Episode 4: Conversations over Milk & Cookies - Leisl Kaberry

Welcome to Episode 4 of  Conversations over Milk & Cookies  hosted by Kindle Ninja. What is this madness, you ask?  It's my way of supporting authors and writers from the  Rave Reviews Book Club . For the entire month of April, I will be featuring the fine women and men that make up the Board of RRBC.  We interact with them everyday, directly through tweets, or indirectly through re-tweets, but we don't really know much about them. Their personalities really don't shine through in tweets and re-tweets. In Episode 1,   We see the silly side of  RRBC Secretary MARLENA HAND   ( @mlh42812 ).   In Episode 2,   RRBC Spotlight and Incentives Coordinator  TERI GARRINGER  ( @TeriGarringer ) bares her funny side in 26 Questions. In Episode 3 ,   RRBC Membership Director  KATHRYN TREAT  ( @KathrynCTreat )   lets her hair down and plays the game of 24 Questions. For Episode 4, RRBC Ho...

Words Some Authors Will Never Use In Their Book Titles

If you are easily offended by filthy words, pls. stop reading. You've been warned. I was reading   a discussion on the “worst words” in the English language that quickly turned into a discussion of the nastiest words used in novels. It became very entertaining fast!  This gave me an idea for a blog post, but I wanted a little participation from authors and writers in my social media network. So, I asked 60 authors this intriguing question: Results Warning: Cannot be unseen. Click for bigger view. This could blind you. A word cloud is generated in which the size of the word indicates its frequency (or popularity or importance – or in this case, the level of disgust?). **The word “THE” should be included but the word cloud maker didn’t include articles. My thoughts: -Most of the words are vulgar, filthy, and just plain disgusting. You might need to wash your eyes after reading. And if yo...

REVIEWS: Kindle Ninja Reads Chick Lit - PART 1

Real Ninjas read Chick Lit. Read the Reviews Part 1 I'M STILL HERE by Kathryn Biel  ★★★ ★ ★ 5/5 Let me start with a warning: Author Kathryn Biel pushes you into the abyss of mental illness and gives you Ho-Hos and Fritos to break your fall. It’s dark. It’s disturbing. It’s depressing. But it’s also hysterical and uproariously funny. If that doesn’t mess with your mind, I don’t know what will. The Comely clan is so dysfunctional, they make the Bluths and the Tenenbaums look so boringly normal. Esther Comely-Cox is quirky in a charming sort of way, but can also be totally unpredictable and can exhibit a combustible personality when provoked. But she is completely disarming. How can a hopelessly flawed character be so likeable? This is a story that touches on the serious issue of mental illness. And when it is correlated with dysfunctionality and parental neglect, it can become downright unsettling. But the author has injected a healthy dose of wi...

Kindle Ninja Review: RAVE REVIEWS BOOK CLUB Edition #2

Kindle Ninja Review Edition #2  featuring Titanian Chronicles and The Coming of the Storm. Titanian Chronicles: Journey of Destiny by Leisl Kaberry  5 / 5 ★★★★ ★ Titanian Chronicles: Journey of Destiny melds elements of Tolkienian fantasy with Potterian whimsicality. Is this a good thing? Absolutely! Whilst it is clearly a derivative (what isn’t?) of legendary tales of adventure, its unpredictability pulls you in to a fantasy world so vividly imagined, where sprightly creatures and beastly hybrids lurk and spring to action. The world-building is epic! It's almost cinematic in depth and detail. Author Leisl Kaberry has created an immersive fantasy world that veered away from the familiar. My only gripe (albeit a minor one) is that it’s quite a struggle to remember names and places. But then that’s what the glossary of terms at the end of the book is for. The main characters have distinct voices and it’s commendable that the author did not f...
