Quick Review Connected Souls A Dog story; Dana Landers

Hello Fellow Readers,

I bring to you today a quick review of the short book Connected Souls a Dog Story.

If your an animal person you may love this story. Let me give you the first paragraph from the book as it best sums up what this book is about.
'On Feb. 10, a dog named Cujo was surrendered to the Westfield animal shelter. Also on Feb. 10 in a Westfield home, a dog named Codi said his final goodbye to the family he had loved for over 10 years. This is the story of their connected souls.'
I am a sucker for animal stories (my last review said the same thing) so maybe I should just stop saying it? Anyway the begining of this story was so sad, you spend Codi's last moments with his family and even though he is at peace with what is happening you still grieve. Cujo story is sad and while you know the ending will be happy (at least you hope) you still can't help but get mad at Cujo's former owners. I will never know how someone can just give up a pet. It just doesn't make sense to me and it never will.

This book is a quick read and if that's what your looking for I suggest you pick this up.

Fangirl_15; Aimee Roseland

Hello Fellow Readers,

So today I have another book review for you (Courtesy of Netgalley). Today’s review is on Fangirl_15 by Aimee Roseland a new Adult title that was released in June of 2014.

Fangirl_15 Synopsis 

Title: FANGIRL_15
Author: Aimee Roseland
Genre: New Adult; Romance; Fantasy
Publication Date: July 8th, 2014

Chloe is in love with Lucien.
He’s enigmatic, compassionate, generous and intelligent. Likes classical music just as much as kicking ass and knows his way around a kitchen, though he’d never admit it. His Samurai swords are an extension of his personality and a lifetime of heartache has taught him to wield them unfailingly. He’s gorgeous yet humble and can’t see past his own scars. Lucien feels deeply for his chosen family and is absolutely worthy of love.
Sounds perfect, right?
The only problem is that Lucien is a character in a novel.’

Hello Fellow Readers,

So this is the first book from ‘New Adult’ genre that I have read (I actually didn’t even know that it existed before this book). So let me just say right now that I did not expect to love this book, I had picked this because, despite the weird cover and unusual name, the synopsis caught my eye. This book completely enthralled me in some sort of spell so much so that I couldn’t put it down and finished it in two days! It grabbed a hold of my imagination and spoke to the fangirl in me. Roseland’s writing style is witty and with a little quirk that speaks of today’s modern society. The book is full of pop culture references that made me giggle.

Roseland made her main character, Chloe, completely likable. Chloe a recluse who finds herself feeling closer to the characters in her beloved Dark Riders series than anyone in real life finds herself sucked into the book. Most of the time when I read a book like this the characters acts as if this happens to them every day and they don’t have the ‘freak-out’ any normal person would have. Chloe, on the other hand, reacted exactly how I would have reacted.

Overall I highly recommend this book to any daydreaming book lover whose imagination completely runs away with them.
