Many sections of Crofton and Black’s book are too facile and leave the work skewed and unsatisfying; those interested in learning more about the Roosevelts than just their public personae will enjoy their grandson’s take

E-Originals: Xpress Reviews | May 5, 2017
Christian’s fast-paced plot and action-packed scenes are more than enough to keep readers turning the pages; a good purchase that will appeal to romance readers who like a sweet story with just the right amount of spice; a fun, lighthearted departure from standard romance fare

Libraries where S.E. Jakes is popular will find a ready audience for Albert’s “Out of Uniform” books; with sexy heat between the sheets and an unpredictable twist, Dover’s new series opener should have wide appeal; Mecca’s book is a strong choice for any reader who enjoys stories set in medieval times featuring strong-willed female characters and knights

Fans of superhero fiction will find that these imaginative stories; this action-packed sequel to The Girl with All the Gifts is a zombie thriller with a sympathetic cast of characters and multiple narrators; Harrison’s latest is a lackluster thriller

Nonfiction: Xpress Reviews | May 12, 2017
Despite the tongue-in-cheek attitude and silly footnotes, Cham’s work is highly recommended for science shelves and YA collections; rather than resorting to health-scare tactics, this topic could have been presented by Dufault in a less ominous way
