Review Time!!

And so it begins!  So as I posted on the FB page a bit ago I was reading Black And Blue (Quentin Black Mystery #5; Quentin Black: Shadow Wars #1) by J.C. Andrijeski.  I have been a tad obsessed with her books lately because not only did I read this one but I read about 6 of her books. Like I said, obsessed. I am currently working on reviews for those books but here is the review for Black and Blue. If you want to check out my reviews for the other keep an eye on my Goodreads and Amazon profiles ;) 

So without further ado. My review.

Black And Blue (Quentin Black Mystery #5; Quentin Black: Shadow Wars #1)
Author:  J.C. Andrijeski
Reviewed by: MB
Rating: 3 Stars

All I can say is what a ride. This seer world is riddled with so much action, intrigue, and urgency that I've come to count on in JC Andrijeski's books.

In this story there was a literal bomb that dropped that it took my mind a minute to catch up to what my eyes just read. I didn't expect it one bit, but man did it work and made the story that much more robust.

One of my favorite parts of these stories in the interaction between Miri and Black. The two of them together are explosive and getting to follow along to see how they navigate the waters of their new bond and getting to know each other is great. This story sadly didn't have as much of them together as I've become accustomed too, but more of the fight to get back to each other.

I did feel a little bit like I was hanging there at the end wanting to read more about their reunion and how they worked through more of their issues, but I expect to see that in the novella and throughout the rest of the series so here's hoping.

As per usual, the writing is well done. This seer world is so fascinating and descriptive that I can't help but consume them to find out more, so on to the next adventure.

It feels good to be back and reviewing again so you will see them evolve some as I get back into the rhythm.

Once Upon a Time

Hi All!

If you don't know me, I'm MB (Mary Beth for long). My friend Kris and I have been in this crazy book world for a lot of years now. We've done some blogging, reviewing, were beta readers, graphic desingers (Kris not me), worked for an awesome PR company, helped work an awesome Event called Penned con  and are even dabbling in some writing. What we realized through the years is that we missed the community aspect of the book world. 

With being behind the scenes we fell behind and got a little out of touch with the new authors and even some of our favorites. We'll that's going to change right not..... or well in the near future but we are starting the new page in a few days so whatever; STOP JUDGING ;) .   We are going back to our roots and decided to start a new blog called About The Story Book Blog. We will be reading not for the author, (not to say we don't have our favs), not for the genre, but for the story. We want to bring the fun back to blogging and not just be a promo mill. We will share things we like besides just books, like music because that tells a story and maybe movies or who knows what else. We'll have takeovers, games, contests, maybe a scavenger hunt or two but best of all you will get to know us and hopefully we will get to know you. 

We will accept review submission and sign up for blog tours but we will do so on a strategic basis. We do want to share these fabulous authors with you but we will be selective in doing so. 

We will also be starting an About The Story Book Blog Jr. Our children have somehow become readers as well and they want to share their love for books with you. They will also display their art and maybe some of the music they love.  

So stay tuned for the fun, who knows you might find something you love.

~MB & Kris
