I picked up The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller because it was picked for me by Alexa. Lex and I have pretty similar reading tastes and yet I still was a little skeptical going in.

ARC Review: The Forgotten Home Child by Genevieve Graham *Stephanie’s Review*
This was it. This was the one. The Forgotten Home Child by Genevieve Graham is what landed her on my auto-buy list of authors.

I definitely admired Pete Banning for the amazing things that he did […]
