Review: Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin

Serpent & Dove  by  Shelby Mahurin My rating:  5 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! Holy Moly!!! What a fantastic book! SERPENT & DOVE by Shelby Mahurin has been on my TBR shelf for a while. I am happy I finally picked it up and read it. A story that includes, witches, religious zealous, and witch hunters can only be a great one. Add a few French sentences and you have a perfect combination in my opinion. Louise has been in hiding for a while. She knows that if the white witch discovers where she is, her life will be ended. Reid, a chasseur, has made a vow to hunt and kill witches. When unusual circumstances force them to get married, it is the beginning of a cat and mouse match. Louise must protect her secret and Reid must do what he does best: hunt witches. After the white witch finds her, Louise will face her biggest challenges and Reid will have to confront his heart. Will he chase Louise or save her? #readwithrovergroup #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poo...

Review: The Wife Who Knew Too Much by Michele Campbell

The Wife Who Knew Too Much  by  Michele Campbell My rating:  3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! THE WIFE WHO KNEW TO MUCH by Michele Campbell was a strange read. The beginning was remarkably interesting and promised a great read, but the middle was slow and became a bit repetitive. I am glad I persevere to the end because what started like a lamb, finished like a lion. What an ending!!! Not my favourite by this awesome author but still a great read if you are patient. 🙋🏼‍♀️ Thank you, St. Martin’s Press for sending me an ARC of this exciting novel. THE WIFE WHO KNEW TOO MUCH by Michele Campbell is now available at your favourite bookstore. #readwithrovergroup #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bi...

Review: The Last Train to Key West by Chanel Cleeton

The Last Train to Key West  by  Chanel Cleeton My rating:  5 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! The Last Train to Key West by Chanel Cleeton is a fantastic historical novel. This is the third novel by this wonderful author I have the pleasure to read. Ms. Cleeton does not disappoint. Her thorough historical research is evident in her books. In this one, she covers the 1935 hurricane that devastated the Florida Keys. It was the worst hurricane in US history. People were warned only two days before it hit lands, not enough time to prepare. Over 500 people lost their lives, most of them were veterans from the Great War who were living in the most rudimental camps. I invite you to Google the 1935 Hurricane and find out more about what happened. In this historical book, Ms. Cleeton delivers a moving and edge-of-your-seat novel about three women whose lives will intertwine during this major event. I don’t want to give too much away because it is a book that everyone should read....

Review: Tavi Tails - The Diary of a Dog: Life Through the Eyes of a Master Human Trainer by Tavi Richman

Tavi Tails - The Diary of a Dog: Life Through the Eyes of a Master Human Trainer  by  Tavi Richman My rating:  4 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! Tavi Tails: The Diary of a Dog by Tavi and Lisa Richman was a delight to read. This is the story of Tavi, told in his words. It is fun and so interesting to see how Tavi discovers everything from his own perspective. I love the words he used to name some of the objects around him: “the bad door” which is used by his parents to go to work, the “Goforaride” which is used for the car, the “big water bowl” which is used for any large bodies of water. It is a fun read, no sad ending guaranteed. If you love dogs, you will love this book. Thank you, Tavi and Lisa Richman, for sending me a copy of your wonderful book. Tavi Tails is available at your favourite bookstore. #readwithrovergroup #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstag...
