DNF
The world building doesn't have a lot of thought put into it. Disappointingly obvious holes in the character's back stories and world building. Simplistic writing style with no nuance and unrealistic dialogue. Boring paint-by-numbers plot.

I skimmed a lot of this so I won’t rate it. The book follows adopted sisters as they meet their mates. There’s lots of editing issues, but the author warns ahead so I was expecting it. I have read another of her books, and thought this one was in better shape.

My main problem was there was just too much going on. It almost feels like several novellas stuck together, but missing connectors. The first sub-plot revolves around an evil alpha who wants to kidnap the h. Then, we jump to another subplot as the MC’s go off to train, and meet new wolves. There’s a coma, an evil wannabe OW, that could have been effective for stirring stuff up, but everyone kept saying she wouldn’t be a problem. There’s a ghost, and a sort of guiding spirit… a bit all over the place. Add in lots of time jumps (2/6/1 weeks) and it was choppy, and difficult to follow.
My advice would be to just streamline (less is sometimes more) shorten the length and tighten it up.

It was like a train wreck and I had to finish just to see if it would improve. It did NOT. This was HORRIBLY written. It was like reading a first draft, and I mean the type of first draft that even the writer hasn't reread for errors. The synopsis had a good plot laid out, but the actual story was full of plot holes and issues galore. Grammar was horrid. Sentence structure was horrid. Dialogue wasn't believable in most cases. Tense changed from word to word. Time lapse was off. For example, someone was kidnapped and taken to a location "2 days drive" from the setting for the majority of the book. (Plot hole here: Even though they discover her missing 5 minutes after she was taken, they don't attempt a rescue). Then after she is rescued they're back at their pack house within an hour (or so it seemed, since the doctor didn't stitch her up or try and stop the bleeding until they returned). So how did it take 2 days to drive there, but coming back didn't?

Ms. Goldberger, if you read this, please hire an editor for all future work, and fix this book. Also, the word you were looking for is OUR not ARE.

Wolf Love

True love, my love of shifter stories. Ok this is a sweet were-wolf fairly short story. I did miss a few clues but am sure you won't. It deserves a couple of sequels with a dance or two. My problem is with the proof reader, or lack thereof. You really have to get in the story then fill in the blanks yourself, toward the end I got very good at add and skip words. Fun read for a rainy evening.

Good book

I think this was a good book but had a lot of grammatical errors. I think the plot needed to be a little stronger but overall I loved the storyline and how it ended.

Cute story

Very cute and intriguing story but hard to read because of the numerous spelling and gramatical errors. If you can get past the errors you should check the book out.

another good story

While these stories from Goldberger continue to need a couple more rounds of editing, the stories are always good. They’re interesting, the characters are well developed and the dialogue and inner monologue is interesting.

The third person narration is something to get used to but the multiple POV is a welcome addition. Again, there isn’t much difference between one pov to the other, so you do have to pay attention but it isn’t awful.

I’m not sure what Goldberger has against adoption but this is another story where the character is othered. Also towards the end Sasha’s “selfishness” that would’ve happened without the adoption showed up suddenly which seemed strange.

There are so many packs and Alphas and side stories, and if you don’t ask too many questions- it is really enjoyable.

I do want to know if Sonja (at one point called Stacy even though it’s the same paragraph where she’s named Sonja) and Jacob ever went home? Or did they join this pack because the girls were there? Never mentioned after the Alpha ceremony. The original girls, why was Susan sick? Where did she go? How did those original girls just give up? The Victoria storyline was so long and woven throughout the whole story to affect everyone they met.

Overall, it was as good as the previous Goldberger books I’ve read.

Visions!!

Bless her, this author really needs an editor. There are so many problems that each page would be filled with red ink. However, the story itself was GREAT!

We have a werewolf family who also have an adopted daughter, and she happens to be a seer. But the two daughters/sisters are a couple of years apart, and they are very close. They very clearly understand each other and love each other dearly.

They have been asked to meet the next Alpha’s family to see if the daughters might be a mate to one of the two men/brothers. Then there’s a crazy OW who is heck-bent on mating an Alpha, but she’s no one’s actual mate. That doesn’t stop her, of course.

And to top it all off we have a crazy grandfather who wants to take over the world, and thinks the seer will enable him to do it. Not so fast, gramps…

Lots of fun, just don’t get too hung up on the bad writing. I enjoyed it!

Mixed thoughts

It was a nice story but the two main “villain” storylines were almost rushed through and there wasn’t much development with them. There were lots of spelling mistakes and some sentences didn’t make sense. It is almost as if the author amended a sentence but didn’t delete all of the one before. I think the MFC mum was also called Stacy a couple of times instead of Sonja as I couldn’t work out who this strange character was all of a sudden!
The characters all spent a lot of time “laughing” even at inappropriate times, which almost made it corny at times. Honestly, laughing was probably the most repeated word in the whole story.
That said it was a nice story to pass the time but not one that I couldn’t put down.

A sweet young adult shifters romance

The book was well written with only a couple of grammatical errors, other than that the story line was cute and pretty original. Throughout the book the author creates settings and imagery that helped explain certain aspects of the book. I would recommend this book to anyone searching for a quick little adventure full of drama, soulmates, witches and romance.

Great storyline but major edits needed

The story line is great. However, the grammatical errors jar you out of the world often. Additionally, the visions are written in a horribly confusing way (as if we are seeing it as well and the author is just pointing out key information rather than actually filling us in). Sometimes it is ok but other times the story references it and you have a "that's what the vision was?!" Moment that again removes you from the world.

Great Storyline

Again i love the story and how each character play in the story. Yet the grammar and formatting and many other editing issues takes away from the story. But i still enjoyed this book. Wish more professional editors were involved before publication. But i will still read this author books. Her characters are strong and caring.

DNF - Pathetic

I am so sorry but this writing was puerile and off putting. I was losing my mind with the sheer number of typos and grammar errors. But I prodded on until 19% when the references to "something" just collapsed leaving me wondering wtf. Then to make matters worse the story progressed like a 10 year old was writing it. By 23% I gave up!

Sweet and Low drama

I thoroughly enjoyed this palette cleanser. The characters were sweet and enjoyable. While there was tension, the drama was low. I'm certain to read more by the author.

Note: Like many digital books, this one has the occasional misused word. If you can't move past 'are' and 'our' being interchanged, I would suggest skipping this book.

Marked in a Vision

I think I was wowed by this book. I loved the storyline and most of the characters. Victoria was one evil woman, geez. She got what she deserved and then some. Myra was my favorite of all especially how she just popped up in all the right places.

Needs editing

I enjoyed the story. The book reads like the author's first language is not English. I have read 2 books now and both really need to be edited.
