Review - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J. K. Rowling

Synopsis: Harry Potter is midway through his training as a wizard and his coming of age. Harry wants to get away from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the International Quidditch Cup. He wants to find out about the mysterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts this year, an event involving two other rival schools of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for a hundred years. He wants to be a normal, fourteen-year-old wizard. But unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal - even by Wizarding standards. And in his case, different can be deadly.

My Review: Best in the series so far! It starts off with Harry waiting for the Weasley’s to come and get him to take him to watch the International Quidditch cup and when they do turn up they ruin the Dursley’s living room and Harry’s uncle is outraged.
          After watching the game Harry, Hermione and the Weasley’s are celebrating in their tent when chaos outside starts. When Mr Weasley leaves with the older boys to go and help out the Ministry sort the chaos which is being caused by Death Eaters the twins are told to look after Ginny and while all the children are trying to get to safety Ron, Harry and Hermione get separated from the twins and Ginny ending up in the woods, while standing in the woods the Dark Lord’s mark appears in the sky while his followers – the Death Eaters - are causing trouble.
          When they get to Hogwarts Dumbledore announces that Hogwarts plus two rival schools will be competing in the Triwizard Tournament but rules have been put in place to make it safer for students. One of the new rules means that the younger students cannot enter the tournament but somehow Harry’s name gets put into the cup (you have to read the book to see who does it).
          Harry has to battle a dragon and merfolk to get to the final round, the maze. While in the maze Harry and his fellow Hogwarts competitor Cedric make it to the centre of the maze and decide to grab the cup at the same time so that they both win, not knowing that the cup is a portkey that transports them away from Hogwarts and into a cemetery where Wormtail who kills Cedric before bringing back the Dark Lord, Lord Voldemort.
          Once Voldemort is back to full strength he tries to kill Harry who somehow manages to escape him taking Cedric’s body back with him.
          I enjoyed this book as this one seems to be the only one where Harry realistically can get through the challenges.
          The best thing about this book is Hermione acted like a regular teenage girl with a crush rather than the annoying know-it-all like in all the other books.

Review - Two's Company by Alice La Roux

Synopsis: Mira Johnson leads a quiet, boring life.


She works in a demanding job that barely covers the rent of the grotty little flat that she shares with her best friend, Jenna. To top it off, she’s unlucky in love. She’s only ever had one serious boyfriend, who left her doubting her own worth. 

That is until a steamy office encounter brings Dominic Underwood into her life, but he doesn’t come alone. His live-in girlfriend Katya is part of the package, and Mira finds herself unable to say no to that sinful smile of his. When Dominic starts to push her boundaries, she’s not sure what she’s gotten herself into. 

Two’s company, but three’s a party, right?

Warning: This novella contains adult content and is only suitable for readers 18+

My Review: At the start when Dominic Underwood asked Mira to join him and Katya to spice up his love life I was a bit unsure of if she should do it or not as I didn't want Dominic to become a jerk guy like Mira's ex but he seemed really nice.

During this relationship Mira starts to fall to Dominic and I was hoping that she would end it so she didn't get hurt but alas she didn't.

When Mira sees Dominic and Katya dressed up arm in arm she gets jealous and I was hoping her best friend and housemate Jenna would convince Mira to call it quits and tell Dominic she couldn't do it as she was falling for him but still she continues much to Jenna's and Dominic's fathers dismay.

I really enjoyed this story especially when it had me feeling sorry for Mira and I loved the ending. This is a great read especially if your looking for something saucy to spice up your day as there are nice clean saucy scenes but not to many.

Review - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J. K. Rowling


Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3)Title: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Author: J. K. Rowling
Series: Harry Potter
Pages: 435
Release Date: June 8th 1999

Synopsis: Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts is full of new dangers. A convicted murderer, Sirius Black, has broken out of Azkaban prison, and it seems he's after Harry. Now Hogwarts is being patrolled by the dementors, the Azkaban guards who are hunting Sirius. But Harry can't imagine that Sirius or, for that matter, the evil Lord Voldemort could be more frightening than the dementors themselves, who have the terrible power to fill anyone they come across with aching loneliness and despair. Meanwhile, life continues as usual at Hogwarts. A top-of-the-line broom takes Harry's success at Quidditch, the sport of the Wizarding world, to new heights. A cute fourth-year student catches his eye. And he becomes close with the new Defence of the Dark Arts teacher, who was a childhood friend of his father. Yet despite the relative safety of life at Hogwarts and the best efforts of the dementors, the threat of Sirius Black grows ever closer. But if Harry has learned anything from his education in wizardry, it is that things are often not what they seem. Tragic revelations, heart-warming surprises, and high-stakes magical adventures await the boy wizard in this funny and poignant third instalment of the beloved series.

My Review: The Prisoner of Azkaban was full of mystery, even though I hate Harry I did like the fact that he met his God Father Sirius as he treated Harry better than the Dursley’s ever did, it would have been nice if they could have cleared Sirius’ name so Harry could see Harry more and maybe Harry would not be so miserable all the time.
          In this book I felt sorry for Hagrid because even though Buckbeak was not killed he lost him when Harry and Hermione stole him to save him and Sirius from death.
          I was happy when Harry’s new broom got confiscated to have tests done on it as this was not in the film so we do not know if it was jinxed or not before it got to Harry seeing as Sirius was suspected to have escaped Azkaban because he wanted to kill Harry, he was a fugitive so how was he supposed to be able to by a broom?

Review - Harry Potter: The Prequel by J. K. Rowling


Harry Potter: The Prequel (Harry Potter, #0.5)Title: Harry Potter: The Prequel
Author: J. K. Rowling
Series: Harry Potter
Pages: 4
Release Date: June 11th 2008
Genre: Fantasy
Publisher: Books LLC
Source:
Format: eBook

Add it: Goodreads

Synopsis: The Harry Potter Prequel is an 800-word story written by J. K. Rowling, and was published online on June 11th, 2008. Set three years before the birth of Harry Potter, the story recounts an adventure had by Sirius Black and James Potter.

J.K. Rowling announced on May 28, 2008 that she was writing a prequel story for English PEN, the writers' association, and the Dyslexia Society. The story, handwritten on a card, would then be auctioned off alongside similar cards from other authors on June 11th, 2008, with the proceeds going to charity. A book of facsimiles was published in August 2008, allowing fans to own and read the story. As of 2009 the story is no longer officially available online.

The story was one of three Harry Potter writing projects undertaken by Rowling after the publication of the final book, along with The Tales of Beedle the Bard and a yet-to-be-published Harry Potter Encyclopedia project.

My Review: This prequel was about James Potter and Sirius Black who are tearing down the streets on an enchanted motorcycle, they get pulled over by the police which is a funny scene.
          This prequel gives great insight into what Harry’s father and God Father were like before Harry was born. I actually enjoyed this story it was better than the books that I have read so far.
          I think if harry had one or both of these people in his life from the start then the Harry Potter series would be so different maybe even better.
          From this prequel you can see where Harry gets his ‘getting into sticky situations’ side from.

Synopsis: Harry Potter is a wizard. He is in his second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Little does he know that this year will be just as eventful as the last...

My Review: This book was slightly better than the first one as I loved Dobby the House Elf.
          I enjoyed the Weasley kids rescuing Harry, I thought them showing up in a magical car was great and the way that Harry tricked Mr Malfoy into giving Dobby a sock to free him to free him was funny, probably the best part of the book.
          I like Ginny and I was with her when she could not talk to Harry as she was shy and crushing on him as I go all shy and quiet when I’m around someone that I like.
          Most of the time in the book I wanted to punch the Malfoy’s for being evil tools and I wanted to slap Professor Snape silly for being a prat all the time, even though I cannot stand Harry he does not deserve to have one of his teachers being horrible to him when the Dursley’s are horrible to him when he’s at home.

Synopsis: 5 Dark Mermaid tales brimming with forbidden romances, curious underwater worlds, and kick-ass revenge seeking sirens.

Get lost in Alexia Purdy’s imaginative world of legends where in the depths of the ocean, an ancient creature awakens with a horrendous appetite and begins to hunt in Bloodtides and Slipstreams. Seek vengeance against ancient Grecian Gods in Jessica Ozment’s account of how one siren risks it all to break an unsightly curse Poseidon casts upon her, forcing her to dredge her land-loving soul mate from one side of the sea to the other in Sapphira: The Lost Lady of the Water. In Nicole Strycharz’s tale of gods, love, the mer, and mortals, destiny might mean tragedy and myth might mean reality in She Comes With The Tide. Dealing with a mysterious illness with her friend at her side, Jane propels herself into the unknown and discovers that she was meant to live an extraordinary life unlike anything she could have imagined in Scales by Stefanie Jolicoeur. Travel to a unique aquatic realm where Liasa’s human lover, Visal, is held captive by the son of Poseidon, she has little choice but to do whatever he wishes in order to save the life of the man she loves in Marsha Black’s story Liasa’s Tail of Woe.

Can you survive these stimulating underwater chronicles of regret, reprisal, and retribution?

***This book contains some violence and mature sexual content best suited for ages 18 years and up. ***

Note: Most of the submissions in this book will be a continuation of other stories in the future.

My Review: I love fantasy stories and when I was asked to read this anthology I said yes.
          Some of these stories were better than others and at one point I was going to skip the story I was on and start on the next one but I persevered and read them all even though that particular story did not get better.
          Each of the stories were different which is great. The stories have broken hearts, other mythical creatures, soul mates and more. There were cliff-hangers in some of the stories which does not seem right for an anthology but I do know that some of these are just glimpses into full length novels that are to follow.

Synopsis: A menace in the sweltering jungles has been swallowing up the peaceful people and they need a hero that will make the evil ones pay…

The massive City of Bone, ruled by the maligned Royals, is where the fate of the world rests on a pair of unlikely heroes named Venir and Melegal. To the dismay of the city born rogue, Melegal, Venir, wielding a mystic war axe, sets out on a one-man crusade against the insidious race of fiends, called the underlings. Venturing deep into the wasteland’s jungles Venir discovers that the underlings have destroyed a village, slain their people and kidnapped their woman and children. Donning the mantel of power, the ultimate hunter of the Outlands sets out on one of the bloodiest rescues missions of all time. 

The Darkslayer: Brutal Beginnings is a sword and sorcery/fantasy short story that serves as a quick introduction to a much larger fantasy setting in the world called Bish. Set in a harsh climate with two blistering suns, created by a bored immortal, The Darkslayer brings to light everything a fan of science fiction fantasy could hope for, including the full buffet of monsters and races such as giants, dragons, dwarves, orcs, ogres, underlings and worst of all god-like beings that are unpredictable.
Give this action packed short story a try, that is only a taste of two full lengths series that are over16 books and one million words long. 

My Review: Another free book which series I will not be continuing.
          This is only a prequel so you don’t really get much but it is supposed to make you want to read the series and it failed, for me at least.
          The Darkslayer goes off on a journey to kill the Underlings who are these terrible creatures that will kill anything that gets in their way.

Reading, Loss and Depression

I know this isn't a book related post and I wasn't going to post this but I felt that I should as I want to keep you all informed as to why I have been quiet and to help people who are suffering like I am.

My dad passed away at the beginning of the month. He was my everything. Always there when I needed him and the only one I ever wanted when I was ill. He went into hospital the day before Fathers Day with pneumonia and he was getting better and he came home after two weeks but the pneumonia must not have cleared as that what he died of.

My dad's death has hit me hard, |I might not be showing it on the outside but its been affecting me mentally and emotionally, as well as having to sort through my dads things (which my mum, sister and brother-in-law have mainly done while I babysat my niece and nephew), and having to deal with my older brother calling constantly, I just haven't felt like reading but my dad wouldn't want me to sit and just eat junk and watch T.V, he would want me to keep reading and get ready for when my course starts in October so I am going to start reading again, I haven't decided what I'm going to read yet but I am going to look on my kindle and pick something even if it is less that 100 pages just to get me back into reading again as I don't want to fall further into my hole of depression.

With all that has been going on and with my course starting soon I am not going to reach my Goodreads challenge this year, currently I am on 16/35 making me 6 behind my goal.

Just a quick note: If you are suffering from depression please seek help as you are NOT alone, more people than you know suffer from depression and 90% of those people suffer in silence because they feel that they cannot talk to someone, I would still be suffering even more than I am now if some friends hadn't suggested I go and see my GP and if an old school teacher hadn't have made the call for me to see my GP.

Approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year. In England, 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (such as anxiety and depression) in any given week.

Review - Man's Best Alibi by Tara Meyers


Man's Best Alibi (Secrets of Sanctuary Cozy Mysteries Book 2)Title: Mans Best Alibi

Synopsis: Something strange is happening in the mountains of Sanctuary. 

Veterinarian Ember Burns makes a grisly discovery and it leads authorities to the body of a man in the woods above her home. Although the circumstances are suspicious, the only witness is her dog and the death's ruled a suicide. 


But things aren't that simple. When Ember looks into the man's local connections, it creates more questions than answers. Including the source of an unusual rock, and what he was really doing in the mountains. 


As a mysterious illness sickens the local animals, Ember's battle to save them leads to a startling discovery. She races to prove both the cause of the animals' symptoms and how the man died, but will it be too late?


My Review: I had been waiting for this book since finishing the first one, so much so that I often sent Ms Meyers messages asking when it was going to be out -along with other books in her series- and I was happy when she messaged to tell me the beta was ready.

Man's Best Alibi starts off with Ember wondering where Deanerys is as she has been missing a while. When Deanerys finally comes home she brings Ember a gift, but it's not a gift anyone would want, she brings back a glove with a hand inside.

Obviously Embers curiosity streak kicks in and she asks Nathan and Sheriff Walker if she can go along with them, the search and rescue team and the sent dog to find out where Deanerys found the hand.

This story is quite sad compared to the last one as the body part belonged to Deanerys' owner and a lot of animals end up really sick or dead and its all down to the man who's death is ruled a suicide.

Ember want's to find out if it was a suicide or not as she want's to know if she is going to lose Deanerys.

The plot is good and the characters have progressed since book one.

I loved that Ember got to keep Deanerys  and her relationship progress between Ember and Nathan and I can't wait to see where it leads. I love Mel and Embers friendship especially Mels movie references. I didn't guess who the killer was but when it was revealed I remembered something that had happened previously and I could have kicked myself for not putting it together.

The only thing lacking from this story was there were no flirty scenes with Aunt Becky and the Sheriff, I did love those in book one, so here's hoping to some more Becky and Ben mischief in book three.

Review - The Beast with no Beauty by Jamie Campbell


The Beast with No Beauty (Fairy Tales Retold, #6)
Title: The Beast with no Beauty
Author: Jamie Campbell
Series: Fairy Tales Retold
Pages: 43
Release Date: February 13th 2013
Genre: Fantasy
Publisher: 
Source: Amazon
Format: eBook
Buy it: Amazon
Add it: Goodreads

Synopsis: History is told from one person’s perspective. Sometimes they don’t get it right.

Cursed by a wicked witch, the Handsome Prince is transformed into a Beast. To break the curse, he must have someone fall in love with him.

Belle, the ordinary girl from the village, stumbles across the poor beast and is captured in his castle.

Can the prince make Belle fall in love with him to break the curse? Or will she see through his beastly exterior to the ugly prince inside?

A charming twist to the story of Beauty and the Beast, told completely from the point of view of the beast himself.

My Review: I love these short story retold fairy tales by Ms Campbell. This one is a spin on Beauty and the Beast and is told from the Beast's point of view.

The Beast is portrayed as a self centered jerk who was more interested in his appearance than actually falling in love with Belle to break the curse.

Although the Beast was a jerk it was a good read and the ending was bittersweet which was nice.

I'd love Ms Campbell to write more of these as there are a lot more fairy tales that could be retold.

Review - Tranquility by Anya Bast


Tranquility (Otherkin, #2)Title: Tranquility

Pages: 46
Release Date: September 9th 2011
Genre: Paranormal Fantasy
Publisher: 
Source: Amazon
Format: Kindle

Add it: Goodreads

Synopsis: Roane leaves the Fury werewolf pack to make room for his brother, Merrick, and his new mate. A natural alpha, there's nowhere Roane can go in wolf country and not stir up trouble. He settles in a town called Tranquility and immediately raises the hackles of the local pack leader.

Even worse, Roane gets one look at Scarlet, the pack leader's sister, and will do anything to possess her. Scarlet tries to resist him, but his touch inflames desire she can barely control. And that means heaps of trouble for both of them.

This short story is a free title, offered by New York Times bestselling author, Anya Bast. Tranquility is part two of a two part series. Fury is the title of part one. These titles are highly erotic and meant for those 18 years or older.

My Review: I read this book as I hoped that Fury the first book would be redeemed but unfortunately it was not, if anything the second instalment was worse than the first.
          This one focuses on Roane who leaves Fury and his pack so that he did not have to fight his brother for Nikki, he moves to Tranquility as he just wants to be a part of a pack again and he falls in love with the new pack leaders Marcus’ sister Scarlet, Marcus does not like this at all.
          As a short story it blows, I read it in less than 20 minutes.
          The two characters have sex and fall in love as well as fighting with his mates brother. It’s a giant snooze fest.

Rag DollTitle: Rag Doll

Synopsis: A fascinating short story about a dream of a lifetime. Jeremy Martell takes his four-year-old son, Todd to search for diamonds.

It isn’t a diamond his young son finds in the Arkansas state park. The park becomes a crime scene.

Crime, sex, and mystery make this a very entertaining read.

My Review: I read this book because it was short and because I accidentally bought it when I was looking for a different book with the same title, I read it because I did not want it to be a waste of money
          A man takes his some diamond mining and ends up being blamed for murdering his girlfriend.
          The storyline is not very believable and it has no excitement that makes you want to keep reading like books are supposed to do.
          For a short story it seems to leave holes throughout which I guess if it was turned into a longer story could be worked on.
