Review of ALL OF ME

ALL of ME

The Bridesmaid Club

LEEANNA MORGAN


Review by Author Roy Murry

 




Tess, an ex-model, owns a small-town cafe after a traumatic event that still possesses her. Logan, a veteran war reporter, moves to the town and, for a year, is smitten by her.

She does not like reporters. At this point, the educated reader knows they'll get together. Each has its horror stories that collide in the relationship that lead to confrontations.

Romance lovers will love the characters, but the storyline has too many backstory gaps, which they will overlook. However, these genre lovers will enjoy the tit for tat of Tess and Logan's relationship and forgive the holes in the story.

Because ALL OF ME is well-written with interesting characters, I recommend it to all Romance Lovers, using Kindle, to read the series. All others beware.

Review of SAGE ADVICE

SAGE ADVICE

Lives and Maxims of Some 

of History's Wisest People

 

RICHARD K. BORDEN

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

SAGE ADVICE is a collection of thoughts for the INQUISITIVE MIND. These thoughts or maxims make your mind go into a tailspin.

From Ptah-Hotep of Egypt to Gandhi, eighteen of Borden's wisest people’s short biographies and advice in thoughtful phrases are well organized. Fortunately, the book layout divides the bio from the maxims giving the reader the luxury of not being confused or trying to know who said what.

With each biography, the reader will see the evolution in thoughts over the thousands of human existences. The maxims, if read slowly, quietly, and separately, will lead the reader to self-evaluation – always a good thing.

You don't need to be a philosophy or a psychologist to read SAGE ADVISE. However, you should be a thoughtful person with an Inquisitive Mind a la Murry's Readers Are Leaders.

A well-written collection.

Review of TAPAS



Tapas, Carrot Cake, and A Corpse

A Charlotte Denver Cozy Mystery, Bk 1

 SHERRI BRYAN

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

TAPAS is the first cozy mystery series where Charlotte lives, and she owns a restaurant in a small oceanside town. A dead body lies on a luxury yacht docked not far from her eatery, where the locals and tourists gather.

Not only is Charlotte an excellent chef, she understands people.  Without trying, she is sleuthing by observation.

The owners of the yacht are suspects of Charlotte's detective friend but have alibis. So how did the death happen?

The information gathered by Charlotte daily leads to an exciting ending on the restaurant's patio at a celebration. The locals, the detective, the tourist, and the reader get a surprise that only is found in a cozy mystery.

Well written and enjoyable. Get a Cozy Mystery Novel which is always pleasant reads.

Review of PURE



PURE

Pure Series: Book 1

 

CATHERINE MESICK

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Mysterious unnatural events control this dramatic novel. Katie, a young USA high school girl, describes her daily life, which turns disastrous, leading her guardian grandmother to decide to return to Katie's birth country immediately - Russia.

But, the suspense does not stop there. Katie's nemesis follows her back to Kyiv. But, she is the Pure one, and it is not.

She has William, her savior, with who she has a teen crush. He has been in the background helping Katie with her conflicts back at high school. But what is he?

The story ends with a clash of good against evil in the castle near the PURE WOODS. Dramatic but predictable.

Ms. Mesick's writing is 'straightforward and fast pace' at times. However, the lulls in the story outweighed them.

But, because of the exciting storyline, which includes vampires and a first love encounter by Katie, I believe it is an excellent Young-Adult series. I recommend the series as so.

Buy the Series and enjoy it, Young Adult.

Review of The POWER of Your Subconscious Mind



The POWER of Your Subconscious Mind

 

JOSEPH MURPHY


Review by Author Roy Murry

 

I started reading this book in 2008 and pick it up every day to remind me that life goes on and I can change how I see it. Murphy's book did change my life; I will not go into details of how.

But this book, combined with ‘How to Be Idle,’ can do that for you.

See review: https://bit.ly/2UVt81K.

It would take all day for me to explain what I mean. YOU NEED TO READ THESE BOOKS.

Murphy goes into detail on how our human minds work and how we use them. What we read, think, and profess goes into our subconscious mind and stays there.

You can change what goes in your mind by following proven methods given within. Do it today before it’s too late.

A computer maximum is "Garbage in; Garbage Out," and according to this book, the same is for your subconscious mind. So, therefore, I agree with Joseph Murphy 100%.

That is why I recommend this brilliant book.

Review of ALL THE GOOD GIRLS



ALL THE GOOD GIRLS

 

WILLOW ROSE

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 


Because of his family situation and his lack of due diligence, Harry Hunter is the bodyguard of a possible target after the murder of several girls. His unorthodox investigation from an out-side-the box position is not believable.

 Although 'Girls' is well written and starts with an exciting plot, this mystery storyline did not keep me engaged. Also, the ending is not believable and did not entice me to read the second book in the series.

This novel is my second by Willow Rose, and I will most likely read another. but not in this series.

Review of Marin's Promise

 


Marin's Promise

 

MADELINE MARTIN

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Two worlds collide in this Romance Novel. Marin is head of a wealthy aristocrat family while her father is away at war against the Scottish.  

Brad's world is that of fighting from the bottom up to reach a criminal life of wandering. But, first, he must take Marin's family castle to save his sister from hanging.

Marin and her four sisters present many problems for Brad after he tricks his way into the castle. Little by little, Brad falls for Marin even though she tries to kill him.

One thing leads to another, including a battle with Brad's cohorts in crime. Finally, Marin promises marriage to Brad, who must put his life on the line to enjoy a life-changing position.

Throughout the time Brad communicates with Marin; each has secretly desired the other. Those consummated desires lead to an explosive ending.

The writing is superb, and the characters believable. My only negative is that a few sex scenes are erotica. But, if you can overlook that, it's an adventurous romance you should read.
