All The Dead Shall Weep, a Gunnie Rose Novel by Charlaine Harris

 All The Dead Shall Weep This is book 5 of Charlaine Harris's Gunnie Rose series.  I have been reading Harris' work for decades. Netgalley kindly provided me with an ARC for review. Usually, when I finish a book, I can write a review fairly quickly. After finishing All the Dead Shall Weep, I was left thinking: "what was that? What do I say?" I decided to put it aside, reread it, and go from there. The book easily withstood a second reading within weeks of the first. In other words, it is an interesting enjoyable read. Unlike the earlier books, this one really was "an installment". The reading experience was very much "This is happening, and then suddenly this, and then suddenly this...What is Going On!?" Unlike the earlier books, events occur around Rose's settlement, so we see more interactions with Gunnie Rose, her family and the people around her. We also enjoy her and Felicia getting to know each other, and learning to work with and around ...

Perfectly Mismatched (Pine Wood Falls #4)

Perfectly Mismatched by Sarah Havan My rating: 3 of 5 stars The content warnings for this one include sexual assault and prolonged ("natural") childbirth scenes. Pay attention to these warnings. The alpha in this one was pretty awful, as they so often are in this series.  Broadly speaking, the world-building of the entire series has been pretty good.  Again, the pregnancy and relationship development progress in parallel.

This book includes an awful shouty family (who are amoung the good guys, not the vilains). In this series the characters are all very pro "natural birth" by which they mean childbirth without pain killers and the minimum of medical intervention. The childbirth workers such as the doula, nurses, midwives and doctors are all cheerfully n...

Time To Shine by Rachel Reid

 I loved this book.  I asked Netgalley for this review copy because I have loved Rachel Reid's other hockey books. I am very glad I did! Having said that, this book has a very different "feel" from her game-changers books. As another reviewer has said, this world is much kinder and less homophobic than the world in that other series.  The two characters are well-rounded and absolutely delightful. If Reid wrote another book with them just talking about the phone book, (showing my age here) I'd pounce right on it. I hope she writes more books in this world, and that these guys appear in it.  She did something very difficult: she wrote a successful, sweet and touching romance between two guys with quite different sexualities and very other very real issues.  Reid knows her ice hockey. Recently there have been a plethora of ice-hockey romances where the author clearly had little engagement with the sport. Reid is not one of those authors.
