Confuzzled Books
If you are wondering what kinds of books I review and events I host, this little section is the place to look.
Books I love to read: Children's, Young Adult, Paranormal and Fantasy books.
Books I like to read: General Fiction, Romances, Religious Fiction, Mysteries and Biographies.
So those are the genres of books I will generally review. If you send me a book outside of those areas, I'll consider it, but it may not fit my tastes. Reviews will take about 2 months to post; I try to post them around the time the book is released.
On giveaways: Sending me a signed book to give away on the site is a great way to get your book noticed. I do a "mystery book" giveaway about every 2 weeks, where I read the book and twitter about it without revealing its title, then reveal what I've been reading and give it away. The whole event takes a couple weeks, and I feature the giveaway book on my blog for most of that time.

Ellie and the Elven King
At the moment I am not a fan of romance. I do try and just hope that is that I haven’t found the right one or series. This one was not the right one.What drew me to it was the cover and I purchased this at the very first FaerieCon. The mixture of photo and illustration is beautiful but the story of Ellie and her Elven King lacks something.
Even when it try to be funny it is just off.
Ellie inherits her sister’s horse farm and her Elven husband, the King of Elves. See even there doesn’t that sound strange. What is even stranger to me is that Ellie is already married. Sure he’s not a nice guy but she married him for some reason right?
I like the idea of grown up picture books but I have yet to find one that is something I would want to keep. I also love the idea of fantasy with romance but I just did not love this. It was awkward and disheartening. I had no feeling for the characters or the story. The best thing is the art.
