April 2024 Wrap-Up

April was a busy month for me, and did it ever fly by, but I still somehow managed to get to all the books I had on my list. I'm still working on a couple of them but I'll be done with them soon.



 

What New Beginnings are Made of (Star Gazer Inn of Corpus Christi Bay Book #1) by Debra Clopton

3.5 of 5 stars

See my review here




 

The Apocalypse Troll by David Weber

3 of 5 stars.

Review to come.




 

A Forgery of Roses by Jessica S. Olson

3.5 of 5 stars

Review to come.


 

 

 

Cat Among the Pigeons (Hercule Poirot #32) by Agatha Christie

4.5 of 5 stars. 

This ended up being one of my favorites in the series, even though Poirot doesn't show up until 60% into the book. I enjoyed the characters and the espionage.




 

Foreigner (Foreigner #1) by CJ Cherryh

3 of 5 stars

Review to come.




Dark One: Forgotten by Brandon Sanderson and Dan Wells

3.5 of 5 stars

The Princess of Potential (The House Witch #4) by Delemhach

4 of 5 stars




 

The Nothing Man by Catherine Ryan Howard

4 of 5 stars

The Lookback (The Birch Creek Ranch #8) by B.E. Baker

4 of 5 stars

The Burning Witch (The Burning Witch #1) by Delemhach

4 of 5 stars

Review to come.




 

Dragons of Autumn Twilight (Dragonlance: Chronicles #1) by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman

5 of 5 stars

I finally finished this reread and I thoroughly enjoyed this all over again. I'm keeping my 5 star rating.




 

Castle Manoeuvre (Tournament of Shadows #5) by Tilly Wallace

3 of 5 stars

I originally thought this would be the last book in the series, but there will be one more. I think this series started out enjoyable enough, though not as good as Manners and Monsters, it had potential. However, as I've read each book in the series I've noticed there is a lot of filler and not much plot progression. I think it could have been condensed into three books. I will still read the last book after it's released later this year though.

 

 

 


Blood and Treachery (DCI Logan Crime Thrillers #4) by JD Kirk

3 of 5 stars

I didn't think this one was as good as the other books I've read in the series. I found it to be a lot more predictable than the others and had it all figured out pretty early on. That being said is wasn't bad and still held my interest. At this point I would really like to see some character growth for the main character. He was his usual "skirting the rules" self and I would like to see his softer side start to some out a bit.



Empire of Dirt (The Echoes Saga #2) by Philip C. Quaintrell

No rating yet because I'm still reading this one.

Review to come.








The Engines of God (The Academy #1) by Jack McDevitt 

No rating yet because I'm still reading this one.

Review to come.
