Crowntide – Alex Aster
I can’t believe the end of this book and the fact that we have to wait for an unknown time for the new one. This book has my heart in tatters, I didn’t want to put it down, I didn’t want to leave my house (but I had to). Isla is such a fierce one once she found her fire, the things she had to endure in this book is nothing short of astonishing. Isla has to pick between Oro and Grim, which one will it be? What will be left standing of Lightlark at the end of this book? Click on ‘Read More’ to read my full review on this book.

The Good Samaritan – John Marrs
The end of the line is a help-line for people that are in need of someone who listens to them but don’t judge; all the operators are volunteers and have had courses to teach them to stay neutral. Laura is different though; Why talk people into living their miserable lives when they could end it on their own terms? With a bit of persuasion from her off course; not everyone meets the criteria of being a mark though. After learning more about Laura you just get to know how dangerous she really is.
