REVIEW by Jena: First Grave On The Right by Darynda Jones (@Darynda)
Charley Davidson is a part-time private investigator and full-time grim reaper. Meaning, she sees dead people. Really. And it’s her job to convince them to “go into the light.” But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (like murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice. Complicating matters …

REVIEW by Matt: The Immortal Prince (Tide Lords #1) By Jennifer Fallon (@JenniferFallon, @MattALarkin)
When a routine hanging goes wrong and a murderer somehow survives the noose, the man announces he is an immortal. And not just any immortal, but Cayal, the Immortal Prince, hero of legend, thought to be only a fictional character. To most he is a figure out of the Tide Lord Tarot, the only record left …

REVIEW by Jena: Iced (Dani O’Malley #1) by Karen Marie Moning (@KarenMMoning)
The year is 1 AWC—After the Wall Crash. The Fae are free and hunting us. It’s a war zone out there, and no two days are alike. I’m Dani O’Malley, the chaos-filled streets of Dublin are my home, and there’s no place I’d rather be. Dani “Mega” O’Malley plays by her own set of …

She escaped, but she’ll never be free. “Time held no meaning as my mind darted in and out of memories.

Review by CC: Forbidden Mind (Forbidden #1) by Kimberly Kinrade (@KimberlyKinrade, @RestlessReader)
She reads minds. He controls minds. Together, they might get out alive. 49% of Americans believe their government officials are honest.
