Davin's Quest is an intense and raw read. Emotion makes up a big part of Davin's Quest and Bianca D'Arc manages to pull that emotion out of a race with none. Ms. D'Arc made her characters come alive for me. I could feel Davin's intense need for emotion in his life. When he first met Callie, I could feel his hope. Callie is the backbone and heart of the story. She gave me hope that all was not lost with the world. These three characters were wonderfully written by Ms. D'Arc. Davin's Quest is the second book in the Resonance Mates series, but it can be read as a stand alone.

The Tennant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte
Anne Bronte's second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was described as "coarse" and "brutal" at the time it was written (1848). Nineteenth century convention was that women belonged in the home, under their husbands thumb. (Indeed, the idiom "rule of thumb" comes from the law that a man could not beat his wife with anything thicker than his thumb). Bronte, however, goes against custom in this novel of perseverance and pride.
