About the author
W.J. May
236 books1,190 followers Wanita May grew up in the fruit belt of Ontario - St.Catharines. Crazy-happy childhood, she always has had a vivid imagination and loads of energy.
The youngest of six -- four older brothers, and a sister -- taught her at a young age to be competitive in all aspects of life.
At sixteen, she began competing in athletics (track and field) and before she turned seventeen, she was representing Canada in high jump. She continued to compete, breaking Canada's JR High Jump record (1.92m - 6' 3 1/2" for those metric-ly challenged). She attented University of Toronto, and Kansas State University - winning CIAU's and becoming All-American 6x - NCAA Indoors Runner Up + more.
But you're not interested in her athletic career - unless of course you're curious to know she stands 1.70m (5'7") and has jumped 20cm over her head on more than one occassion. She's represented Canada at the World Championships, World Jrs., won Francophone Games, and loved every minute of every competition. From the grueling workouts, the crazy weights she lifted on her back, the days she thought her lungs were going to spit out of her mouth for lack of oxygen, the travelling around the world and the opportunity to read - her favourite past time.
Life continued with her husband (a distance runner from Liverpool, UK, who she met at KSU) and then their first, then second and finally third child. Their house became full of more imagination and stories.
Wanita and her husband run an online business, dealing in antiques and collectables - particularly jewelry and porcelain (one of the business' website: www.wadeincanada.com ).
After her father passed away in 2009, from a six-year battle with cancer (which she still believes he won the fight against), she began to write again. A passion she'd loved for years, but realized life was too short to keep putting it off.
Her first book, Rae of Hope - from the Chronicles of Kerrigan - will be available October 2011 by kNight Romance Publishing.
She is currently represented by Dawn Dowdle of Blue Ridge Literary Agency. Wanita is a writer of Young Adult, Fantasy Fiction and where ever else her little muses take her.

1. Rae Of Hope by W.J. May *1 Star (PR)
Rae goes to some crazy boarding school where you get tattoos and powers from them. There are people that hate her because of things that her father did. It was an ok idea for a story but I just hated the characters and everything they did. They all seemed to have odd priorities and morals. And a lot of the dialogue was just awkward.
2. Ignite (Midnight Fire 1) by Kaitlyn Davis ***3 Stars (PR)
I've said this before...I have no problem with love triangles...that being said, this book didn't really have that going on. This was more about the romance between Tristan and Kira and the obstacles facing them as a couple. One of those obstacles being the society of conduits that fight vampires. They aren't super thrilled with Kira even existing so dating a vampire is an extra big no-no. The conduits are split on their views of how to deal with vampires, I thought that was interesting and added a nice layer to the vampires v. super-humans story....who's right and who's wrong and all that. I liked that the story moved quickly and didn't drag out and overall I enjoyed it but ....it just didn't get there for me. I didn't feel as strongly for the characters in the end as I probably should have.
3. Blur (Night Roamers 1) by Kristen Middleton **2 Stars (PR)
Ok this was like a cross between twilight and the lost boys....which in theory sounds pretty good, but this was just so rushed. Characters were hardly developed, there was so much insta-love my head was spinning and a lot of the dialogue was pretty juvenile considering all of the adult situations.
4. Element (Natalie Vega Saga 1) by C.M. Doporto *1 Star (PR)
Honestly, the main character was just a pretentious bitch who looked down on and judged the people around her. Not really someone I care to read about.
5. Eternal Vows by Chrissy Peebles ***3 Stars (PR)
Sarah finds herself in a different world, literally when she is searching for her missing sister. She runs into an incredibly handsome and charming king that seems like he is a jerk but they have some steamy chemistry. I was really enjoying this and then Sarah inexplicable became too stupid to live...but thankfully the book ended with a cliffhanger at that point.
6. The Light Keepers (Shadowlight Saga .5) by Mande Matthews ****4 Stars (PR)
Astrid is isolated with her mother and their protector Balin. She needs to learn to sing protections from the Shadow to protect herself. This is a struggle when she has never been able to utter a sound and she is drawn to the Shadowalk. One night she gives away their location and they must flee...Isla and Balin to safety and Astrid to the boy she knows as her protector. This was a quick read with a lot of story. I liked the characters even though I felt Isla was a bit harsh at times. I am very interested in continuing the series.
