Latest Read: Dead Ever After

Latest Read: Dead Ever After by Charlaine Harris

I know I just put out the May “Latest Reads”, but with the angst and uproar surrounding this book, I felt compelled to share my reaction to the final installment of the Sookie Stackhouse novels.

To start, I have loved these books since the beginning. They were recommended by a friend and the moment I got them I couldn’t put them down. As soon as I caught up with the already published books, I would anxiously await the newest one every May. Did I looooove the egotistical yet charming character of Eric Northman? You betcha! Did I frequently hope Bill would die a painful death? Often. Did I adore Sookie’s best friend, confident, boss/business partner, Sam? Most definitely. Did I anxiously await Pam’s witty yet snide comments and her stunning wardrobe choices? Always. Did I cringe several times at the extended Fairy plot? Oh yes! Well, I could go on, but you get the idea. So how do I feel about this final installment? In truth, I saw the ending coming a mile away and I liked it.

Don’t get me wrong, there were parts I found subpar. I rolled my eyes something fierce when one of the villains (yes, I said one…there are many) was reveled. I gagged a little while reading the sex scene description near the end (not Harris’ best work there). And the changing POV took some adjustment. But there were other things I very much enjoyed. I loved the cameo parade of just about every character ever written into the storyline (with the exception of Bubba…not sure how she left him out). At the close of the series, Sookie came full circle as a human being. She went from a shy, introverted, telepathic oddball to a strong self-assured woman in complete control of her telepathic ability. I also really enjoyed how Harris tied up every loose end possible (very pleased with the closure surrounding Pam). It was a fitting end to a long series. For those who are dissatisfied with the end, would you have preferred Sookie end up as a concubine in Oklahoma? Personally, I much prefer the Sookie that can stand firmly on her own two feet with a whole community behind her come hell or high water.

Lastly, I am utterly appalled by the number of one star reviews and argumentative threads/posts (especially on Goodreads) from people who admittedly have not even read the book. But then again, the book is on the best seller list, so the critical hype has obviously done wonders for marketing! If a person read it and rated it as a one star, that is most definitely the reviewer’s prerogative, but to review a book (any book) without actually reading is shameless and pathetic!

Final Thought:  I say read it and take it for what it is…a book! Thank you, Ms. Harris, for countless hours of entertainment over the years!

 

 

Latest Reads: May 2013

May Latest Reads

         I have to admit, this latest reads has some of my new favorites! Three out of the five, were ‘I can’t put this book down’ and ‘why do I have to work again?’ whines. And the other two were decent, so all in all a good reading experience. I think one of the best parts about this edition was the fact that I got to compare a book and movie…one of this nerd girl’s FAVORITE things! I always read the book first. I have to be able to develop the characters and setting on my own first. Sometimes, like with Silver Linings Playbook, I heard about the book after the movie, so the characters already had a face. This usually didn’t pose a problem as long as I don’t know too many details. I hate knowing what’s coming next. It doesn’t work for me as a reader. I don’t have the luxury of the using my imagination to figure it out (or at least get close).  After reading the book, I rented the DVD, which was absolutely superb! It was more of a love story that surrounded a broken family. The actors and actresses did a fantastic job, but I already love Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper and Robert Dinero.  I highly recommend the movie.

Read on for my thoughts on this book and others.

 

Silver Lining Playbook by Matthew Quick

I read this cover to cover in about four hours and absolutely loved the character Pat Peoples. He is unique, engaging and quite whacky! The book is really a story about a man. The readers sees Pat go through many changes as he tries to cope with ‘the incident’, which is even worse than he remembers. The reader follows Pat as he experiences life on the outside (of the mental institution). We watch his growth and change. We feel his experiences. Matthew Quick did an excellent job!

Final thought: One of my new ‘all time’ faves!

 

A Fool and his Honey by Charlaine Harris

I follow this series. I follow Charlaine Harris. Roe Teagarden is an enjoyable character. She has become more serious since inheriting a bunch of money and marrying and older man. In this book, Ms. Harris really keeps the reader guessing. There is a lot going on at one time and even though all the incidents appear to be haphazard, they are nothing short of methodical and purposeful, deliberately placed to entice the reader all the way through. As a reader, I’m very disappointed in the ending. As a writer, I completely understand the author’s actions and choices!  

Final Thought: I am anxious to see what Ms. Harris has in store for Roe next!

 

Beautiful Darkness by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl

I am so drawn to this series. One day, I hope to have a fraction of the talent and storytelling ability these two women have.  At the end of Beautiful Creatures, Ethan and Lena overcame a great travesty at a huge price. This story picks right up with the angst and pain caused from the climax of book one. In the second book, Lena pulls away from Ethan as she copes with her growing abilities and the uncertainty of the future. Ethan, ever the gracious hero, refuses to give up on Lena, or their love. About halfway through the story, my jaw dropped to the floor (a brilliant plot twist). The authors might as well have climbed out of my kindle and smacked me upside the head; and that was only the beginning! The authors continued to WOW the reader with twists and turns right up until the very end. Can’t to carve out some time for the next one!

Final thought: Love this series even more after book two!

 

Illuminated Knights by Brian Bresee

In this self published novel, a young man learns of a secret higher society and his role in an extraordinary destiny that lay out ahead of him.  The premise of the story is quite captivating. My criticism of this story surrounds the style of writing. As a reader, I prefer to feel a story, and to see a story unfold in my mind’s eye. Bresee does a great job of telling us about the story instead of painting a picture and allowing the reader to get lost within the story. You may have heard of ‘showing not telling’…this story has more telling than showing.

Final thought: It has great premise, but the storytelling work.

 

Uniquely Unwelcome by Brandy Nacole

I received this book for an honest review. As an avid paranormal fantasy fan, I appreciated the ‘unique’ spin Nacole uses in her creation of the Shadow World. In this story the main character, Racquel, is something of an enigma. Her cohorts are fun and entertaining characters. Right away the reader is drawn in and intrigued by the entire plot. However, the downside to this story was the multiple typos and grammatical errors.

Final Thought: All in all, I enjoyed this story.

Thanks you for reading! I hope you’ll join me for another edition of Latest Reads. Next up:

Dead Ever After (The final Sookie Stackhouse novel) by Charlaine Harris

Rules of Prey (A Lucas Davenport Novel) by John Sanford

Destined Oracle by J. G. Martinez

She’s Come Undone by Wally Lamb

Latest Reads: April 2013

My name is Stephanie and I am a complete book-a-holic. My kindle may actually be my unraveling…ironic. Seriously, I wish I could be one of those women who collects shoes, at least I’d get to show them off! I read more now than ever before. I rationalize it as recon. I tell myself it’s the author in me, but I fear it’s actually a deep rooted obsession. My reading has changed. I can now read more than one book at a time…in fact, I thrive on it. I feel like something is missing if I’m only reading one book at a time. Although, I will admit, “Silver Linings Playbook” completely captured me! I had to STOP everything else for about six hours and read that book cover to cover. Pat Peoples is a totally engrossing and consuming character. I picked it up on a Friday night (Yes, I read on Friday nights…total nerd girl). About 75% in, the exhaustion from a long week took over, so I was forced to finish it first thing Saturday morning…sooo good (more about it in the next edition)! Needless to say, consuming books has become more of an addiction than a hobby…but it’s all recon…after all, I’m still paying my bills, working my day job AND writing (25,000 words last month). To make myself feel better, I like consider myself a functioning book-a-holic.

Please enjoy some of my thoughts on the April edition of my ‘Latest Reads’!

J Happy Reading! J

 

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

I’ll start at the very beginning with this one. The first time I read it (junior year/honors English), I was 16 years old. The funny thing about this one, I had no interest at first; it wasn’t Sweet Valley High and it didn’t involve anything with boys or hangin’ out…with boys! I drug my feet over and over until time had run out and I needed to complete the class project. So I picked up the cliff notes, finished the assignment, handed it in, got an A. I enjoyed the cliff notes and doing the project so much I read the book AFTER the assignment! I LOVED it! Immediately, I fell in love with Gatsby. I mean what whimsical teenage girl wouldn’t fall in love with the handsome, charming, eccentric millionaire that could sweep her off her feet?? It was a pivotal book of my youth. I was completely enamored with F. Scott Fitzgerald and his characters. That being said, reading it many (20) years later, I had quite a different perspective. This time around, I was still completely enamored with Gatsby, except this time my feelings were much different. Cynicism replaced whimsical. I wanted to protect him from Daisy, Tom, himself and everyone else who took advantage and used him. I think I missed many of the underlying adult themes as a young, naïve, high-school student. I saw a fool in love, willing to quite literally give his life for a woman, who was completely unworthy of his love. This time around, the cruelty of the world and the heartache jumped from the pages. Funny how life, growth and fundamental adulthood can jade a person and change one’s perspective.

Final Thought: Still a captivating book and one of my all time faves! Can’t wait to read it again in another 20 years!

Novel Hearts: An Anthology by Write More Publication Authors

To start, I am a featured author in this anthology.  I feel so lucky to have been involved in this anthology. This publication from Write More Publications offered authors a chance to write stories around some of their favorite characters just for the fans. I was honored to be involved with such a unique project! That being said, my story, “The Twistedly True Nightmare of Ruby Hood” is featured in this anthology, but my commentary will focus only on the other stories.

The River Liffey by Rebecca Boucher: I found this story to be well written and intriguing. Right away, I was deeply invested with the characters and wanted more! I look forward to the novel, on which this story is based!

My Forever Love by Theresa Oliver: As a prequel (of sorts) to “Star”, the readers gets an inside peek into Rick’s past life. Having already read “Star”, I already loved Rick, so this one was an easy one to jump into and enjoy!

Be Mine by Jennifer Paquette: As an avid fan of Greek Mythology and Jennifer Paquette, she had me at Aphrodite! The descriptions are a tasty treat (I seriously had to stop and get some chocolate during the vault scene)! This short and sweet story depicts the inception of Valentine’s Day. The reader can’t help but smile and blush!

Hungry by Amber White: How can I NOT love a story with the main character named Steph??? For the zombie enthusiasts, this one is a winner!

A Heart That Cannot Beat by Elaine White: Ms. White offers a variety of supernatural stories in this one. If you enjoy a bevy of supernatural stories speckled with love, this one is for you.

Fat Chance My Love by J.S. Wilsoncroft: For the romantic at heart! This one follows Wilsoncroft’s story, “Fat Chances”. If you love the fairy tale ‘happily ever after’ for the unlikely character, this one is for you.

Crazy Love by Molly Bryant: Ms. Bryant’s tale was quite enjoyable. Her writing really takes a hold of the reader and leads her on a well written journey. It was a fun little snippet of love and parenting.

Final thought: This book will appeal to all romantics (and many cynics), it’s got plenty of great characters to connect with and keep those pages turning!

Runaway Girl by Elaine White

An interesting vampire adventure! A vampire (kind of a pain-in-the-ass vampire) gets her soul severed into the living souls of multiple girls. However, her soul need to be reunited so she can marry Damian (aahhh, Damian), and rule the clans! Of course, it’s not going to be that simple, silly readers!  White leads the reader through multiple twists and turns, at the end the readers is pleasantly pleased with the direction of the story…and it’s just the beginning!

Final thought: Vampire enthusiasts indulge!

Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl: I really don’t even know where to start…I LOVED this book (I LOVE the second one, as well)! Although it is deemed ‘young adult’, the older characters pack a helluva punch! The old, wise, realistic part of my soul completely identified with the methodical and cautious ways of Macon and Amma. These two have a mysterious and complicated history.  Even at the end, the reader is left wondering. The main characters of the story, Ethan and Lena are epic! The youthful, adventurous, impulsive aspect of my soul completely identified with that time when one still believes love/adoration is limitless and boundless. While they are vastly different…er…creatures, they have a deep affection for one another, and they won’t let anything keep them apart. The authors easily captivate the reader. At the end, I felt like there was a great resolution (although, I was sad and a little…OK really… pissed). But there are new questions to be answered and a new path for the characters.  Like I said, I’m hooked…ten pages into the second book, I had to make sure the third one was downloaded! (Did I mention I’m a raving book-a-holic and a total nerd girl???)

Final thought: Loving this series! It is my guilty pleasure of the moment!

The Surgeon by Tess Gerritsen

Very happy to have found Tess Gerritsen! As a huge fan of the TV series ‘Rizzoli and Isles’, it seemed natural that I would read the books, once I found out the series was based on books. (Aren’t all the good ones???) I wasn’t disappointed in the least. A riveting read! I was addicted almost immediately. Gerritsen’s descriptions and details are impressive (that’s the writer in me…wow…super impressed! I could picture every detail). Gerritsen leads the reader on a convoluted journey that follows a violent and mentally unstable killer, who was always one step ahead! I hated to read it right before bed with the creepy killer lurking on every page, but I simply couldn’t help myself! I just had to pick it up. I stayed up late reading (too late many nights), thanks to the talent of Tess Gerritsen!

Final thought: Yes, in my kindle obsession, I’ve already downloaded books two and three!

Latest Reads: March 2013

Since getting my kindle, I have been consuming books. It has been fantastic! It has reminded me that deep down I'm really am a nerdy girl/bookworm extraordinaire! I must say it beats the wild club/bar days of my footloose and fancy-free youth. Although I'm not entirely sure a direct link between books and my bank account is the best thing, it's almost as expensive as the wild/club scene days with less wrinkles and wear and tear on my body! ;) Here are some of my thoughts on my ‘Latest Reads’!

FYI: One of my current reads: “Beautiful Creatures”…totally addicted!!!

Uprising by Dawn Jayne:

To say I thoroughly enjoyed ‘Uprising’ would be a vast understatement. I absolutely loved this book! The storyline and plot were unlike anything I’ve ever read, plus the writing was superb! And the characters are fantastically developed! You can’t help but fall in love with Rise!  Dawn Jayne has a way with words and a true talent. In Uprising, she has created an elaborate and extensive angelic world. She lets the reader in piece by piece and creates an incredible sense of suspense, but as a reader, I was never confused only pulled further into the story.  I couldn’t put this one down and can’t wait for the next one!

Dead Over Heels by Charlaine Harris:

I am a huge fan of this series! I find Roe Teagarden to be a highly entertaining character. I love that this short bushy haired librarian stumbled into a wad of money and an ex gangster husband. Her new bodyguards are and interesting touch. So what happens when one of her biggest enemies (and the police chief) literally falls from the sky? Well, you get the intricate plot of Dead Over Heels. I didn’t see this one coming folks. Harris wove the tail expertly, as per usual. A good, quick, entertaining read!

With Open Eyes by Iris and Roy Johansen:

This was my first experience with these authors. I know they have written many books, and in all honestly I’m not sure I will try another. The story was okay, but it was really short, even for a short story. It was over at 52%. I felt like I was being told about a police investigation instead of reading and becoming engrossed in a story about a woman involved in a police investigation. I found it to be predictable with minimal ‘Show Not Tell’.

Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn

Okay, this was my first experience with Gillian Flynn and I will read more of her stuff. “Gone Girl” is on my list! In “Sharp Objects”, a troubled reporter must go back to her home town to sniff out a few murders that might (or might not) have a connection. Flynn spins an intricate tale and leads our heroine down some pretty risqué paths, too. Well, the end came, I was shocked! Then she wrapped it up with another twist! Well done, Ms. Flynn. I’m a new fan!

No Sanctuary by Cynthia Melton

I’m a fan of this YA zombie series! It’s a quick read with fun entertaining characters. Melton did a great job keeping me on the edge of my seat. In part two, she created real world conflicts, not just zombie related problems, which really made the characters more believable! She weaves a multilevel intricate tale. It’s impossible not to love Colton and Chalice! The character Mychal also becomes more independent in this part. Can’t wait to see what comes next!

The Possibilities of Amy by Jaye Frances

I received this book from the author for an honest review. To start, I really liked this story. The author can spin a great story, and her male high school perspective is highly engaging. Her attention to details and character development are impressive. But, I wanted more. I felt it ended abruptly and left me hanging. The ending left me to my own creative devices to discern the characters motivations, which might have been the author’s intent, because I did give it a lot of thought. After the story the author includes excerpt from her other works, which led me to download another one of her stories. I will continue to read the talented Ms. Frances. I like her style.

Emily and Einstein by Linda Francis Lee

A highly recommended read! To say I LOVED this story would be a gross understatement!!! This story had everything: an exceptional plot, incredibly believable characters, exquisite writing, insight and life lessons! I love a good story about a broken girl, who pulls herself up by the boot straps, puts on her big girl panties and handles life. As a reader, I couldn’t help but identify with Emily, and as a dog lover, I immediately fell in love with Einstein! The two are good for each other. They teach each other about life, love, despair, pain, selfishness, independence and ultimately, happiness. Truly, one of the best books I’ve read in a long time!

Death Lilly by Rebecca Nolan

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

That being said, this young adult paranormal thriller had at me at the get-go! Right from the beginning, it was easy to see there was something special and different about Lilly, but the author did a great job of adding just enough foreshadowing to build suspense without giving anything away. I found it easy to relate with Lilly, to empathize with her many different situations, and to want to save her! The author perfectly depicts the setting of Paradise End and high school life in a town that is loaded with mystery and intrigue. After the conflict was resolved, numerous questions were presented to lure the reader into the next book. There were bits and pieces near the end that I found a tad confusing. There was a lot of information and back-story to process and organize, not to mention I am still a little up in the air about whether some of the characters are on the side of good or evil. I assume that was intentional, and it worked! I have my own theories and will definitely tune in for the next one! Nicely done!

Novel Hearts Anthology

"The Twistedly True Nightmare of Ruby Hood"

As an author, I don’t get the opportunity to write a story just for the readers very often. Normally, I write to quiet the voices in my head (I know, sounds like I’m a crazy person…maybe). Often times, the incessant chatter of my characters interrupts my daily thoughts. At night, they creep into my dreams and whisper to me. They bombard me on my walks, in the car, at the grocery store or in the shower. Once my characters are developed, a story plays out in my head, and then I write. But recently, I was approached by my publisher to create a new story based on the characters from my novella, “The Twistedly True Tale of Ruby Hood”.  She explained the story would be featured in an anthology titled “Novel Hearts”. The anthology would include seven other stories based on characters of Write More Publications authors and their books.

Of course, I leapt at the opportunity. First off, I absolutely adore my ‘Ruby Hood’ characters! Secondly, I LOVED the idea of intentionally writing a story for the readers. This was my chance to entice the readers, to get them interested in my characters, to lure them into my version of “Little Red Riding Hood”, with the ultimate goal of purchasing my book when it comes out. Simple enough, right? Not exactly. A huge hurdle shot up instantly. How do I write a story based on a book and characters very few have met without giving anything away? This took some very strategic plotting and planning. Finally, I came up with the idea to write a prequel. This prequel stays true to my young adult fairy tale version, but with a twist on both my original story AND the fairy tale. All the characters are introduced, but they are somewhat…um…different than my true ‘Ruby Hood’ characters. I was able to tie it all up at the end, bringing it full circle, and with a bit of luck, leaving the reader wanting more. How you ask? Well now, I’m not going to give that away here. Hopefully, I’ve piqued your interest enough to check out my prequel, The Twistedly True Nightmare of Ruby Hood”!

Happy Reading!

P.S. The other seven stories in “Novel Hearts” are absolutely wonderful!

Author Interview

 

Interview with Elaine White, author of “Runaway Girl”

 

Stephanie: First off, please tell us a little bit about your novel.
Elaine: Runaway Girl is a vampire novel with a twist.  It explores the hidden world of vampires from the inside.  Loyal vampire soldier Damian must put aside his personal feelings to reclaim the throne for the lost Princess Amelia.  Her soul has been divided between 5 human girls.  Damian must find the girls and reunite Amelia’s soul in order for her to claim leadership of the three united clans.  However, her brother Matthew believes that it is his right to rule and he will fight to succeed his father to glory.

Stephanie: What was your inspiration for this story?

Elaine: Originally, I wanted to write a story about a woman falling in love with a vampire.  Then somewhere during the writing process, the main character became the love interest Damian.  I realised that most of the vampire books/shows out there were either focused on a warrior male, or a teenage girl in love with a vampire.  I wanted to write a book about vampires, for teens and over, about the inner aspects of a vampire clan.  It grew from there.

Stephanie: How many books are in this series?

Elaine: There are six altogether.  The first is solely about vampires/human, with a brief glimpse into another world, called the Island.  Book two explores the Island more fully while Books three onwards introduce lycanthropes (werewolves) and hybrids.  The whole series is a mixture of exploring family connections, exploring trust and loyalty and what can change it, and delving into the way that the vampires interact with the other supernatural creatures they encounter.

Stephanie: I know in another interview, you stated you were a huge Buffy/Angel fan growing up. I was, too! Are there any shows/books in today’s market you simply HAVE to watch/read?

Elaine: I am a major fan of the Vampire Diaries show and the Twilight films.  I haven’t ventured into the books yet because I want to be able to go through the whole series in one go and I don’t have time for that at the moment.  I’m a complete crime fool! So the likes of CSI, Castle etc are musts.  I have really loved the Richard Castle books too.  To be honest though, I miss Buffy a lot.  It started everything for me.

Stephanie: Do you have a day job? If so, what do you do?

Elaine: Writing is my day job at the moment.  Due to health constraints I’m not fit for much more, but I would love to get a job too.  I had my heart set on Borders Books…combining music, movies and books was perfect to me.  Hopefully there will be a replacement somewhere.

Stephanie: What are some of your favorite books?

Elaine: I absolutely love the Amelia Peabody series by Elizabeth Peters.  I originally named me Amelia after her character, (when my Amelia was a much nicer person!)  I also love the Dark or Carpathian series by Christine Feehan.  I have always been a big Agatha Christie fan too.

Stephanie: Whenever I want to have a productive writing session, I MUST have coffee and music. What is something you MUST have during writing time?

Elaine: Absolute silence! It’s terrible.  TV, people talking, even music distract me far too easily.  To write a decent piece takes silence and comfort.  I like to be warm but not hot, have a good sized drink and some snacks nearby so I don’t have to move too far. Lol. Once I start writing, with those conditions, not much gets through to me.

Stephanie: Aside from this series, what else can we expect from you?

Elaine: Well, I already have the first four books in a crime series complete.  I’m still deciding whether there will be one or three more.  I also have a few college romances, a kidnapping story set in Colombia, and a Trilogy about a teenage fallen angel.

Stephanie: Is there anything else you’d like your fans/readers to know about you?

Elaine: Only that you never know what to expect.  I hate pigeon-holing people, so you probably won’t find me sticking to one genre.  I would love to hear from anyone about your opinions, takes, or reviews, whether they be good or bad.  They can only help me get better.

 

Thanks so much, Elaine! Wishing you the best of luck with all of your future writing endeavors! I know I can’t wait to read Runaway Girl!
Elaine’s book debuts Saturday, January 26, 2013. It is available in both paperback and ebook.
