It's a new year and that means a new reading goal and new books to be discovered and enjoyed. My 2017 Goodreads Reading Challenge has started off well. I plan to read 120 books this year with 19 down already. I'm coming in hot!
So let's get down to it. Here are the indie books I read and reviewed in January.

I enjoyed this collection of short stories involving zombies in one fashion or another. Some stories were funny, some tragic, some sweet, but all were well written. I hope to read more from this author soon.

For such a short story, this was a well written mystery. Fast paced, but with enough detail to draw you in, this "who-done-it" tale was a pleasure to read.

An enjoyable read! The characters were flawed but relatable and the story was parts fun, heartbreaking, and sweet. A great way to spend an afternoon.

A bit predictable, but still adorable, this story was a nice, cozy read for a lazy day. Now I just have to read the next in the series!

This was a heartwrenching glimpse into Abbey's life before she discovers who she really is, and finds her place among a new family. Having already read Cloak of Shadows, I enjoyed getting to know more about Abbey's past.

Review:
A dark but interesting story with a satisfying ending. The plot was intriguing, if not a bit cliche, with a female who constantly needs saving and a hot guy that every girl he gets near throws themselves at. There are also a good amount of editing issues that should be addressed.
Even so, the story shines through and I found myself riveted to the page and rooting for the unlikely couple to get through the drama.

Review:
I enjoy short naughty stories and this collection was pretty decent. The taboo part wasn't too out there and it was nice that the characters had varying looks and personalities. Unforunately, the sex scenes in each story sounded almost exactly the same so after reading a couple, it was basically a repeat with new characters.
There you go, faithful readers. I hope to read some more awesome indie books this year and share my finds with you. Happy reading!
