Tome Thursday: Crusader Gold

 

Hello everyone!

 

Welcome back.

 

Tonight's blog post is a bit of a return to my roots, in a sense, because this particular book series was what got me "re-hooked" or, hooked again, on REALLY reading, seriously and furiously.

 

I can still remember randomly picking up the first one at a store, thinking it was going to be some la-la land thing, and ending up devouring it because of how vividly and realistically it was written.

 

Then I hunted down the rest of the then-translated books (I think the first five or six were translated into my language) in my local library and gobbled those, too.

 

After finding out that the author had written more, I got them for my e-reader in English, and am now pretty much almost caught up with the series, but I figured, before I dive into the last few, I'd start it all from the beginning. And every first step is always followed by a second one, so here we are with that tonight!

 

Jack Howard dives again, and honestly? David Gibbins knows what he's doing with these.

 

Crusader Gold is up next.

 

Tome Thursday: Eight Nights in December

 

Hello everyone!

 

So going through my Christmas blog posts, I realized that I seem to be missing things, specifically holiday-related, and especially from one of my favourite authors.

 

This is, as the Grinch would say, an audacity!

 

I've somehow missed one or two holiday books by Keira Andrews, despite the fact I've done reviews during separate years where ALL I've focused on were her books.

 

It's a mystery how this happened!

 

But as I like to occasionally dig through and pull out stuff I haven't poked at yet, this year seems to be the catch-up kind of year.

 

I may not have done Booktober BUT my goodness, I'll be doing these Christmas ones right!

 

So without further ado, let's have a look at a really cute novella, shall we?

 

Eight Nights in December is absolutely adorable.
