I have never hidden my unconditional love for Gini Koch's Kitty/Alien series. Yes, there are tons of characters to keep track of, yes, there are A LOT of plot points that can get lost in the shuffle, but each and every single book in the series is a treat, better than chocolate for me!

After how amazing Universal Alien was, I was definitely looking forward to Alien Separation and Gini has NOT disappointed me. It is hard to follow such a juggernaut of a novel that Universal Alien was, but Gini has done so. There are a few slower points in Alien Separation and I think that was perfect. I love the fast pace stuff, but I enjoy the quiet moments just as much. 

Be prepared, a lot of threads that were scattered throughout the series come together in Alien Separation. You should not read it without reading the previous books. The enjoyment of this series is dependent upon it. However, it is SO freaking worth it!

Thanks Gini Koch for another incredible journey! Cannot wait for more, always!

Larissa's Review: The Diamond Conspiracy {Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences #4} by Pip Ballantine & Tee Morris

For years, the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences has enjoyed the favor of Her Majesty the Queen. But even the oldest loyalties can turn in a moment…

Having narrowly escaped the electrifying machinations of Thomas Edison, Books and Braun are looking forward to a relaxing and possibly romantic voyage home. But when Braun’s emergency signal goes off, all thoughts of recreation vanish. Braun’s street-wise team of child informants, the Ministry Seven, is in grave peril, and Books and Braun must return to England immediately.

But when the intrepid agents finally arrive in London, the situation is even more dire than they imagined. The Ministry has been disavowed, and the Department of Imperial Inconveniences has been called in to decommission its agents in a most deadly fashion. The plan reeks of the Maestro’s dastardly scheming. Only, this time, he has a dangerous new ally—a duplicitous doctor whose pernicious poisons have infected the highest levels of society, reaching even the Queen herself...

I love a great steampunk series and the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences series is one of the best out there.

I absolutely adore the world Pip and Tee created. Books and Braun are one of the best couples in fiction and love their support system, their friends, their banter and their adventures.

The Diamond Conspiracy might be the best entry in the series yet. Braun and Book's world gets even more turned upside down and the new elements Tee and Pip added to the series left me speechless.

I LOVE this series and I hope you'll give it a shot. I hope it gets more and more books! I can't wait for the next adventure!

5 Loveys Review: Phoenix in My Fortune (Monster Haven #6) by R.L. Naquin

Phoenix in My Fortune (Monster Haven #6) by R.L. Naquin  
When Zoey Donovan found out monsters are real, her life changed—mostly for the better. Since then, she's fought bad guys, saved the world a time or two and earned the love of a growing family of humans and Hidden creatures alike. But the danger that's chased her from the beginning is finally here.
Shadow Man, aka The Last Hidden, has stepped out of the story humans wrote for him and into the real world, hell-bent on stealing children. Fiction has become reality and Shadow Man intends to break the Covenant, reclaim the Hidden, and kill all Aegises along the way…triple bad news for Zoey and her mother, the only two Aegises still alive.
Zoey will have to rescue the stolen kids and hunt down the most terrifying villain humanity has ever imagined. But how can she fight a creature only invented a few years ago? If Shadow Man triumphs, the world as she knows it will end. If Zoey succeeds in driving him out, the people she loves the most may be lost to her forever.

So sad this series I really love is over, but I am glad R.L. Naquin has given it such a loving and awesome ending. I am thrilled!

Zoey's final showdown is finally here and the stakes are higher than ever before. Phoenix in my Fortune made me cry, laugh and root for the heroes so much, it felt like a roller coaster.

I hope someday R.L. Naquin revisits this world or at least gives us a short story in the future, I would love to catch up with all my beloved characters!

If you enjoy UF, you should definitely check out this series. Thanks Naquin for awesome stories and an even better world to get lost into!
