Never Kiss a Werebunny by Keira Blackwood



2 Stars

Kissing? It’s the express lane to spit-swap city and cootie central, according to my kids.

The real danger, though, is catching a bad case of feelings.

Exacerbating that danger is the fact that somewhere in my heart lurks a hopeless romantic, a sneaky little love-cheerleader out of place in my otherwise pragmatic life. It’s the force advocating for late-night-romance-novel-reading sleep deprivation. And it’s a silent rebel stirred awake by the insanely hot voice of the guy next door.

I've got that mushy part of myself locked down deep, nearly forgotten beneath my day job herding grown yet child-minded men who think the epitome of podcasting excellence is butt jokes, and actual child-wrangling at home.

But when my daughters prod me to kiss a bunny at the farmer’s market, I assume it’s harmless.

Until I sprout a fluffy little cottontail.

Turns out cooties are real. Even scarier, so are feelings.

This was not a story but an idea. It was too short to build anything. Add in the insta love it just didn’t work well for me. There needed to be more world building and character development to make this a full story.

Scrapbooking the Supernatural by Keira Blackwood

 











3 Star

Jen helped her friend Remi learn all about her fire magic now she needs to learn about her dream magic to keep them safe from the big bad.  She will do anything to protect her friends and her son.  When her son is threatened, she will need to look for allies in strange places and just maybe find love again.

Where I loved the first book, I only like the second one.  Jen just kind of irritated me in this book.  Not to mention Molly kept pivotal information from them.  These women are supposed to be working together.  Jen and Remi are working together but Molly is off doing her own thing since she knows what needs to happen.  It got very frustrating.  In addition to this issue because Jen is a dream witch everything was just a bit outlandish for me and I had trouble enjoying the story because of the crazy going on.  It was a bad crazy and not a good crazy.  Overall, the book just disappointed me.

I am adding this here since I don’t know if/when I will review the third book Wrinkles and Runes is out.  I did start it as soon as I finished book two, but I could not get into it at all.  Book two had a repeat of the same problems as this one where Molly continued keeping secrets.  I just couldn’t read it.  I will attempt to read it later, but prospects are not promising.

Sweatpants and Spells by Keira Blackwood

 











4 Star

Remi’s life is changing drastically.  She was at her ex-stepdaughter’s wedding when her ex-husband kidnaps her and bites her.  What she doesn’t realize is she’s the reason he started on fire.  Now that she has magic she needs to learn all about what that means and how to use her powers.  She will have to work with new people to

I loved this story.  It was incredibly funny.  I loved Remi and her best friend Jen.  It was fun seeing her come into her own and finding her forever man who supported her.  The book is part of a larger series, and it looks like it builds on each other for an overarching bad guy who wasn’t really taken out in this book but one bad guy was taken out.  It was nice to see an older woman find her happy ending.
