The Coven is book one in the Coven of Bones series and ends on a cliffhanger. If the ghosts of Hollow’s Groves’ victims don’t kill them first. Because for the first time in fifty years, the Coven will open its wards to the Thirteen: thirteen promising students destined to change the world. No one talks about the bloody massacre that forced it to close decades prior, only the opportunity it can afford to those fortunate enough to attend. But that doesn’t mean secrets don’t threaten to tear the school in two. The only animosity I face comes from the beautiful and infuriating Headmaster, Alaric Grayson Thorne, a man who despises me just as much as I loathe him and everything he stands for. No condemnation for the blood that flows through my veins. My duty forces me to the secret town of Crystal Hollow and the prestigious Hollow’s Grove University-where the best and brightest of my kind learn to practice their magic free from human judgment. Raised to be my father’s weapon against the Coven that took away his sister and his birthright, I would do anything to protect my younger brother from suffering the same fate.

It can’t be the author b/c the back cover is a crock of crap. But Isobel knows all too well that looks can be deceiving…and that’s what she’s counting on to keep her cover in this international masquerade of murder. Now it looks as if he’s tracked her down for revenge. Seventeen years ago Isobel shot him and left him for dead. But Isobel’s past and present are about to collide when Serafin, mercenary, assassin and the most dangerous man in the world, makes a deal with The Committee. But beneath Isobel’s cool exterior a ghost exists, haunting her with memories of another life…a life that ended long ago. The powerful head of the covert mercenary organization The Committee, Isobel Lambert is a sleek, sophisticated professional who comes into contact with some of the most dangerous people in the world. The main character, Sam, was really irritating. There were times when I hated, times when I loved it, times it made me sad, times I was frustrated by it. I went through so many different emotions as I read it. In fact, Sam lives the last day of her life seven times, until she realizes that by making even the slightest changes, she may hold more power than she ever imagined.Īfter I finished reading this book I really had no idea how I would approach writing a review for it.

The whole wide world is opening quickly for Yula. And once Yula can manage, Mum takes her to a school for orphans and leaves. She cares for Yula in the warmth and safety of her home.

A STONE IS A STORY, by Leslie Barnard Booth, goes straight to that emotional core by narrating the story of a stone as it is crushed and carved, squeezed and scorched. I can attest that stones do elicit emotional responses. "What child doesn't, from time to time, pick up a stone, admire it, attach to it? As a lover of rocks from a young age. Thanks to them, she's relearned what children seem to know intuitively: that every snail, stone, and clump of moss is full of wonder, if only we take the time to look. She learns a lot from watching how they approach nature-the way they pause, crouch, and look closely at even the littlest, humblest creatures. She is now a mom to two daughters, and her children often inspire her creative work. Leslie grew up in Washington State, among giant trees and rugged mountains, and as a child her pockets were always full of rocks. She has taught at preschool, elementary, and college levels, and holds an MFA in creative writing and an MS in education from the University of Oregon.
