Goodreads Synopsis:
Addie is visiting Ireland for her aunt’s over-the-top destination wedding, and hoping she can stop thinking about the one horrible thing she did that left her miserable and heartbroken—and threatens her future. But her brother, Ian, isn’t about to let her forget, and his constant needling leads to arguments and even a fistfight between the two once inseparable siblings. Miserable, Addie can’t wait to visit her friend in Italy and leave her brother—and her problems—behind.

So when Addie discovers an unusual guidebook, Ireland for the Heartbroken, hidden in the dusty shelves of the hotel library, she’s able to finally escape her anxious mind and Ian’s criticism.

And then their travel plans change. Suddenly Addie finds herself on a whirlwind tour of the Emerald Isle, trapped in the world’s smallest vehicle with Ian and his admittedly cute, Irish-accented friend Rowan. As the trio journeys over breathtaking green hills, past countless castles, and through a number of fairy-tale forests, Addie hopes her guidebook will heal not only her broken heart, but also her shattered relationship with her brother.

That is if they don’t get completely lost along the way.

Review:
Love & Luck is one of the cutest books I have ever read. I really loved this book, it really is a feel good book, perfect after a bad day to cheer you up.

I loved all of the characters in this book. The main characters, Addie, Rowan, and Ian undergo some development in their character before the book ends, which is pretty rare for a contemporary YA novel. In addition, I loved how there was information that wasn’t revealed until much later in the book, which added a little layer of suspense and made me want to keep reading and never put the book down!

I also really loved how Jenna Evans Welch left room for the reader to imagine what happens after the end of the book! I haven’t read many books that end like this one did, so that was a bit of a breath of fresh air for me. I can’t wait to see if there are more books like this one by Jenna!

Overall, Love & Luck is a really lovely book and I highly recommend it to any contemporary romance fan!

Title: Water Weaver

Author: Morgan Sheppard

Series: Wraidd Elfennol, #2

Genre: Fantasy, Romance

Publisher: Morgan Sheppard

Date Published: October 31, 2015

Pages: 644

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



Goodreads Synopsis:
The Isle of Wraidd Elfennol is a place balanced by the four elements of nature – Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. The essence of each element is contained within a sacred artefact, helping to keep the balance of life.

At the Summer Solstice celebration, the Lords and Ladies of the Elements announce their artefacts are missing. A human and animal partnership is Chosen for each Element, to find the missing artefacts and help restore the balance.

Together, they embark on a quest to find the missing artefacts. As the world around them changes, danger lurks with every challenge the group must face.

Time is not on their side as their quest must be completed before a year and a day has passed.

Rejoin the World of Wraidd Elfennol as Marella and Nixie, the Chosen of Water, learn how to work with those of the other Elements.

Review:
Water Weaver is epic. That is the only way I know how to describe it. This book is over 600 pages long and never feels boring. The moment you start the book, you are drawn into this phenomenally crafted world, and you will never want to leave.

The first thing that I just have to talk about is the world building in this series. It is absolutely amazing! Little aspects of the world that you learn as you continue reading, form the fantastic world and really makes you feel like you are in the world.

The characters in Water Weaver are also so amazing. The development of each and every character really pushed the book over the top for me and made it a five star book!

Overall, Water Weaver is uniquely brilliant and I highly recommend getting your hands on a copy and doing yourself the favor of reading it!
