Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Summoning The Night by Jenn Bennett




This book was given 4.5 stars by Romantic Times Book Reviews.  Now I don’t know the folks at Romantic Times and this is not intended to be critical but most guys would be somewhat put off with that accolade.  Up front, I enjoyed the book and I avoid romance novels like the plague.  The book involves a witch and her single father boyfriend demon as they face an evil wizard and disappearing children. 

Ms. Bennett takes an unlikely scenario and populates it with likeable and believable characters.  The protagonists are not super hero/heroine types.   They have foibles and faults and quirks.   They do dumb things and pay for them.   A great plot can be dragged down with crass characters just as a pool plot can be bolstered by great characterizations. 

This is by no means a poor plot; it has some substance and provides a strong level of mystery.   You find yourself enjoying the mystery and those of you who are leery of the supernatural, it is more like the icing than the cake.   This book is a very good mix that produces a very palatable read.   Hmm,  it is approaching dinner time, I find my food references increase in dramatic proportion to my appetite. 

I recommend it.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
