The Record #5
Funkin' Weird: The Record, Book 5
Down is up, lore is lie, and when the titans aren’t getting busy they’re getting buzzed. It’s shading weird around here.
What’s really cookin’ my A-game is the immortals. They’re dying. So much for accurate branding, right? I’ve got a handful of puzzle pieces that don’t fit, and a sense of doom that won’t quit.
What happens when an immortal dies? I’m so glad you asked. As the Keeper, I’m trying to hold the magical and human worlds aligned. I’ve got a symbiotic book, a partner, and dumb luck. I’m also staring down a witch war. My lover’s a god who thinks gaming the system is fine, my bestie is a witch ready to toss the Olympians out on their butts, and I’ve got to save a new magical race that can’t find their behinds with both hands and a flashlight.
Then the real deal showed up, ready to burn it all. I’m screwed, and it’s not even hump day.

About the author
Winnie Winkle
21 books28 followersWinnie Winkle is a fabulous Central Florida broad who swills bourbon, likes dogs and cats, and practices yoga, but not with any particular grace. Supporting live local music is a pretty big deal to Winnie, so if you pass a gravestone that admonishes, 'Go see the band and hit the tip jar', it's probably hers. But, since she's not dead yet, she'll keep penning fun stuff to rock your reading chair.
A 30+ year Florida resident, Winnie splits her time between Daytona Beach Shores and Mt. Dora. She prefers writing beach-side as much as she can because, if we’re baring our souls here, the ocean is a mighty muse and there’s only so much one can expect from coffee.
Winnie writes funny urban fantasy, sci fi comedy, paranormal romance/sci-fi romance, and literary fiction with unusual elements.

Patra, the main character, has two jobs – bartender and keeper of the line. Throughout the series she has held on by her toenails as the world is turned upside down. This book brings in the titans – yeah those titans. With a can do – oh crap, can I do attitude, lots of snark, and a witch for a best friend what could possibly go wrong? I can’t get enough of these FUN reads.

This book was fantastic. Winnie Winkle never disappoints. The characters are so real you fall in love. I am especially enamored of the depth of character in each one. I love the way Patra sees things as right or wrong and makes choices that don't always make things easy for her but she does it anyway. If you haven't read this series yet you definitely should start now!

Wow - what a ride. Patra has been in some tough situations in previous books but this might be the toughest of them all. When one of the Titans turns to stone Patra learns a new truth about the immortals. Titan Theia's death may signal that a new magical race will soon ascend to power. The action in this book is intense and loyalties are doubted and tested. I highly recommend this series. I do not consider these books to be stand alones. You will want to begin with book 1 Boogey Beach.

Totally loving this series. Patra is amazing. The amount of growth of the character throughout the book is big fun. After the turn things were suppose to level out but that doesn’t seem to be the case. There are more loose ends for Patra to track down and understand. The Gods are their best when giving cryptic clues. I love that potential is what keeps the world moving and that chaos is normal. Boundaries and friendships are tested with some interesting results for Patra.

Another great entry in the series!
I really have come to care for the main character. She is strong and helps the transition along in her own way.
I am looking forward to the next book.
If you haven't read the series yet, I recommend you start with the first book.
I hope you enjoy the series as much as I have.
