Review: Aftermarket Afterlife by Seanan McGuire

I’m not sure I’ve ever reviewed a book from this series before, but that’s not because I don’t love it. In fact, it’s probably in my top 3 favorite series of all time. Seanan McGuire’s mind is as methodical and bloody as something from a Saw movie (I assume… I’m too chicken to watch those). […]

Review: The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett

There are only two small reasons why I’m not declaring this book my book of the year: 1) it’s January and 2) I technically read this last year. But if this volume doesn’t end up on a ton of ‘best of’ lists this year, then it’ll be a travesty. Here’s my summary of the book […]

Review: Capture the Sun by Jessie Mihalik

Space intrigue, thieving, hoverbike battles, enemies to lovers, corrupt governments, politics, petty revenge, blowing things up, and teleportation I whole-heartedly recommend this book and series. And author in general. I used to be like “HEA romances are boringzo because it’s all irritating couples drama that would be solved if they just talked to each other […]

Review: Conquer the Kingdom by Jennifer Estep

I regret that I had to hold this review due to the HarperCollins Strike, however, it seems that they’ve reached a tentative agreement with the union, and I feel badly that the author was caught in the middle of this, so I’m going to go ahead and allow this review to post. This books is […]

Review: Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Rayborn

This novel is a meal of a mystery wrapped in a thriller with a heavy spice of Female Rage. … And if you’re a woman Of A Certain Age… being made to feel useless… Who hasn’t wanted to respond to all of that by murdering the shit out of the people who make you feel that way?

Most Anticipated Books of 2015

A new year means a new round of “best of” and “most anticipated” lists. This year, there’s been some noise about those lists being (as usual) too large a percentage of the White and Male variety. So out of my own curiosity, I thought I’d look at my wishlist so far for the upcoming year and see […]

The (Late) Cover Reveal for Ministry Protocol

So this was supposed to go up yesterday, but I’ve spent every spare moment the last 24 hours bringing my entire network of websites back up from a catastrophic failure. Lucky me. That said, I promised this was going to go up, and it’s darn well going up! Please note giveaway is not hosted here. […]

Good Dilemmas

I have three ebooks all pre-ordered and ready to download to my Nook first thing in the morning (if Barnes & Noble is on the ball, that is). I thought I’d take a moment to share them with you, because I’m super excited about all of them. The first is a book I’ve been waiting […]

Magic Most Foul Giveaway

Annnd… Because I’m a huge dork who forgot to include it in the previous post. There is a giveaway attached to the lovely Leanna Renee Hieber’s guest post, sponsored by her Greatness and courtesy of her dear publisher, Sourcebooks Fire. Giveaway is for one (1) copy of Darker Still and is open to any human person on […]
