Trust Me novel

Tech Smart Technology Magazine Publication
Now if this technology magazine actually cost anything, I would honestly say that it was true value for money, but the fact that it is completely free constitutes my acclaiming it as true value for time instead.
The Tech Smart technology magazine is something I look forward to picking up …

The Gipsy Prophecy by Bram Stoker
Most of Bram Stokers stories are about death and horror. The Gipsy Prophecy is similar to this, but has a twist at the end that makes it slightly different from the rest.

Sins of Omission book
Allen Synge’s extremely well researched book, “Sins of Omission”, is subtitled “The Story of the Test Selectors 1899 - 1990″, from which you will probably infer (and correctly so) that it is about cricket. In particular, it concentrates on those players who for various reasons - some of them …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Encounter at Farpoint Novelization

Yoshi’s Story: Survival Guide by Sandwich Islands Publishing
Yoshi’s Story: Survival Guide by Sandwich Islands Publishing should not even be called a survival guide really because this game is ridiculously easy to survive! I think it might be harder to lose at this game than it is to win! The silly name aside, this is very interesting …

Blasphemy by Douglas Preston book
I wasn’t too sure what exactly this book was about —“ except a super computer (super collider) —“ but it turned out to be a pretty interesting story. Maybe “Brimstone” was more exciting, but this one has a better, clearer message inside it (I read this book right after …

The Return, M/M novel by Brad Boney
The Return is a really especial book, and I don’t say that lightly. This is a book in the M/M genre (beware!) that has a mystic touch to its plot that makes it incredibly unique. If you’re passionate about music and if you haven’t given this genre an opportunity …

Blood Bound, Mercy Thompson Series, Book Two
I love the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs. I didn’t think I was going to get into it as much as I have because the idea of an anti-feminine heroine didn’t really appeal to me. Mercy is a mechanic and a kind of nobody in the shape shifting …
Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones
The first thing to realize about Jones’s books is that they’re actually quite hard to understand. Every time I re-read her books, I’d find out something new which I had missed before. Therefore, it is important to read her books ‘carefully’.
About Howl’s Moving Castle, I’m sure some of you …

Clarice Bean Spells Trouble is another book about Clarice Bean by Lauren Child. While I haven’t read the other books, like Clarice Bean, Utterly Me and Clarice Bean, That’s Me, each book seems to have a different plot and adventure. These are fun books for kids aged 7-10 who …
