 I've started an off-shoot of my Put This One on Your TBR List review series with The Hit List: Young Adult Series Favorites on the Alien Romances Blog. This week I review The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, including The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

 I received a new review for HEARTS ABLAZE, Book 4: Peaceful Pilgrims Series:
4 Stars! “Come to the small town of Peaceful, Wisconsin. This is where some of the most big-hearted people live, love, and help each other out. I have no doubt that many ladies in the real world have had their own version of an "Alexander" in their lives. However, I do not believe most of them were as mean as Riley's Alexander--assistant to the Chief Human Resources Officer at Trouvaille Commercial Airlines, [who] never believed Riley was not interested in having a romantic relationship with him, even though Riley told him every time they met for coffee or meetings that she was not interested in him that way. But now Alexander is a believer, and he has informed Riley that he has done some shady things to help her advance in her career. Alexander goes on to explain that he was going to pin all of it on Riley, making himself seem the victim, and ruin her career forever. Watching Riley, Blaze, and their kin as they deal with all the problems that come their way kept my attention throughout the story, just as watching Riley and Blaze spend some wonderful time together did. If you have not read any of the previous titles, I assure you that each story stands alone. However, it is nice to see the previous main characters of stories have parts as secondary characters in others. It makes me feel as though I actually know these people. Karen Wiesner weaves all their lives together to create a warm and friendly town with some amazing locals in it. I can hardly wait to read more about Peaceful, Wisconsin.” ~Huntress Reviews Find out more: https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/peaceful-pilgrims-series.html https://www.writers-exchange.com/a-peaceful-pilgrim-novel-series/  I've posted a new "Put This One on Your TBR List" review of Fractal Noise, A Fractalverse Novel by Christopher Paolini on the Alien Romances Blog.

I could hardly wait to find out how they would resolve the conflict between their needs and wishes. They’re both well-developed characters with whom it’s easy to sympathize. The external conflict incited by a malicious co-worker meshes effectively with Blaze and Riley’s marital difficulties. The small-town setting and the cast of engaging secondary characters enrich the story. The reader gets a clear impression of a self-contained world that has been going on since before the novel starts and will continue after it ends, yet HEARTS ABLAZE stands perfectly fine on its own with no need to have read other books in the series. The conclusion struck me as entirely satisfactory even though realistically imperfect. Riley may not get what she wanted at first, but both she and Blaze learn and grow through the experience." ~award-winning author Margaret L.

Wiesner Writing Reference/Nonfiction Coming in 2023 https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/writing-reference-titles.html NEW REVIEWS I received 2 new reviews for BONE OF MY BONE, Book 7: Bloodmoon Cove Spirits Series: 5 Stars! "To say that I enjoyed this eerie story would be a huge understatement. Wiesner managed to send a chill up my spine not once, but twice. That does not happen often. It is testament to how potent the poison is on the tip of her pen. Hey, Writers Exchange, publish this series faster!" ~Detra Fitch for Huntress Reviews 5 Stars! “BONE OF MY BONE is the 7th book in Karen Wiesner’s Bloodmoon Cove Spirits Series. What a spooky novel. I just loved it! My heart went out to the little girl who eventually named herself Ice. I could see Bennet’s love for her even from the start. This story had me fretting from moment to moment about what would happen. I can hardly wait to read the next in the series!” ~Linda's Reviews https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/bloodmoon-cove-spirits-series.html https://www.writers-exchange.com/bloodmoon-cove-spirits-series/ AUTHOR PAGES Writers Exchange: http://www.writers-exchange.com/Karen-Wiesner/ and http://www.writers-exchange.com/blog/ Barnes and Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/Karen%20Wiesner Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/author/karenwiesner Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/karenwiesner Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/KarenWiesnerAuthor NEW!
