I've gotten some awesome galley copies of novels from Netgalley.com and while I am not allowed yet to post some of the reviews that I've done (due to it being too early), I am going to share a couple each Tuesday, and will be doing special features for those books that I can't yet review come time to showcase their reviews. This blog is going to be short, and merely direct you to the reviews because I've got an update coming out as well with some give away winners in it.

Review: Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox by Eoin Colfer
Title: Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox
Author: Eoin Colfer
Rating: 4/5
I received a copy of this book from the publisher, Disney-Hyperion, via netgalley.com in exchange for an honest review. I thank the publisher for this opportunity.
Summary: Three years
later, Artemis returns and his mother has contracted a deadly disease, whose
only cure lies in the brain fluid of the African lemur, however they are
extinct, and have been for five years.
Thanks Artemis! Yup, it’s his fault that they are extinct. So, time to play with time, as Artemis has to
go back in time with the aid of his fairy friends and confront his most deadly
enemy, himself, to save the lemurs.
Review: The sixth book in the Artemis Fowl series, delivers yet again. Eoin Colfer has thrown so many twists and turns to what could have been a potentially simple, easy retrieval mission. We see a resurgence of the time-traveling demon from The Lost Colony, and he helps Artemis go back in time where he now must come face-to-face with his devious, Machiavellian younger self in an attempt to retrieve and save the African lemur.
But, something happens, and things as usual become infinitely more complicated when Artemis learns that he can no longer trust his memories of what happened all those years ago. Will Artemis be able to save his mother? To undo the damage his younger self caused by selling the African Lemur to the extinction cult?

Title: Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony

Rating: 4/5
I received a copy of this from the publisher, Disney-Hyperion, via netgalley.com for an honest review. My thanks to the publisher for this opportunity.
Summary: The fifth book in the Artemis Fowl series and another of my favorites. This series does not seem to ever disappoint me. Once again, Artemis will have to pair up with his old comrade, Captain Holly Short, to track down the missing demon and rescue him, before the time spell dissolves completely and the lost demon colony returns violently to Earth. That’s all I’m sayin’ in my summary.
Review: Alright, so we have the fairy folk who moved underground to keep their world safe and secret from humans right? Then we have the demons, who flat out refuse to join the fairy folk underground. Instead, these wonderful demonic creatures decide to move their whole island to another dimension. Yup! Demons got it good, lets hop dimensions to keep our secret world safe from humans! This will work. Failure on their part.
They are now stuck in Limbo! Such a wonderful place to be! Ain’t it? Especially when you are stuck there indefinitely…with nowhere else to go, right? No, something bad is bound to happen and it does of course, the spell weakened and now we are getting demons in present time – yup, always a good thing to have demons popping up in the present and causing demonic mischief and such!
Though, Artemis’ first attempt to capture one of the demons that come through is thwarted. Someone got their first, leaving our hero flabbergasted, because that demon was supposed to be “his.” Oh, and did I mention it is a 12 year old GIRL that keeps Artemis on his toes. She’s very pretty, and a French genius, her name is Minerva Paradizo.
Will Artemis and his friends be able to save the world from destruction (again)?
