The Know It Owl and the Axolotl by Terri Sabol

 

The Know It Owl and the Axolotl by Terri Sabol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Know It Owl is a pretty smart bird. In this story, he knows all about axolotls and isn't afraid to share it! This book, while a work of fiction, does have some interesting facts about axolotls. There are also a couple of Spanish words and a method of measuring in the book using colored pencils. These features allow for further teaching beyond the words of the page.

I love this series and look forward to reading more!

Shadowed Intentions: A Shadow Defense Security Thriller Book 6 by Mavery Ellscott

 

Shadowed Intentions: A Shadow Defense Security Thriller Book 6 by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love this series!! There is so much mystery, intrigue, and thrilling adventures throughout. I recommend reading these books in order, even though each book is technically a stand-alone. There are characters who pop in and out that you'll want to know more about.

This story is no different than the others in terms of mystery, suspense, and adventure. Talia and Olivia are the focused characters in this story. A creep that's been after Olivia for years has resurfaced and Talia needs to keep her safe. Talia was on a much needed vacation with Kenjiro until they received this word and now they are rushing Olivia to a safehouse.

There is drama, mystery, intrigue, romance, and some light humor to keep you on your toes. I highly recommend this read!

Back to Us: A Small Town Romantic Comedy (Shore Secrets Book 3) by Christi Barth

 

Back To Us: A Small Town Romantic Comedy by Christi Barth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This story will have you laughing one minute and tearing up the next. I found myself wanting to strangle both Ward and Piper at various points for their actions but ultimately forgave them in the end. I was not aware that book was part of a series and this is the first one I've read in the series. Now I need to go back and catch up on what I've missed! A great read that is a bit of a rollercoaster ride but will have you smiling in the end.

Marked to Be Mine (The Erased #1) by India Kells

 

Marked to Be Mine by India Kells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in a new series and, wow, if this is the just the first book, I can't wait for more! This story reminded me of the Jason Bourne movie series, which I absolutely loved.

Maeve (LOVE her name!) is an investigative journalist who doesn't take just any answer. She wants the truth and she will do what it takes to find it. When she runs into Reaper, she doesn't back down from him, nor does she let up on him. He's soulless, lost, and needing to remember.

I love this story of survival, hope, adventure, action, and so much more. There were a few parts that dragged in the middle but overall, this was a great read and I look forward to more!
