Heaven Official's Blessing is a captivating continuation of the series, delving into the past of main character Xian Lien we discover new secrets and connections that and surprise everyone. Although excited for the conclusion of the series I'm sad about having only one novel of this beautiful story left to read.

book cover


Hepworth has never disappointed me and this book is no exception. In this story, a young girl loses her family and is put in with a foster mother. Although she is devastated at the loss of her parents, the foster mother seems nice and they become very close. But when the young girl starts school and makes friends there, friends other than her foster mother, things change dramatically. Then other foster children come to live with them, and things for all the children get much worse. It’s a fictional story, but the issues are those of the modern day foster care system. A troubling but gripping read.

But all that changes after a home invasion gone wrong that leaves one of them clinging to life. Ava keeps coming back to the thought that her family weren't random victims, but targeted for some reason, but why? As details about the family's finances come to light, Ava now wonders if what the police are saying, including Sheriff Nate Carmichael, Ava's high school boyfriend, is true - could someone in her family have been behind the entire thing? When the lies are uncovered, Ava discovers that the only thing worse than the lies is the truth, including the secrets she's been keeping and the lies she's told to keep them buried.

Mcglue

book cover


After reading this entire book, I still have no idea what it was about. The central character, McGlue, is always drunk, though it's not clear why. He is befriended by Johnson, who he ends up killing. Again, it is not clear why. There is lots of time at sea, and ultimately lots of time in jail. The narration is first person and much, if not most of it, makes no sense. I got nothing out of the book and would not recommend it.

That Time of Year

book cover


The was a bizarre book. The plot is that a couple from Paris spends all their summers in a small French country town, but they never stay one day past August 31. Then one year, they decide to stay an extra day and the wife and son go missing. It’s supposed to be a horror or psychological thriller, but I just did not get that from the book. It me it just came off as strange. I think the issue for me is that because everyone’s behavior is strange, even the abandoned husband’s and there was no normal standard at all in this town, it did not come off for me as scary. I would recommend something else.

77 Shadow Street

book cover


What if the apartment building you lived in, at certain times, became a portal to the past, letting those who have died and those who have killed them, into your home. This is the premise for this story. What is nice about it is that the author does a good job of first developing the characters and then keeping them distinct, which for the number of characters he has here, is not an easy job. I did find the book interesting, but I am not a fan of Sci-fi /fantasy and so I did not love it.
