I've Made Friday Week 133

Good Morning everyone!

I hope your week is going well.

The kids are back at school so it's raining 

and cold in the UK.

It's strange getting back to normal.

I really enjoyed Christmas but

it is good to get back to a normal life.

It's my niece's birthday this weekend.

It's her first birthday so we are really excited.

It will be nice to see family.

I finished my infinity scarf

Fingers Crossed Infinity Scarf

I will be releasing the free pattern for you soon.

What do you think?

I'm making it out of the beautiful Regina yarn from Adriafil.

It's 100% Merino Wool.

I haven't finished my Hitchhikers Shawl yet

so you'll have to wait till next week for that one.

I have a bit of a confession now.

I have read quite a few books over Christmas.

I didn't review them before now

as I wanted the time to sit in peace

and concentrate on the reviews.

I read

Ghosts - John Milton 4#

by Mark Dawson

   

The story follows a man called Milton.

He used to be the number one of an assassins group

run by the English Government.

Now he is the number one fugitive wanted by the government.

He wanted to leave the group but no one gets to leave.

You only leave group fifteen one way.

He is arrested in Texas after a bar fight but he is

released by a Russian agent who wants him to work for them.

He now has to play everyone against themselves so that

he can save his friend.

His friend is being held by the Russian's and if he

doesn't save him soon he is likely to die.

I really enjoyed the twists and turns in the story.

The characters are well written and have

a deep meaning to them and there personalities.

I would highly recommend this book. 

Waiting for Wednesday

by Nicci French

Book 3 in the Frieda Klien series

   

This series of books follows a Psychotherapist; Frieda Klein.

I love this series of books.

Frieda's thinking keeps you gripped and adds twists

to the story that most people wouldn't imagine.

Frieda had been attacked in the previous book

and is still healing from the physical and mental side of this.

Her niece introduces her to her friend Ted.

His mum has been recently murdered and the case

hasn't been solved yet.

Frieda ends up entangled in everyting.

Although the police have been told not to use her

services anymore, her friendship with  DCI Karlsson

means that she can help them to find the real killer.

I really enjoyed this book!

So much so that I instantly bought the next book in the series.

I enjoy Frieda's character and the way it pulls

you through the story.

The story grips you and wants you to read more and more.

This is a fantastic series with much more than just

a who done it.

Thursday's Children: 

A Frieda Klein Novel (Frieda Klein Series Book 4)

by Nicci French

   

In this book Frieda Klein has to deal

with a situation in her past that she buried.

She hoped this awful painful memory was finished

but now she has to deal with it.

An ex school friend comes to her because her

daughter is having issues.

Frieda gets to the bottom of the issue

and it turns out that this poor child has

suffered at the same hand as her.

Frieda has to go back to her school days town,

her mum and all the ghosts that come with that.

Frieda has to deal with what is happening now

and what happened in the past.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

The emotions keep you wanting to read more.

You go through the rollercoaster with the characters.

It's a 5 out of 5 for me!

Almost Dead

Dead series book 1

by Rebecca A. Rogers

The basic story is about two teenagers who are involved in a crash.

The teenagers involved are bratts!

They aren't dead yet but they may soon well be.

The story follows their spirits as they try to get

people to see where there bodies are.

In the crash both their cars have gone off a bridge

and they are deep in the revine.

It isn't going to be as easy as they think and time

is running out.

At the start of the story I didn't think I was going to enjoy it

but as the story progressed the quality progressed with it.

The book is a nice easy read and I am sure

the author is just going to get better from here.

Alpha Moon

Silver Moon series 0.5#

by Rebecca A. Rogers

      

The story is set five hundred years ago.

Daciana has had to leave London with her parents.

Her father has lost all their wealth gambling

and she has to leave her priviledged life behind her.

Before she leaves her maid predicts her downfall.

They move to Colchester where she meets

brothers Alaric and Ulric.

They are working tirelessly on their fathers farm

to keep it going and keep enough food coming in

for them and their father.

Then the unthinkable happens.

The werewolf has follewed Daciana to Colchester

and now hunts her.

Whilst they are hunting the werewolf with the other

town members Daciana and Ulric are attacked.

They are bitten and destined to become werewolves.

Ulric thinks that he can save them using a witches cure

but it turns out to be a curse.

I really enjoyed this book and couldn't wait to read the

next book in the series.

I love the fact that Rebecca researched the language

so that when the characters spoke they spoke

as they would then.

The characters have enough about them and draw you

into the story.

I loved the fact that although Ulric and Alaric were brothers

they each had enough about their characters to be

able to see the differences in them.

I would of liked a bit more about the past to get them where

they were, especially Alaric.

Overall good read and leaves you wanting to find out

what happens.

Silver Moon 

(Silver Moon, #1)

by Rebecca A. Rogers

   

Candra should be enjoying this time in her life.

She is turning 18 in a few months.

However she has been getting in lots of trouble at home

and her parents make the difficult decision

to send her to her Aunt's and Uncle's.

This is where her life is turned upside down!

She is about to become a werewolf

but it isn't just that simple.

Two families are fighting and she is at the center

of the fight.

Someone is also Stalking her, both in life and in her dreams.

She doesn't know who it is or what they want.

This is a well written story.

There are really good elements that bring the story

together and a really good book in the series.

You are left wanting to know what happens and wanting

to read more.

It's a really easy read and enough about it to keep you interested.

I'm looking forward to reading more in the series.
