In May of 2017 I added A Quiet Kind of Thunder to my TBR. I’m not sure if it was recommended to me or if I saw something in the description that I wanted to read more about, but I just know I added it to my ever growing list and there is sat. Actually it sat there for 2 years even while I had a copy readily available to me. And then in November of 2019 I was looking for a Q book to read for a reading challenge. I hit up my trusty TBR list and the first […]
Brothers liking the same girl can easily be a hit or miss with me. The author really has to nail it for me to buy into it because if they don’t it can come off a gross and creepy.

I was worried how I would feel about it. I was scared I wouldn’t love it. I was scared I would be disappointed or conflicted. Instead I got one […]
If you know me you know my love for all things time travel and parallel life. I’m a sucker for stories where you get to see the future or what life could have been my making a change. To me these two things really go hand in hand. If someone travels into the future they are now creating a parallel life where this happens and that will change things. It is an endless loop of mind games and questions. And the newest book in the Future Shock trilogy, Future Threat, does just that. Future Threat takes place 6 months after […]
