't work that way. So I watched the story unfold before me. I learned a few things that I hope that I might be able to share with people that I know who are or have suffered abuse at the hands of another.
    • Love's True Second Chance on March 07, 2013

      The reader is taken on the journey as Mr. Dawson relays his true story about life with Debbie. Personally, I could relate to so much of what he shared of their journey. I’m not sure if it is because I’m also a child of the 1970s or because I've loved and lost. Either way, I felt his emotional ups and downs. I literally cried at the end of the book. I also laughed out loud at some parts because I could visualize them happening. I commend Mr. Dawson for sharing his story with others. I look forward to reading other books by him in the future.
