Pitch: By Will Parkinson.

Before I start, I think I’m supposed to say I received an advance copy in exchange for this review. Okay, legal disclosure over. Now a couple disclaimers – I don’t review a lot of books, mostly because there is an art to doing them, and especially in doing them well, so If I don’t do the book justice, my apologies to Will.  I don’t ‘rate’ books with stars or smiles, or kisses or hearts. I just give my opinions. Last, I don’t read a lot of YA – it’s not usually my cuppa – so again, I might not ‘know’ all the trends. Pitch had it’s initial appeal to me because I love baseball. But my love of baseball doesn’t mean …

Review by Mrs. Condit and Friends Read Books of Purpose

Mrs. Condit & Friends Read Books – Review of Purpose Posted by Lucky on July 25, 2013 Someone died tonight. An innocent. Someone who should have lived. I felt their death. I feel the innocents who die. They call out for vengeance. GENRE: M/M RATING: 5 Sweet Peas! “This is the beginning of an incredible adventure from the mind of Andrew Q. Gordon, who I first met when I did the review for (Un)Masked where he teamed up with Anyta Sunday. The blurb grabbed me and held me tight. The story did the same.” Read the full review on Mrs. Condit & Friends Read Books:

Mel’s Review of Purpose

This review really captured what I was hoping to achieve with the book. Reprinted with permission of the reviewer. Mel’s Review Posted on Goodreads July 2, 2013 5 Stars Link: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/647506474 When I was 2/3 of the way through this book, if you had asked me what I thought of it, I would have said it was a very nicely written character driven novel. The focus was primarily on the two MCs and their developing relationship. Ryan is down on his luck; thrown out on the streets by his family because he’s gay. Gar (Will) saves Ryan from street thugs intent on robbing and killing him. Gar has never intervened in a crime in progress before… his usual gig is seeking vengeance …

Purpose: Review by Zipper Rippers

Purpose by Andrew Q. Gordon M/M Supernatural/Paranormal Dreamspinner Press 5 Stars “This is one of the most original books I’ve ever read. I don’t think I’ve read anything quite like this before.” “It’s a gritty, sometimes dark story, but always gripping and you keep reading wanting to know what happens next. I don’t want to say too much else in case I spoil it, but it was a wonderful, engaging read.” Read Annette’s complete review on Zipper Rippers: Purpose: By Andrew Q. Gordon

Review: Captive Heart, By Tali Spencer

There are so many things to like about this book – but perhaps the best part is that it’s part of a series. I don’t usually stay up late on work nights – especially when I have to be in court the next day, but this had me up every night until I finish. If you like fantasy, read this book.  It’s not a M/M Romance, but so what – it is a great book, read it! Gaspar is the Emperor of Uttor, an up and coming nation that has most of the other kingdoms wary.  Sebboy is an old, powerful kingdom on the decline.  When the Prince of Sebboy kidnaps Gaspar’s beloved sister, that sets the stage for what’s …

Review: Plan B: By SJD Peterson

I probably haven’t said this before, but I only review books I like. Not all the books I like, just some and only when I get the time to write them up. I probably have at least a half dozen books I want to review, so this is a good place to start. I bought this book because I saw a good review of it and it was a top seller. [The cover is kinda hot too] It did not disappoint. For me, a character driven story is so important. I most enjoy stories where the author has breathed life into their characters, where the characters leap off the page and I feel like I’m reading about the real adventures of a …

Lily’s Reviews: The Last Grand Master

 Lily’s Reviews Posted May 3, 2013 Review:  I really loved everything about this book from the storyline to the characters to the dialogue. Mr. Gordon has a gift for descriptiveness that I greatly enjoyed.  I think my favorite is the endless pocket – regarding which I have just one question: Where can I find one outside of the book?  I also like the idea behind Haven, if not the need within the world Mr. Gordon created.
