Sorry for the confusion......

 

I want to apologize for all the back and forth about the books that are for sale. With so many books so post I am trying to find the easiest and best way to post them all. The Books For Sale page just wasn't cooperating with the html for some reason and so that has been removed. I had also tried adding a shop to the Facebook page and many of the books were not getting approved. Why, well because Facebook does what it wants I guess. I would have loved to be able to open a physical bookshop, but it's just not something that is going to happen anytime soon.

The final answer about what to do came down to creating a group on Facebook - 

Read N’ Reviews Virtual Bookstore

If you'd don't have Facebook (say whaaat) and want to get a list of books available please reach out to me and I'll see what I can do to get you one.

Length - 7 hrs 20 min

*Amazon Blurb*

When Cammie Morgan arrives at her friend Macey's five star hotel for the Democratic National Convention - where Macey's father is about to receive the vice presidential nomination - she thinks she's in for an exciting end to her summer break. But if you're a Gallagher Girl, "exciting" and "deadly" are never far apart. Things quickly go south when Macey is summoned to the hotel roof to shoot a PR piece with the presidential candidate's son. But instead of cameras, attackers descend from a helicopter and swarm the girls, commanding, "Grab her." After a narrow escape, Cammie and Macey find themselves at a top secret hideout owned by the Gallagher Academy...and thus begins Cammie's junior year at spy school. Cammie doesn't need her genius IQ to see that the kidnapping attempt has changed everything, especially now that Macey is a major celebrity, and the school has been besieged by news crews. More disturbing, Cammie can't shake the suspicion that her mom and Mr. Solomon know more about the attack than they're letting on. After all, why weren't the attackers surprised to find themselves in combat with two teenage girls who handled themselves like seasoned pros? But these suspicions won't stop Cammie from jumping at the chance to join Bex and Liz as Macey's private security team on the campaign trail. Before long, the girls are using their espionage skills at every turn, as Cammie gets closer and closer to the shocking truth...

*My Review* 
 
Here's to another book that I started without realizing it was part of a series. I think I have learned my lesson this time, or at least I hope so. I had a hard time following along. There are a lot of characters, which had I read the previous books, I'm sure I would have been able to keep up.

There was so much going on that I wasn't sure who the main character was, is it Macey or is it Cammie? Is Macey acting different that usual (again the previous books probably would've helped here)? I was really just lost the entire time, but like always, I persevered in finishing, honestly in hopes that I'd eventually figure it all out.


If you're someone who likes to start at the beginning of a series and read all of it (unlike me, haha) here is the full Gallagher Girls series, available on Amazon.

Work in progress




The Books For Sale page is still a work in progress. Many of the links have chosen to not work which will require me to go in and manually fix each one. In the meantime, I have added many books and am working on getting the prices listed for each. If you are interested in one that has a broken button or no button at all just send an email.

I will also try and get some more book reviews up. I've still got quite a few to catch up on including on for The Orphan Collector by Ellen Marie Wiseman!

I also have a lot of Dean Koontz, John Grisham and Stephen King books that will be going up.
