Review of Traitors Among Us by S.R. Claridge

Many popular writers will tell you the first sentence of a novel is the most important; it should hook the reader right away. In fact, I’ve heard that Stephen King actually collects excellent first lines from other writers via his website. Well, if so, S.R. Claridge should send him the first line of TRAITORS AMONG US because it does just that: snares you immediately. Having recently read TETTERBAUM’S TRUTH, the first in this author’s “Just Call Me Angel” series, I was elated to find I was…

Review of Tetterbaum's Truth by S.R. Claridge

If you like a strong female lead in a mystery/suspense, then you’ll fall in love with Angel, the protagonist of TETTERBAUM’S TRUTH. She’s one gutsy woman dealing with multiple threats on her life and she rises to the challenge with courage and spunk. I found one page melting into the next in this fast-paced novel; it’s extremely well written and easy to read. Nothing is as it seems and just when you think you’ve got a handle on the good and bad guys, the plot somersaults. And even though…

Review of Possoons by Rachelle Rogers

Rachelle Rogers has produced a heterogeneous collection of short stories that will entertain and amuse readers from beginning to end.

In a few sentences we see deep into the psyche and the hearts of the people in the story. Whether happy or sad, grieving or rejoicing, the reader becomes part of the story through empathy and…
