I’m up to book five of the Discovery! I can’t believe how fast I devoured this little series—literally within days!
I actually have delayed writing my reviews because I enjoyed them too much and wanted to savor the story by musing over it and thinking about what to write!
Once again I’ll point out a disclaimer on this review (for those that haven’t read the other reviews of this series) that while the story is fantastic—the price is a bit expensive for mini-novellas! Hopefully they’ll be released in a combined book format at a later date!
Luke finally remembers his name but he has no recollection of his life otherwise. At this point I was getting a little frustrated because things were starting to progress a bit with Meredith and Jonah! Granted, I really felt that Jonah was a bit too pushy and I started to dislike him at this point.
Meredith’s baby has been born and life is going on for her. I began to seriously dislike her Mother-In-Law at this point though. While I agreed she needed to slow things down a bit—she was totally obnoxious and possessive of Meredith to the point that I wanted to reach through the pages and give her a good whack!
All in all, I really have loved this series. Some of my frustrations with characters are peeking through in this review but I must say—emotion evoked in a reader is the mark of a good writer! The feelings I have expressed are not a bad thing!
If you can find this little series at a bargain price then they’re well worth the read! You won’t be disappointed with the story but as I said prior—you may be frustrated if you pay full price for them as they are only around 124 pages long with a $6.99(ish) price tag!
