My Answer: 

Yes, I have made a few typos/mistakes on some of my reviews. Normally, I catch the errors right after I post it, so I quickly make the correct adjustments, but there have been a few occasions where the author/publisher noticed the typo and asked me to correct it.

Review:

Arriving on DVD on Tuesday, June 10, 2014, is Slugterra: Ghoul From Beyond, the first Slugetrra movie! As a bonus feature is the Slugisode - Burpy & Friends Take A Drive.

The series airs on Disney XD and centers on young Eli Shane, who is determined to become the best slug-singing hero on Slugterra. Shane, along with his friends (Pronto Geronimole, Beatrice "Trixie" Sting and Kord Zane), battle the deadly Dr. Thaddius Blakk and his goons, slugs and ghouls.

Eli finally defeated Dr. Thaddius Blakk and his slugs at the end of the third season, but evil is never too far from behind. In the first ever Slugterra move, Eli and the gang are on their way to Convertamail Cavern, where they encounter Boss Ember and the Scrap Force Gang, whom have their own megamorphs.

Eli and the gang are determined to find out how Boss Ember got a hold of the megamorphs, so they travel to the eastern caverns, but awaiting them is a new danger.

Have you ever convinced someone to read a book, a series, or a whole genre? What book(s) and who was it? Did they like it?

I pass along Amish fictions and other Christian romances to my a family friend, which she devours the books in a few weeks. Occasionally, I can get talk my grandmother into reading a book, but she doesn't read as much as she use to.

Review:

I have read many Christian fiction series and most of them tend to have a different set of main characters for every each new book. The Alaskan Courage series is the exception, which each novel centers on the McKenna family. For a reader, it is nice revisiting likeable characters.

The fourth book, Silenced, centers on the oldest McKenna sibling, Kayden, whom finds herself getting entangled in a mystery when she stumbles upon a dead body while rock climbing. The dead climber's investigation is left in the hands of Sheriff Landon Grainger, but he enlists the help from former Boston homicide detective, Jake Westin, who is someone Kayden would much rather avoid interacting with, but her feelings for Jake can't be pushed aside forever.

Besides from catching a killer, Sheriff Grainger has to deal with Reef McKenna returning to town for the sheriff's wedding to Reef's sister, Piper.

“…Brown and DeFelice are at the top of their game…The pages fly by as fast as the quicksilver drones while Turk faces one exciting, life-threatening complication after another.” – STARRED review, Publisher’s Weekly

Authors Dale Brown and Jim DeFelice have returned with the fifteenth entry in the Dreamland aviation thriller series, titled Drone Strike. Dreamland is a top-secret government base in Nevada, where new advanced weapons, vehicles and planes are developed, including drones.

Drone Strike centers on U.S. Air Force test pilot, Captain Turk Mako, who is assigned to the new "Hyrda" drones (unmanned aerial vehicles) program. These drones are small, near the size of a desktop calculator, but in the shape of a lawn dart. These drones are future of the the Air Force.

Iran's nuclear efforts have moved forward, leading the U.S. government to take action by letting Captain Mako send out his drones in the attempt to stop Iran's attack. He is sent to Iran along with a Delta Force team to locate and destroy a hidden underground nuclear facility.
