Herping is the observation of amphibians and reptiles for recreation or for the production of citizen science--the cold-blooded equivalent of birding. The Field Herping Guide: Finding Amphibians and Reptiles in the Wild is the first book to explore the fun and fascinating world of observing herpetofauna across North America. The natural world holds an amazing diversity of herps, some as close as our own backyards. This guidebook is geared toward new field herpers and uses proven methods from professional herpetologists Mike Pingleton and Joshua Holbrook.

The guide addresses basic questions new field herpers have about amphibians and reptiles: What do I need to know about their biology? Where do I look for them, and when? These topics are covered in a straightforward manner, with images, a glossary of essential terms, personal anecdotes, and informational vignettes that support the subject material.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

I LOVE this book so much!!!!!
Format: Kindle
WOW what a ride!!! To Bleed A Kingdom is Ella Dawes debut book and I am thoroughly impressed by her writing! She writes like a seasoned author already! I absolutely LOVE her writing style it’s fun easy to follow and very imaginative and expressive where a reader can actually FEEL what the characters are going through or have gone through. This world and the characters in it are so very relatable so real feeling like they could actually be my family and friends and enemies also lol The mystery surrounding Lena her friends or found family and their lives is not reveled wholly in this book we get pieces and I really loved that, normally I’m very impatient but with the way this world and all the characters are written it doesn’t become so much the main focus. We get a really solid feel for this world and all it’s going on and people in it. New friendships and love interests are formed it’s a very character driven story which I personally love!! Lena is beautifully broken and flawed but sooooo incredibly strong without the unnecessary stubbornness we come across in so many books and what a breath of fresh air that was to read! Darius is an Alpha male through and through with a LOT of emotional trauma but he loves and he loves hard even when he doesn’t really realize it himself. The side characters are phenomenal the dialogue is sooo good the banter is hilarious and the loyalty and love between them all is written beautifully! The spice is little but it’s amazing when it happens wink wink I don’t like cliffhangers especially when I’m not sure when the next book will be released I’ve been burned too many times but once I got started reading this I didn’t stop all day and late into the night so I’m going to have find my patience and wait and I am so very excited to see where Ella takes this story. Thank you for sharing this story with us can’t wait for more!!! I read this on KU
