Elemental mysteries series - Elizabeth Hunter - 2011/2012 - Kindle
Blurb...A phone call from an old friend sets Dr. Giovanni Vecchio back on the path of a mystery he’d abandoned years before. He never expected a young librarian could hold the key to the search, nor could he have expected the danger she would attract. Now he and Beatrice De Novo will follow a twisted maze that leads from the archives of a university library, through the fires of Renaissance Florence, and toward a confrontation they never could have predicted.
Review: I stumbled across this series the other day. I just bought Book 1 and though I would give it a try. I was so hooked that I am now up to Book 3 and I'm loving it. It ticks all the right boxes for this genre, action, good v's evil, love, history books and throw in a can of whoop arse and you are in for a rollicking good time. What's not to love. I highly recommend this series.

Slated
Slated by Keri Kerry - 2012
Blurb...Kyla’s memory has been erased,
her personality wiped blank,
her memories lost for ever.
She’s been Slated.
The government claims she was a terrorist, and that they are giving her a second chance - as long as she plays by their rules. But echoes of the past whisper in Kyla’s mind. Someone is lying to her, and nothing is as it seems. Who can she trust in her search for the truth?
Review: I have just started this story and already I know that I am in for a ride. It has come highly recommended by a close friend who is also an avid reader. Just be reading the blurb I'm thinking that it may run along similar lines as The Host by Stephanie Mayer. Not as in the alien line but more in the dual personality host thing. We shall see. Well I have finished this story and as usual the ending leaves you in the air, wondering who are Kyla's true friends and her real enemies.
