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 ...

The Prodigal Prince's Fake Fiancé

The Prodigal Prince's Fake Fiancé by Thursday Euclid and Clancy Nacht My rating: 2 of 5 stars ...I only kept skimming my way through this because it was free, and I kept waiting to enjoy it?  The authors depict the reality and vulnerability of being a trans guy very well I thought.  I didn't really enjoy this book because it didn't feel like the MCs were enjoying themselves. I was well shown, as a reader, that they were falling in love/were in love with each other, and enjoyed being together, but they were never happy about it. I REALLY did not like all the lying and deception. It's a fake fiancé book, which I knew, but I thought maybe being a couple of very rich people might make up for it. It didn't. There I was, flicking away at 50% of the book (getting that far took me a couple of days) ..."I'm so not enjoying this..." flick flick flick... Spoiler: One MC didn't tell the other anything about his family until 60% into the book. There was so much...

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.
