This book is Awesome. It’s not your typical forty-fifty page kids non-fiction book. It could easily be used as a beginning text book on graphic design. Things are explained so that they are easily understood without dumbing the information down. Plus the snippets of other interesting tidbits like where the different fonts came from, the brief history of I <3 NY, and where words originated from take this from textbook to really entertaining.

The publisher classifies this book as erotica, and it has potential. Currently this reviewer feels this is more of a steamy romance novel. The distinction is that this story at heart is too sweet. The author tries to use blunt wording like pussy and dick & with the surrounding story comes out vulgar rather than erotic. The story is good, Lord Simon Northam was once the beau to Lady Rowena until she married his best friend. Now that Paul is dead, Simon and Rowena have a chance to be together again. This is book one in the Rekindled Passion series and my advice to the Author is this: Your scenes are good and solid. However they can be made better by keeping wording in sex scenes with the surrounding feel of the story.

The kids in my library will eat this up. Dinosaurs are supposed to be extinct, but luckily for Tib he finds one and it becomes his best friend. Tumtum is really good at hide and seek. Tib is telling tall tales just like his dad. The illustrations are accessible to any age and the way the story breaks makes it a great bed time book because it can be put down and easily picked up again.

I love when I find a graphic novel that is easy for young kids to understand without alienating the mid to upper elementary. This book has done just that. It all starts with a game of tag. No one wants to play with our hero. So he takes a trip through the bramble (thorny bushes) to a place where everyone wants to play. But there is danger lurking nearby and the new world needs a hero.

I love this series. It’s a great pull for reluctant readers and reminds me of Brian Jacques Redwall series in the soul of the story. I hope the author keeps it up.

This story is not at all what I expected. It’s a sweet story of soccer star Chris Fisher discovering and coming to terms with being gay. His mother just recently passed away and he cannot be alone in his grief with the rest of the soccer team watching. He moves into a small single dorm room next to his openly gay next door neighbor. Peter and Chris had a bit of a connection in a tent during a camping trip. I expected this book to be dirty and gritty but it had depth and real heart.

This is an Australia erotica story. Mac is on a special scientific research trip that will have her hiking in and out of the Australian jungle. While on this trip it is Mac’s intention to lose her virginity. She feels she is too old (22) to still be in hold of this commodity. Arriving at base camp she meets a shirtless Jason and falls head over heels in lust. This book seems overly long and drawn out.

This book is exquisite. Each page is fully illustrated, but it much more than just another picture book. Sasha is a beautiful boy. His family dies and he runs away to join the circus. This is actually two stories originally published as comic books. They don’t have the feel of a comic book, which will help it appeal to more people.

There is something to be said about going after things you want. But Daniel wants Marcus Tremeyne. He may not be a virgin, but he is new to the BDSM world and he is persistently stalks Marcus an experienced Dom. While Bret might be a brat, he has something Marcus just can’t ignore.

This is in a series, but I like that you don’t need to read the series in order. Luke Preston is a notorious Chicago playboy, known for his frequent and scandalous sexual escapades. That is until the day he gets shot. He takes time off in the tropics to get out of the public eye and meets Peyton. Peyton is taking a much needed vacation and plans to spice up her seriously lacking sex life. She gets all she was seeking and more then she was bargained for. My only complaint is the language; especially from Luke while in the sack is so cliché. Oh Baby, Oh Boy.
