Traitor to the Throne by Alwyn Hamilton is the follow up to Rebel of the Sands. This book is SO MUCH BETTER than the first one. It is not even close! Amani is still her bad-ass self but the other characters are more developed and have a bigger role in this book. The main story line is that a rebellion is underway to overthrow the sultan. The action is good throughout and makes me want a book 3! This is my book of the month so far!

The Great Pursuit by Wendy Higgins is the sequel to The Great Hunt.Aerityand her sister and cousin are amazing in this along with Pax, Tiern, Harrison and Lief and Furball! This is full of adventure, suspense, fighting and romance. The addition of Furball, a beast that was rescued from Rozaria Rocato by Harrison and Aerity, a very entertaining addition.
I loved Furball and how the women insisted he come along and stay at the castle. In this book, I really got invested in the main characters who were very interesting and well developed. The ending was fantastic and I loved how the plot developed and moved along. There were no boring parts in this one for me! I highly recommend this if you want an entertaining read with adventure and romance. I think I will check into the Sweet Evil series by this author as well.

The Great Pursuit by Wendy Higgins picks up where The Great Hunt ended. Princess Aerity is to marry the man who killed the great beast. But can she marry a man she does not love? Soon Lochlanach is in great peril--can the royal family survive?
I thought this book was Fantastic! It has constant action which made this book fly by for me. I never knew what was coming next. I enjoyed all the characters very much! The ending was perfect! I am glad this story was finished in just two books. LOVED IT!

In Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton, Amani is a young girl who wants out of her small town. She will go to great lengths to make sure that happens. She meets Jin in a shouting contest and she sees him as her ticket out of town, but little does she know she is about to go on the adventure of her life!
Amani is a great character who does not take gruff from anybody! There is good action in this book but the last part has new characters introduced that got me a bit confused. That being said, this first book by this author is well worth reading--on to book two!

Tune My Heart to Sing is a collection of 90 devotions on Hymns from Our Daily Bread that is very interesting if you are familiar with hymns. I really enjoyed reading about the background of different ones and as I’d read, the tunes would run through my mind. As you can see from the picture, I marked a lot of pages that had things that stood out to me. I think the scripture index at the back of the book is a helpful addition. I highly recommend this devotional book because they are short, only one page long, but all contain scripture passages related to the hymns.

In Roseblood by A. G. Howard is a retelling of "The Phantom of the Opera." Rune has a very beautiful singing voice, but when she is done singing she gets very ill. Her mom sends her to a French boarding school for the arts in hope that this will fix her. There she is befriended by a young boy named Thorn. What she does not know is that he works for the Phantom who wants Rune for himself. Will the Phantom get Rune or will Thorn go against the Phantom which would mean certain death for him?
