Book Review: Johannes Cabal the Necromancer by Jonathan L. Howard

Johannes Cabal the Necromancer by Jonathan L. Howard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was recommended this novel by a friend and all it took was three pages for me to be hooked. So when Johannes Cabal, a necromancer or scientist, goes down to hell like a fly MFer and makes Satan a deal: he can get one hundred souls in exchange for his. But he had to do it before the next Walpurgisnacht, or Satan will kill him.

Oh, and did I mention he had to do it by a traveling carnival?

So with his brother Horst Cabal, the Cabal Brothers are out on the road with their devilish carnival, collecting ninety-nine souls, getting rid of a necromancer named Rufus Maleficarus (what kind of name is that anyway?), Johannes getting stuck in the pocket time universe made me giggle a bit, Ratuth Slabuth nearly destroying the carnival because he was bored, then....then they came to Penlow on Thurse on April 29....

A day where I ship Cabal x Leonie because they met and I got happy....

Till the end...when sweet Leonie signed her life away to save her father. But thank god Cabal burned her and another woman's forms so they wouldn't be in Hell when they die. But when Horst burned to death and died because he wanted to save his brother and I was so mad at Johannes...but I got over it when he saved Leonie and Lea (I think that's her name).

So I really do recommend this book because IT'S SO GOOD AND FUN AND YOU'LL HAVE FUN READING IT!!!

Book Haul-5/10/2017

Hey y'all!

Today...today was a good day-did a little shopping and picked up a couple books at Ollie's Bargain Outlet (ya know, that store with the commercial and the line 'Good Stuff Cheap'?) and this is where I found these four books, which was good for me since I really wanted them so badly, even though I only the books from different book series. 

City of Ashes, book two of the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare

This is book two of the Mortal Instruments, and after I got done reading City of Bones, I swore I wouldn't read the whole series. But then seeing them and the new Shadowhunter novels coming out, makes me wanna read them right now. Also, I am thinking of watching the show as well, even though I've only seen one episode of the show on Freeform, and I might wanna watch the whole entire thing...if I can find it on Netflix or watch it on demand. 

City of Heavenly Fire, book six of the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare

So this is the last book of the Mortal Instruments (that's how stocked Ollie's are: they had the first two books and then the last book) and I like the original covers better than the other ones, though the new ones are alright. 

The Hiltons: The True Story of an American Dynasty by J. Randy Taraborrelli

So to balance out the fantasy novels, I thought it's time for me to get a biography-and I'm a sucker for anything fashion-y, historical or facts about someone, so I brought The Hiltons. I've always wanted this book since it came out, and I waited so long to buy it till now. And the good thing is, it only costed 3.99 and it's in hardback, so it'll look perfect on my makeshift bookshelf.

Gathering Darkness: A Falling Kingdoms novel by Morgan Rhodes

Once again, I found a part of a book series that I really really want to read. I fell in love with the cover (as usual because covers make or break the book-well to me anyway) and the person on the cover looks like a rouge and ironically, I play a rouge in Storm King's Thunder (my sorceress died in the body of a rhemzhor...NOT GOOD.) and I just had to get it.

Book Review: Blood of Elves: A Novel of the Witcher by Andrzej Sapkowski

Blood of Elves by Andrzej Sapkowski
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you have played the Witcher games or love dark fantasy, then this book is for you. Though it took me a long time to read it, I enjoyed every last bit of it-I was on the adventure with Geralt and Ciri when they was traveling with Triss and had to protect her when she got sick, then it broke off and I saw Dandelion again and seeing my wifey Yennefer of Venegerberg....*le sigh* but all in all I love this book so much and would read all of these books when I find them.

Book Review: West to Comanche County by Doug Bowman

West To Comanche County by Doug Bowman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was my first western novel I've ever read and I honestly loved it. I'd never thought that I'd enjoy a book like this-I was prepared for the boring stuff, but the action parts and how Kirb got his revenge....

Hoooo-ly crapzola, where do I begin? Well let's start at the beginning, where Kirb and his wife Ellie left Tennessee to go to Texas. I swear these two are so cute, they became my OTP from the beginning. They traveled for days to Comanche County, meeting new people and eating the weirdest food combinations that I ever heard of before in my life, and when they did reach Comanche County and got settled down...that's when everything went straight to hell.

It all started in the wintertime, when Kirb and his friend Clay Summers walked in to find Ellie murdered-raped and killed by three men....and Kirb wanted revenge. So he did, after he buried her, and went to hunt down the three men. And all of them died quite painfully.

Stovall died with a bullet in his throat, and Pat Pollard and Lonny Tripp both died with a bullet in the mouth. I enjoyed it and I really do reconmend this book a lot.
