Grave Consequences by Lisa Tawn Bergren

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


From the moment I finished Glamorous Illusions, I was eagerly anticipating the sequel. I had to wait 11 months so I began to worry if it would live up to all the hype my brain was creating for it. I can honestly say it surpassed my expectations, just as all Lisa Bergren books do.

Grave Consequences picks up where we left Cora during The Grand Tour in Glamorous Illusions. Cora not only has to continuously prove herself to her new siblings, but she also has to accept that her life will never be the same since discovering who she really is. Adventure and romance lurks around every corner and Cora must acknowledge that feeling in her heart that tells her she may have fallen in love. This is not what she had planned. Will she decide to listen to her heart or to the father she just met?

The Bridge by Lisa Tawn Bergren
Lisa is one of my favorite authors and I was very excited to dive into this novel. The Bridge is one of those books that makes you take a closer look at your own life, but in an interesting way. When I began the story, I thought I would read it, maybe feel as if I'm in the character's world for a bit, and then move on to the next book in my list. Not so much. I was emotionally touched. The story in itself was amazing, to say the least, but it still speaks to me even after I finished the last word. Don't get me wrong, this is not one of those self help books, unless you need it to be. There is a wonderful story and whether you are looking for just a nice read or a quick read that touches your soul, this book is for you.
I love the way Lisa weaves together the past and the future and tells the story from several different character's viewpoints. Although I found the love of my life years ago, I can still relate to Anna, Eden, and even Jared. Each one of them, like so many of my friends, have been hurt and need healing in different ways. I still can't fathom how Lisa was able to make me feel all the emotions of each character. At any given point, I was able to feel as if I were the current person in the novel. I truly enjoyed reading The Bridge and feeling as if I had been healed from some unknown ailment myself.

Cascade~by Lisa T Bergren

Cascade by Lisa Tawn Bergren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great sequel to Waterfall. I could not put it down.

The story picks up as Gabi and Lia return to their mother, but leaving behind her love. Gabi convinces her sister and mom to return to medieval Italy, if it is even possible to return to the same time, or accept that her Marcello may be out of her life forever. If they return to the fourteenth century, they will be faced with known battles, illnesses, and the like. They will be leaving all they have ever known behind. Also thrown into the mix is a question. Can another be saved by time traveling? Or should history be left alone?

Waterfall~by Lisa T Bergren

Waterfall by Lisa Tawn Bergren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I downloaded this when it was offered free by amazon on my Kindle. I'll be honest, the cover grabbed me and I thought I'd read it eventually no matter the subject matter. I read the description and immediately added it to the top of my list. Then, I stumbled upon Waterfall Wednesdays, a read along. Oh my! What a great way to read and share with other Tribe fans! I soon realized that this would be one of those series I would fall in love with.

Waterfall is a story of two young girls, who are constantly dragged along to archaeological dig sites with their parents. Although Gabi and Lia find the teachings and history of historic Italy to be a bore at the time, it soon becomes absolutely relevant to them. After the tragic death of their father, their mother believes she has found an Etruscan site that she and her husband have always searched for. Knowing full well she should not, Gabi persuades Lia to enter the tomb her mom has found. Seeing two odd handprints on the wall of the tomb, the girls feel compelled to touch them. That's when everything changes, even the time. Medieval Italy, here they come. And they can only survive by trusting each other and by faith.

To say this book was amazing is an understatement. I cannot put into words how this book made me feel. It is refreshing to read a story that compels me to share it with my children. When I fist downloaded Waterfall, little did I know I would be buying the next two in the series within the following two months. Almost a year after I found Waterfall, I am using it as a homeschooling family reading novel with my two kids, who love it. This series is a wonderful young adult medieval time travel series.

Bourne~by Lisa T Bergren

Bourne by Lisa Tawn Bergren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Once in a blue moon there is a series of books when, as soon as another is released, you must immediately purchase and read. The River of Time Books are such a series. One must stop whatever they are currently reading and continue the saga of the She-Wolves! This novella was captivating from page one...enjoy!

Review~Tributary By Lisa T. Bergren

Tributary by Lisa Tawn Bergren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another amazing installment in the River of Time Series. Lisa snags your attention from the first word written and doesn't let it go. Ever! I'm seriously still thinking about what may happen next. I am not one for spoilers, so this will be kept short.

Marcello, Gabriella, Luca, Evangelina and Rodolfo's story continues a year following the battle in Bourne. Things are quite calm until a stranger literally lands on their side of the border. This stranger, a young girl named Alessandra, soon finds herself torn between the life she once knew, enemies of Marcello and his family, and the life that is now presented to her. She is forced to look at Gabi and the She-Wolves in a different light and it confuses her very being. As if this weren't enough, secrets abound between Gabi and Evangelia. Secrets the enemy must not uncover or they shall once again be in harm's way.

Tributary was everything I wanted in a novella and more. Grab your copy today!
