10 Reasons Why You Should Read “The Girl Who Walked in the Shadows"

By ChaoticNinja

Third book in the series. Tough to review but e arly reviewers have already raved about it here , here , here , and here .  Not that you need more convincing, but instead of a review, I'm giving you my Top 10 reasons why you should read "The Girl Who Walked in the Shadows " by Marnie Riches . 1.    Confident writing. So confident it can be brutal. You know, the in-your-face kind of brutal that leaves a black eye in the morning. Get some ice. 2.    Bursting at the seams with fascinating and flawed characters:  from the morally ambiguous to the sordidly immoral to the sexually fluid to the emotionally crippled. (The author could be talking about my family, but I digress.) 3.    Unrelenting suspense. So tense that you might find your heart fibrillating. Okay, that may be a tad too much, but it can happen, yes? 4.    Reading it is like assembling the most difficult jigsaw puzzle while playing “Where’s Wally”. (And since this is an international crim

REVIEWS: Kindle Ninja Reads More Chick Lit - Part 2

By ChaoticNinja

  I wrote the first part of this 2-part Chick Lit review three months ago for International Women's Day .  I didn't provide an explanation on what brought this on, so, let me just do that now. Chick Lit is a much-derided literary genre and yet it's embraced by millions of readers, largely the female kind. I don't pretend to know how the genre came into existence, but I vaguely remember the genre gaining prominence at the time of the publication of Helen Fielding's "Bridget Jones Diary" . Since then, there were a multitude of writers who went the chick lit route; some were successful, while others disappeared into obscurity. The genre continues to be criticized for the perceived superficiality of the topics and themes.   After reading these books (7 of them), I can safely say that, yes, there are recurring themes and situations that are common in these books. That's not necessarily a bad thing. It's what makes chick lit book a chi

KINDLE NINJA: TWO REVIEWERS, ONE BOOK - LOVING NATE by Janice G. Ross

By ChaoticNinja

Two Reviewers, One Book. When time allows, I invite a reviewer, blogger, author, or random character to sit with me in this very comfortable couch   and share our views (opposing or otherwise) on a book we've chosen. There’s no method to this madness. We just let things run their course. My special guest is  Marlena Hand ,  a prolific reviewer with over 50 books reviewed in Amazon and elsewhere (I’m not worthy!). She is also the Secretary at Rave Reviews Book Club . The book is “Loving Nate” by Janice G.Ross , RRBC’s Spotlight Author in April. Synopsis: Loving Nate is Leah's story of falling in love with Mr. Perfect. Leah falls fast and hard, losing all sense of reasoning. Love can do that to a gal, especially when the guy is as smooth as Nathan Moore. Loving Nate is about Leah's journey of falling in love, when she should have been standing in love.   Kindle Ninja (KN): How do you like the new couch, Marlena?  Marlena

Episode 8: Conversations over Milk & Cookies - Katie Hayoz

Don't panic! All the EPISODES of Conversations over Milk & Cookies can be found HERE .  Or you can just look to your right (no, your other right) and you'll find the Quick Links . **** Welcome to Episode 8 of  Conversations over Milk & Cookies  hosted by Kindle Ninja. What is this madness, you ask?  It's my way of supporting authors and writers from the  RAVE REVIEWS BOOK CLUB .  We interact with them everyday, directly through tweets, or indirectly through re-tweets, but we don't really know much about them. Their personalities really don't shine through in tweets and re-tweets. In Episodes 1 to 6 , some of the Board Members of Rave Reviews Book Club were featured. Episodes 7 to XXX   feature the non-Board members. In this episode, I managed to locate Author  Katie Hayoz ( @katiehayoz ) and her secret popcorn stash at a bank vault in Geneva. Let's get to know Katie in more than 140 words, shall we? KINDLE NINJA (KN):

Reviews: The Short of It

By ChaoticNinja

Been playing catch up with reading and reviewing. I’m 33 books behind schedule. Goodreads said so.  Why should I care about what Goodreads say? You see, I joined the 2015 Reading Challenge and pledged to read 80 books, which translates to 6.66 books per month (I’m glad I’m not superstitious).   Easy peasy, right?  No.  It’s September and I’m still struggling to get halfway through the challenge. I’m still convinced I could do it, but I’m going to need a strategy of some sort.   I realised that I could probably pull this one off by reading all the short stories and novellas on my TBR list. It’s not cheating. Just slightly devious planning. The Memory Man by Helen Smith Two women, memory loss, a dead man, and a psychic. Everything else are fragments. This is a bizarre story that I quite frankly did not get the first time I read it. So I had to read it again. I like to believe I got it the second time around. Or probably not. It’s like the movie “Inception”. People thi
